About the Book
A low factory price can turn into an expensive mistake. Before you pay your first supplier, learn what can go wrong—and what to check first.
Damian Jurski's practical guide covers 37 common mistakes in choosing products and suppliers, writing specifications, arranging payments, checking compliance, organising shipping and customs clearance, and preparing for after-sales service.
Inside: a full-cost example, a STOP / CAUTION / GO checklist, a blank cost worksheet, and ready-to-use supplier messages in English.
This is the English translation of the Polish guide Nie importuj z Chin, dopóki tego nie przeczytasz. Examples and regulatory references concern importing into Poland and the EU; monetary examples remain in PLN.
The book is educational. It does not replace product-specific professional advice. The original text, English translation and cover artwork were created using AI.
