How to Use the KakoBuy Spreadsheet: Complete Beginner Guide 2025
New to w2c? This step-by-step guide walks you through finding products on the KakoBuy spreadsheet, checking QC photos, and placing your first order through the KakoBuy agent.
What Is the KakoBuy Spreadsheet?
The KakoBuy Spreadsheet is a community-curated database of products available through the KakoBuy shopping agent platform. Unlike random product listings, every item in the spreadsheet has been sourced, reviewed, and verified by real buyers in the w2c (want to cop) community. Think of it as a trusted shortlist — instead of sifting through thousands of listings on Weidian or Taobao, you get a pre-filtered selection of the best finds, complete with batch information, QC photo links, and pricing guidance.
The spreadsheet covers 11 major categories: Shoes, Hoodies/Sweaters, T-Shirts, Jackets, Pants/Shorts, Headwear, Sets, Underwear, Jerseys, Accessories, and Others. Each category is updated regularly as new batches drop and community members share their hauls.
Step-by-Step: How to Browse and Order
Follow these steps to go from browsing to a confirmed order:
- 1Browse the spreadsheet categories on this site — use the top navigation or the homepage category grid to find what you're looking for.
- 2Click any product card to open the Product Detail modal. Here you'll see the full product title, price in USD, QC photos, SKU options (colors, sizes), and available agents.
- 3Review the QC photos carefully. These are real photos taken by the seller or previous buyers showing the actual product quality.
- 4Select your SKU options — choose your color variant and size if applicable. The SKU selector shows image swatches for color options.
- 5Click "Buy on KakoBuy" in the modal. This takes you directly to the KakoBuy agent platform with the product pre-loaded.
- 6On KakoBuy, add the item to your cart, complete the purchase, and wait for the agent to source and ship your item.
- 7Once KakoBuy receives your item, they'll send you QC photos before shipping. You can approve or request a return at this stage.
Understanding Pricing: CNY vs USD
All products in the KakoBuy Spreadsheet are sourced from Chinese platforms like Weidian, so the base price is in Chinese Yuan (CNY). On this site, we display prices converted to USD at approximately 6.2 CNY per dollar for easy reference. Keep in mind this is an estimate — the actual USD charge on KakoBuy will depend on the current exchange rate at the time of purchase.
Beyond the product price, you'll also pay a service fee to KakoBuy (typically 5-10% depending on your membership tier) and international shipping. Shipping costs vary significantly based on the shipping line you choose — budget lines like YunExpress can be as low as $15-25 for a pair of shoes, while premium lines like DHL can run $40-60 but arrive in 5-7 days.
Reading QC Photos Like a Pro
QC photos are your most important tool for evaluating product quality before it ships. Here's what to look for:
- Check the stitching on seams, logos, and labels — uneven or loose stitching is a red flag.
- Examine the sole unit on shoes — look for clean glue lines, correct colorways, and proper shape.
- Verify the tag placement and font — compare against retail reference photos if possible.
- Look at the overall shape and proportions — does it match the retail silhouette?
- Check for any visible defects, scuffs, or discoloration in the photos.
- If QC photos look off, you can request a reshoot or reject the item for a refund.

KakoBuy offers multiple shipping lines. Here's a quick comparison of the most popular options:
