ZentBuy Spreadsheet Loupe

The ZentBuy Spreadsheet, sixteen shelves under five lenses

Sixteen short shelves of unbranded 1688 picks, grouped by what you will check in the warehouse photos rather than by department.

Sorted by inspection, not by department

Most product catalogs sort by department: tops, bottoms, shoes, bags. This one sorts by what you will look at when the warehouse photos arrive. Hoodies and jeans sit together because both are judged at the seams; sneakers and caps sit together because both are judged by outline; a power bank and a perfume oil sit together because the warehouse opens neither. Five lens families, sixteen shelves, three picks on each.

Every pick is an unbranded 1688 listing found through ZentBuy's own search on October 24, 2026, with its price on that day, its monthly sales where the search data gives them, a zoom point drawn as the orange circle on its photo, and the custom photo worth asking for.

Full categories when three picks are not enough

Three picks per shelf is deliberately short. When you want the long version, each category below opens a much larger product listing with filters and prices.
