1. Match the card to the current listing
Start by comparing the product name and main image on the card with the page that opens. Make sure the link still leads to the same type of item and not a replacement listing, a different model or an unavailable page.
2. Select the exact variant before comparing prices
A displayed marketplace price may apply only to one size, color, quantity or version. Select the option you actually want before using the price as a reference. For wholesale-oriented 1688 listings, also check minimum quantities and tiered pricing.
3. Read measurements and product details
Do not rely on a familiar size label alone. Compare any available measurements, material notes, package contents and seller descriptions. Save the exact option wording if it will be needed when submitting the order.
4. Keep the source link and reference images
Save the complete product URL and the clearest images of the selected variant. The marketplace link guide explains the differences between Taobao, Weidian and 1688 pages and the details worth recording from each source.
5. Review warehouse QC information
When an item reaches the warehouse, compare the inspection photos with the selected listing. Look at visible condition, color, shape, labels, measurements and accessories included in the package. The Sugargoo QC photo checklist provides a more detailed review process.
Final check before international shipping
- The received item matches the ordered product and selected variant.
- Visible condition and measurements are acceptable.
