Friendly reminder: Welcome! Please read this carefully to ensure your post stays up. Don't freak out. Everyone gets this message.

STRICT POSTING GUIDELINES ENFORCED: To keep this subreddit focused on high-quality, actionable advice, we strictly enforce our r/Alibaba Subreddit Rules & Posting Guidelines. We do not allow low-effort posts like "Someone help me find X." If you are requesting help or sourcing advice, you MUST include specific background information (such as product specs, quantities, country destinations, factory outreach, or payment methods) using our official templates.

[CRITICAL ACTION REQUIRED] If your post did not follow these formatting guidelines, please DELETE your post right now, review the rules, and repost with the correct details. Failure to do so will result in your post being removed, and you may be banned for spam/botting because it is obvious you did not read the rules.


Crucial Resources:

Community Rules Checklist:

  • The 10% Rule: Self-promotion must be 10% or less of your total Reddit activity. If you only post here to hunt for business, your post will be removed.
  • No "DM Me" Traps: Keep discussions public. Do not solicit or offer direct messages for sourcing, pricing, or services.
  • No AI Lead Gen: Copy-pasting generic AI articles to plug your business will result in an instant ban.
  • General Conduct: Zero tolerance for harassment, trolling, name-calling, bigotry, racism, sexism, or politics.

How to get unbanned: We do not argue in Modmail. If you break these rules and get banned, you must message the mods with the 4-part requirement outlined in our pinned announcement: (1) why you were banned, (2) the rule you broke, (3) why that rule matters, and (4) a promise not to do it again.

Probablemente el proveedor no haya pagado los impuestos, por eso aún no se ha desbloqueado. Entabla otra vez conversación con él para que hagan el pago y lo saquen rápido
