Have you imported product (commercial quantities) before? You're familiar with the paperwork, customs broker, etc.. ?
Maybe you can team up with NemoPowerTools or work a deal with him?

Topic: Going to China for a Bulk Purchase, does this makes sense? (Read 360 times)
Just like everyone, i am sick of watching Bitcoin go up up up, while Bitmain hold my money and wants 2 month to ship a new S9. We also know the Jan batch might not get shipped in Jan and who knows by then BTC is over $11,000. Next logical step is to pay more and get it right away, but the ones that actually dont' look like scam are selling for over $3500 on ebay. Infact, anything under $3000 seems shady, for example this one guy says i am using it to test it for few days and i ordered one, next thing i know he runs his own farm and sell them after running for over 8 months in a newly printed reciept and import stamp on bitmain box.
So, i am considering flying to china and actually looking at the product myself, shipping it to US myself right away. Based on some 200 Resellers i could find online in Shenzhen, it looks i can get the price for a brand new S9 in hand stock with 6 months manufacturer warranty down to around $2800 with PSU for the top model (14 TH/s). There are few ways i can do this. I can invest my own money and buy 50 of them, list them on ebay and easily make $600 or so per machine, perhaps more. I could also do a group buy and get the price down even further. I dont' know.. Thinking out loud. Any suggestions? Anyone want to work together? I don't want you to trust me or anything, just looking to partner with good people for good business.
