For buyers sourcing directly from China
Looking for a China sourcing agent? An independent check may be all you need.
Find suppliers through platforms, search, AI, trade shows, communities, or referrals. If you work with suppliers directly, CSC can check the evidence before you pay, approve a sample, or place a first order.
You keep the supplier relationship, purchasing control, and final decision.
You may not need a sourcing agent yet—or at all.
If you can find and communicate with suppliers yourself, keep control of the buying process. CSC adds the independent check you need before payment, sample approval, or a first order.
CSC adds clarity
- Cross-check supplier and transaction evidence
- Identify missing, conflicting, or unproven information
- Review the evidence behind the next commitment
- Give you a clear report and practical recommendation
When a full-service agent becomes relevant: A full-service sourcing agent becomes relevant when you want someone else to take over ongoing supplier search, communication, production coordination, or logistics. That is a different job—not the default starting point for buyers who can manage suppliers directly.
Find anywhere. Check the evidence before you commit.
CSC starts after you have evidence connected to a real buying decision.
Platforms, search, AI, trade shows, communities, or referrals.
Communicate with suppliers and compare the options yourself.
Supplier links, quotes, a pro forma invoice (PI), payment requests, messages, or a sample.
See what matches, what needs proof, and the recommended next step.
Two checks for two decision points.
The $99 and $199 services review different evidence. One is not an upgrade from the other.
$99
Supplier & First-Order Readiness Review
A desktop review of the supplier and first-order evidence you submit, including the quote, pro forma invoice, payment request, requirements, and relevant messages.
- Cross-check submitted identity and order details against available public traces
- Identify matches, gaps, conflicts, and unproven points
- What matches, what needs proof, and the recommended next step
$199
Local Sample Reality Check
A local review after a supplier sample reaches CSC's China receiving location and is identified against your intake.
- After intake and payment are matched, CSC emails the China receiving details
- You give the China receiving details to the supplier and arrange shipment. CSC reviews the sample only after it is received and identified.
- Receive photos, a short video, practical observations, and a Ship / Revise / Compare / Stop report
See what the report actually gives you.
Real sample evidence becomes documented observations, clear limitations, and a recommended next step—not a promise about future production.
MATCHESVisible construction and submitted product claim can be compared.
CHECK NEXTProduction packaging and batch details still need supplier confirmation.
NOT PROVENA reviewed sample does not establish future bulk-order quality.
Clear findings, clear limits.
CSC explains what the reviewed evidence supports and what remains unresolved. It does not provide supplier search or recommendations, supplier contact or negotiation, production follow-up, formal audits or inspections, lab testing, logistics, forwarding, customs, warehousing, or legal and compliance advice. A check cannot guarantee future supplier performance, quality, or delivery.
