"I found the parts cheaper"


As a team we are constantly getting calls and emails from people saying they can get it cheaper “I can get it cheaper somewhere else” and the main one “China is half the price” No, one knows the frustrations of dealing with overseas vendors better than Shop Wireless Parts. We’ve spent years in the wholesale business supplying repair shops with replacement parts for iPhone, iPads, and iPods, and we strive to be the connecting link between Chinese vendors and repair shops in America.

When we hear customers say, “I got an email from a Chinese vendor saying they could sell me original iPhone parts at half the cost you’re selling them for!” we feel distrust between the customer and us. There are several factors to consider before purchasing parts for iPhones from overseas vendors. Unless you’re purchasing hundreds of replacement iPhone screens at a time, purchasing direct from China usually isn’t a good business model to follow. Several large companies with contacts and vendors in China continue to purchase parts for iPhone repairs from Shop wireless Parts, simply because we make it easy!

Shop Wireless Parts wants to help businesses succeed and keep growing. We do our best to offer the parts cheapest as possible. Even if you do the math and see it may be a couple hundred dollars cheaper, is it worth the risk? Most Chinese suppliers only take wire transfers or western union (remember these transactions cant be reversed). Even if you do get the parts they may not be to your standards. What if the parts are defective (you will always have defective parts) Can you imagine losing thousands of dollars and getting stuck with a huge supply of defective repair parts?
When you take into account the high shipping cost, losses on defective products, long lead times, and language barriers, purchasing parts from China is rarely worth saving a couple dollars. Especially when you can get high-quality parts from an American company willing to do all the hard work for you – all while offering awesome customer service, affordable shipping rates and a flexible return policy.
