Wholesale Quotation Checklist: Supplier RFQ Template for Buyers
A useful RFQ—request for quotation—states the product, quantity, requirements, destination and timing. Ask the supplier to identify what is included and what still needs confirmation.

Send a shared reference
Use the same specification, quantity and destination when requesting offers.

A supplier RFQ (request for quotation) helps you compare the same purchase requirements across offers. Start with the product or range, pieces, destination and target date; write “not sure yet” rather than inventing details. For random mixed bags, say that you understand styles and colors cannot be selected. Use the template below as your first message, then ask for missing information in the written quote. A quotation request does not reserve stock, place an order or authorize payment.

Turn a vague question into a useful brief
- 01
Too little context
“Please send your best bag price.” The range, quantity and delivery needs are still unknown.
- 02
A clearer example
Hello Yumiao, please quote [quantity in pieces] of [range / not sure yet] for [destination country, city and postal code].

Confirm
Resolve differences before agreeing or paying.
After the written quote is agreed, Yumiao sends order-specific payment instructions. Confirm the order reference, amount, currency and recipient against that order. Full payment must be received before dispatch. Keep the quotation and order records; an inquiry or payment-link click alone does not confirm an order or receipt of funds.
Buyer questions
Must I know the shipping method before asking?
No. Give the cargo and destination details and ask what sea or air options are available for your order.
Does completing the website form place an order?
No. The form prepares a WhatsApp inquiry for you to review and send. The quotation and order are confirmed through a direct conversation.
