How to order on CSSBuy with a product link
Move from a verified marketplace link to a clear CSSBuy purchase request without confusing the product payment with later international shipping.
Begin with the product page, not the spreadsheet page
CSSBuy’s public order procedure begins with a detailed product-page address. A spreadsheet is useful for discovery, but its category page or product card is not the seller record CSSBuy needs to purchase.
Open the current marketplace listing first. If it is unavailable, has been replaced or no longer contains the intended option, return to the shortlist and choose another source rather than submitting an uncertain link.
Check the information CSSBuy imports
After the URL is submitted, compare the imported title, seller, main image, base price and available options with the source page. Automated product capture can be incomplete when a marketplace changes its page or requires information that is not exposed in a standard selector.
Do not continue only because the image looks correct. A different bundle, quantity or price tier can use the same image while representing a different purchase.
Select the exact size, color and bundle
CSSBuy’s official “Create an order” article tells buyers to state color and size requirements. The stable principle is broader: every choice that changes the item must be explicit, including quantity, version, bundle or any seller-defined option.
For footwear and clothing, compare the listing’s measurement chart with the required measurements. A familiar size label is not a reliable substitute when sellers use different sizing systems.
Use notes for information the selector cannot express
A useful order note resolves one specific ambiguity, such as the exact model shown in a seller image or a measurable requirement. Repeat critical information in a short form and avoid long generic requests that can hide the actual decision.
A note does not override the live listing or force a seller to provide an unavailable option. If the purchase depends on seller confirmation, monitor the order for a question or problematic status before assuming it has been accepted.
Separate item price from China domestic shipping
The seller price and China domestic shipping belong to the purchase stage. Domestic shipping is the seller’s charge for sending the item to the CSSBuy warehouse, not postage to your home. Some listings include it while others require an additional amount or later reconfirmation.
Record both figures so a small domestic adjustment does not look like an unexplained international shipping charge. The international parcel is created only after eligible products reach the warehouse.
Review the first payment before submitting
Confirm the selected option, quantity, product amount, China domestic shipping and any purchasing charge displayed for the order. If the imported amount differs from the live listing, check whether the source page was showing a different variant or minimum price.
CSSBuy’s public workflow describes payment before its purchasing staff place the marketplace order. Treat the live checkout record as authoritative because interface labels and payment methods can change.
Monitor the order until warehouse arrival
Submitting payment does not mean the item has reached the warehouse. CSSBuy may still need to process the request, purchase from the seller, wait for seller dispatch and receive the domestic shipment.
Watch for requests to confirm an option, price or unavailable item. When the order reaches an arrived or warehouse-ready state, move to warehouse review rather than returning to the spreadsheet for status information.

FAQ: How to order on CSSBuy with a product link
Can I paste a Taobao, Weidian or 1688 product link into CSSBuy?
Use the current product URL from a marketplace CSSBuy supports, then verify the information imported into the live order form.
Why is the CSSBuy price different from the seller page?
The source page may show its lowest option price, while the selected size, bundle or quantity costs more. Domestic delivery or an incomplete import can also require review.
What belongs in an order note?
Only information the option selector does not express clearly, such as a specific version or measurable requirement. Keep it short and unambiguous.
Does the first payment include international shipping?
Normally the purchase stage and international parcel stage are separate. Review the current checkout labels, then expect international shipping to be chosen after warehouse arrival.
What if an option is missing?
Do not assume the buyer will infer it. Choose a valid listed option, ask for confirmation through the available order channel or use another live product source.
What should I save after ordering?
Keep the source URL, exact option, submitted note and CSSBuy order number until the item is received and reviewed at the warehouse.
