Practical notes for buyers
Shops that receive a short briefing on payment and credit terms convert noticeably better than shops that only receive stock.
Documentation is not paperwork for its own sake; on payment and credit terms it is the difference between a clean clearance and a delayed one.
Checklist
- Request batch photographs and a packing list prior to shipment.
- Retain one sealed sample carton from every batch for reference.
- Record the arrival condition with photographs on the day of delivery.
- Confirm the exact configuration in writing before the deposit is paid.
- Verify that artwork matches the approved compliance template.
- Agree in advance who pays for return freight on a defect claim.

Freight terms should be named explicitly, because an unclear incoterm is the fastest way to lose a relationship.
Lead times are a function of component availability as much as factory capacity, so buffers should reflect both.

| Pallet (946 units) | Tier 2 | 14-21 days |
