  1. I’ve been talking to one of my suppliers who has been helping western customers buy masks from factories he has relationships with. He’s somebody I’ve worked with for years whom I trust. With his permission, i’ve reproduced part of our conversation here

        What I've seen from multiple sources is that many mask factories in China want a 50% deposit as you order and the rest before they ship. Many US Customers appear to be looking for Net 30 terms, while other customers are sending folks to wait at the factory gates with cash.
