Specification checklist
List supported device models, connector standards, cable length, packaging and colour variants separately.
Inspection questions
Check fit against a reference device and confirm the agreed quantity for each variant. Request power testing where relevant.
Transport considerations
Small items can still incur volumetric charges. Confirm packed carton dimensions and any battery restrictions.
Look beyond the product price.
Confirm unit price, packaging, sample and inspection charges, freight, duties and taxes, and local delivery. Quantity, packed dimensions, material and required documentation can change the total. There is no universal duty rate or delivery promise.
