1. Lock the category
Pick shoes, bags, jackets, or another single lane. Cross-category sampling creates false winners.
Same find, cleaner test · US & EU shoppers
Same category for rows; agent choice is storage, QC, fees—not “best sheet.”
Both can open the same Weidian/Taobao/1688 finds. Compare warehouse storage window, QC package, item fee line, and how long you build a haul—then verify the live account policy.
Pull three comparable rows per path or tab. Judge QC, size/cm, USD peers, and shipping weight with yes / no / unknown.
| Topic | LoveGoBuy (typical) | Sugargoo (typical) | Verify live |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free warehouse storage | ~60 days (often reported) | ~100 days (often reported) | Storage policy in-account |
| QC package | Photos; video claims vary | Photos; extras vary | Your order QC set |
| Item service fee | Often a % fee tier | Often 0% item-fee claims | Checkout fee line |
| Haul habit fit | Faster single-session haul | Slower multi-week haul | Your timeline to ship |
QC angles present? Size chart when fit matters? USD beside peers? Packed kg noted or waived on heavy lanes?
Mixing product types, counting QC photos without identity checks, ignoring kg on shoes/jackets/bags, or picking an agent by hype before fee and storage fit your haul.
Not universally. LoveGoBuy often fits faster hauls; Sugargoo often fits longer warehouse storage. Verify fees, QC, and storage in each account.
Usually yes if you have the original Weidian/Taobao/1688 link. Agent wrappers differ; the source listing is what matters.
Three comparable items per path, same category. Write yes/no/unknown on the four evidence questions.
No. Count without identity and scale checks is incomplete. Score what the photos show.
Pick shoes, bags, jackets, or another single lane. Cross-category sampling creates false winners.
From each path or tab, choose three comparable items and place them side by side with USD prices visible.
Prefer clearer photos, usable measurements, honest weight context, and understandable source handoffs over louder marketing claims.
Evidence bar
Write yes / no / unknown for each side. Unknown counts as incomplete—not as a pass.
Do identity, construction, and scale angles exist for this category?
Are cm measurements or a usable size chart present when fit matters?
Does the price sit beside similar finds, not alone as a “deal”?
Is packed weight noted—or consciously waived—for heavy lanes?
Pitfalls
Use it to decide which rows deserve the checklist—not to crown a universal “best directory.” Pair winners with the 7-point checklist, QC Photos guide, and search-phrase ideas when a detail is missing.
