Columbia Exhaust Flex Pipe Customer Transaction Case Show

In international trade, especially when sourcing technical products like exhaust flex pipes, we understand that customers value not only the quality of the products but also the quality of communication and service. At every stage—from inquiry to delivery—our priority is to ensure that our clients feel supported, informed, and confident in their decisions.


We are eager to share some snippets from a recent client transaction with you. Although the process was quite challenging, we ultimately earned the client's trust, which is something we’ve always cared deeply about.Welcome contact us via WHATSAPP or email!

The first inquiry and a clear response

A customer reached out to us with a request for exhaust flex pipes, attaching a simple image of six different designs with connecting pipes. He was interested in 300 pieces per model, totaling 1,800 units. From the appearance of the products, we deduced that price might be a sensitive factor, so we provided a reasonable price, along with sea freight options, copying the inquiry to relevant colleagues.

Despite the detailed response, the customer didn’t reply immediately. Sensing the possibility of hesitation over price, we followed up two days later via WhatsApp, attaching a screenshot of his original inquiry so he could quickly recall why we were reaching out. This direct yet non-intrusive approach worked, and the customer responded, asking if we could provide samples.

We confirmed whether the customer had a courier account to cover shipping or whether we should handle it and sent over the shipping cost options. The customer initially requested two samples of each size, which we agreed to, and after providing a cost comparison for different quantities, he was comfortable proceeding with two samples for each of the six models.

Handling customer feedback and adjusting the offer

After the samples were delivered, the customer raised a concern about the thickness of the exhaust flex pipes. One sample was 1.5mm thick, and another was 1.2mm, which wasn’t something we knew at the time. Upon investigation, we confirmed with our factory that the final product could meet the requested thickness of 1.5mm. We communicated this assurance back to the customer, along with responses to their other queries about product tolerances after verifying with the factory.

During further discussions, the customer mentioned that their father had advised which sizes were the most popular in their local market. Based on this feedback, we recalculated the quantities and adjusted the pricing slightly to reflect the customer’s needs, while also giving an updated sea freight cost for their reference. Although the order quantity was reduced, we maintained our initial pricing as a gesture of goodwill to support a potential long-term relationship.

Overcoming obstacles and finalizing the deal

Despite the revised offer, the customer remained silent for a while, and even when he returned, he provided a target price that was far lower than what we had initially discussed. We politely but firmly declined, explaining the value of our product in terms of quality and flexibility. As the customer wasn’t very responsive, we continued following up regularly through different channels, ensuring our communication remained professional and non-pushy.

By mid-June, we introduced a 30th-anniversary promotion to encourage him to make a decision, though it didn’t immediately result in a response. Finally, after some persistent follow-ups, the customer replied, but a few days later, communication halted again. However, we didn’t give up, and when we received an inquiry from another customer in the same city who was interested in 50 units, it provided us with a fresh opportunity to reconnect. We used this new development to engage the customer again, and he responded positively.

After confirming the order, we encountered another challenge when a bank error delayed payment for over two weeks. Nonetheless, through clear and patient communication, we resolved the issue, and by August 2, the payment was confirmed, bringing the deal to a successful close.
