Traps & fixes

Ten traps, and how each one gets avoided

A first order deserves gentleness, so here are the ten habits that make it rough instead. Each one comes with the softer correction that keeps a beginner order calm from row to doorstep.

  1. 1

    Let photo count and the annotated notes guide the first pick

    Lovegobuy annotates the QC images with measurements precisely so a beginner does not have to guess. Reading those notes is the gentlest way to start.

    Safer move: Choosing the prettiest row too quickly

  2. 2

    Measure one garment you already love, then match centimetres

    Sizes shift seller to seller and China cuts often run small. The annotated measurement on the row exists so a first order fits.

    Safer move: Buying the size on your usual tag

  3. 3

    Write down what you paid and look up the duty threshold

    Declaration shapes the customs outcome on every route. Beginners who invent a number are the ones whose parcels stall.

    Safer move: Guessing what to declare

  4. 4

    Let the order rest, then send one gentle parcel

    Each separate parcel pays its own base charge. Consolidation keeps a first order affordable as well as simple.

    Safer move: Sending things out as they arrive

  5. 5

    Look at the measured images before you approve anything

    The annotations are there so a wrong shade or a short sleeve is caught while it is still free to fix.

    Safer move: Skimming the annotated photographs
