Send an RFQ. Compare competitive Korea-side pricing.

No. You can use our quotation simply to compare Korea-side pricing, availability and lead time with your current suppliers. There is no purchase commitment at the quotation stage.

We operate as a Korea-based sourcing desk rather than a fixed-stock webshop. For each RFQ, we check suitable Korean suppliers, distributors, surplus sources or aftermarket channels and confirm current availability.

Where available, yes. We can check Genuine OEM, recognised Korean OEM/OES or aftermarket alternatives and identify the option clearly in the quotation. We do not substitute a different brand or specification without your approval.

There is no minimum for an initial sourcing test from our side. Some individual suppliers or specific parts may have their own MOQ, and we will tell you before you decide whether to proceed.

Before purchase, we verify supplier-provided part number, brand, stated condition and specification against the approved quotation. When goods pass through the designated inspection point, physical checks cover quantity, packaging, labels and externally visible condition. For direct supplier dispatch, verification is based on supplier-provided photos, documents and shipment records. Functional testing or formal authentication requires a separate written scope.

Depending on size, urgency and destination, we compare express courier, air freight and sea freight options through Korea-side logistics providers. The final quotation states the shipping basis, whether freight is included or separate, and the agreed responsibility point.

No payment is required for an RFQ or order request. The planned method for an accepted order is bank transfer before purchase. We must first verify the seller/payee, account holder, accepted currency and export route. Review and approve the final PI, and pay only after its verified payment instructions are confirmed. International-remittance arrangements are still being verified; an order request does not mean payment is yet available.

Please send the part/OEM number, quantity, machine or vehicle model, preferred condition or brand, and destination country. VIN or serial number can help when part identification depends on the exact model.

Yes. WhatsApp is the fastest option for screenshots, photos and quick RFQs. You can also send PDFs and other files in the chat. For large Excel lists or formal documents, email is also available.

We will not ask you to buy just because we found a source. If the Korea-side option is not commercially useful, you can keep your existing supplier. The purpose of the first RFQ is to compare real numbers.

No. KOREA SOURCING DESK is an independent Korea-based sourcing service unless a specific quotation states otherwise. Our role is to find and compare suitable Korea-side supply options for your RFQ.

Reply by email or WhatsApp with your quotation reference, selected items, quantities, consignee and delivery details, or send your PO. We reconfirm availability, lead time, freight and final amount, then verify the transaction details before issuing the final PI. We will confirm whether your order can proceed. After you approve the PI and payment instructions are confirmed, cleared funds allow the approved purchase to begin, followed by the agreed verification, dispatch and documents. Request an order →

The final quotation will identify the seller, exporter and document issuer for the specific order. The applicable seller/exporter provides the Commercial Invoice and Packing List, and the carrier or export agent provides the relevant transport or export document. If you need a Certificate of Origin, test report or destination-specific certificate, request it before approving the quotation so availability and cost can be confirmed.

Warranty, returns and claim eligibility depend on the original supplier and whether the item is new, used or refurbished. The applicable supplier terms and claim procedure are stated before purchase. KOREA SOURCING DESK does not add a separate product warranty unless it is written in the quotation.

If the Korea-side purchase has not yet been placed, cancellation is handled under the final quotation and any non-recoverable bank or supplier costs are disclosed. Once approved goods have been purchased, cancellation or refund may not be possible unless the original supplier accepts the return. If KSD cannot purchase the approved goods, unused funds are refunded or an alternative is offered for your approval.

Only when expressly stated in the quotation. Unless the quoted shipping basis is DDP, import duties, destination VAT or tax, customs-clearance charges, storage, permits and local compliance costs are the buyer's responsibility.

The validity period is stated on each quotation. Supplier stock, exchange rates and freight can change before payment, so availability and the final payable amount are reconfirmed when you approve the order.

Initial availability feedback is normally targeted within 1–3 Korean business days. Complex, obsolete or multi-line RFQs may require more time, and we will update you if additional supplier confirmation is needed.
