This page follows publicly visible Hipobuy rules instead of vague claims. Where Hipobuy does not publish a fixed price, the page tells users to check the order, warehouse or payment screen.
Not fixed on public pages
Sources checked: Hipobuy Service & Fees, Shipping Estimate, Help Center, homepage banners and public notice pages. Unpublished prices should not be written as facts.
Is Hipobuy’s shopping-agent service free?
The public Service & Fees page says Hipobuy promises a free shopping-agent service. That does not mean the whole order is free: users still pay product cost, domestic shipping when charged by the seller, international shipping and any customs/declaration costs.
How should I explain Hipobuy fees on this site?
Use the formula: product price + domestic China shipping + international shipping + customs/declaration charges + optional value-added services. Do not promise a final total before the route, weight and destination are known.
How is international shipping calculated?
Hipobuy’s estimator uses destination country, parcel weight, product type and dimensions. Some lines charge by actual weight; others may use volumetric or first-weight/extra-weight rules. The final route page is the source of truth.
How many free QC photos does Hipobuy provide?
The public pages reviewed confirm warehouse inspection/quality-check results, but they do not clearly publish a fixed number of free QC photos. Tell users to check the warehouse order page before paying for shipment.
How much are extra photos or video service?
Do not write a fixed number unless you have a current screenshot from the order/value-added service screen. The public pages reviewed did not clearly confirm a fixed extra-photo or video-shooting price.
Are coupons guaranteed?
No. Coupons depend on the account, campaign, route and expiration date. Write coupon pages as a guide and tell users to check the current Hipobuy account or campaign banner.
Can all items be shipped to Europe?
No. The shipping estimator warns that prohibited goods, cigarettes, alcohol and some medicines are not carried; food, liquids, granules and paste-like goods can require extra proof or may be restricted by route.
What should W2C pages do?
W2C pages should explain where-to-cop intent, route users to categories/product links, and then lead them to QC and shipping pages before payment.
What should QC pages do?
QC pages should teach users to check visible details such as size, colour, damage, stitching, label placement and item match. They should not claim QC guarantees authenticity or every material detail.
