How to Request a Quote: Send Your Cart, Get Wholesale Pricing, Pay by Invoice

Request a Quote lets wholesalers and dealers send us a full shopping cart and get back a confirmed price, shipping cost and any volume discount, before paying anything. This guide walks through every step, from the cart to the package at your door. It takes about two minutes to read.

Who it is for: wholesalers and dealers. Retail customers and small one-off orders should use Checkout on the cart page as usual. Site prices are already wholesale prices and there is no minimum order. Larger orders can ask for a lower price through a quote.

The whole process at a glance

Step 1. Log in and fill your cart

Request a Quote needs a free ChinesePartsPro account, so you can follow your quote online. Log in or create an account. Your cart is kept while you do this.

Then add parts the normal way. Tap Add to cart on any product or collection page. The product stays on the page and a green box shows how many are in your cart. Use the - and + buttons there to change the quantity, Remove to take it out, or View cart to go to your cart at any time. More detail: Shop Faster: Add Parts to Your Cart Without Leaving the Page.

Step 2. Tap Request a Quote on the cart page

On the cart page, under the Checkout buttons, you will find a separate block for wholesalers and dealers.

A short form opens. Only two fields are required.

Tap Submit quote request. You will see a confirmation with your quote number and the status Pending review. Your cart is cleared, and nothing is charged.

Step 3. Follow your quote in My Account

Every request is saved in My Account, in the same Order History list as your normal orders. Quotes are marked with an orange label so you can tell them apart. You can also tap View details on a quote to open the full list.

Illustration only. Your screen shows your own parts and numbers. Quotes with more than 5 items show the first 5 with a Show all items link.

The label on each quote tells you where it is:

Step 4. Read your quote: prices, discounts and shipping

We may change quantities, apply a volume discount or add a shipping charge, depending on weight, destination and the carrier. When a discount applies, you see all of it:

• The original price is crossed out, with the new price next to it.
• Save shows what you save on that line.
• Discount applied shows the total savings on the quote.

Tip: orders that reach 25 KG get much lower express shipping rates, and orders of 100 KG or more can use free economy sea freight. The weight is shown on each product page and in your cart, so you can plan the order before you send it.

Step 5. Pay

When your quote is ready you receive an email with the invoice. You can pay in either of two ways:

1. Tap the pay link in the invoice email.
2. Log in, open My Account, find the quote marked Quote sent: awaiting payment and tap Pay now.

We accept credit and debit cards, bank transfer (wire), and Shop Pay, Apple Pay and Google Pay. If you want to change something before you pay, such as a quantity or the shipping method, reply to the email and we will update the invoice for you.

Step 6. Shipping and tracking

• Orders ship 3-5 business days after payment.
• Express shipping with DHL, UPS or FedEx takes about 3-7 days to the US after dispatch.
• When your parcel is handed to the carrier, we email you the carrier name and tracking number. The order in My Account changes to Fulfilled.

Step 7. Order the same parts again

Every order and quote in Order History has two buttons at the bottom: Reorder selected and Reorder all. Tick the items you want, or use Select all, and the parts go straight into your cart with the same quantities. Then send it as a new quote request. Out-of-stock items are skipped and you are told which ones.

Common questions

Do I pay when I submit the request?
No. Nothing is charged until you receive the invoice and choose to pay it.

Can I submit without an account?
No. An account lets you follow your quote and pay from your account. Registering is free and takes a minute.

Where did my cart go?
Your cart is cleared after you submit, because the items are now in your quote. You can see them in My Account.

What if the price is not what I expected?
Reply to the quote email with your target price and quantity. Larger orders can ask for a lower price.

I am a retail customer. Can I use this?
Request a Quote is for wholesalers and dealers. Please use Checkout for regular purchases.

Something looks wrong, or a part arrived defective?
Report defective or wrong items within 7 days of delivery. You choose a replacement or a refund, and we cover the reshipping freight. See our Shipping & Returns page for details.
