BBDbuy QC & Storage

Before anything ships, BBDbuy inspects and photographs your item. Here's what QC means, how to read the photos, and how 90 days of free storage lets you consolidate with confidence.

What is QC?

Quality control before it ships

"QC" means quality control. When your item arrives at the BBDbuy warehouse, the team inspects it and takes 3–5 free QC photos, checking for defects and confirming size and colour against your order. The photos appear in your account so you can approve the item before it's packed.

  • Strict inspection for defects, correct size and colour
  • 3–5 clear photos per order, free of charge
  • Approve, ask questions, or start a return before shipping
Reading QC

What to check in every QC photo

A quick, consistent checklist beats a vague glance. Run through these before you approve.

Shape & proportion

Does the silhouette look right versus the listing photos? Check collars, panels and overall cut.

Size & tag

Confirm the size label matches what you ordered, and sanity-check any measurements against your usual fit.

Colour

Screens and lighting shift colour. Look for the shade under neutral light and compare to the seller image.

Stitching & logos

Zoom into seams, stitching density and any printed or embroidered logos for neatness.

Defects

Scan for stains, loose threads, glue marks, scratches or damage. Flag anything that looks off.

Completeness

Check the set is complete — extra parts, dust bags or accessories that should be included.

Not happy with the QC? You can raise it before packing. Some sellers support returns within a short window — see Returns & Support.

90 days to gather your haul

Every order gets up to 90 days of free warehouse storage. That window is what makes consolidation possible: buy from several sellers over a few weeks, let everything collect in the warehouse, then ship it all together in one measured parcel to save on freight.

  • Keep adding items and consolidate whenever you're ready
  • Extended storage is available if you need longer
  • Ship before the free window ends to avoid extra handling

QC FAQ

Common QC questions

When are QC photos taken?
Right after your item arrives at the BBDbuy warehouse and before the parcel is packed — so you can review the 3–5 photos in your account and approve, ask questions, or start a return before anything ships.
Can I request more or specific photos?
The standard set is free. If you need extra angles or measurements for a specific concern, you can ask support — additional or specialised checks may be offered as a value-added service.
What if the QC shows a problem?
Raise it before you ship. Depending on the seller and the issue, you may be able to exchange or return the item within the allowed window. See Returns & Support for eligibility and who pays.
Does QC guarantee the item is authentic or perfect?
QC is a visual inspection for defects, size and colour — it's there to catch obvious problems before shipping, not a certification of authenticity. Use the photos to make an informed decision before you approve.
