Only thing now I import from China is a few plastic items. Be careful though with China and do your research on who you are dealing. Lots of people who are willing to sell small lots of what you see on alibaba requiring very large orders, don't really have anything and they will try to rip you off, adding delays, saying the factory is behind etc.

Its not worth the headache IMO because you might end up with counterfeit and sub-standard shit.

You are better off dealing with the official distributor in your country for the items you want to sell. Focus more on having good customer service or whatever. My experience is if people are impressed with your service and fast shipping or whatever they will pay slightly more.

I had, by chance, a post office open up right next door to me. Now, any order comes in and it is at the post office and in the system 10 minutes later. Customers go crazy for this.
