Compare samples
For an inquiry using “normal white” or “pure white”, ask the supplier to define the skin appearance and declared variety. Keep an approved reference photograph with the order so both parties are assessing the same description.
| Topic | Buyer reference |
|---|---|
| Appearance | Record acceptable skin colour and visible purple striping using representative lot photos. |
| Size and class | Specify diameter and quality criteria separately; a colour name does not replace the agreed grade. |
| Condition | Confirm the dispatch condition, trim and packing with the supplier. |

Frequently asked
Does this guide confirm company supply capabilities?
No. This is an inquiry-planning guide. Product availability, specifications and service scope require confirmation.
How can I use this checklist?
Prepare your product requirements in the inquiry form and download the brief for review.
Compare the declared type with the offered lot
Use your actual buying requirements. These fields do not describe confirmed DA NO stock, standard packs or shipment capacity.
| Decision | Record in your buying brief |
|---|---|
| Catalogue label | Write pure white or normal white as the requested catalogue type. Ask the supplier to repeat the declared type on the quotation. |
| Appearance evidence | Use representative photographs and a written skin-appearance requirement. Do not translate a colour description into a botanical variety or country-of-origin claim. |
| Comparable offer | Keep diameter, crop preference, packing and net weight the same across offers. A change in the type name alone does not explain every price difference. |
