"How to Win Price Wars, Control MOQs, Secure Better Terms, and Protect Your Margins in China" is the definitive tactical manual for the Calculated Negotiator. Global sourcing expert Rick Smith pulls back the curtain on the "Strategic Theater" factories use to pad margins, hide efficiencies, and enforce restrictive MOQs. This isn't a book about business etiquette—it's a field-tested guide to dismantling quotes line-by-line and reclaiming your leverage.

Inside, you will master:

The "Should-Cost" Model: Use raw material math to force a factory's true bottom line.
MOQ Manipulation: Tactics to lower minimums without increasing unit costs.
The 20/80 Payment Reality: Why the 30% deposit is a trap and how to move to credit-based growth.
Quality Fade Tripwires: Exact contract language to stop a factory from swapping high-end materials for scrap.
The Art of the Exit: How to fire a supplier without losing your molds or your intellectual property.

Stop paying the "Foreigner Tax." Learn the psychological and mathematical levers used by the world's most successful brands to dominate their supply chains and protect their profits.
