We hear rumblings about some product we purchase from China being below expectations or contain toxins and as a corollary, small traders advise not to purchase from China. Imagine a larger picture where purchase from China is an everyday activity for global sourcing officers as a part of multinational purchasing risk free and purchase from China required quality products and without payment hassles.
There were times when US retailers were auditing the products they purchase from China to ensure regulations with respect to product ingredients/contents. Driven by global sourcing, the hyperactivity in US manufacturing can’t just be attributed to low wages without sustained considerations on quality issues about anything they purchase from China.
-Safety Tips Global Sourcing and Import/Export in E-Commerce
The following points help you avoid frauds in ecommerce when online shopping or global sourcing.
1. Know the import/export trader and product to the maximum. No matter what, antecedents matter much, especially as you can’t see the seller. Put the power of internet to best use to discover the traders’ global sourcing or import/export history before engaging in international trade or import/export with him
2. Bulk import/export or just global sourcing, setup refund/withdrawal policies with great clarity. If you are buying retail online study the sellers warrantee/refund policy. This way, you know what can go wrong in an international trade
3. International e-commerce safety rests much on trading account information and passwords. Weaker passwords will get hacked and mindlessly disclosed information leaves in the lurch.
4. Import/export, international trade site and consumers must ensure whether the website uses SSL, a security technology and certified by a licensed agency like VeriSign or Thawte. Sites with SSL will start with "https" ('s' indicates security) instead of the usual "http" and an icon of a closed lock appears on the status bar.
5. If the offer is too good to believe, forget global sourcing or buy some retail thing there. True, e-commerce can afford cheap sales but too much of discount is an alarm sign
