Hi. I am currently learning how to import products, so that I can start an e-commerce. I found a promising manufacturer, but to be sure I'm dealing with a manufacturer and not a wholesaler, I decided to read Alibaba's report (they are supposed to be certified as verified factory).
The report give detailed informations about their manufacturing process, but it only talks about metal keychain and other pressed metal accessories, which is not the product I want to buy from them. Also, the person I can contact for orders on their Alibaba page is not the same person listed on the report.
All this tells me it's a wholesaler disguised as a factory, but I may be wrong. I'm still very much a noob at this.
That's why I'm asking for your opinion. Should I look somewhere else? Or am I paranoid?
Thanks!
