How do you tell someone that only speaks Chinese that you want to buy what they make? Just made my first international call to China. I was totally unprepared.

Making progress. Kind of makes me feel bad that I can't speak to them easily.

go to local chineese resteraunt and ask them to make the call for you for a couple bucks. Might get hit but it may work.

You know, I probably could do that. The folks at New China are nice.
