The journey

How TinaBuy works

Two ways to shop, one careful process. Tina buys in China on your behalf, checks everything with her own eyes, and only ships once you say yes.

Way one β€” send a link

Step 1

Send Tina a link

Paste any product link from Taobao, Weidian, 1688, Poizon and more β€” add colour, size and quantity.

Step 2

Get your quote

Tina checks the seller and price, then sends you one clear total including her service charge.

Step 3

Pay for the items

Payment one covers the goods and local China shipping. Pay by PayPal, Bitcoin or Zelle.

Way two β€” shop the catalogue

Step 1

Shop Tina's catalogue

Browse items Tina has already checked and priced, with photos and honest notes.

Step 2

Add to your cart

Everything in your cart ships together, so you only pay international shipping once.

Step 3

Checkout

Confirm your address, accept the policies and pay β€” your order appears instantly in Orders.

Then, for everyone

From warehouse to your door

Step 4

Arrives at Tina's warehouse

Every parcel is booked in, weighed and measured, and matched to your order.

Step 5

Inspection photos

You get real photos of the actual item β€” colour, stitching, size labels and any flaw.

Step 6

You approve or reject

Happy? Approve it. Not right? Tell Tina and she'll sort a replacement or refund.

Step 7

Pay shipping and fly

Payment two covers international shipping for the final packed weight. Then it's on the plane.

Step 8

Delivered to your door

Track it the whole way. Every photo and message stays in your order history.

Warehouse aisle where parcels are received, inspected and consolidated

Built around consolidation

Shipping several small parcels separately is the most expensive way to buy across borders. Tina holds your items until you are ready, then packs them into a single outbound parcel.

Timelines, fees and inspection detail vary by product category and season.
