Frequently Asked Questions
Which batch is best for shoes on AllChinaBuy?
It depends on the specific silhouette. The spreadsheet typically labels PK or LJR as top-tier for most retros, while M-batch covers a wider range at a mid-tier price point. Always cross-check the latest community reviews before ordering.
How do I verify color accuracy before shipping?
Request QC photos in natural daylight, not warehouse fluorescent lighting. Compare against retail reference images from the same production season if possible.
Do shoes from AllChinaBuy come with a box?
Some sellers include the retail box by default; others charge extra or ship without it to reduce shipping weight. Confirm this before payment to avoid surprises.
What if the size runs small?
Check the spreadsheet size-guide column and measure your insole length. Many community members recommend going half a size up for narrow-toe-box silhouettes.
