These are the prices printed on the partner listings on the day we checked them — not a quote. Agent fees and international shipping are added at checkout, so the delivered total is always higher than the listed number.

What the listed price does not include

Cost lineWhat to expect
Agent service feeA percentage of the item price, charged when the agent buys for you.
Domestic shippingSeller to the agent warehouse, usually a few dollars per parcel.
International shippingCharged by weight and line — this is the line that surprises first-time buyers.
Currency conversionYour bank or payment provider sets the rate; the CNY 7.15 per $1 figure here is only a reference.

The honest summary: a CNY 228 costume is not a $32 costume delivered. Budget the listed price plus shipping, and treat anything cheaper as a bonus rather than the plan.

Looks people are buying

① Where does the saving come from?

The partner buys from Chinese marketplaces and ships in bulk. Part of the gap is sourcing, part is that the same item is simply listed lower there — and part disappears once you add shipping.

② How do I order?

Open a listing → register → pay → review warehouse QC photos → ship. Three steps, no Chinese required.

③ Is it safe?

You see real photos before paying for international shipping. We are not affiliated and cannot guarantee any product — check the policy first.

Frequently asked questions

Why are the partner listings cheaper?

The partner sources from Chinese marketplaces (Taobao, Weidian, 1688) where the same look is listed at a lower price. You pay an agent to buy, inspect and ship it.

How long does shipping take?

Typical international shipping is 1-3 weeks depending on the line you choose. Budget lines take longer; check the partner site for current options.

Is it safe to order through a spreadsheet?

You review warehouse QC photos before paying for shipping, so you see the actual item first. We are not affiliated with the sellers and cannot guarantee any product.

What if the size is wrong?

Measure against the seller's size chart first. Returns are handled case by case on the partner platform; check their policy before buying.

Do I need an account?

Yes — buying happens on the partner platform, so you register there. Browsing our guides is always free and needs no account.
