DHgate is a Chinese business-to-business (B2B) e-commerce platform that connects buyers, primarily overseas, with sellers, mostly based in China. It's a popular marketplace for finding a wide range of products, from electronics and clothing to home goods, often at competitive prices, especially for bulk purchases. While it's known for its direct-to-consumer approach and potential for lower prices, buyers should be aware of the need to carefully vet sellers to ensure product quality and reliability.
