Your stock

Your stock, in our warehouse. At no extra charge.

Everything you source arrives at our warehouse in China, where we check it against your request and weigh it before it becomes your stock. It stays there, with no storage fee and no time limit, while your plan is active.

On arrival

Nothing becomes stock unchecked

When a supplier's delivery reaches us, this happens before a single unit appears in your inventory.

  1. Counted against your request

    The delivery is checked against what you asked for, before anything else happens.

  2. Condition checked

    Every delivery is looked over for damage before it can become stock you sell.

  3. Weighed for shipping

    The real weight is recorded, because it decides what each parcel to your customer costs.

  4. Added to your stock

    The goods appear in your Products List, ready for your orders and your stores.

If an item is wrong or defective, we send you photos and you choose a replacement or a refund to your wallet. Supplier errors cost you nothing. The check covers condition and match to the listing, not whether a product is genuine.

Your inventory

Always know what you can sell

Every product you hold with us, with the numbers that matter at a glance.

  1. Stock, reserved, available

    Stock is what we hold. Reserved is what paid orders have already claimed. Available is what you can still sell.

  2. Low stock, flagged

    A product with fewer than ten units available is marked Low stock, so a restock is never a surprise.

  3. One page per product

    Photos, variations and the weight used to price shipping, all kept on the product, with the photo editor one click away.

  4. Retire what you no longer sell

    Ask us to delete a product you are done with, and our team reviews the request.

Restocking

More of the same, in one click

Running low? Press Request More on the product.

  • Filled in for you

    The product's link and name are already there. Say how many more units, and what changed.

  • Priced and paid like any request

    A restock uses no sourcing credit. We price it, and it is paid from your wallet like any other request.

  • Joins the same product

    When the new units arrive and pass the same checks, they are added to the product you already have.

Storage

Storage without the small print

What keeping your stock with us costs, and how it works across your stores.

  • No storage fee

    Your goods stay in our warehouse at no extra charge while your plan is active.

  • No warehouse subscription

    No minimum fee, and nothing to pay for space you do not use.

  • No time limit

    While your plan is active, stock waits with us until an order ships it. If your plan ends, we hold it for three months, with reminders, before it is treated as abandoned.

  • One pool for every store

    Your stock is shared between your stores, and a unit is only ever offered by one of them at a time.

When an order comes in

Packed with care, shipped from here

The moment an order is paid, its units are reserved and our team takes over.

  1. Reserved the moment it is paid

    The units are set aside for that order, so no other order can take them.

  2. Repackaged for the journey

    Goods are repacked where needed, so they reach your customer in one piece.

  3. Several items, one parcel

    An order with several products is combined into a single parcel.

  4. Shipped with tracking

    The tracking number goes back to the order, and to your store if it is connected.

Where is your warehouse?

In China. Your goods are received, checked, weighed, stored and shipped from there.

Is there a storage fee?

No. Storage is free, with no time limit, while your plan is active, and there is no warehouse subscription. If your plan ends, we hold your stock for three months and remind you to renew or arrange its removal; after that, it is treated as abandoned.

What do Stock, Reserved and Available mean?

Stock is everything we hold for you. Reserved is what paid orders have already claimed. Available is stock minus reserved: what you can still sell. Below ten available, a product is marked Low stock.

How do I restock a product?

Press Request More on the product in your Products List. A restock does not use a sourcing credit, because the product is already in your inventory. It is priced and paid from your wallet like any request, and its units join the same product when they arrive.

What if a delivery does not match my request?

We check every delivery on arrival against the 1688 or Taobao listing, before it becomes your stock. If an item is wrong or defective, we notify you with photos and you choose a replacement or a refund to your wallet. You pay nothing for supplier errors. Our check covers condition and match to the listing; it does not verify whether a product is genuine.

Can I remove a product from my inventory?

Yes. Ask us to delete it from your Products List, and our team reviews the request.
