Nine Litbuy mistakes beginners make (and how to skip them)

Home  /  Avoid mistakes

1. 1
   Choosing by the cheapest shipping quote

   Fix: compare lines on real weight, speed and rules — not just the headline number. See choosing a line.

2. 2
   Trusting tag size over measurements

   Fix: read the seller’s measurement chart and compare with a garment you own.

3. 3
   Skipping the QC photos

   Fix: actually open them and check colour, tags and defects before you ship.

4. 4
   Assuming the spreadsheet price is final

   Fix: confirm the real item price, service fee and shipping inside Litbuy — see markup.

5. 5
   Ignoring restricted items

   Fix: check whether liquids, batteries or certain materials are allowed on your line and to your country.

6. 6
   Expecting unrealistic delivery dates

   Fix: treat any estimate as a range; purchasing time and customs vary.

7. 7
   Not consolidating

   Fix: batch several items into one parcel to spread international shipping.

8. 8
   Losing your records

   Fix: screenshot orders, QC and tracking in case you need support.

9. 9
   Buying big before testing the flow

   Fix: run one small, light order end-to-end first.
