Hong Kong Cordyceps Buyback and Appraisal

Cordyceps Sinensis Buyback Price: How to Differentiate Nagqu, Yushu, and Broken Cordyceps

The price of cordyceps changes daily based on market demand, origin, and quality. Online reference prices can only give you an initial idea; the actual quote will depend on the physical product. When appraising cordyceps, Kam Hoi Shing first categorizes them by origin (Nagqu in Tibet, Yushu in Qinghai, or other regions), then assesses the number of pieces, color, plumpness, dryness, and the proportion of broken cordyceps.

Key Factors Affecting Cordyceps Price

Origin: Nagqu is usually more sought after, but the actual plumpness of the product still matters.
Number of Pieces: Fewer pieces mean larger individual cordyceps, usually leading to a higher unit price.
Color: Golden-yellow and natural, short grass head, and plump body will have an advantage.
Dryness: Fully dry with no musty smell, ensuring more stable preservation and transaction.
Proportion of Broken Cordyceps: Higher completeness results in a better quote.
