More about HooBuy

How to order through HooBuy

Copy a product link from your HooBuy spreadsheet or from Taobao, Tmall or 1688 and paste it into HooBuy, which imports the listing information automatically for most items. HooBuy purchases it, receives it at its third-party collaborative warehouse, and prepares it for international shipping. Official mp4 tutorials cover each step for first-time users.

Fees and quality checks

There is no handling fee — your total is the item price plus international shipping and any duties, with a customs declaration charge of around ¥8 per order. Every parcel receives a free basic quality inspection covering color, size and large-area damage, while electronics are inspected externally only.

Warehousing and consolidation

HooBuy uses a third-party collaborative warehouse model and stores your items free for 90 days. Items not submitted for shipping after 90 days are destroyed, so it is best to consolidate multiple orders into one parcel and ship within the free window.

Payment and returns

Pay by credit or debit card, WeChat, Alipay or account balance; a cross-border processing percentage applies. You can return within 5 days, with the first return or exchange each calendar month free of service charge and tiered fees afterward. The buyer covers return shipping.
