Independent research on purchasing agents, shipping, and the international rep buying community. No affiliations. No paid placements. Just research.
Superbuy Spreadsheet is an independent research hub built to help international buyers navigate the purchasing agent ecosystem. The site covers Superbuy and its main competitors — Pandabuy, Wegobuy, CSSBuy, and others — with a focus on the practical information buyers need before placing their first order or optimising a regular haul workflow.
The content is built around what buyers actually search for: fee structures, agent comparisons, QC photo guides, shipping method analysis, and sourcing resources. Every page is researched and written for people who are actively planning a purchase, not for people who want to browse general overview content. The tools — fee calculator, agent comparison, QC checklist — are built to produce actionable outputs, not just display information.
This site does not receive payments from purchasing agents or any other commercial entity to feature, promote, or rank their services. Comparison results and recommendations reflect our independent research assessment. Where external links lead to agent platforms, we note this clearly.
APU Research Labs is an independent research operation focused on the intersection of Chinese e-commerce, international logistics, and the purchasing agent market. We maintain research sites covering multiple segments of the purchasing agent ecosystem — from general agent comparisons to category-specific guides for buyers focused on specific product types.
Our research methodology combines direct platform assessment, community data analysis, and ongoing monitoring of fee structure and service quality changes across the major purchasing agents. We do not rely on agent-provided materials as our primary source; our assessments are cross-referenced against community experience and verified through independent analysis.
We publish when we have something accurate and useful to say. Our preference for quality over quantity means a smaller number of well-researched pages over a large volume of thin content. Every page on this site is intended to be the best available resource on its specific topic for an English-speaking international buyer.
This site contains links to external platforms including purchasing agents and retail sites. Some links may be referral or affiliate links that provide a small commission or account credit when a new user registers through them. This does not affect our editorial assessment of these platforms — agent rankings and recommendations are based on our independent research regardless of affiliate relationships.
All content on this site is published for informational and research purposes. We are not a purchasing agent and do not facilitate purchases directly. Information about fee structures, shipping rates, and agent capabilities reflects our research as of the dates shown on each page and may change as platforms update their offerings.
