In the begining of Sep, we received a huge order inquiry, ninetine thousand pcs.
As sales i am happy to quote the buyer.
But finally we failed, the buyer told me our price too high for them.
I am confused, as factory, we calculate all details and leave little profit, why still say our quote higher a lot?
Until i come to one of our print supplier and see the batch order drop stitch material, i know why.
Other supplier use thinner drop stitch material! The normal single layer drop stitch thickness is 1.35mm, in order to save cost, they customzied 1mm thickness drop stitch material.
That is risky for end customer using, becasue 1mm thickness material can not holding high pressure, more easy explosion.
Bad money is driving out good money. Especially on big quantity order competition.
Most customer don't know these, they only care about price, so you can see on market a lot of SUP board set price under 65USD for big quantity order....
What we can do is always using correct material, keep quality and service, grow together with our customers.
