How to Buy Reps: Step by Step
Weidian sellers do not ship abroad themselves, so you buy reps through a shopping agent: a company in China that orders the rep for you, photographs it in their warehouse and ships everything you bought in one parcel. The whole process takes about two to four weeks.
1. Make an agent account.
Kakobuy is the default on this rep spreadsheet; USFans, Sinabuy, Litbuy, Oopbuy and Acbuy work too. Switch at the top of any page and every buy link follows.
New accounts usually get shipping coupons, so sign up through an offer before your first rep order rather than after it.
2. Pick a rep and press Buy.
The button opens the same Weidian listing inside your agent, where you choose the size and colour and add the rep to the cart.
Read the listing's size chart there. Most rep sellers use Asian sizing, which runs about one size smaller than EU or US labels.
3. Pay for the reps.
You pay the item price plus domestic shipping to the agent's warehouse in China, usually a few yuan.
International shipping is paid later, once all your reps have arrived and been weighed.
4. Check the QC photos.
When a rep reaches the warehouse, the agent posts quality-check photos. Compare them against retail pictures before you accept it.
If something is wrong (the size, the colour, a flaw), ask for a return or exchange now. Once the parcel leaves China that option is gone.
5. Ship your haul.
Submit the reps you want sent together, choose a shipping line and pay by weight.
Lines differ in price, speed and how they handle customs. Your agent's calculator shows the options for your country.
6. Track it home.
You get a tracking number as soon as the parcel is handed to the shipping line. Delivery takes one to three weeks depending on the line.
