Checklist
- Agree in advance who pays for return freight on a defect claim.
- Request batch photographs and a packing list prior to shipment.
- Record the arrival condition with photographs on the day of delivery.
- Confirm the exact configuration in writing before the deposit is paid.
- Log sell through by account for the first eight weeks.
- Check carton quantities against the commercial invoice line by line.
Commercial terms
Volume commitments work best when they are structured as a rolling target rather than a single fixed number.
Freight terms should be named explicitly, because an unclear incoterm is the fastest way to lose a relationship.
| Volume tier | Indicative unit level | Lead time |
|---|---|---|
| Carton (107 units) | Tier 1 | 30-45 days |
| Pallet (1415 units) | Tier 2 | 30-45 days |
| Container (7146 units) | Tier 3 | 30-45 days |
Frequently asked questions
Should Prime 5 be discounted to launch?
A short introductory offer works; repeated hardware discounting damages the perceived value of the range.
How quickly can a repeat order be produced?
For established configurations production typically runs two to four weeks, with transit on top depending on the chosen method.
What happens if a batch fails inspection?
The agreed procedure normally covers replacement of affected units or credit against the next order, documented before shipment.
Can several models be mixed in one shipment?
Yes, mixing models and flavours within a carton or pallet is common and usually helps first time buyers test demand.
Final word
Start with one change, measure it over a quarter, then decide whether it deserves to become policy.
