Question 1

How do I distinguish a textile listing from a digital device in the search results?

Accepted Answer

Check the sub-category tag next to the listing title. Garment & Fashion Accessories and Suitcases, Briefcases & Bags contain physical materials like denim or leather. Digital, Analog Watches & Clocks and gems contain electronic components or minerals. A listing for Slim Fit Lightweight Jeans In Repreve Denim belongs to textiles, while an Instax Mini Liplay belongs to electronics. Misidentifying the branch leads to requesting incorrect compliance documents for the wrong product type.

Question 2

What material specification must I verify for Repreve denim before requesting a quote?

Accepted Answer

Repreve is a branded recycled fiber, so you must confirm the exact percentage of recycled polyester in the blend and the weave structure. Sellers often list the brand name without specifying the weight or stretch properties. Ask for the fabric GSM and the elastane content if the jeans are stretch fit. Without these details, you cannot calculate the correct weight for shipping or verify the durability of the garment.

Question 3

Why do quotes for Instax Mini Liplay vary so much in price?

Accepted Answer

Price variations usually stem from the housing material finish, battery type, and included accessories. Some listings may include the camera body only, while others bundle printing paper and cases. Verify if the device is new or refurbished, and check the warranty terms provided by the manufacturer. The Blush Gold finish may also have different stock levels affecting the unit price. Always ask for a line-item breakdown to compare apples to apples.

Question 4

What packing standard applies to Gems & Jewellery versus Garment & Fashion Accessories?

Accepted Answer

Gems & Jewellery require individual anti-tarnish bags, rigid boxes, and detailed assay certificates for each piece. Garment & Fashion Accessories are packed in polybags or cartons with size runs and barcodes. Suitcases, Briefcases & Bags require corner protection and individual shrink wrapping. Using the wrong packing standard can damage goods during transit or cause customs delays due to incorrect declaration of contents. Specify the packing method in your enquiry.

Question 5

What documentation is required for Cosmetics Products exported from Hong Kong?

Accepted Answer

Cosmetics Products require a Certificate of Free Sale, ingredient lists in English, and safety data sheets. The listing must specify the batch number and expiry date for each SKU. Unlike garments or electronics, cosmetics are subject to strict chemical regulations in the destination market. Ensure the seller provides the full ingredient breakdown, including percentages, to verify compliance with your local health authority standards.

Question 6

How does the movement type affect the specification for Digital, Analog Watches & Clocks?

Accepted Answer

The movement type determines the accuracy, battery life, and maintenance requirements of the watch. Quartz movements are common for digital devices, while mechanical movements require specific winding instructions. Verify if the movement is Japanese, Swiss, or generic, as this impacts the price and reliability. The listing should state the movement model number. Without this detail, you cannot assess the long-term serviceability of the timepiece.

Question 7

What finish specification should I request for metal jewelry to ensure colorfastness?

Accepted Answer

Request the specific plating thickness and the base metal used, such as brass or stainless steel. Gold plating thickness is measured in microns, and the listing should state this value. Verify if the finish is PVD coated or electroplated, as this affects durability and resistance to tarnishing. Ask for a salt spray test report if the jewelry will be exposed to humid environments. This ensures the color will not fade during shipping or storage.
