Whether you want to purchase wholesale prom dresses for your business or select a gorgeous prom dress for yourself, China is definitely the best place to buy from. Wanna know my reasons? Read on to get the details.
China’s apparel manufacturing capacity is the biggest in the world, which ensures you that you can always get the prom dresses of any style at any time. There are a number of apparel manufacturing bases locating in some famous Chinese cities like Hangzhou in Zhejiang Province, Suzhou in Jiangsu Province, Jinjiang in Fujian Province, Shenzhen, Humen and Dongguan in Guangdong. The quality of the myriad of prom dresses can vary significantly from each other. Normally, the price is the hint indicating the quality level of the prom dresses, but not always. You should beware of scammers. So it is important to buy from a trustworthy marketplace or factory. In China, the best known prom dresses export websites are: Alibaba.com, Lightinthebox.com and DHgate.com.
Alibaba.com: Most of its items do not include prices on their descriptions—Alibaba’s core business is neither to sell items itself, nor to serve the entire transaction process between suppliers and buyers, but to provide product and supplier information to global buyers. So you need to negotiate the price and details with the specific suppliers who offer the prom dresses you are interested. Also, you should note that Alibaba focuses on big quantity orders instead of small orders. For some items, the minimum order quantity (MOQ) can be as high as 1000 pieces. Of course, as the general rule goes, the bigger the order, the lower the price you can get. Alibaba does have a special channel offering small orders: Aliexpress, but the channel is still young.

Lightinthebox.com: Putting aside prices, if you just want an easy, smooth transaction experience for buying prom dresses from China, I recommend you to consider Lightinthebox. Unlike Alibaba, Lightinthebox sets prices for items, sells items, ships out items itself and handles other transaction issues—the wholesale website is in effect a cross-border online supplier engaging in the whole transaction process. Lightinthebox fills up its wholesale inventory by sourcing quality and hot selling items from a selection of China-based factories or manufacturers. Each item listed on Lightinthebox.com goes through a double-verification procedure: Lightinthebox confirms the quality of the item both when the item is purchased from the supplier and when it is shipped out to the buyer.
I always believe that, the biggest benefit of buying prom dresses from Lightinthebox is: compared with other online China wholesale websites, quality is best guaranteed on Lightinthebox. Also, the China wholesale website provides customization service on prom dresses—you can specify the specifications of the prom dress when placing the order and they will ships you the custom-made dress! And one more good thing is: Lightinthebox targets at small orders and practically most of the items offered there are not required with a minimum order quantity. Actually one-piece order is very common to Lightinthebox and it has developed a rather big base of individual customers who purchase items not for business but for their own use.

DHgate.com: DHgate is neither a trading platform offering information service like Alibaba, nor an online store selling items itself like Lightinthebox. Instead, it integrates the advantages of the two e-commerce models by offering transaction service for Chinese sellers and global buyers. In essence, DHgate acts as a third party to protect the interests of both the sellers and the buyers. On the one hand, DHgate verifies the qualifications of sellers on registration based on a strict set of standards and inspects both the items and sellers listed on the website regularly; on the other hand, DHgate uses its escrow service to ensure transaction safety between sellers and buyers. That is, when making the payment for an order, the payment does not go directly to the seller’s account, but goes to DHgate’s company account. And DHgate will not release the payment to the seller until the buyer confirms that the item has arrived and he/she is satisfied with the purchase. In the case that a dispute occurs, DHgate will help both sides solve the problem. When buying on DHgate, you don’t need to worry about the issue of payment and transaction safety as DHgate is there to inspect the whole process.

The most exciting thing of buying wholesale prom dresses from DHgate is: you can make the best choice by comparing styles, prices and services from the great variety of sellers and products listed there. A similar style of prom dress can be offered by a list of different sellers who offer different prices, services and additional values for it. If patient enough, you will be able to get the best prom dress deals with the least money. Besides, DHgate targets small and medium-sized buyers and minimum order quantity is as low is 1 item. Last but not least, DHgate is the biggest client of PayPal in the Asian-Pacific area and the large partner of famous carriers like UPS—both payment fees and shipping fees are reduced to the minimum based on the partnerships. I guess that is why we often see free shipping deals on DHgate.
However, as DHgate does not check the item or the package before it is sent to the customer, the quality of the purchase order cannot be guaranteed. It all depends on whether the seller you trade with is honest or not. Otherwise, though DHgate has an escrow service to help solve the dispute between sellers and buyers, once you have to submit a dispute, you may have to wait a long time for the frustrating and time-consuming handling.
