The Oopbuy link sorter: one link, one door
A familiar link pattern can suggest an ordering method. Paste it below, then confirm the actual listing, purchase eligibility and terms before paying.
Paste a link, see its door
Paste any product link below. The sorter reads only the host name and the path, works entirely in your browser and sends nothing anywhere. It suggests a likely ordering route from a familiar URL pattern. Confirm the actual order screen and terms before paying.
Waiting for a link. Try a Taobao, 1688, Xianyu or Yupoo address.
How to use this tool
Copy the product address from your browser or from a share message and paste it into the box. Share messages often wrap the link in text such as a title or an emoji; the sorter picks out the first web address it finds.
It then looks at two things only: the host name (for example detail.1688.com) and, for oopbuy.com addresses, the first part of the path. Tracking parameters after the question mark are ignored. Nothing you paste leaves your browser.
For a recognised pattern, the answer is a likely route and a link to its guide. An unrecognised host remains unclassified; the tool does not confirm purchase eligibility. If you paste a product name instead of a link, the sorter tells you how keyword search splits results between doors.
Links that need the DIY form
The official DIY order page names four example sources: Xianyu, Xiaohongshu, Bilibili and Yupoo. These links cannot be captured by the search bar, so nothing about the listing is filled in for you.
A shop outside the documented examples is not automatically supported. The older help FAQ and the search bar name different platforms. Try the original public item URL and verify what the order screen captures; if it is not recognised, ask support whether a manual purchase is possible before submitting a DIY order.
One more case: if you have already bought something yourself and had it sent to Oopbuy, that is forwarding, not a DIY order. The forwarding page asks you to log in before it shows the warehouse address.
A Yupoo album deserves a special word. It is a photo gallery run by a seller, not a shop with a checkout, so the link points at a set of pictures rather than a purchasable listing. On the DIY form you will need the seller's contact or the exact photo, the price the seller quoted and the domestic shipping, or the agent has nothing to act on.
Mall listings: Oopbuy Selection, SelfShop and foundry pages
Door 3 is the only door you can enter without a link from outside. It shows up in three places: the SelfShop page with its FOUNDRY SELECT banner, the newer Mall front page, and the Oopbuy Selection tab that keyword searches open on.
A product opened from the Selection tab lands on an address shaped like oopbuy.com/foundry/OFFICIAL/260831665749. That path is the tell. If you see it in the address bar, you are buying from Oopbuy's own shop, not through the agent service.
When one item stands behind two doors
Search for a cap and the first tab shows Selection items; click 1688 and you see caps from third-party sellers. They can look alike. The rules do not.
Bought from the 1688 tab, the cap is an agent order: if the seller offers guaranteed returns, you can request a return within the conditional 120-hour window counted from the next full hour after stock-in, subject to eligibility and seller acceptance. Bought from the Selection tab, it is a Mall item, and we found no published return window written for Mall items.
If the return option matters to you, the agent-order version is the one with written terms. If the price difference matters more, compare total cost including domestic freight, which the agent order adds and the Mall price may or may not include. Oopbuy does not say which on its public pages.
A practical habit: when a keyword search turns up something you like on the Selection tab, click across to the 1688 and Taobao tabs before you pay. If a third-party seller lists the same kind of item with guaranteed returns, you now have a choice between a written return window and whatever the Mall price saves you. If no comparable listing appears in those searches, ask support about the actual Mall item’s return terms before ordering. A search result does not establish that no other seller or option exists.
