    Sourcing from China can be a real hassle sometimes. Let's create a thread where we share tips on finding quality suppliers and manufacturers in China. I'll start with a couple of tips:

    1. Search China Vista (China's Yellow Pages) to make sure the supplier is a registered company.

    2. Search our site Tradesparency.com to find user-reviews of suppliers. We started Tradesparency to help small business owners find trusted suppliers and manufacturers.

    What is your tip?

    Tradesparency.com is a site where anybody can rate and review a supplier from anywhere in the world. It is basically "Yelp for B2B".
