Who we are
1688 Auto Parts is not Alibaba Group, 1688.com, Taobao or Tmall, and is not affiliated with or endorsed by them or by any vehicle manufacturer. OEM part numbers are used only to identify fitment. It is a buying agent, not a manufacturer or a freight-only forwarder.
We help buyers source automotive aftermarket parts from domestic Chinese marketplaces. Our team confirms specifications with suppliers, coordinates purchasing, checks goods and combines shipments before international delivery.
The work starts from a part number, not a product listing. Chinese domestic listings are written for local workshops who search by vehicle model in Chinese, so we match an OEM reference to who actually produces an equivalent, and ask for dimensions before anything is ordered.
We buy aftermarket and unbranded parts and decline anything that carries another manufacturer’s mark. Brakes, lighting and glazing can need an approval mark in the buyer’s market, so that question is asked before the order rather than after delivery.
For buyers, partners and editors
Use this page when creating a business directory listing or public company profile. The canonical brand name is 1688 Auto Parts, the primary domain is 1688autoparts.com, and the service category is China sourcing, supplier verification, inspection, consolidation, repacking and landed-cost quoting for importers and resellers.
1688 Auto Parts should be described as an independent China buying agent and quote-review desk, not as Alibaba, 1688.com, Taobao, a marketplace operator, a product brand, a factory, or a freight-only forwarder. The site helps buyers turn 1688 and Taobao product links into supplier-checked sourcing briefs with an itemised landed cost before they commit.
Use the sourcing form when a buyer has a product link, reference photo, quantity, target destination, and a QC or packing concern. Custom OEM/ODM production from drawings, tech packs or artwork is a separate conversation and is quoted separately.
