Converting Local Factory Quotes
When dealing with domestic Chinese wholesalers (via 1688.com) or direct manufacturers handling their own export, you may receive quotes in CNY (RMB) rather than USD.
Accurately converting this into your landed USD cost prevents severe miscalculations. Always factor in the FX margin (the spread between the mid-market rate and the bank rate), which can add 2% to the true cost of acquiring the currency.
Tips for China Importers
- Never compare suppliers by FOB price alone. A supplier $0.50 cheaper on FOB can easily be more expensive once freight, duty, and compliance differences are factored in. Always compare landed cost.
- Include platform fees in your landed cost model. Amazon FBA referral + fulfillment fees total 30–40% of your selling price. If that's your channel, it must be in your cost calculation from day one.
- Add a 15% cost contingency for your first import. First-time importers consistently underestimate costs — unexpected charges like detention fees, inspection costs, or currency moves routinely add 10–20%.
- Calculate break-even units before ordering. Know exactly how many units you must sell to cover your landed cost and fixed overheads. If break-even is more than 60% of your order, the risk is too high.
- Recalculate on every reorder. Freight rates, duty rates, and supplier prices all change. A cost model from 6 months ago can be meaningfully wrong. Always recalculate before committing to a new order.
