How to Read an ACBUY Spreadsheet Row: Every Column Explained

Open any decent acbuy spreadsheet and you’ll see 12–15 columns per row. New buyers panic at the density. Once you know what each column is for, it takes ~10 seconds to judge a row and decide whether to shortlist it.

Column 1 — Item

Plain-English name plus SKU. If the sheet only shows an image and no SKU, skip it — you can’t search the acbuy qc finder without a SKU.

Column 2 — Category

Nine top-level buckets. On the acbuy spreadsheet, category maps to the mega-dropdown on the homepage nav.

Column 3 — Batch tier

GP, GX, v3, LJR, GF, PK etc. This is the single most important column for shoes and bags. Two sellers can list the same Jordan 1 SKU but different batches — the price gap can be 3x.

Column 4 — Seller URL

Direct link to Weidian, Taobao or 1688. Copy this exact URL into your ACBUY dashboard.

Column 5 — Price (RMB)

Seller price in RMB. Add ~8 % agent fee to estimate the ACBUY invoice.

Column 6 — Price (USD)

Convenience conversion. The RMB column is authoritative — exchange rate moves.

Column 7 — QC album link

This is what separates the best acbuy spreadsheet from the rest. Direct link to fresh QC photos from previous buyers. If the column is blank, ask for a fresh sample photo before ordering.

Column 8 — Score / verdict

Rolling average from the last N QC albums. Anything under 7.5 is a skip. 8.5+ is safe. 9.0+ is a repeat-order candidate.

Column 9 — Last updated

If more than 60 days old, treat the row as stale until you’ve done a fresh QC finder pass.

Columns 10–15 — notes, tags, alternate batches, seller reliability, dead-row flags

Skim these. They’re the safety net that catches “seller stopped shipping” and “batch v3 dropped this week” kinds of intel.
