GETTING STARTED
Getting started
Who does LST work with?
We mainly support overseas Shopify sellers and ecommerce businesses looking for sourcing and order fulfillment services from China.
Where is your head office?
Our head office is in Shenzhen, Guangdong, China. The full address is available on our Contact page.
Is there a minimum daily order volume?
The suitable starting requirements depend on the product and services. Share your order volume so we can confirm whether the proposed setup is a fit.
Do you publish a product catalog?
Start by sending product links, specifications or reference images. We discuss sourcing for your requirements rather than promise availability from a public catalog.
QUOTES & PAYMENT
Quotes & payment
What do you need for a quote?
Send a product link or specification, destination countries, expected order volume and any custom packaging or inspection requirements.
What is included in the price?
Your quote confirms the product and services included. Product, shipping, packaging, storage and other charges are identified as applicable.
Which payment methods do you accept?
The available payment method, currency, payment timing and any deposit requirements are confirmed directly before procurement.
How long is a quote valid?
Validity depends on the quote and the supplier or shipping conditions. Confirm the validity period before placing an order.
ORDERS & INVENTORY
Orders & inventory
How do we connect Shopify orders?
The available connection or import method is confirmed during onboarding. We also agree on product identifiers, order details and the tracking workflow.
How quickly are orders processed?
Processing arrangements are confirmed for your products and stock plan. Supplier lead times, stock availability and custom production can affect readiness.
Can I change an address or cancel an order?
Contact support as soon as possible. Whether a change is possible depends on the processing stage; an already-dispatched order cannot be assumed changeable.
Can you hold stock for my store?
We can discuss advance stock, replenishment and inventory handling. Ownership, storage charges and remaining stock arrangements must be agreed beforehand.
SOURCING & QUALITY
Sourcing & quality
Can I send an AliExpress or Shopify product link?
Yes. Detailed product links can help communicate the required item. Include variants, materials, dimensions and any differences you need.
Can I approve a sample before purchasing?
Discuss sample availability and approval requirements with us during sourcing. Lead times and charges are confirmed for the selected product.
What does a quality check include?
The checks are agreed for your product. Specifications, sample references, inspection scope and any extra testing should be confirmed in advance.
BRANDING & PACKAGING
Branding & packaging
Can you use my own brand packaging?
Share artwork, materials, dimensions and quantity requirements. We can discuss suitable production options and how packaging fits the order workflow.
Are custom packaging minimums required?
Custom production may have minimum quantities depending on materials and production method. The applicable quantities are confirmed in your quote.
Can you add inserts or product labels?
We can discuss inserts, labels and other brand components. Artwork approval, costs and production lead times are agreed before production.
SHIPPING & TRACKING
Shipping & tracking
Which countries can you ship to?
Available destinations depend on the product and route. Send the countries and product details you need covered so we can review suitable options.
How long does delivery take?
Your quote provides an estimated transit range for the route. Actual delivery can vary due to customs, carrier operations, destination and seasonal demand.
Will I receive tracking information?
Tracking availability and how it is shared are confirmed for the selected route and order workflow.
Can you ship liquids or batteries?
Special contents require product and route review. Please send complete details before purchasing stock or taking orders.
Who pays customs duties or taxes?
Duties, taxes, documentation and destination-related charges should be clarified for your route before shipment.

How do I contact your team?
Use info@lstdrop.com for product quotes and cooperation enquiries, and Support@lstdrop.com for existing order support.
What should I send for an order problem?
Send the order reference, issue description and relevant photos or tracking information so the team can review the case.
