The short answers.
Everything else lives on Discord — real humans, fast.
What is the Taobao Sourcing Service?
A concierge shopping experience built for cosplayers. We bridge the gap between you and Taobao — handling the purchasing, optional quality inspection, and international logistics so you don't have to.
How do I find and order items?
Three ways. Reverse image search (drop a photo), keyword search (character or series), or paste a Taobao URL directly. Pick your size, check out like a standard online store. No depositing funds, no agent dashboards.
What does it cost?
The displayed item price includes a markup over the converted seller price. Add shipping, a 15% service fee on (displayed item price + shipping), and the optional quality check, normally $5 per item and selected by default. The final total is shown before payment. For example: displayed item $35 + shipping $20 + service $8.25 + QC $5 = $68.25.
What if an item is out of stock?
Taobao inventory moves fast. If your item's gone we'll refund in full or help you pick an alternative — your call. We reach out on Discord to sort it quickly.
How long does it take?
Typical delivery is 10-21 calendar days from order confirmation. Made-to-order pieces are usually estimated at up to 4 weeks; custom work, production delays, Chinese holidays, or customs can take longer. These are estimates, not guarantees. The door-to-door estimate includes seller processing, the quality check in China if selected, and international transit with tracking.
Why might a made-to-order costume take longer?
Many Taobao cosplay costumes are made to order, meaning the seller cuts and sews your size after you buy rather than shipping from a shelf. Production time varies a lot from one maker to the next, and Chinese public holidays (Chinese New Year, Golden Week) can add to it, so there's no fixed ship-out date we can promise on a made-to-order piece. From order confirmation, estimate 10-21 calendar days for a piece that ships from stock and usually up to 4 weeks for a made-to-order one; custom work or delays can take longer. If a seller is slow, we chase them for you and keep you posted on Discord.
Where do I go for support?
Discord. Every support conversation happens there — whether it's an order question or help finding something obscure.
Returns or guarantees?
Because this is a direct sourcing service to third-party sellers, items are final sale. For a curated experience with full returns, shop the Official CosParty Collection instead.
Why this over a traditional agent?
Standard checkout — no wallets or virtual warehouses. Full pricing upfront. We handle seller communication and tracked shipping. Quality checks are optional, selected by default and normally $5 per item.
