Where to find KakoBuy links: spreadsheet, QC photos and link converter
The easiest places to find KakoBuy product links are a spreadsheet (a list of finds from Weidian, Taobao, 1688 and Tmall), a QC photo database, and a link converter that turns a shop link into a KakoBuy link. Caden (cadenreps.pl) combines all three and is free.
What a KakoBuy link is
KakoBuy is a shopping agent. It buys for you on Chinese marketplaces such as Weidian, Taobao and 1688 and ships the parcel to you. A KakoBuy link is the same product opened through the agent so you can order it.
3 ways to find links
- Spreadsheet. A searchable list of finds: name, price in CNY, batch, category and shop. Open the spreadsheet
- QC photos.Photos taken at the agent warehouse, not the seller's photos. They let you judge the item before it ships. Check QC
- Link converter. Paste a Weidian or Taobao link and get a link to the same item on KakoBuy and other agents. Use the converter
What to look for in a links site
- the list is kept up to date, not copied once and abandoned,
- there are warehouse QC photos, not only shop photos,
- the CNY price, batch and originating shop are shown,
- links work on several agents, not just one.
Is KakoBuy more expensive than other agents?
The item price is the same through every agent, because they all buy from the same Chinese marketplace. What differs is the service fee, the warehouse and the shipping lines available to your country. Compare those, not the item price.
What is in Caden
