Sixteen product shelves that feed a GuaBase order
Browse by category, judge the listing, then carry the link into GuaBase. Each card says what that kind of item tends to need later in the relay.
All sixteen categories, with a warehouse note on each
Fifteen cards open a category page; the Womenswear card opens a keyword search, because the catalogue sorts by product type rather than by who wears it.
SneakersShoe boxes add volume. Decide at packing whether the box travels.Category
Jackets & CoatsPuffers weigh little and fill a carton, so volume sets the freight.Category

Carrying a find from a category card into GuaBase
A card on this page is the start of the relay, not part of it. Nothing is reserved and nobody in China knows you exist until you place an order with GuaBase. The path from card to order runs like this:
- Open a category and pick a listing. Look at the shop link or the address bar: a Taobao or Tmall address can go straight into GuaBase's search bar.
- Copy the product link, not a screenshot. GuaBase's search pulls the options and prices from the link itself.
- Paste it into GuaBase, or upload the main photo if you only have an image. Keyword search works too, but it returns similar items, not that exact listing.
- For a listing from Weidian or another shop GuaBase does not list as supported, use the purchase request form. Share the link, the option and the quantity; the team reviews it and confirms a plan and quote before you pay.
GuaBase also says its search does not yet cover every Taobao and Tmall product. If a link you paste returns nothing, that is the same purchase request route, not a dead end.
Four things that decide whether a card is worth copying
Judging a listing before you copy it saves an exchange later, when the item is already in Anji and the seller has to agree to take it back. Four things decide most cases:
- The option name. Prices on a card are often the cheapest option. The colour in the main photo may be a different, dearer option.
- Measurements in centimetres. Compare chest width or inseam with a garment you own, not the S, M or L label.
- Bundles. One listing can sell the item alone, with a box, or as a set. Read what is in the box.
- Seller notes. Save a screenshot of any sizing chart or custom instruction; GuaBase's guide suggests the same.
Category notes for the later handoffs
What you buy changes how the later stages go. Light, bulky things are billed on size; batteries and liquids narrow the routes; boxes add volume you might not want to pay to fly. The table pairs each category with the decision it usually forces.
| Category | Settle before the first payment | Expect at packing or freight |
|---|---|---|
| Sneakers | EU or CN size from the seller's chart | Keep or drop the shoe box; it can decide the billed weight |
| Jackets and coats | Shoulder and length figures | Down and padding make a big carton for little weight |
| Hoodies | Chest width laid flat | Several hoodies fold well into one parcel |
| T-shirts | Group cheap tees into one order | Light and flat, rarely the costly part |
| Jeans | Waist and inseam in centimetres | Denim is heavy for its size, so scale weight usually wins |
| Sweatpants | Option name against the colour you want | Fold flat with other soft items |
| Womenswear search | Which shop the result belongs to | Same rules as the garment type you picked |
| Jerseys | Name and number printing in the note | Check the print in any warehouse photos |
| Bags | Dimensions and strap options | Rigid bags keep their volume in the carton |
| Hats | Head size or adjustable strap | Structured caps may need reinforcement |
| Belts | Strap length and buckle finish | Small, heavy for size, easy to add to a parcel |
| Eyewear | Frame width, lens type | Ask for a hard case to travel with the frames |
| Perfume | Ask support about liquids before paying | Route limits can stop a parcel at dispatch |
| Jewellery | Chain length, clasp type | Rides inside a larger parcel at little cost |
| Watches | Battery type, strap size | Batteries can limit routes |
| Electronics | Plug, voltage, network bands, language | Battery rules and the carrier's own limits apply |
GuaBase's guide lists batteries, liquids, powders, food, cosmetics, branded goods and oversized products as things that may face route limits. It also states that it cannot handle prohibited, infringing, unsafe or platform-restricted products. Ask before paying if your item sits anywhere near that list.
Why this GuaBase Spreadsheet helps you compare an order before buying
A catalog reduces the search work; an agent resolves the purchase and handling work. The Relay's added value is the connection between them. Its category notes turn browsing into a specification and connect that specification to the stage where it can still be checked or changed. This page does not reserve goods or promise that every marketplace listing is supported by GuaBase's integrated search.
Compare complete baskets, not isolated sticker prices
Take three tees you already intend to buy. If each were CNY 39, the goods subtotal would be CNY 117. Under GuaBase's October 26 published fee rule, one qualifying order would carry the CNY 15 minimum, rather than CNY 5.85 from a simple 5% calculation. If they are processed as three separate orders, three minimums could apply. Confirm the order grouping with GuaBase, and add domestic delivery, payment charges and international freight before comparing the result with direct retail delivery.
The calculator makes the fee rule visible. It does not know whether a seller has stock, whether a basket can be grouped, or what the packed dimensions will be. Keeping those blanks explicit lets you compare two realistic plans without treating unknown costs as zero.
Use each category note twice
Before buying a hoodie, compare its flat measurements with one you own and save the exact size. At the warehouse stage, use that record to check the received option; request clarification if the available images do not show it. Before buying a rigid bag, decide which dimensions matter and whether it needs protective packing. At consolidation, check what that protection does to the box. A note is useful when it changes an action, not merely when it describes a product.
The catalog links and prices carry check dates, and corrections belong in the update log. We have not purchased every item or verified durability. Keep the original listing URL and your selected variation so you can recheck it, request assisted purchasing or compare another eligible service.
Five tests we expect any spreadsheet site to pass
Plenty of sites call themselves a spreadsheet. This is how to spot a spreadsheet worth your clicks, and we expect to be held to the same test:
- Links that still open. Click three cards at random. If any lands on an error page, the list is not being looked after.
- Dates on facts. Fees and delivery times change. A page that quotes them without saying when they were read is guessing.
- A named relationship. The site should say whether it is official, paid by an agent, or independent. This one is independent, and its sign-up link carries only tracking tags, no referral code.
- Agent rules that match the agent's own pages. Compare one figure, such as the service fee, with the agent's help center.
- No promises about quality it cannot keep. No site and no warehouse check can vouch for what is inside a product. Be wary of anyone who says otherwise.
