How to Use the Boonbuy Spreadsheet (2026 Guide)
From sheet row to paid Boonbuy order: fees, QC photos, shipping lines and the traps to skip.
Updated 2026-09-22
What the Boonbuy spreadsheet actually is
Think of the Boonbuy spreadsheet as a curated shelf rather than a search dump. Rows are grouped by category — everyday basics and checklist items included — and each links straight to the source listing, so what you see on Boonbuy is exactly what the seller stocks.
The sheet is refreshed as listings sell out or reprice, which keeps dead links out of your workflow and your cart.
Reading a row: what each column tells you
Ignore nothing in the notes column. It compresses the three things that actually break orders: wrong size conventions, swapped batches, and sellers who quietly list a different colourway than the photos.
The price band is a band on purpose — yuan prices move, and Boonbuy rows are updated in batches rather than tick-by-tick.
Checking fees before you commit
Treat the spreadsheet price as step one of a four-step sum: item, domestic leg, Boonbuy service fee, international line. Practice the sum on three or four rows from everyday basics and checklist items and you will predict your checkout total within a few yuan.
The fee and calculator pages exist for exactly this — keep them open in the next tab while you browse the sheet.
Submitting the order through Boonbuy
Mechanics are simple: copy the row's link into Boonbuy's order field, paste the colourway/size from the notes, and confirm the price matches the sheet's band. If the listing price has drifted far above the band, pause — that row is due an update, and the notes column usually says so.
Submit, pay the item total, and the order moves to the purchasing queue.
QC photos: what to actually look at
QC photos are your one free look, so read them like a checklist instead of a gallery: correct colourway, clean stitching, correct size tag, no stains on light fabrics.
For everyday basics and checklist items rows, the notes column usually names the one defect to hunt for — check that angle first, everything else second.
Shipping lines and landed cost
Weight, not distance, drives most line pricing: minimum charge weights mean light hauls pay a floor price, and volumetric weight punishes boxes full of air.
When Boonbuy shows two lines within a few yuan of each other, take the faster one and spend the difference in your next haul's budget.
Mistakes the sheet is designed to prevent
Finally, keep receipts of your own: screenshots of the row you ordered from, the price you paid, the QC set you approved. If anything goes wrong, that three-screenshot folder is your entire case.
Boonbuy's support works faster with it, and the habit costs nothing.
