Step 1: Research and Product Selection on Weidian
Begin by exploring Weidian. This platform hosts countless sellers offering Lancasterthis product introduction spreadsheet, which may highlight available deals and specific seller information for Lancaster and other brands.
Step 2: Registering and Setting Up Your Oopbuy Account
Once you have the product link(s) from Weidian, head to the Oopbuy website. Complete the straightforward registration process. A critical feature of Oopbuy is its personal warehouse address. Upon signing up, you will receive a unique Chinese mailing address. This address serves as your collection point in China where Oopbuy will receive your purchases before forwarding them internationally. Ensure you copy this address accurately.
Step 3: Submitting Your Purchase Order on Oopbuy
Log into your Oopbuy account and locate the “Place Order” or “Procurement Request” section. Here, you will paste the complete URL of the Lancaster product page from Weidian. Fill in all necessary details: product name, color/size, quantity, and maximum price you’re willing to pay. Oopbuy’s system will then generate a service fee estimate, which includes their purchasing commission and initial domestic shipping to their warehouse. Confirm and submit the order for their agents to process.
Step 4: Payment and Oopbuy’s Procurement
Proceed to pay the estimated amount using Oopbuy’s supported international payment methods, which may include credit cards, PayPal, or wire transfers. After payment confirmation, Oopbuy’s professional shoppers will purchase the item from the Weidian seller on your behalf. They will handle all communication with the seller, ensuring your specifications are met. You can typically track this stage within your Oopbuy account dashboard.
Step 5: Warehouse Receipt and International Shipping
Once the Lancaster products arrive at your designated Oopbuy warehouse address, their staff will inspect the items, store them, and update your account with photos for verification. This is your chance to confirm you received the correct items. After confirmation, you will apply for international shipping. You’ll select a carrier (e.g., DHL, EMS, FedEx), declare the package contents and value, and pay the final shipping fee calculated based on weight, volume, and destination.
