What does a buyer have to specify before a factory can quote?
Short answer
Body diameter, strand count and length, material, colorways, hook specification, weight, rigging method and pack format.
In detail
A photograph is not a specification: it states none of these.
Where this answer comes from
Part of the product record Urchin baits: the 2026 category that arrived from Japan (Urchin baits). The record carries the tables this answer is drawn from, the fields a factory needs before quoting, and an explicit list of what has not been verified.
Products that solve this
Sampled listings from the same product family (Urchin baits). Reference price per unit with the MOQ stated; a quotation against your specification governs a transaction.
All soft lure listings · factory identity is released after a trade account is approved.
