Frequently asked questions
How shopping agents work, what the labels on these listings mean, and how this site makes its money. If something here contradicts Oopbuy's own pages, believe theirs.
What is Oopbuy?
Oopbuy is a shopping agent. Chinese marketplaces such as Taobao, Weidian and 1688 mostly sell within mainland China and will not ship abroad, so an agent buys the item on your behalf, receives it at their warehouse, and forwards it to you internationally. You pay the agent for the item, then pay again later for the shipping line you pick once the parcel is in their warehouse.
What is Oopspread, and do you sell anything?
No. Oopspread is a directory. We collect listings from publicly shared community spreadsheets, clean up the names, group them by category and brand, and link each one to its page on Oopbuy. We hold no stock, take no payment and ship nothing — every purchase happens on Oopbuy under their terms. There are currently 6,934 listings here across 100 brands.
Is Oopbuy legit?
Oopbuy is an established agent with a working platform, warehouse and support channels, and orders placed through it do arrive. That is a statement about the agent, not about any individual seller: the agent buys whatever the listing points at, so the quality of what you receive depends on the seller behind the link. We reproduce listings from spreadsheets and do not test products ourselves, so treat every listing as a starting point to check rather than a recommendation.
How does shipping work?
Shipping is arranged by Oopbuy, not by us. In outline: your items arrive at their warehouse, you combine them into one parcel, and you choose from the shipping lines they offer, which differ in price, speed and what they will carry. Cost depends on weight, volume and destination, so it is only quoted once your parcel is packed. We do not publish rates or delivery estimates here because both change constantly and only Oopbuy's own checkout is authoritative.
What are QC photos?
QC stands for quality check. When your item reaches the agent's warehouse, staff photograph the actual unit and post the pictures to your account, so you can inspect it before paying to ship it. If it is wrong or damaged you can raise it with support at that point rather than after it has crossed a border. Where a listing on this site is marked as having QC photos, that means the source spreadsheet included community-shared checks for that item — they are someone else's unit, not yours.
What do batch labels like "Best batch" mean?
A batch label is community shorthand for a particular factory's run of an item. Different factories produce the same design to different standards, and buyers compare them and settle on names like "best batch" or "budget batch" for the version they rate. These labels come from the source spreadsheets — they are opinions from the buying community, not a graded standard and not a claim we verify.
Why are the prices in dollars when Oopbuy charges in yuan?
Listings are priced in Chinese yuan at the source. We show an approximate US dollar conversion to make browsing and comparing easier, and display the yuan figure alongside it. The conversion is indicative only, and the price on the Oopbuy page when you order is the one you pay.
Do the links cost me anything extra?
No. Product links here are affiliate links carrying the referral code ECXETGSB8. If you buy after following one, Oopbuy may pay us a commission. It comes out of their margin, not your total, and the price you pay is identical to arriving at the same listing without a referral. We disclose this on every page rather than burying it.
A link is broken or the item is sold out. Why?
Sellers relist, rename and delete items constantly, and the spreadsheets behind this site are snapshots taken at one moment. We drop listings whose link or image is already dead when the catalogue is built, but anything that disappears afterwards will stay here until the next rebuild. If a link lands somewhere unexpected, trust the Oopbuy page over our copy of it.
Are these items authentic?
We make no authenticity claim about anything listed. These are marketplace listings from third-party sellers, reproduced as the source spreadsheets described them, and brand names appear only to identify what a seller says an item is. This site is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or operated by any brand shown.
