4S dealership records are directly connected to the manufacturer's database, making the data hard to tamper with and the most reliable, with original parts guaranteed; third-party repair shops usually are not connected, making their data unverifiable. Therefore, we only consider the connected records from 4S dealerships as valid historical documentation.

Comparing quotes properly means comparing the same thing: 1. Normalize the scope: some quotes include inland transport, export clearance, inspection and ocean freight, others are FOB only. Ask each exporter for a line-item breakdown so you can compare like with like. 2. Check what is excluded: port charges at destination, customs duties, homologation and registration are almost always on you. Get a written list of everything NOT included. 3. Look beyond the number: a quote 10-15% below the market usually means the car has an issue (accident history, rolled-back mileage, pending lien) or the exporter plans to cut corners on inspection and loading. 4. Verify the exporter: business license, export qualification, recent shipment records, and references from buyers in your region. A realistic quote from a verifiable exporter is worth more than a bargain that turns into a dispute. Always pay against milestones with inspection before balance payment.

Yes. Third-party service providers in logistics, inspection, customs clearance, and finance can join the platform as "service providers."
