About OrientDig with QC

What this site is, where its finds and QC photos come from, and how it pays for itself.

What this site is

OrientDig with QC is a free, independent site: a searchable OrientDig spreadsheet with a QC photo finder attached. OrientDig does not run it. Everything that involves your money (the order, the payment, the shipping) happens on orientdig.com.

Where each link takes you

Every Buy button on this site opens orientdig.com, on the page for that exact listing. A Weidian find opens as orientdig.com/product/?shop_type=weidian&id=…, a Taobao link as orientdig.com/product/?shop_type=taobao&id=… and a 1688 link as orientdig.com/product/?shop_type=ali_1688&id=…, each with this site's referral code added.

How the site is paid for

Links to OrientDig carry a referral code. If you create an account or order through one, the site may earn a commission from OrientDig, at no cost to you, and without changing the price you pay. Browsing, search and the QC finder are free with no account, and no listing is placed or ranked because anyone paid for it.

How the spreadsheet stays current

When a find is retired and the same product is still listed under another address, its old page redirects there instead of turning into a dead end.

About the QC photos

From public QC databases: photos agents' warehouses took of items other buyers ordered. They are matched to the seller's listing rather than to the agent, so a photo taken for someone on a different agent shows exactly what that seller ships. 1667 finds on this spreadsheet have photos on record right now; the rest are checked live when you open them. Photos are resized and served by this site, and the source databases' own watermarks are covered.

Where the finds come from

The 9,384 finds are Weidian listings the rep community actually hauls from, collected with the seller's own photos, colourways, size lists and prices. Prices are not a live feed, so always confirm the price on OrientDig before you pay.

When something here is wrong

A listing on orientdig.com always outranks this page: if the two disagree on a price or on whether an item still exists, OrientDig is right, and the next rebuild of the spreadsheet catches up.

Weidian is where these finds are listed, and 1688 and Taobao links work in the tools too.
