SneakersPhotographs never settle sizing. Get the insole length in centimetres first.
Jackets & CoatsShell, down or fleece moves the shipping weight far more than the size does.
HoodiesThin cotton and heavy cotton photograph identically. The stated weight is the tell.
T-ShirtsThe easiest thing to add to a batch, and the easiest to forget you added.
JeansSellers measure flat, so a waist and an inseam are two numbers, never one.
SweatpantsSold in packs as often as singly. Check whether the link means one pair or three.
WomenswearMost lists carry no menu of its own for it, so it arrives as a search, not an aisle.
JerseysTeam, season and player sit in one line of the title. Read that line twice.
BagsHardware and lining are where two listings of the same bag stop matching.
HatsOne size fits most is a claim, not a measurement. Look for a circumference.
BeltsBelt sizes are quoted as total strap length, which is not your waist size.
EyewearThe case takes up more room in the carton than the glasses inside it do.
PerfumeLiquids are a limited category rather than a free one. The operator asks you to check first.
JewellerySmall, light, added late. Also the first thing to lose track of once a batch grows.
WatchesThe case size in the title is not the strap size. They are separate measurements.
ElectronicsMagnetic components sit on the restricted list, so read it before this kind of link goes in.No categories match

The door
One box takes a product name and a pasted address, and those are two different errands
The operator runs a single search box across the top of its own site, and its placeholder asks for either a product name or a link. Those are not the same errand. A name returns a list of candidate items and leaves the choosing to you. A pasted address returns exactly one listing, the one somebody else already chose, along with whatever that seller decided to put in the title.
The small round badges inside the right-hand end of the box name the sources it reads, and the camera icon next to them searches by picture instead of by words. The operator's own ten-step guide opens with the same two routes in step one: paste a link from Taobao, Weidian or 1688, or type a name and pick from what comes back.
Which route you took decides how much of the work is already done for you, and how much of it you never saw. That is the whole of the next page.

A batch is one weight and one parcel count, whatever it cost to collect
Items bought separately do not travel separately. They arrive at the operator's warehouse one by one, get weighed and photographed, and sit there until you select some of them and ask for a parcel. At that moment the batch stops being a list and becomes a single billable weight.
This is why the cheap thing added at the end of a list is rarely cheap. It does not have its own shipping cost, it changes the whole parcel's cost. How the warehouse handles that, and what can leave the country at all, are the two pages that decide whether a list finishes.

What the operator says it charges for, in its own words
There are three named components and an opt-in fourth. The wording below is quoted rather than summarised, because the interesting part is the word "other" at the front of it.
No other fees will be charged except for product fees, international shipping fees, and customs clearance fees (please purchase value-added services as needed)
No page on this site repeats the figures that sit next to those words on the operator's page. Rates move, and a stale number is worse than no number. What does not move is the shape: goods and Chinese domestic delivery are settled first, the international leg is settled later, and the value-added services are things you switch on yourself.
The operator tells the whole journey in five moves, and two of them are payments
The five-move version below is the operator's own. Register, learn to find things, pay for the goods, pick items out of the warehouse, pay for the shipping. Read it once and the shape of the commitment is clear enough: you are buying twice, and the second price is not known when you agree to the first.
The same journey is published elsewhere on the same site as seven steps, and elsewhere again as ten. None of the versions is wrong. They just cut the same road at different places, which matters when somebody tells you they are "on step four". The three versions are laid side by side here.

Three things people ask before the first order
The rest are on the questions page, along with the words you will meet on the operator's screens and what each of them means.
Do I need an account before I can look at anything?
No. Browsing costs nothing and commits nothing. An account starts to matter at the point where money moves, because the first payment is what sends a buyer to the seller. Until then a link is only a link.
Is one payment enough?
No, and the operator does not pretend otherwise. Its own order page numbers the two payments as separate steps: pay for products at step three, pay the international shipping fee at step six. Budgeting for one payment is the most common way to end up with items sitting in a warehouse you cannot afford to empty. The step counts are compared here.
Who is speaking on this page?
The rules are OOTDBuy speaking, and every one of them carries a link back to the notice it was read on. The ordering, the warnings, and the places where two official pages say different things are this site speaking. Nothing here is a price, a rate or a delivery promise.
