Shipping, storage and QC
Storage: 90 days free (up to 180 days), then daily fees apply — consolidate before the free window closes. QC: 3 free photos per item; ask for extra angles on hardware, tags and stitching. Processing: 1-2 days from payment to warehouse intake.
Shipping lines (sample): DHL, EMS, FedEx, UPX, GD-EMS, EUB, Sea Freight — availability depends on weight, destination and parcel dimensions.
A 0% service fee does not mean the cheapest landed cost. Compare item + fee + domestic shipping + international freight + duties for your exact cart and route.
Marketplaces, payments and languages
Accepted marketplaces: Weidian, Taobao. Paste the raw weidian.com/item.html?itemID=… link straight into the buy field — no reformatting needed.
Payment methods: Alipay, WeChat Pay, PayPal. Some agents add a 2–4% surcharge on card or PayPal payments; bank transfer is slower but cheaper on large hauls.
