Who keeps this OOTDBuy Spreadsheet, and who pays for it
Best OOTDBuy Spreadsheet is written by a small independent editorial desk. We publish reader guides to buying agents, and we are funded by referral links.
We are not OOTDBUY. We hold no stock, we take no payments, and we cannot see, change, cancel or refund your orders. If you need something done to an order, that has to go to OOTDBUY support.
What we will and will not publish
These are working rules, not marketing. They are the reason several pages here are shorter than a competitor version of the same page.
We will publish
- Mechanisms: how a fee is structured, what a window means, who carries a risk
- Figures that OOTDBUY publishes, quoted with the notice and the date we read it
- Links we have actually requested and confirmed
- The cases where using an agent is the wrong call
We will not publish
- Freight rates, delivery estimates or coupon values, because they change and a stale number is worse than none
- Quality rankings for replica items, which nobody can substantiate
- Seller recommendations, since we have not bought from them
- Anything an official page contradicts
How this is funded, in plain terms
When you register at OOTDBUY through a link on this site, OOTDBUY credits this guide as the referrer. That is the entire business model. There is no sponsorship, no paid placement and no affiliate arrangement with any seller or marketplace.
The obvious objection is that a site paid on referrals has a reason to tell you to buy. Our answer is the structure of the site: the page that gets the most traffic tells you what inspection will not do for you, and there is a section on the home page listing the situations where you should not use an agent at all. If that reads as odd for a referral funded site, it is meant to.
Outbound links to OOTDBUY carry rel="nofollow", and every card is badged with what kind of page it leads to before you click it.
Corrections
Write to [email protected]. We answer corrections, broken links and takedown requests. If a figure here disagrees with the official OOTDBUY page, the official page is right, and we would rather hear it from you than leave it wrong.
This guide covers OOTDBUY specifically. Our sister guide at ootdbuysheet.com covers the same agent from the fees and logistics angle, and the catalogue we link out to is maintained by the same desk. That shared ownership is why they link to each other, and why none of them pretends to be an independent review of the others.
