The wholesale price of magnetic tiles changes with the exact component size and shape mix, piece count, materials and decoration, accessories, packaging version, carton configuration, order quantity and customization. Buyers get a useful comparison only when suppliers quote the same specification. A low unit price is not comparable if the contents, package, carton or service scope is different.
Start with the product inside the package
Piece count is visible, but it does not describe everything being purchased. Two sets can list the same number of pieces while using different tile sizes, shapes, printed parts, figures, wheels or other accessories. The complete component list is the reliable comparison point.
| Quote variable | What can differ | What the buyer should verify |
|---|---|---|
| Tile format | Dimensions, thickness, geometry and connection design | Model reference, close-up photos and measurements |
| Contents | Piece count, shape mix, printed pieces, figures and accessories | Full component list for the quoted SKU |
| Materials and finish | Selected materials, colour treatment and printed decoration | Sample and written material/finish specification |
| Packaging | Reusable tin, color box, sleeve, insert, booklet or display format | Exact packaging version and artwork scope |
| Carton | Units per carton, dimensions, gross/net weight and packing method | Current carton sheet for the selected version |
| Order scope | Quantity, stock route, customization and inspection needs | One written RFQ applied to every quotation |
Packaging versions must be quoted separately
A reusable tin-box Travel Set and a color-box version of a similar product are not the same commercial item. The package size, artwork, internal packing and carton configuration may change. Some models may have both versions, but buyers should keep separate records for their images, dimensions, units per carton, outer carton and weights.
Only confirmed tin-box versions belong in MagBlockPro's Travel Magnetic Tiles range. Color-box products should be compared through the general product catalogue, not described as reusable-tin Travel Sets.
Carton configuration affects the buying decision
A one-carton MOQ does not mean every carton contains the same number of retail boxes. Units per carton depend on the SKU and packaging version. The product price also should not be separated from carton efficiency when a buyer is planning storage, fulfilment or freight.
For every shortlisted SKU, ask for:
- Retail units per carton.
- Outer-carton length, width and height.
- Carton gross and net weight.
- Retail package dimensions.
- Whether the quote covers a tin, color box or display version.
- Current stock and dispatch basis.
Do not copy carton figures from a similar-looking product. Request current model-matched details when a carton sheet has not yet been verified.
Order quantity and availability change the quote route
Eligible regular models may start from one carton, subject to current inventory and order details. Units per carton vary by SKU. For confirmed in-stock models, the normal 3–7 day dispatch window means release from our side after order conditions and stock are confirmed; it is not transport time or a promised arrival date.
A replenishment order for an existing packaging version is different from a private-label project. Special colours, new product development and custom packaging may have their own quantities, sampling, costs and timing.
Private label adds a defined project scope
MagBlockPro can evaluate private-label and custom packaging options such as logo labels, cards, instructions, sleeves, color boxes or tin artwork. Feasibility, MOQ, samples, charges, production and dispatch timing must be confirmed for the selected model, packaging version, design requirements and quantity.
When comparing quotations, state which elements are included. Otherwise, one offer may cover a standard package while another includes artwork or additional printed materials.
Compliance documents must match the model and market
Document availability can affect product selection and the work required before import. EN 71, CPC, CPSC-related testing and CE documentation may be available for applicable models; exact coverage must be verified by model and destination market. Buyers should confirm the model identity, document version, test scope, age grading and destination requirements instead of treating one file as universal coverage.
Review the quality and compliance process before requesting documents for a shortlisted model.
Use one quote-comparison sheet
Send every supplier the same fields and keep unconfirmed data blank rather than filling it with assumptions:
- Product model or reference image
- Tile dimensions and complete contents
- Standard, tin-box, color-box or display packaging
- Order quantity and destination country/market
- Units per carton, carton measurements and weights
- Private-label or custom packaging requirements
- Requested model-specific compliance documents
- Sample, stock and dispatch requirements
This separates a genuine price difference from a specification difference.
Frequently asked questions
Why do two sets with the same piece count have different wholesale prices?
The pieces may differ in dimensions, shape mix, materials, printing, accessories and packaging. Carton configuration, order quantity and customization can also change the quote.
Does a tin box always cost the same as a color box?
No. Packaging cost and carton efficiency depend on the exact size, construction, artwork and packing method. Treat them as separate versions.
Can regular magnetic tile models start from one carton?
Eligible regular models may start from one carton, subject to stock and order confirmation. The number of retail boxes in that carton varies by SKU and packaging version.
What should I send for an accurate quote?
Send the model or reference image, destination market, estimated quantity, packaging version and any private-label requirements. Ask for current model-matched carton details.
Request a model-matched quotation
Send your target model or reference image, destination market, expected quantity, preferred packaging version and customization needs. MagBlockPro can then confirm the relevant SKU, current carton details, stock route and quotation scope.
