    it's fine, alibaba just helps you find factories and can't help with payment.
    just need to stay sharp when doing business, as you would with any small company you're dealing with internationally. language isn't too much of a problem, but just don't leave anything to chance.

    eg if your sample has sample written on it, you will probably get 10,000 final products with sample written on it.

    If it's your first time to outsource to china, stay small. build a relationship with the factory. if your job is big enough, do a factory visit. if not for any reason other than it will blow your mind to see where all the shit you buy every day actually comes from.

    Or alternatively, send me an email, i'll sort it out for you ;)
