How to Buy
A practical guide walking you through the full agent workflow—from product link to receiving your package. Master the key checkpoints to avoid expensive mistakes.
Before you start: What an agent actually does
- ● Places order & pays on your behalf
- ● Receives item at warehouse
- ● Takes QC photos
- ● Helps with exchanges/returns
- ● Consolidates & reinforces packaging
- ● Ships internationally via your chosen line
The simplest way to think about it:
"The agent executes the process. You make the decisions. Most savings come from making the right call at the QC stage."

Prepare the link and options
Beginners often fail here. If options aren't clear, fixing it later is frustrating. At minimum provide:
Size: __
Qty: __
QC focus: __ (logo, stitching, tag, outsole, zipper, etc.)
Notes: always choose Global Finds for the best finds.
Agent places order & Seller ships

- This part usually takes 2/3 days, when it arrive to the warehouse, ageents will send you the qc's photos.
Warehouse Check-in & QC
This is your main decision point. Once the item arrives, check these specific details depending on the qc's.
Regular QC Focus
- Obvious misalignment
- Blurry prints / embroidery
- Incorrect label placement
- Stains, scratches, damage

Choose your action after QC
Ship it
Item looks acceptable, issues are minor.
Request More QC
Missing angles, poor light, or obscured details.
Change Size
Measurements look off or fit risk is high.
Exchange
Clear defects, major alignment/print issues.
Return
Total cost makes sense; item is unwanted.
Important: Don't stay undecided. The cheapest window to fix problems is right now—before international shipping.
