Receiving checkpoint

Marketplace buying needs a physical receiving layer.

A listing is not proof of what arrived. Each inbound parcel is tied to the seller, SKU, expected quantity and buyer instruction before goods are consolidated.

For payment, returns and consolidation detail, read the overseas buyer’s guide to buying from 1688.
