"Want to buy imported LED screens but are afraid of being cheated? "This may be your biggest headache right now. Let’s talk from the bottom of our hearts today about how to choose the display screen that comes from across the ocean so as not to suffer a loss.

Where to buy imported LED displays_Guide to avoid pitfalls and save 30% of costs

one,​ ​Failure to meet demand = wasting money in vain​

First figure out what you want to do:

  • ​Advertising​ ​You have to keep an eye on the brightness parameters. For example, in a project in a business district in Southeast Asia, the originally purchased 4500cd/m² screen could not be seen clearly during the day. After replacing it with a 7500cd/m² screen, the number of ad clicks doubled. ​ ​For every 500cd/m² lower outdoor screen, the advertising effect is attenuated by 15%​ ​This is no joke.
  • ​Stage rental​ ​Focus on the box weight. The imported aluminum-magnesium alloy box is 40% lighter than ordinary materials, and the loading and unloading cost is reduced by half. A performance company calculated that after using lightweight boxes, it saved 280,000 yuan in logistics costs for the whole year.
  • ​Sports venues​ ​Smart cooling is a must. A European stadium's screen crashed due to overheating and the game was interrupted, resulting in a loss of 1.2 million euros. Nowadays, high-end screens are equipped with them​ ​Temperature control early warning system​ ​, the temperature exceeds 55℃ and automatically reduces the brightness to save life.

two,​ ​Hidden costs kill people​

Don’t just look at the numbers on the quote:

  1. ​Certification fee​ ​Hidden deeply. There are three levels of CE certification. Level 3 is 3.8 times more expensive than Level 1. Some buyers did not do EMC testing because they thought it was cheap. As a result, the screen interfered with the airport radar and was fined 2.3 million yuan.
  2. ​Logistics trap​ ​The most terrible thing. The humidity of shipping LED screens must be controlled at 45% ± 5%. Due to the moisture in the container of a certain batch of goods, 32% of the lamp beads were oxidized and scrapped when they arrived at the port. Reliable logistics companies will now distribute it​ ​Temperature and humidity recorder​ ​, alarm immediately if data anomaly occurs.
  3. ​Tariff calculation​ ​There is a way. The tariff difference between LED modules and full screens is 9 percentage points. A company in Shenzhen imports parts and assembles them domestically, directly saving 17% on tariffs.

three,​ ​Procurement channel touchstone​

Finding the right path saves half the worry:

  • ​Direct procurement from manufacturers​ ​17 days faster than the agent. There is an OEM factory now open​ ​Online selection system​ ​, 3D models are rendered in real time, which is 10 times more intuitive than viewing PDF drawings.
  • ​Bonded warehouse spot​ ​Emergency tool. Last year's Double Eleven shopping mall had a movable screen failure, and the goods were dispatched from the bonded warehouse in 6 hours, which saved 23 days compared with overseas delivery.
  • ​technical response​ ​It must be written into the contract. The screen flickered at a music festival, and the engineer provided video guidance to repair it in 2 hours. This service was worth the price of admission.

Four,​ ​Risk prevention life and death line​

Don’t step into these minefields:

  • ​Patent search​ ​Must do. A company imported Korean screens, but was sued for using Taiwanese chips. It lost patent fees and delayed the project.
  • ​Payment method​ ​It is safer to choose TT than LC. The LC delivery document may be refused payment even if it is just a few points short of the mark. As a result, an importer will lose 18% of the deposit.
  • ​Warranty terms​ ​Look at the details. A certain gymnasium project agreed on a "three-year warranty", but the lamp beads were only guaranteed for one year, and the subsequent maintenance cost would cost an additional 760,000.

five,​ ​After-sales support determines life or death​

A good screen also needs good services:

  • ​Spare parts library​ ​Be close to you. The South China Bonded Warehouse has a permanent supply of 8,000 square meters of modules, which is 15 days faster than dispatching goods from overseas.
  • ​Grayscale correction​ ​Don't skimp. A certain shopping mall's screen did not perform regular color calibration. After three years, the color difference ΔE value exceeded 7, and viewers said the screen looked green.
  • ​Firmware upgrade​ ​It is a value-added item. A screen with an intelligent light-sensing system reduces energy consumption by another 12% after the upgrade, saving a new module on electricity bills in two years.

Let’s talk about some industry knowledge: the failure rate of lamp beads of imported screens accounted for 87% of the total in the first three months. So,​ ​When signing the contract, be sure to indicate three-month replacement.​ ​. Those suppliers who dare to promise "180 days no reason to return or exchange" are the truly confident experts. Remember, buying a screen is not a one-time deal. Finding a partner who can accompany you for three years is much more than saving three melons and two dates!
