Amazon Supplier Hunter — Better Product Sources
Example session with this skill installed
I am evaluating a private-label insulated stainless-steel water bottle for Amazon US. Mandatory: 750 ml, food-contact materials, leak-resistant lid, 304 stainless interior, laser logo, individual retail box, and carton labels. Preferred MOQ <= 500, sample in 2 weeks, production <= 35 days. Target landed cost <= $8.50; first order 500 units. Destination Los Angeles. Two rows below are illustrative quotes I supplied for normalization only, not real or verified suppliers:
Supplier A (type unknown): $4.20/unit at 500; $180 sample; $250 logo setup; retail box included; FOB named port not yet stated; 30 production days; 30% deposit / 70% before shipment.
Supplier B (claims manufacturer): $3.80/unit at 1,000 only; $90 sample; $300 tooling; packaging not included; EXW; 25 production days; 50% deposit / 50% before shipment.
Create a spec-lock with must-haves, targets, flexible items, and unknowns. Normalize what can be compared, calculate only supported costs and flag missing freight/duty/packaging as excluded rather than inventing values. Assess SOURCE-16 risks, prepare a fair RFQ and document/identity verification checklist, sample and inspection plan, authorization/IP/compliance questions, and a provisional next-step recommendation. Keep all figures illustrative seller-provided inputs.

Sourcing Decision Brief — Illustrative Inputs Only
Scope: Amazon US private-label 750 ml insulated bottle, first order 500 units, destination Los Angeles. The two quote rows are hypothetical seller-provided examples for demonstrating normalization. They are not actual supplier offers or verified candidates.
SPEC-LOCK
Must-have: 750 ml; 304 stainless interior; food-contact documentation matched to the exact product/material; leak-resistant lid with agreed test; laser logo; retail box; carton labels.
Target: landed cost at or below $8.50; sample in 14 days; production no more than 35 days; MOQ at or below 500.
Flexible: negotiate packaging specification, sample charge credit, and order tiers.
Unknown: bottle dimensions/weight, exact steel grade evidence, lid materials, leak-test method, packaging drop protection, destination duty classification, Incoterm named place/version, freight, duties, inspection and prep costs.
Quote normalization
| Item | A (seller-supplied example) | B (seller-supplied example) | Decision impact |
|---|---|---|---|
| Quantity basis | 500 units | 1,000 minimum | Not like-for-like; B fails target MOQ unless a 500-unit tier is negotiated |
| Unit price | $4.20 | $3.80 | B is lower by $0.40 at its own MOQ; not a comparable 500-unit quote |
| Merchandise at stated quantity | $2,100 | $3,800 | Excludes freight, duty, brokerage, inspection, prep, and other unknowns |
| Sample / setup | $180 + $250 logo setup | $90 sample + $300 tooling | Clarify sample type, refund/credit, tooling ownership and amortization |
| Packaging | Retail box included (spec unknown) | Excluded | Request identical packaging and labeling scope |
| Trade term | FOB port not named | EXW named place not supplied | Obtain named place and Incoterms version before landed-cost comparison |
| Timing/payment | 30d production; 30/70 | 25d production; 50/50 | Clarify sample/tooling/pre-production/QC/freight timeline; compare payment protections |
A’s known arithmetic at its quoted tier is $2,100 merchandise + $430 stated sample/setup = $2,530 before all unquoted logistics and quality/compliance costs. Do not mix one-time sample/setup with recurring unit economics: $430 / 500 = $0.86 per unit only if fully allocated to this first order. B’s known values cannot support an apples-to-apples first-order total because its 1,000-unit MOQ and excluded packaging differ. No landed-cost winner can be established yet.
Evidence and risk snapshot (SOURCE-16)
No legal names, URLs, registration, documents, samples, audit, certificate numbers, or independent evidence were supplied. Both supplier identities/types, capacity, quality system, compliance, and authorization remain
UNKNOWN; “claims manufacturer” is
SUPPLIER-CLAIMED only. Confidence:
INSUFFICIENT. Request business registration and matching beneficiary details; facility and subcontracting evidence; product-specific food-contact reports with model/material scope, lab, date and validity; written capacity and lead-time basis; and references or authorized inspection. Do not treat a badge as proof.
Fair RFQ and next steps
Send the same locked specification and 500/1,000/2,500-piece quantity ladder to each candidate. Require itemized unit price, sample and tooling, logo, retail/carton packaging, MOQ, capacity, component/material details, test reports, defect remedy, inspection access, production stages, payment milestones, Incoterm with named place/version, quote validity, freight estimate, and all excluded charges. Ask A for an exact FOB named port and B for a 500-unit quote with identical packaging. Obtain samples, run the same leak/dimension/finish/packaging checks, approve a golden sample, and use pre-shipment inspection before final balance where negotiated. Independently verify destination compliance, tariff classification, Amazon prep/label rules, and any applicable product-safety requirements with qualified sources. No sourcing award is justified until evidence and comparable landed quotes are complete.

About this skill
Amazon Supplier Hunter turns a product requirement into a defensible sourcing plan. It separates must-have specifications from preferences, identifies the appropriate sourcing model, and helps discover candidate manufacturers, trading companies, distributors, wholesalers, brands, and agents from accessible public or user-provided evidence. Supplier listings and badges are treated as claims, not proof.
For each candidate, the agent builds a source-dated evidence record, classifies supplier type, checks identity and capability claims where evidence permits, and labels every material claim as verified, supplier-claimed, estimated, derived, or unknown. It assesses product fit, manufacturing capability, quality systems, compliance readiness, MOQ, price, tooling, lead time, capacity, payment, logistics, Amazon preparation, IP and resale authorization, and supply resilience.
It prepares a consistent RFQ, normalizes quotes for currency, quantity, packaging, tooling, Incoterms, freight, duty, payment and lead time, and estimates landed cost using disclosed inputs. It identifies hidden costs, MOQ cash exposure, sample and inspection plans, compliance questions, authenticity documentation, negotiation points, and primary/backup sourcing strategies. Comparisons are only meaningful when quotes match the same specification and commercial assumptions.
The agent never invents suppliers, contacts, certifications, quotes, capabilities, audits, or authorizations. Unknowns stay unknown. A marketplace profile or badge does not establish legitimacy; a certificate or report must match the product, holder, scope, site, and validity. Samples and inspections reduce uncertainty but do not guarantee future production. Amazon acceptance, legal compliance, product safety, and freedom to operate are never guaranteed. Verify current requirements with official sources and qualified professionals for regulated products or contractual questions. Use lawful public or authorized access only; it does not send RFQs or contact suppliers without user approval.
