- Request batch photographs and a packing list prior to shipment.

Payment history is the single most reliable route to better terms, more than total annual volume.
Currency movement over a ninety day cycle can outweigh the difference between two competing quotations.

Frequently asked questions
Should Autopod S be discounted to launch?
A short introductory offer works; repeated hardware discounting damages the perceived value of the range.
What happens if a batch fails inspection?
The agreed procedure normally covers replacement of affected units or credit against the next order, documented before shipment.
Do you support long term supply agreements?
Yes, rolling agreements with defined review points work better for both sides than rigid annual commitments.
Is documentation provided for customs?
Commercial invoice, packing list and the relevant certificates are supplied; the importer's broker handles the declaration.
Final word
The buyers who do this well are not luckier; they are simply more consistent about the basics.
