QC photos are your best defense against bad reps. Learn how to request them on Hipobuy, what to look for, and when to reject an item.
What Are QC Photos?
QC (Quality Control) photos are images taken by the Hipobuy warehouse team after they receive your items from the seller. They show the actual product you'll receive — not stock photos. This is your last chance to check quality before the item ships to you.
How to Request QC Photos on Hipobuy
QC photos are automatically taken for all items. You'll receive a notification when they're ready (usually 2–3 days after the seller ships to the warehouse). Log in to your Hipobuy account and navigate to 'My Orders' to view them.
What to Look for in QC Photos
Check these key areas: 1) Logo accuracy and placement, 2) Stitching quality and consistency, 3) Material texture and color accuracy, 4) Sole quality (for shoes), 5) Tag placement and text, 6) Overall shape and proportions. Compare with authentic reference photos.
When to Reject an Item
Reject if you see: obvious logo errors, poor stitching, wrong colorway, significant size issues, or damage. Hipobuy will refund your wallet balance for rejected items. Don't be afraid to reject — it's better than receiving a bad rep.
Tips for Better QC Reviews
Use reference photos from Reddit's rep communities. Check multiple angles. Zoom in on logos and stitching. If unsure, ask the community before approving. Remember: once shipped, you can't return it.
