What are QC photos in W2C shopping?

QC photos are warehouse photos uploaded by an agent after a seller ships the item. Buyers use them to confirm size, color, shape, tags and visible flaws before international shipping.

When should I ask for extra QC photos?

Ask for extra photos when labels, measurements, logos, pair shape, hardware, color or packaging are unclear. Extra photos are most useful before approving shoes, bags, jackets and pants.

Should I return a product after bad QC photos?

Return or exchange when the option is wrong, the shape is clearly off, damage is visible, sizing is not what you ordered or the product does not match the route images.

Category checks

What to inspect by product type

Different categories fail in different ways. Use the relevant checklist instead of applying the same generic rule to every item.

Zapatillas

Check toe box, heel shape, outsole color, glue marks, size tag, box label, both shoes side by side and whether the box increases volume weight.

Browse shoe routes ->

Hoodies and T-shirts

Check print placement, neck tag, wash tag, blank thickness, sleeve length, collar shape and whether the selected color matches the route.

Browse tops ->

Jackets and puffers

Check puffiness, zipper, badge position, cuffs, hood, inner label and parcel volume. Ask for extra photos if the item is compressed.

Browse jackets ->

Pants and shorts

Check waist measurement, length, wash, distressing, pocket shape, tag position and whether the silhouette matches product photos.

Browse pants ->

Bolsos

Check hardware tone, stitching, strap, zipper, logo spacing, interior photos, dust bag and packaging protection.

Browse bags ->

Accesorios

Check small logos, metal finish, engraving, packaging, quantity and whether fragile pieces need protective shipping.

Browse accessories ->

Decision rules
