FoshanBuild sample file - buyer checklist

This is a public planning checklist for overseas furniture and building-material sourcing.
It is not legal, tax, customs, engineering, or local compliance advice.

First useful reply
1. Confirm whether the order size, timeline, country, product mix, and installation need fit China sourcing.
2. List missing drawings, dimensions, finishes, current quotes, delivery details, and local installer responsibility.
3. Flag product categories that may create certification, breakage, wrong-finish, or local installation risk.
4. Recommend one next step: schedule build, quote review, samples, factory comparison, or local sourcing.

Before deposit
1. Keep one room-by-room item schedule for the confirmed scope.
2. Record product photos, dimensions, materials, finishes, quantity, room tags, and approval status.
3. Separate EXW, FOB, CIF, DDP, packing, inland trucking, freight, tax, local delivery, and installation guidance.
4. Confirm samples, drawings, colors, hardware, glass, stone, fabric, and accessories where needed.
5. Confirm payment milestone, balance-payment proof, replacement responsibility, and production timeline.
6. Confirm packing method, fragile handling, labels, package count, gross weight, and CBM estimate.

Before balance payment
1. Review production photos, size checks, surface checks, hardware, accessories, and issue list.
2. Require packing photos with project code, room tag, item code, and labels visible.
3. Record missing items, wrong finish, damaged surfaces, unclear labels, or supplier replacement promises.
4. Do not treat supplier promises as complete until the issue list is updated.

Before shipment handoff
1. Confirm packing list, package count, CBM, gross weight, crate dimensions, and loading order.
2. Keep container loading photos and note any item not loaded.
3. Prepare delivery and installation handover notes for the local team.
4. Confirm which issues belong to supplier, buyer, forwarder, local installer, engineer, or customs broker.
