GTBuy Spreadsheet Guide: QC, Custom Photos and Shipping Lines
GTBuy is a China shopping agent that buys from Taobao-, Weidian- and 1688-style marketplaces, receives goods into its own warehouse, publishes QC photos, and only then asks you to choose an international shipping line. Our testing team ordered through the platform and worked the whole path from the original listing to parcel dispatch. GTBuy's product page lists 90 days of free storage after warehouse receipt, and a custom-photo request path exists when standard QC images do not answer one specific visual question.
Short answer
GTBuy suits buyers who prefer to confirm an order in stages: verify the original marketplace link, wait for warehouse QC, request a custom photo if a key detail stays unclear, then consolidate and pick an international shipping line based on the finished parcel rather than an early estimate.

About Gtbuy
GTBuy is a cross-border shopping-agent platform. Its developer listing identifies Gtbuy Limited, company number 76481571, and [email protected] as its support contact. The platform is built around an order path that separates marketplace purchasing, seller dispatch, warehouse receipt, QC review and international delivery. Product and China domestic-delivery decisions come first. Once an item is stocked, buyers can inspect the available QC evidence, request an additional photo where appropriate, consolidate retained items, and only then select an international route for the packed parcel. GTBuy currently lists 90 days of free storage after warehouse receipt. A 2026 community haul post described one 11 kg parcel reaching the Netherlands in 13 days in satisfactory condition, with EUR132 quoted for shipping on an electronics line; that is a single experience on one route, not a delivery, customs or price guarantee. Public reputation is mixed — positive reviews emphasise support response times, warehouse speed and shipping prices, while critical ones mention stained goods, slow purchasing and warehouse accuracy. Our testing team used the platform end to end: submitting links, reading QC images, consolidating and dispatching.
What works well
Order status is tracked in warehouse stages before any international shipping line is selected
QC review at warehouse receipt, with an optional custom-photo path for one specific visual question
90 days of free storage after receipt, which gives room to consolidate several sellers' goods into one parcel
The final shipping decision is made on the packed parcel, so freight is not paid on an item that still needs attention
Published service fee, storage window and custom-photo charge make the cost structure visible up front
What to check
QC photos confirm visible order details only; they do not establish authenticity, material quality or long-term durability
Seller pre-orders, stock shortages and dispatch delays can push back the estimated warehouse arrival date, which is not a guarantee
International freight is charged on actual weight and volume, so bulky light items can cost more than their weight suggests
Route availability, restrictions and rates change; the quote for your parcel is the authoritative number, not older guides
Community reviews are mixed and individual reports cover one parcel, one route and one destination
Import duties and customs handling sit on top of the agent fee in many destinations and must be budgeted separately
What GTBuy does
GTBuy can assist with purchases from Chinese marketplaces, receive the goods at its warehouse, provide QC information, consolidate parcels and arrange international dispatch. In practice the agent is the middle link between a marketplace listing and a parcel forwarded abroad: you supply the link and the variant, GTBuy buys domestically and moves the item into its warehouse. Always verify the original source link, seller, selected option and price before placing an order, because the agent buys what you submit.
Why warehouse receipt comes before shipping
Your international route is best chosen after the goods are received and the parcel can be prepared. That ordering gives you a chance to compare warehouse QC against the original order, retain only approved items, and assess shipping using the final packed parcel rather than an early guess. It also keeps you from paying international freight on an item that still needs a return, exchange or clarification with the seller.
What you actually pay
Product price + China domestic delivery + service fee 6.00 + international shipping. The published service fee, the storage window and the custom-photo charge are listed by the platform, so check the current figures in your own cart before paying. International shipping depends on the final parcel, destination, selected route, actual weight and volume. Import duties and customs handling are separate again and depend on your country's rules.
Choosing a shipping line after QC
Shipping lines differ in speed, price, weight and size limits, permitted goods and insurance terms. Compare candidates on the finished parcel rather than on the items still sitting with sellers, then read the route restrictions for your destination before confirming. In one 2026 community report an 11 kg parcel to the Netherlands arrived in 13 days with EUR132 quoted on an electronics line — useful context for what a route can look like, but one parcel is not a rate card.
When to use a custom photo
Use a custom-photo request only when a standard QC image does not answer a material question about a visible detail, such as a label, accessory count, local construction detail or size marking. Give a specific request and review the current charge before submitting it. A custom photo is a better look at the same visible object — it does not authenticate a product or grade its materials.
Spreadsheet checklist before you pay
Use the Spreadsheet to reach the original listing, then check the seller, the selected colour or version, size, price and purchase restrictions. Keep a record of the chosen option. QC is for comparing the visible received goods with that record; it is not an authenticity guarantee. If a listing looks inconsistent with the spreadsheet entry, resolve the discrepancy before ordering rather than after the parcel reaches the warehouse.
How to use Gtbuy
Step 1 — Verify the original link
Open the original marketplace page from a trustworthy Spreadsheet entry. Check the seller, the selected options, price, size information and any purchase restrictions. Keep screenshots or notes of the exact option you choose, because that is the record you will check the warehouse photos against.
Step 2 — Submit the purchase request
Submit the selected item, variants, quantity and any essential notes. This stage covers the product and China domestic delivery only. Pre-orders, stock shortages or seller dispatch delays can affect when the item reaches the warehouse, so an estimated arrival date is not a promise.
Step 3 — Review QC at warehouse receipt
When an item is stocked, compare the available QC images with your original selection: visible style, quantity, colour, size, model and obvious damage. Request a custom photo only when you can describe the missing visual detail precisely. QC does not verify authenticity.
Step 4 — Consolidate and dispatch internationally
Keep the items you approve, create a parcel and compare routes for your destination. International shipping is chosen after parcel preparation, so review route restrictions, insurance terms and the final cost shown for your packed parcel before dispatch.
Shopping-agent guide
Use a GTBuy Spreadsheet to reach the original product page, not as a substitute for checking it. Confirm the seller, exact colour or version, size, price and purchase conditions before creating an order. Save a note or screenshot of the option you selected, because that record is what you will compare warehouse QC against later. GTBuy's warehouse sequence lets you make the final international-shipping decision after the goods have been received and reviewed. Treat the estimated warehouse date as an estimate only — pre-orders, stock shortages and seller dispatch delays can move it. When the item is stocked, read the QC images carefully, request a custom photo only if you can state the missing visual detail precisely, then consolidate and compare routes for your destination using the final parcel weight and volume.
Frequently asked
Where should I get a GTBuy Spreadsheet?
Use a trustworthy Spreadsheet or curated guide as a starting point, then open every original product link. Confirm the seller, selected options, price and restrictions on the marketplace page before ordering.
What can GTBuy QC photos actually verify?
QC photos help check visible order details such as style, quantity, colour, size, model and obvious damage. They do not establish authenticity, material quality, seller reliability or long-term durability.
How do storage and after-sales work?
GTBuy lists 90 days of free storage after warehouse receipt. If a warehouse issue appears, contact support promptly with the order details and QC context. Return eligibility depends on seller rules, item condition and timing, so decide before the storage window expires.
