Seven quick checks
AllChinaBuy Spreadsheet Checklist Before Saving a Find
Use this checklist before you save another product. One point for each “yes” is enough to show whether the row is ready, needs more work or should be removed.

Q
What to check
Look at the category, photos, sizing, price, likely shipping weight, description and your reason for keeping the item. A score below four means too many important details are still missing.
The seven-point checklist
Give one point for every honest “yes”
- Is this the type of item I meant to compare?
- Do the photos show the details that matter?
- Are sizing or measurements clear enough?
- Have I compared the price with similar items?
- Could packed weight change the value?
- Does the description say more than “best” or “popular”?
- Can I explain why I want to keep this row?
Score your row
Use the result as a filter
| Score | Decision |
|---|---|
| 6–7 | Keep on the shortlist |
| 4–5 | Check the missing details |
| 2–3 | Probably remove |
| 0–1 | Remove for now |
A high score only means the row is easier to compare. It is not a guarantee about the product or seller.
QC photos by category
The useful photo depends on the item
An AllChinaBuy quality check should answer product-specific questions. More photos are not automatically better if every image repeats the same angle.
Hoodies, shirts and jackets
Front, back, fabric close-up, print or embroidery detail, cuffs, closures and measurements matter.
Bags and accessories
Check shape, corners, seams, hardware, lining, fastening, dimensions and how the item looks without staging.
Two example rows
What the score looks like in practice
Good row example · 6/7
Hoodie with measurements and useful views
The row shows the front, back and fabric, includes chest width and length, and can be compared with similar hoodies. Weight is still only an estimate, so it loses one point.
Why save: the measurements and fabric photos make comparison easier.
Weak row example · 2/7
“Popular jacket” with one cropped image
The category is clear and the link opens, but there is no lining view, size method, weight clue or comparable product. Popularity is the only reason given.
Decision: remove it for now. Opening it again will not fill the missing details.
One-sentence save rule
Before saving, finish this sentence:
“I am keeping this row because it shows ______ clearly.”
What to do next
Apply the same score to three comparable rows
Then review weight and safety before opening more links.
