The clip introduces shopping through Kakobuy using Taobao and 1688 listings.
The later screens move from an item purchase to a separate international parcel submission.
Before continuing: Keep an item budget and an international-delivery budget. A seller price does not show the delivered cost.
Open kakobuy.com and choose Sign Up in the top-right account area.
Enter your email address and complete the account fields shown on the platform.
Before continuing: Use an email address you can access and keep account and payment details on the official platform.
The video browses Taobao, copies a product URL and pastes it into the Kakobuy search bar.
It also compares Taobao and 1688 search results before opening an item.
Before continuing: For a pick from this spreadsheet, use View on Kakobuy and compare the original seller URL. If the platform opens a manual order form for a Weidian source, enter the exact seller link and selected options.
Choose the colour, size and quantity on the item page. Use Add to Cart or proceed to Checkout.
Review the item order, domestic postage and payment screen before confirming the first payment.
Before continuing: Confirm the exact option and current amount. Payment methods, conversion rates and promotions in the recording may differ from your current checkout.
After the goods reach the warehouse, open the warehouse item and its QC photographs.
Compare the item reference, selected colour and size with your order before choosing goods for shipment.
Before continuing: Use the photos attached to your own order. Ask about unclear details or measurements before submitting international shipping; photo counts and arrival times depend on current terms.
Select the warehouse items, add your delivery address and review any protective packing options.
Compare the available shipping methods, check the parcel information and submit the shipment when the details are correct.
Before continuing: Confirm the final packed weight, route quote and included charges for your country. Keep the parcel record so you can follow tracking.
Choose a find from the spreadsheet and use “View on Kakobuy”. Match the seller listing, colour and size against the entry you saved. The listing you see at the agent is the one you are ordering; a spreadsheet title is only a reference. If a link no longer resolves, stop and choose another entry.
Plan both payments before you order
There are two separate stages: paying for the item and domestic delivery, then paying for the overseas parcel. A low item price does not tell you the delivered cost. Make a shortlist and write down your maximum total budget before committing. Use our budget worksheet to keep the missing costs visible.
Choose the exact variant
Read the seller’s size chart and measure a similar item you already own. Save the chart and the selected options. For a listing that the agent cannot read automatically, use the manual order workflow on Kakobuy and describe the exact option clearly. Never assume the first product image is the selected variant.
Review the warehouse evidence
When the goods reach the warehouse, examine the photos for the item, colour, measurements and visible damage. Ask about any uncertainty before approving dispatch. Photos on a public spreadsheet belong to a different sample or order; your own warehouse inspection matters more.
Choose a parcel route deliberately
Check the current destination, restrictions, chargeable weight, cover and fee breakdown in Kakobuy’s shipping quote. Keep an order record and tracking reference. The timetable starts at different points for seller dispatch, warehouse handling and international carriage; do not add them up from an advertisement.
How would I check one spreadsheet entry?
Use the hoodie-and-sweatpants entry below to practise the decisions. This is an editorial walkthrough, not a completed customer order.
Open the entry, save it to your shortlist and note the style image. The reference price helps you compare entries; check the live price for your exact selection on Kakobuy.
Resolve what the set includes
Confirm whether the selected option includes both pieces and how their sizes are chosen. Compare the top’s chest and sleeves, then the bottoms’ waist and inseam. Record the answer before paying.
Review the two pieces before dispatch
Match the labels, colour and requested measurements in your own warehouse photos. If one piece differs, ask about the available next step before approving the parcel.
Save this entry, then use Use saved items in the budget worksheet. Leave unquoted shipping and charges unconfirmed.
What should I verify after opening a spreadsheet link?
Match the seller page and selected colour, size and quantity to the entry you saved. Read the current price for that exact option. If the page is unavailable or the variant cannot be identified, resolve that uncertainty before paying.
Can I estimate the final cost from the item price?
Use the item price as one component of a budget. Add known domestic delivery and payment costs, then obtain a parcel quote after the warehouse can assess the shipment. Keep unquoted charges marked as unknown rather than assuming they are included.
Confirm the warehouse item and your chosen options, resolve visible problems, and read the final route quote for your address. Save the inspection record and written route terms. Request clarification while the item is still accessible in the warehouse.
