Step-by-Step: Sorting and Comparing Sellers
To make an informed choice, follow this systematic approach.
2. Sort by QC Pass Rate
Sort the column from highest to lowest. Prioritize sellers with a consistently high pass rate (often above 95%). This significantly reduces your risk of receiving a flawed product.
3. Compare Pricing Within Tiers
Among the top-performing sellers, compare their pricing columns. Ask yourself: Is a slightly higher price from Seller A justified by a 5% higher QC rate compared to Seller B?
4. Dive Deep into User Comments
This is your qualitative research phase. Scan comments for:
- Consistent praise or complaints about material quality.
- Notes on seller communication (e.g., responds quickly to messages).
- Mentions of shipping time or packaging quality.
5. Cross-Reference for a Final Decision
Your ideal seller is likely the one with a strong balance of a high QC pass rate, fair pricingpositive, consistent comments
Pro Tips for Effective Use
- Look for volume. A seller with 100+ transactions and a 98% pass rate is more reliable than one with 10 transactions at 100%.
- Be wary of sellers with a high pass rate but numerous comments about slow communication—this could mean hassle if issues arise.
- Check the "last updated" date of the spreadsheet. The most recent data is the most relevant.
