OOTDBuy Spreadsheet FAQ

Straight answers about how the directory works, what reference prices mean and what to verify before keeping a product on your shortlist.

Spreadsheet basics

What the directory is—and is not

Use the sheet to discover, filter and compare. It is not a seller, checkout or guarantee that a saved listing has stayed unchanged.

What is an OOTDBuy spreadsheet?

It is a browsable collection of product finds, reference prices and source links. Use it to narrow options before checking the current listing.

Is this an official OOTDBuy website?

No. This is an independent product-discovery guide and is not operated by, authorised by or affiliated with OOTDBuy.

How often should spreadsheet rows be rechecked?

Recheck the live listing whenever you plan to use a row. Prices, variants, seller information, images and availability may change after a find is added.

How do I search the spreadsheet efficiently?

Begin with one category, then add a model, colour or feature—for example “black winter boots” or “grey zip hoodie.” A narrow query produces a shortlist that is easier to compare.

Prices and total cost

Understanding USD reference prices

A spreadsheet price is useful for comparison, but it is not the same thing as a final delivered total.

Are the displayed prices final?

No. Prices are USD reference values captured from source listings. Always verify the live amount for the exact colour, size or version you intend to select.

Why are prices shown in USD?

USD makes the directory easier to compare for international visitors. Exchange rates can move, so the live listing and checkout remain the current source of truth.

What can change the final product cost?

The selected variant, exchange rate, seller promotion, domestic delivery, buying-service fees, international shipping and applicable taxes can all affect the final total.

Does a lower reference price always mean a cheaper order?

No. A bulky product or shoe box can create a higher parcel cost. Compare item price together with likely weight, packed volume and the shipping method you expect to use.

Sizing, QC and orders

Checks before you decide

Use measurements, repeatable photos and current policies instead of relying on a thumbnail or printed size alone.

How should I compare sizes?

Measure an item you already own, compare centimetres in the same direction and use product-specific measurements. For footwear, compare foot and insole length; for clothing, compare chest, shoulders, sleeves and body length.

What should I check in QC photos?

Use a consistent order: front, back, both sides where relevant, labels and measurements, then close-ups of stitching, hardware, edges or other category-specific details.

How do I estimate shipping before ordering?

Use the item weight and packed dimensions when available. Boxes, thick soles and puffer jackets can increase volumetric weight even when the item itself seems light.

Who handles returns or refunds?

The external seller, marketplace or buying service shown at the destination handles its own order, return and refund policies. Read those terms before paying.

One final check

What should I verify before ordering?

Confirm the exact product, selected option, live price, useful measurements, current link, photo coverage and likely parcel impact. If a key detail is missing, keep it visible as an unknown instead of guessing.

EVIDENCE

Measurements and photos

The listing provides enough information to check fit, construction and the details that matter for the category.

Use the QC guide →
COST

Live total and parcel impact

The current item price, delivery charges, likely weight and packed volume still make sense together.

Still comparing?

Use the guide, then check the live row.

Start with the workflow, narrow one category and verify the exact listing before making a decision.
