It dawned on me, about 2 minutes into the Alibaba sourcing event that perhaps I should have ducked out. But the cheap, hungry (not ambitious hungry, just hungry) entrepreneur in me decided to stay under the stipulation that free food would soon follow. With my stomach growling and my DressMonkey blazer feeling nice and comfortable, I settled in for the long haul. Though there were select moments of interesting tidbits, the overall presentation and "ice breaking games," gave me a little reminder as to why I left the corporate stratosphere. Stale, recycled air along with some absolutely atrocious Chinglish left me ready for the food at the end. However I might complain, the presentation did teach me about dealing with Chinese suppliers and I will definitely be following up on some of this when DressMonkey gets a little bigger. So if you ever want to buy 10,000 or more of anything in the world from dildos to anal beads, my advice is to check out alibaba.com.
