An index, not a shop

I have been buying through Chinese agents since 2020 and writing down what arrived since 2022: weight, batch, seam, whether the seller answered, whether the QC set was honest. This site is that notebook, cleaned up and given a search box.

It covers one agent — Kakobuy — on purpose. A site that covers nine agents cannot tell you whether a specific pair of shoes has a tape measure in the photo. Narrow is the point.

How a row is checked

Every row is opened on the day of the snapshot. The product page has to resolve, the variants you would actually want have to be purchasable, and the price has to sit inside the normal band for that shelf. Rows that fail get a second look on the next snapshot and are retired if they fail again — a smaller index that works beats a larger one that does not.

QC evidence is attached where a warehouse set exists, and the count is published (48 sets at the last review) rather than described as "with QC photos". Where a set is missing, the row says so: an absent photo is information too.

The five rules

1. A row stays only if it resolves on two separate snapshots.
2. QC coverage is stated as a number, never as a slogan.
3. Every outbound link carries a ref parameter, and every page says so.
4. No "official" claims, no fake urgency, no countdown timers.
5. If a page cannot be useful without a purchase, it does not ship.
