Practical notes for buyers
The most common mistake is optimising for the first order instead of the fourth, which is where Vibe 5 economics actually settle.
Documentation is not paperwork for its own sake; on recycling and disposal it is the difference between a clean clearance and a delayed one.

Commercial terms
Lead times are a function of component availability as much as factory capacity, so buffers should reflect both.
Commercial terms are usually agreed in three parts: a deposit on confirmation, a balance before shipment and a stated validity window.
| Volume tier | Indicative unit level | Lead time |
|---|---|---|
| Carton (86 units) | Tier 1 | 30-45 days |
| Pallet (1084 units) | Tier 2 | 14-21 days |
| Container (15934 units) | Tier 3 | 30-45 days |
