Supplier confidence
source comparison, proof file and sample logic should point in the same direction.
sourcing checklist
This page focuses on a sourcing checklist for comparing links, supplier proof, sample logic, packaging and parcel readiness. It is written for buyers who want the next click to support a real purchase decision with clearer product, QC and parcel context.
Use these checks before you pay, request QC help or release a parcel.
| Checkpoint | Why it matters | Buyer action |
|---|---|---|
| source comparison | Use source comparison to decide whether the seller is worth testing. | Compare source comparison with proof file and sample logic before submitting the order. |
| proof file | The proof file often changes the real cost and quantity decision. | Write the expected proof file into your buyer note. |
| sample logic | Check sample logic when the order depends on quality, timing or repeat supply. | Do not scale the order until sample logic looks stable. |
| parcel readiness | Save parcel readiness so you can explain the request clearly if the agent needs confirmation. | Use buyer note and order handoff as the final go/no-go checks. |
Use this field note area to turn the page into a clear buying, QC or parcel checklist before opening the next product link.
If you are comparing items now, treat source comparison as the first checkpoint. Then verify proof file, save notes about sample logic, and avoid checkout until parcel readiness and buyer note are clear. This keeps the page useful for buying, QC review and parcel planning.
source comparison, proof file and sample logic should point in the same direction.
Use parcel readiness before moving from a small test to a larger quantity.
buyer note and order handoff make agent instructions clearer.
These mistakes waste time and can turn a useful product find into a weak order.
Open the live source page and confirm source comparison directly. If the page, seller note or warehouse evidence does not match, do not treat the order as ready.
proof file can change the final buyer decision because it affects proof, quantity, shipping cost or the confidence needed before payment.
Ask for help when sample logic is not visible enough in product details, supplier messages or warehouse QC photos.
Write a short buyer note for parcel readiness, including the expected option, photo need, packaging request or route concern.
Compare another product or supplier before paying. A small issue around buyer note can become expensive after international shipping.
Use order handoff as the final confirmation point before opening the product category, submitting the order or releasing a parcel.
