All Products Private Label Carton: Alloy, Karat and the Cost of a Color Change - HOLYCOME
All Products: tolerances, cost structure and the reject rule for US wholesale buyers.
Alloy, Karat and the Cost of a Color Change in the Private Label Carton Program
A US buyer of all Products sent us a competitor's all Product in March with one question: why does this fail at prong geometry after a season. We measured it, rebuilt the spec around stone retention after a 40-cycle wear test and prong tip height within +/-0.10 mm, and shipped 200 all Products that cleared inspection with zero rejects, priced at USD 45-252 for the 200-piece Private Label Carton run.
At 200 pieces the buyer was not buying a defect, they were buying a document. The Private Label Carton order carried a photo and a price, and prong geometry had nowhere to live, with GRA report and private-label carton with hangtag stated on the same sheet.
Our rebuild kept the buyer's retail price and changed four numbers on the bench. The next run cleared inspection because the specification traveled with the tray, not with a phone call, certified GRA report and packed private-label carton with hangtag at 200 pieces, certified GRA report and packed private-label carton with hangtag at 200 pieces.
Four Spec Lines a Private Label Carton Buyer Checks
Most quotes describe the all Product and skip the part that determines the buyer's margin. Those four lines are listed below with the trade default beside our standard, the figure being USD 45-252 for a 200-piece run.
| Spec point | Common trade output | HOLYCOME standard | Cost if missed |
|---|---|---|---|
| Stone colour consistency | Graded by eye under D65 | Colour matched to a retained master stone, per tray | Repeat colour complaint in the same SKU |
| Sizing drift across the run | Not measured | Go/no-go gauge on every size, drift held under 0.15 mm | Resize queue and reship cost |
| Clasp spring life | Sampled by hand | Cycled 500 times on a jig per lot | Detach claim and brand damage |
| Prong tension and seat depth | Checked by feel at the bench | Pull-tested per piece, seat depth written on the sheet | Stone loss and total replacement |
Write these four into the purchase order and the argument after delivery becomes arithmetic rather than recollection, shipped as private-label carton with hangtag and certified GRA report, and 200 pieces leaves Wuzhou in private-label carton with hangtag at USD 45-252.
Private Label Packaging for all Products
Private label changes four things and none of them is the piece: the stamp, the hangtag, the box and the barcode. Get those four aligned before the first bulk run or the carton arrives with your name spelled two ways, on a 200-piece Private Label Carton order at USD 45-252.
The stamp goes inside the shank or on the clasp tag, and it has to be small enough not to break the surface on a thin all Product. Below 0.8 mm of shank width we recommend the hangtag only, the figure being USD 45-252 for a 200-piece run.
Cartons are quoted at 200 pieces with the label printed, not stickered, because a sticker on a matte box reads as a repack. Lead time adds three days for the print run, which is why private label starts later than stock, and the Private Label Carton quote for it sits at USD 45-252.
Cost Split on a Private Label Carton Piece at USD 45-252
At USD 45-252 per piece for all Products, the stone is roughly a quarter and labor is where two quotes for the same drawing diverge.
| Cost line | Share | What moves it |
|---|---|---|
| Base metal or alloy for all Products | 32% | Alloy choice and casting yield |
| Stone or melee for all Products | 23% | Sieve range and lot batching |
| Setting and finishing labor for all Products | 21% | Jig design and bench minutes |
| Plating, polish and QC for all Products | 14% | Per-tray versus per-piece checks |
| Packaging for all Products | 10% | private-label carton with hangtag |
The saving in the cheapest all Products quote hides in the plating line and the stone grade. Both appear in season two, not on arrival, which is USD 45-252 on the Private Label Carton schedule.
Three Failures That Reach the Private Label Carton Bench
size-step drift
A run gauged at size 6 and estimated elsewhere ships a size 8 that measures 7.75. The mismatch shows up as a resize queue two weeks after launch, which the Private Label Carton file records at USD 45-252 in private-label carton with hangtag.
Our countermeasure is a gauge and a written limit. It adds about 22 seconds per piece and removes the defect from the run rather than from the carton, priced at USD 45-252 for the 200-piece Private Label Carton run.
prong geometry
A prong that grips the girdle instead of the pavilion survives the showroom and fails the third ultrasonic clean. The seat has to be cut to the pavilion angle before the prongs close, on a 200-piece Private Label Carton order at USD 45-252.
In a 200-piece run this typically shows on 11 of pieces. Catching it means measuring stone retention after a 40-cycle wear test at the tray level, not inspecting the finished carton, and 200 pieces leaves Wuzhou in private-label carton with hangtag at USD 45-252.
rhodium burn-off
A 0.05 micron rhodium layer reads white in the tray and shows yellow at the shank in six months of daily wear. Thickness, not bath chemistry, is the variable that matters, shipped as private-label carton with hangtag and certified GRA report.
The commercial effect is a return shipment plus a resize labor claim, typically USD 9-14 per piece. Buyers who have seen it once put it in the purchase order; buyers who have not usually discover it on the first return, and at USD 45-252 for 200 pieces that is the number the buyer signs.
Terms Behind a Private Label Carton Order
The commercial frame is short enough to state in full. Minimum order is 50 pieces per design, and mixed designs travel in one shipment, so a 200-piece Private Label Carton order can carry three or four models without a separate setup charge. Sample pieces leave in 3-5 days when the components are in stock, and a new model adds about twenty days before the first article exists, certified GRA report and packed private-label carton with hangtag at 200 pieces.
Payment is 30 percent with the order and 70 percent against the bill of lading, with the balance window stated on the invoice rather than agreed by message. Prices quoted at USD 45-252 are FOB Guangzhou or Shenzhen; DDP is quoted separately because the duty line moves with the tariff schedule and not with our cost.
Packing follows the private-label carton with hangtag format at 200 pieces to the carton, and the packing list carries SKU, size and stone size so receiving can count without opening every box. Private-label cartons add three days for the print run and must be approved before the first bulk order, not after it, on a 200-piece Private Label Carton order at USD 45-252.
Certification is GRA report for the lots that carry it, with a batch report and per-piece measurement of stone retention after a 40-cycle wear test for the lots below the threshold. The document set travels with the shipping papers, which is what a customs broker asks for at the port rather than after clearance, priced at USD 45-252 for the 200-piece Private Label Carton run.
A rejected tray is settled inside the same order cycle against the retained reference piece. If the difference sits on our retained sample we replace or credit; if it appeared in transit we split the assay cost and file with the carrier, and that rule is written on the order before the deposit clears, which is how the Private Label Carton account reads it at USD 45-252.
The Sample Approval That Survives Production
Buyers in the American bridal market tend to over-index on unit price for all Products and under-index on what happens after delivery, quoted at USD 45-252 per piece in private-label carton with hangtag.
The commercial version of this question for all Products is simple: what does a failure cost the buyer, and who pays it. In our terms the answer is a replacement inside the same order cycle, with the retained reference tray as the arbiter, with GRA report and private-label carton with hangtag stated on the same sheet.
That clause matters more than a discount on all Products. A 4% lower unit price disappears on the first rejected tray; a written responsibility clause does not, which the Private Label Carton file records at USD 45-252 in private-label carton with hangtag.
How the Second Order Becomes Cheaper
This is where all Products stops being a commodity and starts being a supply relationship, priced at USD 45-252 for the 200-piece Private Label Carton run.
We run this check per tray rather than per carton because the defect that matters on all Products is the one that repeats. A single odd piece is noise; a pattern across one tray is a process problem and it will be in every tray made after it, quoted at USD 45-252 per piece in private-label carton with hangtag.
The report the buyer receives states the count per tray, the measured average and the outlier count for all Products. It is deliberately unglamorous, and it is the document that settles most disputes before they start, the figure being USD 45-252 for a 200-piece run.
The Calendar Behind a Private Label Carton Run
For private-label carton with hangtag at 200 pieces, the sequence is fixed and the dates are the only thing that moves, quoted at USD 45-252 per piece in private-label carton with hangtag.
- Agree the stamp position, the hangtag copy and the box print before the first carton.
- Print the cartons and hangtags in one run: a sticker on a matte box reads as a repack.
- Set the barcode and the FNSKU mapping for every SKU before the label file is approved.
- Build the first carton at the quoted quantity so the pack-out is proven, not assumed.
- Hold a retained carton as the pack reference for every reorder.
MOQ stays at 50 pieces per design on all Products, low enough to test a shelf and high enough to keep the gauge check independent, with GRA report and private-label carton with hangtag stated on the same sheet, which the Private Label Carton file records at USD 45-252 in private-label carton with hangtag.
The First Private Label Carton Order
The point of a small first run is not the margin. It is finding out whether the supplier's paperwork survives contact with the actual goods, which is how the Private Label Carton account reads it at USD 45-252.
The first order is the cheapest inspection a buyer will ever run, because the volume is small enough to check every tray by hand, which the Private Label Carton file records at USD 45-252 in private-label carton with hangtag.
Getting private-label carton with hangtag to the American bridal market
Export runs through Guangzhou or Shenzhen. For Private Label Carton orders the GRA report file travels with the shipping documents, not separately, and the Private Label Carton quote for it sits at USD 45-252.
The clearance term matters more than the rate at 200 pieces. A duty surprise can cost more than the whole freight line, which the Private Label Carton file records at USD 45-252 in private-label carton with hangtag.
The arrival check is three steps: count cartons against the packing list, weigh a sample tray, and measure ten pieces against stone retention after a 40-cycle wear test and prong tip height within +/-0.10 mm, and 200 pieces leaves Wuzhou in private-label carton with hangtag at USD 45-252.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the minimum order for all Products?
50 pieces per all Product. Designs mix inside one shipment, so a first order of three designs at 50 pieces each is normal for a new US account. Below 50 the gauge check stops being independent of the shift, quoted at USD 45-252 per piece in private-label carton with hangtag.
Do you supply certificates for all Products?
GRA report on all Products above the threshold stated on the quote. Below it we supply a batch report plus per-piece measurement of stone retention after a 40-cycle wear test, which is what a counter or a listing actually needs, with GRA report and private-label carton with hangtag stated on the same sheet.
How do you handle a rejected tray?
We replace or credit inside the same order cycle. The retained reference tray decides: if prong geometry shows on our retained piece we own it, and if it appeared in transit we split the assay cost and file with the carrier, quoted at USD 45-252 per piece in private-label carton with hangtag.
What are the payment terms?
30 percent deposit with the order, 70 percent against the bill of lading. For accounts on a second order we quote 30/70 with a 15-day balance window once the first shipment has cleared, quoted at USD 45-252 per piece in private-label carton with hangtag.
What is the minimum order for all Products?
