Chinese Shipping Adress in Alibaba Order

Hi everyone, I am in the process of negotiation with a chinese seller an getting a product shipped from China to Amazon Warehouse. I contacted a chinese supplier through Alibaba and got an offer with a payment request through the Alibaba Trade Assurance. The seller put a chinese adress as the shipping adress in the order but told me he would ship it to the Amazon Warehouse in my Country. He said this saves him (and through this me) costs.

Now my Question is: Is this a scam of some sort ? Or is this a common tactic ? Could i get in trouble for this anyhow ?

Any help and tipps are apreciated 🙂

(I am in Germany btw if this is relevant)
