If you're a Supreme enthusiast outside China, buying authentic items can be challenging due to regional restrictions and high resale prices. Fortunately, Hoobuy, a Chinese forwarding and proxy service, provides a seamless solution to shop from Taobao. This guide walks you through the process while introducing a helpful tool—Find's Spreadsheet—for tracking Supreme drops.

Why Use Hoobuy for Supreme Purchases?

Taobao hosts numerous independent sellers offering Supreme products, often at lower prices than Western resellers. However, international buyers face hurdles like language barriers, payment restrictions, and shipping limitations. Hoobuy solves these issues by:

• Proxy Shopping: Orders items on your behalf using a Chinese warehouse address.
• Consolidation: Combines multiple packages to save shipping costs.
• Quality Inspection: Verifies authenticity before international dispatch.
• Tax Optimization: Declares lower values to reduce customs duties (where applicable).

Step-by-Step Guide

1. Find Supreme Listings on Taobao

Search Taobao using terms like "Supreme box logo" (使用 "Supreme 帽衫" for hoodies). For efficiency, leverage Find's Spreadsheet, which aggregates Taobao Supreme listings with price comparisons and seller ratings. This tool helps you avoid scams and locate the best deals.

2. Register on Hoobuy

Sign up on Hoobuy’s website to receive a dedicated Chinese warehouse address. Copy this address as your Taobao shipping destination during checkout.

3. Submit Your Order to Hoobuy

After Taobao purchase, provide Hoobuy with your order details via their dashboard. They’ll handle domestic shipping to their warehouse. Alternatively, use Hoobuy’s "Expert Service" where their agents place orders for you (ideal for time-sensitive Supreme drops).

4. Consolidation & Shipping

Once items arrive at Hoobuy’s warehouse, they repackage parcels to minimize volumetric weight. Choose from shipping options like DHL (faster) or China Post (budget-friendly). Pro tip: Enable "Original Box Removal" to further reduce costs.

Key Tips for Success

• Monitor Prices: Use Find's Spreadsheet

• Insure High-Value Items: For rare Supreme pieces, add shipping insurance.
