Low MOQ Toy Wholesale from China — One Carton per Model
Direct from Chinese factories in Yiwu, Shantou and Guangzhou — open prices, one-carton minimum.
Open prices per unit and per carton. No registration, no sales rep, no minimum order value, no company required — you can buy as an individual. Both prices — per unit and per carton — are open before you order.
"Low MOQ" usually turns out to mean 500 pieces per model, or a $2,000 order minimum, or a trial batch you have to negotiate with a sales manager.
Ours means one carton. One carton of one model, mixed with as many other models as you want, from as many different factories as you want. There is no minimum order value at all.
This matters if you are testing an assortment. A shop owner who wants to try twelve models before committing cannot do that on a platform built around container loads. A marketplace seller who needs to know which SKU moves before buying depth cannot afford 500 units of a guess.
Every product page shows two prices — per unit and per carton — and how many pieces the carton holds. Both are visible without registration. Freight is calculated on your actual weight and volume in the cart, starting at $0.84/kg for road cargo to Kazakhstan and $1.75/kg to Russia, with a 100 kg minimum shipment weight.
Pricing: Both Numbers, Always Visible
| Example item | Per unit | Per carton | Pieces per carton |
|---|---|---|---|
| P17610161146877208 | $11.83 | $142 | 12 pcs |
Both prices are published on every product page. The per-carton price is what the factory charges; the per-unit price is that figure divided by the carton quantity. There is no hidden margin between the two, and no third number that appears at checkout.
Freight is calculated separately, on actual weight and volume, and shown before you pay.
And the conversion rate is a published formula, not an internal one. We convert at the official People's Bank of China rate plus 5%. Open the PBOC site, add five percent, and you have the exact rate your order is calculated at — fixed on the day you pay. Ask any other intermediary what rate they use and compare the answer.
Who Can Buy, and From What Volume
Do you need a registered company? No. You can buy as an individual. On DDP shipments the freight forwarder acts as importer of record and clears customs. We don't ask for VAT numbers or incorporation documents.
What is the minimum order? One factory carton of one model. There is no minimum order value. Mix twenty different models, one carton each — that is a valid order.
Do you break cartons or send single samples? No. Opening a carton turns the remainder into dead stock and destroys the factory packaging your goods need to sell as new. Your test order is one carton — and unlike a single sample, a test carton sells afterwards.
What if the item is assorted? If the product page says "assorted" or "mix colors", you receive a sealed factory mix. Colours can't be chosen and the exact split isn't guaranteed — that's how line packing works. You know this before you order, not at unboxing.
Freight and the 100 kg Rule
Freight is charged on weight and volume, not on the value of your goods. That single fact decides whether a wholesale order makes money.
| Route | Mode | Rate | Min. chargeable weight |
|---|---|---|---|
| Yiwu / Shantou → Алматы, Kazakhstan | Road (cargo) | $0.84–2.04 /kg | 100 kg |
| Yiwu / Shantou → Москва, Russia | Road (cargo) | $1.75–3.62 /kg | 100 kg |
| → EU, US, Canada, Middle East | Sea, rail, road, air | quoted on request | 100 kg |
Transit times, door to door:
| Destination | Sea | Rail | Road | Air |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| United States | 13–32 days | — | — | 5–12 days |
| Canada | 20–55 days | — | — | 7–15 days |
| European Union | 40–60 days | 28–35 days | 20–25 days | 8–15 days |
| Saudi Arabia | — | — | — | 7–12 days |
The 100 kg rule. Competitive door-to-door DDP rates — the ones with customs clearance and duties already included — start strictly at 100 kg. Below it, your shipment is billed at a small-consignment rate, two to three times the base, or simply rounded up to 100 kg.
So we give you 30 days of free consolidation at our warehouse in China. Add the items you need, build the shipment to an efficient weight, and ship it all at the proper rate. Rates are calculated live in the cart for your exact weight and volume.
Where the Goods Come From

We ship to the EAEU — Russia, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Armenia, Belarus, Azerbaijan and Kyrgyzstan — and to Europe, the United States, Canada and the Middle East.
Documents, Certification and Customs
In the international toy trade, compliance is your ticket to the market. So here we tell you the inconvenient truth instead of the convenient one. We will not promise a CE certificate for an unbranded low-cost toy — that promise falls apart at your first shop inspection, and you pay for it, not us.
What you see before you buy. If a manufacturer holds valid testing — EN71 and CE for the EU, CPSIA and CPC for the US, TR CU for the EAEU — the product page carries a badge marked "certificates provided by the manufacturer", and we send the scanned lab report on request. If there is no badge, the factory makes that item for the Chinese domestic market without certification. We don't write "certificate pending" and we don't attach someone else's report.
How many items actually carry documents — the number, not an adjective. 25,572 catalogue items hold at least one valid certificate: REACH 17,648, EN71 14,250, CPSIA 12,940, ASTM F963 12,768, CE 9,401, CPC 9,185, UKCA 3,419, RoHS 2,367. An item can hold several at once, so the figures overlap.
What ships with every consignment: commercial invoice and packing list. Manufacturer test reports on request, for the items that carry a badge.
Customs — two clean routes. On DDP shipments the forwarder handles Chinese export clearance, freight, clearance in your country and all duties. If you clear customs yourself, we provide official export from the Chinese side — and if the factory holds no export licence, we or our licensed partners act as Exporter of Record and file the declaration.
Buyer Protection
In China. Every consignment is visually inspected at our Guangzhou warehouse before loading: article numbers, contents, colours, quantity per carton, packaging condition. Wrong items are turned back on the spot — you don't pay international freight for someone else's mistake.
In transit. Cargo insurance is available on request and typically costs 1–3% of invoice value. If an insured shipment is damaged, we draft the claim against the carrier, file it, and follow it to payout.
On arrival. File within 3 days for wrong items or transit damage, within 7 days for a latent factory defect, with a continuous unboxing video. Production defects resolve in 7–14 working days, transit claims in 15–30. You are compensated by account credit or by free replacement in your next shipment.
If a factory refuses to acknowledge a defect, we stop working with that factory and pay your compensation from our own reserve fund. Our dispute with a supplier is our problem, not yours.
Photo Report
We photograph every batch when it arrives at our warehouse, before it ships. You get the report with your shipment — not a stock photo of a showroom.
How Low MOQ Actually Works Here

| Minimum order value | none |
| Mixing models | unlimited |
| Mixing factories | unlimited, we consolidate |
| Minimum shipment weight | 100 kg |

No.
What does a carton usually contain?
It depends on the item — every product page states the carton quantity explicitly.
