Importing experiences

[winton50]

Does anybody have any experience of importing especially from China?

I am looking at importing some goods in the next few months and wondered if anyone has any tips or common mistakes to avoid

I would appreciate this kind of information too, because I've just started cooperating with the Chinese VoIP company.

VAT lady was fine.

I took the advice about giving her a cup of tea and it went down very well!
