Kakobuy Marketplace Link Basics for Taobao, Weidian and 1688

Marketplace links are the source of truth for product options, seller notes and current stock. Kakobuy helps turn those links into orders, but buyers still need to verify the final item page.

Why it matters

A copied link can be incomplete, expired or pointed at a different SKU than expected. The link check protects size, color, batch and seller choice.

Practical workflow

  1. 1Identify whether the link is from Taobao, Tmall, Weidian or 1688.
  2. 2Open the listing and check visible SKU options.
  3. 3Compare product photos with spreadsheet notes.
  4. 4Paste the link into the Kakobuy workflow.
  5. 5Review the Kakobuy item detail page before payment.

Buyer checklist

  • Link opens to the expected product.
  • Seller page still shows the right item.
  • SKU options match your order notes.
  • Domestic shipping is not ignored.
  • Screenshots are saved for expensive items.

Mistakes to avoid

  • Using shortened links with missing parameters.
  • Ordering from a listing that changed stock.
  • Assuming all platforms show sizing the same way.

Decision rule

A link is ready only when the marketplace page and Kakobuy item page agree on the item you intend to buy.
