Who runs this site
A small independent guide to buying from Weidian. Not the platform, not an agent, and paid for by referral commission, which is stated on every page.
Independence
What this site is not
Three things, because each one costs somebody a wasted day when they get it wrong.
We are not Weidian. That platform is run by Beijing Koudai Fashion Technology Co., Ltd., filed in China under Jing ICP Bei 11022687, which is printed in the footer of their own site. We have no relationship with them. The Weidian mark belongs to them and is used here to name the platform we write about.
We are not a shopping agent. We hold no stock, take no payments and ship nothing. If you have an order, it exists in your agent's system and only they can see it.
We are not a support channel. We cannot look up a parcel, chase a seller or issue a refund. Writing to us about an order costs you time you could spend writing to the people who can act on it.

How this site is paid for
We are a partner of LoongBuy. Links to them on this site carry a referral code, and we earn a commission if you open an account through one. There is no cost to you and no difference in what you pay.
Three things follow from that, and we would rather state them than have you work them out:
- There are no rankings here. A site paid by referral has an obvious reason to name a winner. We compare single measurable facts with dates instead.
- The fee figures are not ours. They come from a third party that measures them, with the measurement date printed next to the number.
- Other agents are named and linked. If a comparison only ever mentioned the one we are paid by, it would not be a comparison.
You should apply the same scepticism to this site that the rest of it recommends you apply to catalogues. The three checks work here too.

Write to About this guide and corrections. A person reads it.
Useful things to send: a link on this site that has died, a figure that no longer matches what you were charged, a route format we have missed, or a correction with something we can check against. Corrections get made and the date on the updates page moves.
Not useful, and we are sorry in advance: anything about a specific order. We have no access to any agent's system and cannot help. Your agent's support channel is the only route that leads anywhere.
