BaseTao is a China-based shipping and purchasing agent that runs two routes into one warehouse: Buy for Me for items it purchases from an original marketplace listing, and Ship for Me for parcels you already bought from a Chinese seller and only need forwarded. Both routes feed the same warehouse stage for arrival logging, QC photos, 120 days of free storage, consolidation or splitting, and international delivery. Published policies also list a CNY 1.50 measurement service and optional parcel insurance.
CSSBuy is a Chinese shopping agent that treats buying and international shipping as two separate decisions. The first payment covers the item and China domestic delivery; after the goods reach the warehouse you can review QC photos, consolidate parcels, choose a route and pay international freight calculated from the packed parcel. It is commonly used together with a spreadsheet of original Taobao, Weidian and 1688 links.
GTBuy is a China shopping agent that presents the order as a warehouse-based sequence: assisted purchasing, seller dispatch, warehouse receipt, QC review, then international parcel dispatch. Our testing team worked through that path and the key point for buyers is timing — you verify the original listing first, then choose an international route only after the goods are received, inspected, and packed into a parcel.
