Best Surveillance IP Cameras 2013 for Sale Online at Chinese Wholesale Sites

China is no doubt the biggest manufacturing hub of all kinds of surveillance IP cameras. Every year the country exports surveillance cameras that fit homes, offices, cars or other occasions to the world through online transactions or traditional trading. In recent years, as e-commerce develops and it is getting easier to shop for products we need online from foreign countries, more and more re-sellers and end consumers choose to purchase made-in-China surveillance cameras from Chinese wholesale websites.

Now even if you are a store owner looking for cheap IP surveillance cameras to earn high margins, you don’t have to invest big money for a single order by shopping with a wholesale store in bulk. Wholesale in small quantities has become the dominating trend in the arena of Chinese wholesale foreign trade. Given the more flexible trading model as well as the highly competitive prices, people have good reasons to use Chinese sites to buy surveillance cameras either for personal needs or for resell business.

Generally, you can get the information like which are the best selling Internet protocol surveillance cameras from the ratings or sales volumes of the surveillance cameras at reliable Chinese sties. Though both comprehensive online shopping malls like Aliexpress.com also offers a wide range of surveillance cameras, I personally would tend to recommend you to use sites which focus more on electronic gadgets, such as Lightinthebox.com or Dinodirect.com. Of course, for such products, company credibility is the first thing to consider otherwise you may encounter lots of pre-sales hassles and get no way to have them reasonably solved.

To find out the best surveillance IP cameras 2013 for sale at China-based wholesale shopping sites, you can do research yourself as much as you can. Based on my research, most IP cameras available at China shopping sites are designed in the form of webcams. That is, an IP camera can also be used as a webcam but not vice versa. Below are my own findings regarding this topic and you can take them for reference if you are interested in.

Chinese Global Retailer Lightinthebox.com Filed for an IPO

According to the Sina Technology news, on April 18, the famous Chinese online shopping website Lightinthebox.com submitted an IPO application (the F1-form) to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission to go public. This is a big move for all China-based international online retailers, not just for the company, though it is hard to say whether they can be successfully listed or not so far.

The prospectus of Lightinthebox.com shows that they have become profitable since the Q4 of 2012. It seems many people have deep doubts on the claim as it is not a secret that rare e-commerce websites have really turned profitable, including the most famous Chinese domestic e-commerce websites like Jd.com.

Lightinthebox.com is the first Chinese company to list on the New York Stock Exchange in 2013. They apply for the IPO under the stock exchange code “litb” and offer a rather low fund raising goal with only $86,250,000 USD. This means they won’t get much difficulty finding investors if they successfully go public.

Wholesale Costume Jewelry: Affordable Fashion Accessories for Ladies

What’s Costume Jewelry?

If fine jewelry made of precious metals and gems are too expensive for you to fit a new outfit or fashion style, then you should really consider costume jewelry. Also, as costume jewelry is normally offered at extremely low prices, if you want to save on shipping fee, we would suggest you buy wholesale costume jewelry for a single order from a China wholesale marketplace like Lightinthebox.

Then, what’s costume jewelry? If you do not know about the definition about costume jewelry, you are not alone. And it’s completely fine as you will become well aware of what a piece of costume jewelry refers to and its values after you read this article.

It was in the 1930s that costume jewelry was born in the world. As a replacement for “real” jewelry, costume jewelry is also commonly called as fake jewelry, junk jewelry, cheap jewelry or fashion jewelry. Unlike precious jewelry, costume jewelry works mainly as ornamentation for ladies to complement a particular fashionable garment or “costume”. From the very beginning, costume jewelry was intended to be fashionable for a short time only. That is to say, a piece of costume jewelry usually lasts its fashion life for a very limited time and becomes outdated soon. But it does not mean that the outdated costume jewelry leaves the fashion stage for ever. Soon it will become unprecedentedly trendy pairing with a new trendy style or outfit. In essence, though costume jewelry is a cheap and disposable accessory used for adorning a specific fashionable garment, it is gaining more and more popularity among the masses for its unique, beautiful and extremely fashionable styles as well as its high affordability. For example, on Lightinthebox.com, you can get a gorgeous CZ costume jewelry set for just $9.99!

Originally, costume or fashion jewelry was all made of cheap simulated gemstones. But on the modern days, a wider range of better materials are used to make costume jewelry including high-end crystals, cubic zirconia simulated diamonds (referred to as CZ for short), sterling silver and semi-precious stones. That explains why some of the great costume jewelry looks no difference from fine jewelry by a simple glance. And today, online stores offering wholesale costume jewelry to global buyers are everywhere. Among all types of costume jewelry, silver jewelry and bridal jewelry including rings, bracelets, necklaces, earrings and tiara are the most widely sought-after.
