Short answers to the most common ACbuy Spreadsheet questions. Use the search above to jump to a specific topic.
AboutWhat is ACbuy.net / the ACbuy Spreadsheet?
ACbuy.net is an independent ACbuy Spreadsheet and product-discovery site. It organizes 17,000+ verified product links from trusted Chinese sellers on Weidian, Taobao and 1688, so you can quickly find what you want and buy it through a shopping agent. It is a guide and discovery platform — not a store.
AboutIs ACbuy.net the same as ACbuy.com?
No. ACbuy.net is an independent spreadsheet/discovery website. ACbuy.com is a shopping-agent platform. We help you find product links and explain how the ACbuy agent works, but we are a separate site and do not operate the agent service ourselves.
AboutDoes ACbuy.net sell products or handle payment and shipping?
No. We do not sell anything, take payments, or ship parcels. You place your order, pay and arrange shipping on the agent platform you choose. The agent purchases the item, inspects it (QC), stores it and ships it internationally.
AboutIs ACbuy.net free to use?
Yes, browsing ACbuy.net is completely free. We earn nothing on your purchase — any cost (item price, service fee, international shipping) is paid on the agent platform you choose.
SpreadsheetWhere do the spreadsheet links come from?
Links are curated from trusted sellers and factories on Weidian, Taobao and 1688, based on real community feedback and sales data. We update regularly and filter out unreliable listings to save you time.
SpreadsheetHow often is the spreadsheet updated?
Daily. New sellers, restocks, price changes and trending items get reviewed and merged into the W2C index every day. Watch the
News page for major updates.
SpreadsheetCan I paste a Taobao or Weidian link directly?
Yes. On ACbuy you can paste any Taobao, Weidian or 1688 link in the search bar and submit an order — you are not limited to items already on the spreadsheet.
SpreadsheetWhy was a product I bookmarked removed?
Removed listings usually mean the seller went out of stock, quality dropped, or community feedback turned negative. You can still order via a pasted link directly, but consider checking the seller’s rating first.
BuyingHow do I use the ACbuy Spreadsheet to buy something?
Browse categories or search the
spreadsheet to find a product, open it with your preferred agent, choose options and order. The agent handles purchasing, warehouse receiving and QC. After QC, submit your parcel, pay international shipping and wait for delivery. See the full
buying guide.
BuyingHow do I confirm an order when ACbuy asks?
When the agent needs a quick check (color change, small price difference, stock note) you get a Confirmation Needed message. Copy the AI number, review and reply within about 72 hours so the order is not cancelled.

BuyingWhat if my item is out of stock at the seller?
The agent will message you with the seller’s response. You can pick a different color/size, swap to a similar listing, or cancel for a refund. Items never charged are auto-refunded to your wallet.
BuyingWhere can I find discounts or special offers?
New users get a CN¥1,000 ACbuy gift pack including up to $350 off international shipping. Watch the
News page for ongoing promotions across supported agents.
QCHow do I get QC photos?
After your item reaches the ACbuy warehouse you get 3–5 free QC photos. You can request paid additional angles or video, and approve or reject the item before shipping.
QCHow long can items stay in the warehouse?
Up to 90 days of free storage. Use this to consolidate multiple finds into one international parcel and save on freight. After 90 days storage fees apply.
QCAn item arrived missing from my parcel — what now?
Open a case from the parcel page within 7 days of delivery and submit the QC ID. Most missing-item cases are resolved with a refund or reshipment once the warehouse audit completes.

QCWhat if QC shows the item is defective?
Reject the QC photo and request a return-to-seller. ACbuy contacts the seller for replacement or refund. Some minor factory cosmetics (e.g. open or closed buttonholes on jeans) are normal — see the buttonhole guide before rejecting.
QCCan I request video QC or more photos?
Yes — extra QC angles or short video clips are available as paid add-ons. Buy them from the stored item page before submitting the parcel.
ShippingHow do I submit a parcel and pick a shipping line?
From your warehouse page, select stored items, choose packaging and add-ons, set the declaration value and pick from 150+ shipping lines. Use Rehearsal Packing to lock in the actual weight before paying.
Submit-a-parcel walkthrough →
ShippingWhat is Rehearsal Packing?
A trial-pack service that locks in the real parcel weight, dimensions and shipping price before you pay. ACbuy packs your items, generates the data in ~3 days, then you confirm the route and pay.
ShippingWhy was my parcel held or returned by China customs?
A small share of parcels get inspected or returned by China customs for declared value, restricted items or random checks. ACbuy notifies you with the return status so you can re-declare, split the parcel or refund.
ShippingHow do I track my parcel after it ships?
ACbuy gives you the carrier tracking number on the parcel page. Plug it into your carrier’s site; for stuck status, contact your local post office — they update faster than asking the warehouse.
ShippingWill I pay customs duty in my country?
Possibly. Most lines ship DDU (duty unpaid). When your parcel arrives, your country may charge VAT or duty based on declared value. Brazil and EU have stricter rules — check your country’s threshold or pick a DDP line if available.
ShippingWhat are sensitive / restricted items?
Liquids, magnets, electronics with batteries, food, branded items and oversized goods are restricted on many lines. The shipping route filter shows which lines accept each category. When in doubt, contact ACbuy support before paying.
AccountHow do I verify my account and set a payment password?
From Account → Security, verify your email and set a 6-digit payment password. Verification is required before larger orders and is a one-time setup.

AccountMy account was locked due to a chargeback — what now?
A chargeback freezes the account until the dispute is resolved. Contact ACbuy support with the dispute ID. If you want to cancel and refund, the account-lock guide explains the steps.
