Independent seller checks

Kakobuy Spreadsheet Seller Check Notes

Ask what the listing itself can support before the row earns a place in the sheet.

These notes read pages, not reputations; they never label a shop trustworthy, only more or less consistent with its own listing.

Resource workflow Seller Check

Plausibility is a reading exercise, not a verdict

Four observable signals decide whether a source deserves a row, and every signal stays tied to what the page actually showed.

  1. 01
    Listing coherence The item title, photos, and option list should describe one product, not three adjacent ones.
  2. 02
    Shop consistency The shop's other visible listings should sit near the same category the row claims.
  3. 03
    Option wording Exact size and color text should read like catalog wording, not machine-mixed fragments.

Check outcomes

Three outcomes end every check

Consistent

The signals agree; the row saves with its observation date and noted gaps.

Mixed

One signal disagrees; the row saves flagged with the exact mismatch to recheck.

Doubtful

Signals conflict on identity itself; the source waits outside the sheet.

Recheck due

A flagged row names the exact mismatch its next check must resolve.

Quick FAQ

Short answers on seller checks

Is this a seller rating?

No. The check records observable listing consistency for one row, nothing about the shop overall.

What if photos look professional?

Professional photos are just photos; the check asks whether they match the item and options shown.

Can a doubtful source be saved anyway?

Only outside the working sheet, with the conflicting signals written next to it.

Four signals

Read the listing before saving it

Each signal compares one part of the listing against another; mismatches produce questions, not accusations.

  1. Listing coherence The item title, photos, and option list should describe one product, not three adjacent ones.
  2. Shop consistency The shop's other visible listings should sit near the same category the row claims.
  3. Option wording Exact size and color text should read like catalog wording, not machine-mixed fragments.
  4. Photo set The views shown should fit the product type; gaps get recorded, not filled from elsewhere.

Check path

One listing, one decision, one dated note

The path reads the whole listing first, compares its parts second, and writes the outcome third so the decision stays auditable.

No seller rating, authenticity claim, stock count, or outcome is asserted.

Reusable output

The output is one seller check record

A second reader should be able to retrace the observation, compare the saved fields, and see exactly where the record stops claiming anything.

Listing coherence

The item title, photos, and option list should describe one product, not three adjacent ones.

Shop consistency

The shop's other visible listings should sit near the same category the row claims.

Option wording

Exact size and color text should read like catalog wording, not machine-mixed fragments.

Stop rules

Pause when the record would hide uncertainty

A named gap keeps the row honest; a filled-looking gap borrows confidence the source never provided.

  • The final page does not resolve to the expected item.
  • A required field is missing from the live listing.
  • Two observations disagree and neither is dated.

Start the next seller check from one row

Keep the record small, dated, and tied to one exact source.
