Eliminate Amazon Rejections, High Prep Costs, and Defect Losses
Chinese factories rarely understand Amazon's strict inbound regulations, while 3rd-party US/EU prep centers charge exorbitant fees. Tommysourcing handles everything in China before shipment at a fraction of the cost.
FBA Inbound Rejections
Incorrect barcode placement, unscannable FNSKUs, missing warning labels, or overweight cartons lead to severe inbound penalties and delayed check-ins.
Expensive Local Prep Centers
Shipping blind to destination-country 3PLs doubles your handling fees, carton handling costs, labor rates ($2-$5/unit), and slows turnaround times.
Negative Reviews from Defects
Defective batches shipped directly into FBA ruin listing ratings and account health with no way to intercept bad inventory once distributed.

Direct Factory Sourcing vs. Tommysourcing FBA Solution
See why professional Amazon 7-figure sellers and brands rely on local China management instead of direct factory risks.
| Feature / Stage | Direct Factory / Standard Freight | Tommysourcing FBA Solution |
|---|---|---|
| FBA Prep & Labeling | Factory often uses wrong labels, wrong placement, or misses polybag suffocation warnings. | 100% compliant thermal FNSKU labels, 2D barcodes, and optical verification scans. |
| Quality Assurance | No third-party check. Defective goods shipped directly to Amazon, sparking bad reviews. | AQL 2.5 on-site factory audit & pre-shipment defect sorting before final payment. |
| Multi-Factory Bundles | Impossible to coordinate without costly overseas 3PL repacking centers. | Consolidate multiple Chinese factories into custom bundles, blister packs, and kits. |
| Customs & Duties | Buyer must act as IOR (Importer of Record), navigate customs bonds, and manage tariff disputes. | Complete DDP delivery with all duties, customs clearance, and port drayage included. |
| Storage & Cash Flow | Forced to dump entire order into Amazon, incurring high peak storage fees and IPI drops. | Free 30-day staging storage in Suzhou with on-demand split replenishment to FBA. |
