ACBuy QC Checklist

A systematic QC checklist prevents oversight during the crucial inspection phase. This comprehensive checklist covers every detail you should verify before approving your order for shipment. Use it consistently to maintain high standards and reduce the likelihood of receiving disappointing items.

General Appearance Check

Begin with overall visual assessment. Verify that the item matches the color shown in listing photos under neutral lighting conditions. Confirm that proportions and silhouette align with expectations based on size charts and reference images. Check for obvious stains, discoloration, or damage visible from standard viewing distance. Ensure that packaging appears intact without crushing or moisture damage that might have affected the contents.

Construction Detail Inspection

Examine stitching quality along all seams, hems, and attachment points. Straight, even stitching indicates careful construction while wandering or skipped stitches suggest quality issues. Check thread color matching at seam intersections where different fabric pieces join. Verify button, zipper, and hardware attachment security by examining how firmly they connect to the base material. Inspect inside construction including linings, finishing, and internal labels that reveal manufacturing standards.

Logo and Branding Verification

For items with visible branding elements, verify positioning accuracy against reference standards. Check embroidery or print quality for consistency in thread density, color accuracy, and alignment. Measure logo placement distances from seams and edges to confirm proportional correctness. Examine font characteristics including letter spacing, thickness, and overall proportions. Note any discrepancies that might indicate quality variation from the expected standard.

Final Approval Steps

Before final approval, confirm that all ordered items appear in the QC photo set with correct quantities. Verify that any special requests noted during ordering have been fulfilled, such as tag removal or specific packaging preferences. Cross-reference the warehouse measurement photos against the size chart you used when ordering. Only approve shipment after completing every checklist item to your satisfaction.
