Hi Guys,
I want to travel to china to buy some stock polo. I plan to go to guangzhou and i want to buy about 6,000 pieces of polo. That is about 2 bells. I know they will be space in one container after it is placed there. Does anyone have any experience about shipping?

Hi Bigmodo,

Depending on whether you choose air freight or sea freight will be a determining factor when calculating your shipping costs. Sea freight will likely be much cheaper but will also take longer. International air freight can be quite expensive but is sometimes necessary depending on your time to market commitments.

Please check out this article from Global Sources to know more about the costs (shipping and other fees)  involved with importing from China.
