Why QC matters more than spreadsheet hype
Spreadsheet finds show community discovery. QC photos show what actually arrived at warehouse. Compare logo placement, color, stitching, size tag, insole, tongue, and packaging against the seller listing.
Shoes vs clothing QC focus
For shoes, check toe shape, sole alignment, glue marks, and box label. For hoodies and jackets, check zipper, drawstrings, wash tag, and measurement against size chart. Reject or exchange before international shipping when flaws exceed your tolerance.
When to ask for more photos
If lighting is poor or angles hide details, request supplemental QC before approving. Once a parcel ships internationally, options narrow — warehouse stage is your main control point.
