Looking at the increasingly popular gua sha market, have you started to get excited and plan to enter the gua sha market to earn huge profits? But don’t worry, here are a few things you must know before you start wholesale guasha tools and start a gua sha business.
These contents will solve a lot of trouble for your guasha wholesale process.
1. You Should Know These About the Gua Sha Wholesale Price!
I saw a very attractive wholesale price of a gua sha board on a website or a wholesale platform, and I plan to buy a lot of guasha tools from him! No, stop! Are you sure you can benefit from this price?
First of all, let’s think about what determines the price of gua sha tools?
1. Material
The material is the most critical factor in determining the price of the gua sha board. There is a large price gap between guasha boards of different materials. You may get a gua sha massager of some materials for as little as a dollar, while others may cost more than a dozen dollars. At present, there are three main types of gua sha materials on the market: stone, metal and plastic.
The material prices of metals and plastics are basically stable, because there is not much material subdivision in these two categories. And the stones are different, the materials of the stones are too many, and the price gap between different stones is also huge.
For example, for the same style of gua sha board, you can buy the green jade guasha board for no more than $1.50 (wholesale price). But if you buy an amethyst gua sha board, the price is usually not less than $4.50, three times the price difference.
If the wholesale price you see is due to different material prices, that’s fine, but if not, you need to be careful.
2. Quality
The quality of the gua sha board is also one of the main factors that determine the price. As mentioned earlier, if the price is low due to different materials, that’s fine, no problem. But if it is the same material and the same style, the price has obvious advantages over others, will you believe its quality?
How much difference is there between the prices of different quality gua sha massagers? As far as our factory is concerned, we will roughly set the quality of guasha boards into 5 grades. It can be described as A+, A, AB, B and C. There is a price difference of nearly 10% between each level. That is to say, the price of wholesale C-level gua sha board will be more than half cheaper than the price of wholesale A+ gua sha board.
For us, Grade A+ and Grade A are qualified products that we provide to our customers. Grade AB and Grade B will only be provided if the customer has specific requirements. Grade C is generally treated as defective products and generally will not flow into the product. market. So generally speaking, the wholesale price difference of the same style of gua sha board is 10%, if you do not clearly state that you need a slightly lower quality product.
So, if you see guasha boards that are priced significantly lower than other companies, and don’t talk about quality, you have good reason to believe that it is a defective product.
3. Supply chain
The location of the supply chain can also cause significant price differences. Generally, there are two supply chains:
Factory-Retailer-End Customer
Factory-Trader-Retailer-End Customer
Assuming your location is a supplier, the best price you can get is the first mode of supply, buying directly from the factory. If it is the second way, you need to pay an additional fee (not less than 30%). So if you want to wholesale gua sha tools at the best price, purchasing directly from the factory is the best way.
4. Style
In addition to the material, the style of the gua sha board is one of the main reasons for determining the price. If the gua sha board of the same material has different styles, the price will vary greatly.
For example, the wholesale price of a common V-shaped rose quartz gua sha massager is roughly between $2-2.50, while if you change to a concave-shaped style, the inspiration price is roughly between $6-7, which is about V-shaped. Gua sha board three times.
This phenomenon is mainly caused by three factors: production difficulty, time-consuming, and raw material cost. Generally speaking, the more expensive the style, the more difficult it will be to make, the longer it will take and the higher the cost of raw materials.
2. You Should Know About the Quality of Gua Sha
When discussing the price of gua sha, we focused on the reasons for quality, so we have a more in-depth understanding of some of the criteria for determining the quality of gua sha boards. The quality of guasha boards of different materials is also different. For example, gua sha plates such as stainless steel and plastic are basically free of defective products, and the quality is relatively stable. For stones, the criteria are more complicated.
1. Polish.
Polishing is the most critical factor in determining the quality of the gua sha board. In addition to making the appearance of the gua sha board more beautiful, the biggest purpose of good polishing is to protect the safety of users during use.
A and A+ quality gua sha boards: There is no obvious crack on the surface of the product, and the surface is smooth.
AB quality: There are some small cracks on the surface of the product, which do not affect normal use.
Quality B: There are obvious cracks on the surface of the guasha board, but it does not affect the normal use of the guasha board.
C quality: There are obvious cracks on the surface, which will affect the normal use and safety of the gua sha board.
Please try to avoid buying gua sha boards with AB quality.
2. Color
For quality, the color of the guasha board is not the most important factor. Relatively speaking, color is only an important indicator to determine the quality of Gua Sha A+ and A. For example, although the color of a gua sha board is not very good, if its polishing can reach the A-level standard, then it will also be rated as A-level, and if its color is very good, but the polishing does not meet the A-level standard , then it cannot be classified as a Class A product.
Different gua sha boards have different requirements for color. The following are the color standards of several common guasha boards:
Rose Quartz: Generally, the pinker the rose quartz, the better. If the overall transparency of the gua sha board is high, and the color is light, it is also a good quality.
Amethyst: Generally speaking, the more purple the color, the better. Of course, transparency is also an important factor in determining its quality.
White crystal: For white crystal, there is no difference in color depth, the only thing that can be used as a criterion is its transparency. The more transparent, the higher the quality.
Green jade: Although it is called green jade, its color judgment standard is not the greener the better. Usually, lighter colors are better than darker ones.
Obsidian: Color is not a quality criterion at all because it is pure black.
3. Appearance
Each style of guasha board has a standard shape, and the closer it is to a standard gua sha board, the better. Although the shape of the gua sha board is very important, it is not the key factor in determining the quality. As long as it is within a reasonable error range, the change of the shape will not affect the quality of guasha. Therefore, the shape of the gua sha board has no grades, only the difference between qualified and unqualified.
3. What You Should Know About the Transportation of Ccrystal Gua Sha Tool
The shipping conditions of the crystal gua sha board are not harsh. As a crystal material, there are not too many requirements for moisture resistance, temperature, etc., the only thing you may need to worry about is the bumping problem during transportation. However, usually when the supplier packs the goods, they will use safety packaging to ensure that there is no direct friction and collision between each guasha board.
Which shipping method is suitable for gua sha? all! You can use any method to transport the gua sha tool, whether it is air, sea or land, as long as this mode of transportation can reach the destination.
At present, the two most commonly used modes of transportation are air freight and sea freight.
Air Freight: The fastest transportation, the highest price, and the highest security. It is suitable for orders with small quantities of products and urgent needs. It usually takes less than a week from shipment to destination.
Sea freight: the longest shipping time and the cheapest price. It is suitable for orders with large quantity of products and less urgent demand. It usually takes about 20 days to a month from shipment to destination.
How to choose the shipping method that is right for you?
Decide according to your needs. If you have a small order and need to receive the goods in a short time, then air freight is the best choice. And if your orders are huge and you don’t need to get them in a short time, ocean shipping is the best option.
Of course, there are still many issues that need to be considered. For example, if you have a paper gift box in your order, moisture resistance is a very important factor. At this time, air freight can better meet your needs than sea freight.
4. What You Should Know About Gua Sha Customization
Are gua sha customization requirements high? Not high. In fact, among the inquiries from the customers we contacted, nearly 60% of the customers want to customize Gua Sha, and we can basically meet their needs. Before customizing Gua Sha, you should consider these factors:
- Customized requirements. What kind of customization do you need. Logo engraved on the product? Custom product packaging? Customize the shape of the gua sha tool?

- Price. Custom words usually require an additional fee. The cost of custom logo is the lowest, generally $1.5/pc and below.
