Sampling And Fit Approval
More than one sample round is normal, and it is the cheapest place to find a problem.
Sample fee is about USD 5 per piece with courier around USD 25 to 35 by FedEx on a 3 to 5 day service, and the sample charge is returned against a bulk order.
Samples are made to your style, size, structure and material. Expect at least two rounds before a final sample is signed off.
