Hoobuy Spreadsheet Checklist Before Saving a Find
Seven-point checklist
Tick each point as you review. Your selections stay in this browser tab and are not submitted.
Score your row
Not every point has equal weight
The total is only a way to sort the list; it is not a quality rating. A row can score well and still fail on one essential requirement. If sizing is critical, missing measurements may be a stop condition. If the item is electronic, unclear compatibility can outweigh several attractive photos.
Write down one non-negotiable check before scoring. This keeps the checklist tied to your actual use case.
QC photos by category
Shoes benefit from side, sole, heel, toe, and size-label views. Bags need interior, closure, strap, and scale photos. Clothing needs front, back, seam, fabric, label, and measurement views. Watches and jewelry need clear close-ups and dimensions. Electronics need visible specifications and compatibility details.
Good row example
A jacket row names the category, includes front and back photos, lining and zip close-ups, a measurement table, a relevant source link, and a weight note. It still needs checking, but it gives you useful questions to compare.
Weak row example
A row says only “must buy,” shows one cropped image, has no measurements, and opens an unclear destination. A low sticker price does not repair those missing details.
Borderline row example
A bag row has clear exterior photos, dimensions, and a relevant source, but no interior view or strap measurement. It may score four or five points. Keep it in “research more,” write down the missing interior and strap details, and compare it with a neighboring row that shows them.
One-sentence save rule
Save a row only when you can explain which visible details make it worth comparing again.
If that sentence depends on popularity, urgency, or a vague “best” label, the row has not earned a place yet.
What to do next
Remove the lowest-scoring rows, compare the survivors inside one category, then review weight and safety notes before opening external destinations. If two candidates remain close, prefer the row that answers the question that matters most, not the one with the loudest label.
