Sourcing question

One seller’s shipping cost is £100, but another seller is charging £300 for the same products. Can I negotiate the shipping price with them? And possibly suggest using the same shipping company that only charges £100 instead of £300?

I think you can look for a professional freight forwarder to handle this for you, and you can transport all your goods together, which will be more convenient. If you’re interested, I can help you understand how to do it.

Yes, you can definitely try to negotiate the shipping cost with the seller who’s charging £300. Politely point out that you’ve seen the same products shipped for only £100 by another seller and ask if they can match that rate. You can also suggest using the same shipping company or method as the cheaper one, especially if you know it’s reliable. Most sellers are open to adjusting if they think it will help close the sale, especially in competitive markets.

Order from the supplier with £100 shipping cost.

On Alibaba, you will often find multiple companies, each of them charging a different shipping cost. Just order from the cheapest one, through Trade assurance.

Check the reviews on their website like Alibaba or something else.

The lowest price is not your first option.

Because shipping services really pay attention to after-sales services.

You get what you pay for. If the price is so different, the service must be different. It is best to check carefully. For example, would you dare to buy a $10/g Gold Bracelet?
