Superbuy Review — China Shopping Agent, Consolidation & Global Shipping

How to use Superbuy

1. Step 1 — Find a product and submit the link

   Search the Superbuy Spreadsheet tool by keyword, or browse Taobao, Tmall or another supported Chinese platform directly and copy the product link. Paste it into Superbuy's order form, or use the browser assistant to add items to the agent cart as you browse. Superbuy also recognises Taobao and Tmall links pasted into its homepage. Pick the colour, size and quantity, and confirm which warehouse the item should go to: Guangdong for mainland goods, Hong Kong for goods already in Hong Kong or elsewhere.

2. Step 2 — Pay for the goods and domestic delivery

   You pay the item price plus the domestic shipping fee to the warehouse. Top up by card, Apple Pay, Wise, bank transfer, Alipay, WeChat Pay, Bitcoin or one of the supported local wallets. Wise and bank transfer are the cheapest top-up routes, while card and Apple Pay top-ups carry the highest reported surcharge. Alipay and WeChat top-ups have no fee but can take 1–60 minutes to credit. A buyer then places the order with the seller on your behalf.

3. Step 3 — Inspection, storage and optional extras

   When the item reaches the warehouse, Superbuy photographs it — three photos per item as standard, plus three more for Weidian orders — and weighs it into your storage account. Storage is free for 90 days, and paid extensions are available. You can add services such as removing shoeboxes, trimming loose threads, tag removal, ironing, detailed photography, QC video, reinforced or vacuum packaging and power-on testing for electronics. Note that any service that alters the item, including box or tag removal and power-on tests, makes it non-returnable.

4. Step 4 — Consolidate and ship out

   Once everything you want is in the warehouse, select the items and submit them as one parcel, entering your overseas address and choosing from the shipping lines that accept your contents. Freight is prepaid against an estimated weight, and any difference is settled against your balance after the parcel is packed and weighed. Compare routes by price and speed before confirming, since the choice of line and the packed volume usually decide the final bill.

Shopping-agent guide

## What Superbuy actually does Superbuy is a purchasing-and-forwarding service for shoppers outside China. You do not buy from Superbuy; you point it at someone else's listing. Submit a product link from Taobao, Tmall, 1688, Weidian, Xianyu, JD or another Chinese platform (unusual sources can be handled through a DIY order where you paste in the link and details yourself), and the platform buys the item on your behalf, has it delivered to its own warehouse, inspects it, and holds it until you are ready. ## Why the shipping side matters more than the buying side Basic purchasing fees are waived for life, which means the real cost of using Superbuy is international freight. That is why the workflow rewards patience: - Items land in the warehouse and stay there free for 90 days. - You keep ordering from other sellers during that window. - When you are ready, you select everything you want in the same parcel and submit one consolidated shipment. - Superbuy packs it, weighs it, and charges actual freight rather than three separate minimum charges. The deposit system is the part newcomers misread. Freight is prepaid against an estimated weight, and the difference is settled against your Superbuy balance once the parcel is packed and weighed. A refund is normal; a small extra charge is also normal. ## Choosing a line and packing for volume 100+ routes are available, covering more than 200 countries and regions, and the platform filters them so only lines that accept your specific goods are shown. Freight is generally calculated on the greater of actual weight and volumetric weight, so packaging choices matter as much as the route. Removing shoeboxes, vacuum compression and similar options can change the price significantly. Adding small, light, flat items — socks, underwear, phone cases — to an existing parcel often costs nothing extra and is one of the cheapest ways to use the service. ## Finding things to buy The Superbuy Spreadsheet tool is a search front-end over Chinese marketplace listings. Enter a keyword, filter by category and price, compare the returned rows (link, image, price, store) side by side, then copy the links you want into Superbuy to create the order. It removes the manual copy-paste loop of hunting through Taobao one listing at a time, and the tool is free to browse without an account. ## Practical cautions before you ship Choose extras carefully. Anything that changes the physical state of the goods — removing tags or shoeboxes, ironing, power-on testing — cancels the possibility of a return, so decide those before the item is processed. Storage extensions cost money, and items left long past the agreed window can be written off. Restricted categories such as counterfeits, large quantities of powders or liquids, electricals, drugs and food may be stopped by customs, and seized parcels are the buyer's risk. Second-hand platform orders carry a 20 CNY fee and no returns at all. Finally, treat every number on this page as a snapshot. The fee and payment data we recorded dates from September 2026, and agents in this sector revise rates, routes and promotions frequently. Always confirm current pricing on the agent's own fee page before you commit a large parcel.
