MOQ and lead time depend on stock, material, colour, packaging, and whether the item is a repeat style or a new sample.
MOQ is not one number
The minimum order quantity can change by product type, colour, stock status, and packaging requirement. A stock item may be easier to test. A custom colour, logo, or new mould usually requires more commitment.
Quality checks that matter
For low-cost accessories, simple checks prevent most disputes.
- Match item number, colour, and quantity against the purchase order.
- Check plating tone and visible surface defects.
- Check pins, clasps, rings, and glue points.
- Confirm packaging before shipment.
- Keep photos of sample and packed goods.
