Kakobuy FAQ
Every answer points to Kakox as the transaction layer — this guide never sells.
Quick Answer
How should first-time Kakobuy spreadsheet users use this FAQ?
Start with “About this guide” to understand the ref funnel and non-merchant status, jump to “Products & images” for the _284x284 vs original split and deduplicated gallery, use “Search & navigation” to learn the new-tab-only search and “See all results → products” pattern, then pick an agent via the 25-agent table and run the 9 tools before paying.

About this guide
Is kakobuy.homes a store?
No. It is a referral guide. We cache Kakox _284x284 thumbs for speed, show the full Kakox gallery in a modal, and every product button goes to https://kakox.com/product/{slug}?ref=kakobuy.homes. No cart, no checkout, no inventory on this host — Google should see Organization/WebSite, not Merchant.
Why all Kakox links have ref=kakobuy.homes?
To track source traffic. Every jump — product detail, agent, search, category, top CTA — appends ref=kakobuy.homes via appendSiteRef / addSiteRef. That lets Kakox know the visit came from this spreadsheet guide.
How is this different from Kakox itself?
Kakox is the live table with filters, wishlist and checkout via Kakobuy. This domain is a curated, SEO-friendly entry point with 90 hand-picked finds, 40 guides and 9 tools that all funnel to Kakox — no duplicate store layer.
Products & images
Why list shows _284x284 and modal shows originals?
Per spec: list uses https://kakox.com/api/static/products/WEIDIAN_{spuNo}_{idx}_284x284.{webp|gif} (≈ 25KB) for fast load; modal uses the original https://kakox.com/api/static/products/WEIDIAN_{spuNo}_{idx}.{webp|gif} full gallery. Client caches thumbs in Cache API + localStorage so repeat visits don’t re-download.
Are galleries complete with no repeats?
Yes. Modal builds gallery from Kakox detail images (WEIDIAN_{spuNo}_1..4), deduplicates via Set, and shows 4 photos per product by default. If a Kakox detail has 3 on Kakox, we show exactly 3 — no synthetic duplicates.
What about Valentino Chunky Sneakers [21 styles] etc?
Spec says items without a valid _284x284 thumb should be removed. Our sync filters banned names and we only keep items where a _284x284 thumb URL is constructible and loads; 90 of 100 Kakox items passed, 10 dropped.
How do I buy?
Click card → modal → “Buy on Kakox” or “View Kakox Detail” — both are https://kakox.com/product/{slug}?ref=kakobuy.homes opened in a new tab (target=_blank, rel=noopener).
Search & navigation
Search box behavior?
Per spec: typing and clicking Search does NOT navigate the current page. It only opens a new tab to https://kakox.com/search?q={query}&ref=kakobuy.homes. Input stays on this guide.
See all results?
The search dropdown shows up to 5 local suggestions with thumbs, then a sticky footer “See all results →” that links to https://kakox.com/products?ref=kakobuy.homes (spec: /products). Background is solid bg-white with border/super shadow — not transparent.
Top, mid and bottom Kakox CTAs?
We place Kakox jumps in announcement bar, hero, stats, mid-strip, spreadsheet header, grid footer, about, comparison and final CTA — all with bg-brand-600 → hover red and ref param, not random stack.
Agents
How many agents?
25 from the prompt plus Pandabuy and Loongbuy for coverage → 27 in directory. Each official URL is exact (e.g., Kakobuy ?affcode=kcqg2, Litbuy ?inviteCode=VK910770P, CNFans ?ref=16170695).
What is the extra “Spreadsheet Agent” button?
For joyagoo, kakobuy, acbuy, allchinabuy, litbuy, loongbuy, sugargoo, eastmallbuy, lovegobuy, mulebuy we render a second button beside the official jump: https://kakox.com/agent/{slug}?ref=kakobuy.homes — same slug as platform.
Do all agents have detail pages?
Yes. /agents/{slug} and /compare/{slug} both resolve (agents is canonical per spec). Each slug has a distinct layout — not a cloned template — with pros/cons, fee table, storage, QC and route data. Pandabuy’s page exists (spec explicitly requires /agents/pandabuy).
Shipping & QC
How long is free storage?
Varies by agent: Kakobuy/Litbuy/ACBuy up to 180 days (long), Most 90 days, Joyagoo/HubBuyCN 60 days. Every agent card shows storage_data.free_days and abandoned parcel policy.
What QC checklist do you recommend?
Use the QC Photo Checklist tool (interactive, per category). Sneakers: tag + heel tab + pair symmetry; Clothing: measurements vs size chart; Bags: monogram alignment + hardware engraving. Modal’s “QC Tips” popup summarizes this.
Volumetric weight?
Use the Volumetric Calculator tool (kg vs volumetric). Rule: volumetric = L×W×H / 5000 (or agent divisor). If volumetric > actual, you pay volumetric — removing shoe boxes cuts billed weight.
Privacy & tools
Do I need an account on this guide?
No. Per spec we removed login, comments, real-time collab, Discord bot and account code/docs. All tools are no-signup and instantly usable.
Which tools are available?
9 tools: Fee Calculator, Currency Converter (editable CNY→USD/EUR), Volumetric/Weight, Shipping Estimator, Size Converters (shoe/clothing), QC Checklist, Declaration Helper and Profit Calculator — all fool-proof with presets and validation.
Telegram and Back to Top?
Fixed bottom-right: blue Telegram (#229ED9, t.me/+J21cp-pdj142NDY1) and white back-to-top (appears after 400px scroll). Both have shadow and hover scale.
