Good CSSBuy hauls are built category by category. Each part of an outfit has its own sizing logic, its own likely source and its own QC checks. This guide walks through the main CSSBuy Spreadsheet categories, then shows three balanced haul plans that combine Taobao, 1688, Weidian and Pinduoduo items. For the sourcing basics, see the handbook on the CSSBuy Spreadsheet homepage.
Quick Reference

| Accessories | Listed dimensions | 1688, Pinduoduo, Weidian | Filler |
CSSBuy Spreadsheet Sneakers
In Shoes, choose listings with side profiles and sole photos. Measure foot length in millimeters; an insole a few millimeters longer than your foot is usually comfortable. Chunky styles can feel narrow inside, and boots need room for thicker socks. QC: size tag, side profile, heel symmetry, both shoes matching.
CSSBuy Spreadsheet Hoodies
In Hoodies/Sweaters, compare chest width and length with a hoodie you own. Boxy cuts look oversized even in your usual size. Heavier fleece holds shape; lighter terry breathes. QC: hood shape, ribbing, print or embroidery edges.
CSSBuy Spreadsheet T-Shirts
In T-Shirts, 1688 is strong for plain blanks; Weidian and Taobao stores offer graphics. Check width and length together and look for a thick ribbed collar. QC: collar, print alignment, color.
CSSBuy Spreadsheet Jackets
In Jackets, shoulder width decides the fit. Add a few centimeters to the chest if you plan to layer. Look for photos of zippers and linings. QC: zipper alignment, snaps, lining, even filling.
CSSBuy Spreadsheet Pants
In Pants/Shorts, measure the waist flat and double it, then check inseam and leg opening. Elastic waists are forgiving; denim needs precision. QC: waist size, pocket stitching, color on both legs.
CSSBuy Spreadsheet Jerseys
Jerseys appear among tops and in Other Stuff. Athletic cuts are slimmer, so many buyers size up one. Write custom names and numbers clearly. QC: badge position, number alignment, heat-press edges.
CSSBuy Spreadsheet Accessories
In Accessories and Headwear, dimensions matter more than sizes: bag width, height and depth; belt length; chain length and clasp. 1688 and Pinduoduo are strong on simple items; Weidian on statement pieces. QC: hardware, clasps, zippers, embroidery.

CSSBuy Spreadsheet Buy It NowThree Balanced Haul Plans
The everyday mix: sneakers from a Taobao store (anchor), a Weidian hoodie, two 1688 tees and a pack of socks. One heavy piece, one core piece and light fillers.
The outerwear mix: a Taobao jacket (anchor), straight jeans, a cap from 1688 and a simple pair of earrings from Pinduoduo. Ask about compression for the jacket.
The light mix: three 1688 tees, a Weidian graphic tee, a cap and a belt. No anchor at all, so the parcel stays small and inexpensive.
Choosing Colors That Work Together
Before filling a haul, pick two base colors and one accent, for example black and cream with olive. Ignore rows outside that palette, however tempting. This simple rule means every piece in the parcel combines with the others, so five items create many outfits instead of five unrelated looks. It also makes decisions faster, because half the rows in each category are filtered out before you even read the notes.
Neutral base colors are also more forgiving when the shade in person differs slightly from the listing photo, which is common across all platforms.
Planning Around Different Sellers
Items from different platforms reach the warehouse at different speeds. Order the slowest item first, keep the parcel open until everything has passed QC and watch the storage period. Domestic delivery is often charged per seller, so clustering small items around a few sellers keeps costs down.
Budget Planning for a Mixed Haul
A simple worksheet keeps mixed hauls predictable. List each item with its source, price, domestic delivery and approximate weight. Group small items around as few sellers as possible, since domestic delivery is often charged per seller. Add a rough shipping estimate for the total weight. Seeing the full cost before you order makes it easy to decide whether to add one more filler or move a heavy item to the next parcel.
Doing this once or twice is usually enough to build an instinct for it, after which most buyers can estimate a parcel in their head.
Packing and Shipping
Keep one anchor per parcel. Remove shoeboxes, ask about compression for bulky clothing and preview the packed weight. Compare shipping lines by price, delivery time, restrictions and recent feedback. Split the parcel if it becomes very heavy, very valuable or includes restricted items.
Learning From Every Haul
After delivery, note each item’s source, how long it took to arrive, whether it passed QC first time and how it fits. Within a few orders you will know which platforms suit you for each category.
