Physical Comodity Trading

Hey guys,

My first post here. I was looking at commodity trading and had a few questions if you guys here know.

Say you find a product in the US that costs $10, which you can sell for $15 in China.

IF we buy a 1000 of those are there any banks that can finance this deal for the intermediate trader?

In addition, what is a back to back LC and how does it work?

Thanks a lot guys!
