How to Buy Wholesale Jewelry: 7 Steps, With Prices at 1, 3 and 8 Units on Every Listing

This is the procurement process for buying wholesale jewelry from AdornTrade, written as 7 steps a buyer can follow on the site: pick a material family, read the 3 prices on the listing, check the material on each item, check stock and options, quote shipping, place and pay the first order, then reorder against a catalogue whose stock and prices are reconciled with production every night. As of 3 November 2026 the published catalogue holds 2,113 listings, 2,109 of them in stock, across 7,908 variants.

Free duty-paid shipping on orders of $99–$350 to the US, Canada, the UK, the EU, Switzerland, Norway, Australia, New Zealand and Mexico: import duties and VAT included, nothing to pay on delivery, from 1 piece.

  1. 01

    Step 1. Start from the material family, not from a design. The catalogue is organised as 5 families, each with its own price band at one unit: copper and brass, 251 listings with a median of $1.56; stainless steel, 314 listings at a median of $4.03; natural stone and pearl, 223 listings at $5.12; sterling silver, 939 listings at $12.30; and moissanite set on 925 silver, 386 listings at $23.89. A shop that sells on price starts in the first 2 families, a shop that sells on material starts in the last 2, and all 5 share one basket and one shipping quote, so a first order does not have to commit to a single family.

  2. 02

    Step 2. Read the 3 prices on the listing before anything else. Every listing prints a one-unit price, a 3 unit price and an 8 unit price, in US dollars, on the public page. As of 3 November 2026, 7,908 of 7,908 published variants carry both quantity prices, and on every one of them the 3 unit price is below the one-unit price and the 8 unit price below that. There is no separate trade price list, no login price and no quote-only item: the price on the listing is the price charged at checkout. Quantity pricing applies per product, so each listing keeps its own published unit or quantity price regardless of what else is in the order.

  3. 03

    Step 3. Check the material on each item. Every listing in the sterling silver family is 925 sterling silver, marked 925 or S925 on the listing, and as of 3 November 2026 that is 939 of 939. Moissanite is a stone category: the base metal is 925 sterling silver on 386 of 386 listings, and the listing states both the stone and the base metal. Stainless steel is labelled stainless steel on 314 of 314. Copper is labelled copper on 251 of 251. In the natural stone and pearl family, 196 of 223 listings are freshwater pearl or pearl, and the rest are agate, crystal, jade or turquoise, each named on the listing.

  4. 04

    Step 4. Check stock, options and sizes on the variant you actually want. 537 listings are a single variant, 471 offer 2 to 5 variants and 152 offer 6 or more; 1,066 listings carry a colour option and 242 carry a size option. Size values name their system on the value itself, for example HK 15 (54.3 mm) or US 7, and 290 listings are adjustable rather than sized. Stock is held per variant: as of 3 November 2026, 7,618 of 7,908 are in stock and the rest sit at zero. A variant at zero cannot be added to the basket, which is the point: a sold-out size is shown as sold out rather than accepted and refunded later.

  5. 05

    Step 5. Build one basket across families and quote shipping to your address. Add a destination at checkout and the available lines appear with their price and transit estimate, and any line on which duties are billed to the receiver is marked as such. For planning, the published reference quotes for a 200 g parcel are these: to the United States, the economy line quoted $6.98 at 10 to 15 days, the premium line $7.18 at 5 to 7 days and the standard line $8.56 at 8 to 15 business days on 14 September 2026, all duty prepaid; to the United Kingdom, $5.11 at 7 to 15 days, duty prepaid; and on 10 September 2026 the duty-prepaid economy line quoted $9.81 to Germany, $9.69 to France, $9.38 to Spain, $10.43 to Italy and $10.27 to the Netherlands. The live quote for your actual basket is the one that applies.

  6. 06

    Step 6. Place the first order and pay online at checkout. Payment is made online at checkout straight away, on the first order as on every reorder. A single piece at its one-unit price is the sample, a full order on the same terms as every reorder, prepared in 3 to 7 business days.

  7. 07

    Step 7. Reorder against a catalogue whose stock and prices are reconciled with production every night. At 01:00 Beijing time the whole catalogue is reconciled: a withdrawn style is taken off sale, a variant that sells out goes to zero here, a price change is recalculated into the 1, 3 and 8 unit prices, and a variant whose specification changed is paused until a person has re-checked it. Between 9 and 13 September 2026 that pass updated stock on between 393 and 1,582 variants each night, recalculated prices on up to 2,645 variants in a single night, and on 10 September took 3 withdrawn listings off sale. A design that sold can be reordered at the price on the page, and if it has stopped being made the listing says so before you order.

Shipping information

Reference shipping quotes for a 200 g parcel

To the United States: the economy line quoted $6.98 at 10 to 15 days, the premium line $7.18 at 5 to 7 days and the standard line $8.56 at 8 to 15 business days on 14 September 2026. To the United Kingdom: $5.11 at 7 to 15 days. On 10 September 2026 the duty-prepaid economy line quoted $9.81 to Germany, $9.69 to France, $9.38 to Spain, $10.43 to Italy and $10.27 to the Netherlands. A 200 g parcel is roughly a boxed first order; rates move with parcel weight and carrier pricing, so a larger basket is quoted separately at checkout.

What duty prepaid means at checkout

Duty prepaid means the import duty sits inside the shipping line approved at checkout and nothing is collected on delivery. The checkout marks any line on which duties are billed to the receiver instead, so the two kinds are never mixed on the same label. The reference quotes above to the United States, the United Kingdom and the 5 EU countries named were all duty prepaid on the dates given.

Before transit starts

Orders are prepared in Guangzhou in 3 to 7 business days and then travel 7 to 15 days on the economy lines, so a first order typically lands 2 to 3 weeks after payment. A supplier holding stock in your own country will beat that on speed; the trade here is factory pricing, 5 materials in one parcel and no minimum.

How the first order is paid, and how returns work

New buyers pay online at checkout straight away. The return request window is 14 days after delivery; eligibility, costs, exclusions and remedies are governed by the published returns policy, not by this page.

What to check on a listing before you order.

Store information

The price you plan around is the price you pay

Because the 1, 3 and 8 unit prices sit on the public listing, a buyer can cost a first order, a reorder and a retail price before writing a single email. There is nothing to apply for and no tier to reach. As of 3 November 2026, 7,908 of 7,908 published variants carry both quantity prices, so there is no listing on which the quantity price has to be requested.

What a stable supplier looks like in numbers

Stability is not a claim on this page, it is what the nightly pass produces. On 14 September 2026, 3,609 of 3,655 variants were in stock, 46 had been set to zero because they had sold out, and 6 listings were being held off the site because they had been withdrawn from production; those 6 return automatically only if they come back into stock. Between 9 and 13 September the pass completed every night, reaching 1,162 of its 1,166 target listings each time; the 4 it could not reach were left published rather than withdrawn on a single failed read.

Value for money by family

At one unit, copper and brass listings run $0.49 to $8.46 with a median of $1.56, stainless steel $0.39 to $11.71 with a median of $4.03, natural stone and pearl $0.93 to $52.80 with a median of $5.12, sterling silver $1.11 to $157.09 with a median of $12.30, and moissanite on 925 silver $6.23 to $204.06 with a median of $23.89. The 3 and 8 unit prices sit below each of those figures on the same listing.

Sizes that can be read without a chart

242 listings carry a size option and the value names its system, HK 15 (54.3 mm) or US 7 rather than a bare number, so a buyer in the United States and a buyer in Europe read the same value the same way. 290 listings are adjustable. Where a listing offers several sizes, each size is its own variant with its own stock figure, so a size that has sold out is shown at zero rather than accepted.

Buying wholesale jewelry for resale: the four numbers to write down before you order

The unit price at the quantity you will actually buy, the freight to your door including duty, the handling plus transit time, and the material. On this catalogue those four are printed before payment: three unit prices on every listing, a duty-paid freight line quoted at checkout for the parcel weight, 3 to 7 business days handling then 7 to 15 days on the economy lines, and the material named on every listing. Write them into your own margin sheet; a supplier who cannot give all four before payment is asking you to guess.

Where to buy wholesale jewelry: marketplace, factory or a catalogue like this one

A marketplace lists many sellers under one login and leaves the material and stock claims to each of them. A factory sells its own range, usually from a minimum run. AdornTrade has been in the jewelry business since 2020 and runs its own silver jewelry factory, which handles quality control, and works with partner stainless steel and copper jewelry factories in Panyu and Dongguan and a wider network of partner workshops. Its catalogue draws on 282 workshops across 2,113 listings, publishes each item with its own material and price, and reconciles stock and prices with production every night. What it does is sell one piece of any listing at a printed price, with the material named on the listing.

A boutique's first order, worked through in dollars

Take eight pieces each of the median silver earring, ring, bracelet and necklace at the 8-unit price: $84.08, $59.84, $64.32 and $81.36, so 32 pieces for $289.60. Add the freight the checkout quotes for the parcel, which for a 200 g parcel to the United States on 14 September 2026 was $6.98 to $8.56 with duty prepaid. Nothing is collected at delivery on those lines. The same 32 pieces in stainless steel come to about $105 and in copper under $40; the material named on each listing is what separates the three.

Step 0. No trade account, licence or tax number stands before the prices

Every price on the site is visible without a login and there is no account application. Payment is made online at checkout straight away, on the first order as on every reorder. Ordering without a trade account is described step by step on its own page.

What the material label says.

Enquiry notes

What travels with the order, and what each document shows

Five things exist and can be checked. The customs declaration travels with the parcel and is written line by line: product description, material, tariff heading, quantity and China as the country of origin; sterling silver goes under heading 7113.11. Every paid order also comes with a commercial invoice and a packing list in English, with the seller, the buyer and one line per item: description, material, HS code, country of origin, quantity and unit price. The link arrives in the payment confirmation email, ready to print or save as a PDF for your broker or your books. The listing names the material of each item, and the order confirmation email repeats the material and the unit price of every line you bought. Every design can be ordered as a single piece at its listed price, so you can check the quality in hand before you build a collection around it. A claim window of 14 days after delivery applies to every order.

How to read the material label

Only pieces marked 925 or S925 are listed as sterling silver; silver-plated and silver-tone pieces are never sold as sterling silver. Every moissanite piece is set in 925 sterling silver. Stainless steel is published as stainless steel. Copper is published as copper. Pearl listings are named freshwater pearl or pearl.

Buying wholesale jewelry here, step by step.

Published products Browse the full category →

Buying jewelry wholesale from an overseas supplier usually means an account application before any price is visible, a minimum per design, a price list that is out of date the day it is sent, and a reorder that fails because the design quietly stopped being made. The process here is different in 4 specific ways, and this page shows each of them rather than asserting them. Prices at 1, 3 and 8 units are printed on every public listing, in US dollars, with no login. Each item names its material directly on the listing. Stock and prices are reconciled with production every night, so a listing showing as available has been checked within the last 24 hours. And a first order is paid online at checkout, like every reorder. What follows is how to work through those steps in order and what to check at each one.

Ask a question before a first order

Product enquiry

Tell us which families and product types you stock and roughly what quantities you are working towards. Availability and pricing are those shown on the listing at the time of the order.

Questions about this catalogue

Is shipping free, and are import duties included?

Yes, on orders of $99 to $350 (goods value after discounts) shipped to the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, all 27 EU countries, Switzerland, Norway, Australia, New Zealand and Mexico: the duty-paid shipping line is free, and import duties and VAT are already included, so the checkout total is the full landed cost and nothing is collected on delivery. Orders start at 1 piece, and you can mix materials to reach $99. Orders above $165 may be sent as several duty-paid parcels, still free of charge. Outside the $99–$350 range, the cart shows the shipping charge before you pay. Express couriers (DHL, UPS, FedEx) are never free.

How do I buy wholesale jewelry for my store from AdornTrade?

Choose a material family, open a listing, read the one-unit, 3 unit and 8 unit prices printed on it, pick the variant you want, add it to the basket and quote shipping at checkout with your address. A first order is paid online at checkout straight away. The 7 steps above walk through each of those in order.

Do I need an approved wholesale account to see the prices?

No. All 3 price steps are printed on the public listing in US dollars, on every one of the 2,113 published listings, with no login. Every price is visible before you order, and a first-time buyer pays online at checkout straight away.

How much does it cost to start?

That depends on the family. At one unit, the medians as of 3 November 2026 are $1.56 for copper and brass, $4.03 for stainless steel, $5.12 for natural stone and pearl, $12.30 for sterling silver and $23.89 for moissanite on 925 silver. All 5 families share one basket and one shipping quote, and the reference shipping quotes for a 200 g parcel are listed above.

How do I know the silver is really 925?

Every listing in the sterling silver family is 925 sterling silver, marked 925 or S925 on the listing next to the price: as of 3 November 2026 that is 939 of 939 silver listings, and the base metal of 386 of 386 moissanite listings.

What happens if an item sells out at the factory after I planned a reorder?

The nightly pass sets its stock to zero here, so it stops showing as available rather than staying orderable. On 14 September 2026, 46 variants were sitting at zero for exactly this reason, and 6 listings were being held off the site because they had been withdrawn from production.

Is shipping DDP, with import duties included in the shipping price?

On the DDP (duty-prepaid) lines, yes: duty prepaid means the import duty sits inside the shipping line approved at checkout and nothing is collected on delivery. The reference quotes to the United States ($6.98, $7.18 and $8.56 for 200 g), the United Kingdom ($5.11) and Germany, France, Spain, Italy and the Netherlands ($9.38 to $10.43) were all duty prepaid on the dates given. The checkout marks any line on which duties are billed to the receiver.

Can I order a single piece as a sample first?

Yes. A single piece at its one-unit price is the sample, and it ships like any other order, prepared in 3 to 7 business days with 7 to 15 days in transit on the economy lines; reorders use the listed price. Small shops and individual online sellers are accepted and pay online at checkout like any other buyer.

Do I need a business licence, an EIN, a VAT number or a resale certificate to order?

A first order needs nothing extra at checkout: add the listings, choose the shipping line and pay online straight away. Prices are public from the first visit, and every later order is paid online immediately. The full description is on the page about ordering without a trade account.

Do you ship DDP to the EU, with duty paid, and where does that stop?

Yes, on the economy line to all 27 EU countries, plus the UK, Switzerland and Norway: the duty sits inside the freight figure at checkout and nothing is collected at the door. The line is quoted per destination, not as one European rate; for a 200 g parcel on 10 September 2026 it ran from $8.86 to Poland to $13.44 to Malta. The DDP line is quoted while the parcel's declared value is at or below $165; above that ceiling, orders of $99–$350 are split into several duty-paid parcels that ship free; only above $350 does the checkout quote express lines with duties payable on delivery. The page on EU delivery with DDP (duty paid) at checkout sets out the twelve main destinations one by one.
