Questions we get asked, answered without hedging
Most FAQ pages exist to fill space and catch a long-tail keyword. This one exists because the same twelve questions come up in every conversation about agent spreadsheets, and the honest answers are shorter than the marketing ones.
Group 1
The spreadsheet
What exactly is an oopbuy spreadsheet?
A filterable table of items a buying agent can purchase on your behalf. Each row has a photo, a title, a category, a yuan price and a dollar conversion. It is not a shop — there is no cart and no stock count. We index 1,711 rows, all dated 2026-11-08.
Is this the official one?
No. There is no official spreadsheet. They are maintained by communities, resellers and independent sites like this one. We are not affiliated with oopbuy.com or with the catalogue we link to.
Why not 50,000 rows like some sites claim?
Because a row count is only meaningful if you verified it. Ours is 1,711 because that is how many rows resolved on 2026-11-08. A larger number is easy to type.
How often does the table change?
Every rebuild. The snapshot date in the page header is generated at build time, so you can always tell how old the row you are reading is.
Group 2
Prices and shipping
Are the dollar prices what I will pay?
No. They are the seller’s yuan price converted at ¥7.2/$1 on the snapshot date. Your total adds an agent fee, domestic delivery, international freight and possibly duty.
How much is shipping per kilogram?
There is no single rate. Lines charge a first-weight fee plus increments, and the chargeable weight is the larger of actual and volumetric. The shipping estimator shows the shape of that curve with sample rates.
Why is shipping more than the items?
Because volume, not weight, decides most freight. A jacket that weighs 900 g but fills 12 litres is billed as about 2 kg. Removing shoeboxes and consolidating parcels are the two levers that actually work.
Group 3
Trust and safety
Is oopbuy legit?
That is a longer answer than a yes or no, and we wrote a whole page on it. Short version: the platform exists and has published policies; whether a specific seller ships what the photos show is a separate question that QC photos partly answer.
Do you authenticate products?
No, and neither does any spreadsheet. Brand labels here are inferred from listing titles. Treat them as a search aid, not a certificate.
What does the ref parameter in your links do?
It tells the partner which page sent you. It does not change your price, create an account, or follow you around the web. Strip it and everything still works.
Group 4
Using the site
Do I need an account here?
No. There is no login on this site. The partner catalogue also lets you browse without signing in; you need an account only to order.
Why do some rows link to a search instead of a product?
Because a product page that no longer resolves is worse than a search that always does. When a row’s product URL fails, we fall back to the catalogue search for that title.
Can I use this on a phone?
Yes. The table scrolls horizontally on narrow screens and the filters stay pinned above it. The calculators are tap-friendly.
