Buyer notes
Common mistakes we see when US buyers import vials
By Yunhon Export Desk �� Updated Aug 11, 2026
1. Comparing EXW to DDP as if they were the same number. They��re not. Land the cost or stop comparing.
2. Approving artwork by phone screenshot. Then discovering the barcode won��t scan. Physical or proper soft-proof discipline beats a Slack thumbs-up.
3. Skipping samples because ��we��re in a hurry.�� Hurry is how you learn about closure feel after 10,000 units are on the water.
4. Giving a city name instead of a dock appointment reality. Receiving windows, liftgate needs, and site contacts belong in the quote request.
5. Treating certificates as a homepage badge. Ask for current files and lot paperwork. File them. Your auditor will.
None of this is exotic. It��s the difference between a quiet receiving day and a week of email archaeology. If you want a boring shipment, start with a clear sample request on our form.
