If you are sourcing from us and selling Chinavasion products as your business, on your own website or on Amazon, eBay etc, you can use Chinavasion's product images. See our Fair Use Policy here. To use pictures, you should download /save the image and re-upload it wherever you are using it, on your website hosting or eBay etc. Don't hot link using the original Chinavasion image URL as it is not nice and your images might stop working if we see it.
Because they are awesome, Gold and Platinum level Chinavasion members can get a ZIP file of product images from each product page on our site. If you are a Gold or Platinum customer, check it out or ask your sales rep for help.
