May 15, 202610 min read

New to the ponybuy spreadsheet? This beginner-friendly guide walks you through setup, navigation, and finding the best products quickly. By the end, you will know exactly how to use the spreadsheet like a pro.

What You Need to Get Started

Before diving into the ponybuy spreadsheet, make sure you have the following ready:

  • A reliable agent account (for purchasing through the platform)
  • Access to the latest spreadsheet links (bookmark this page for updates)
  • Basic understanding of how Yupoo galleries work
  • A payment method accepted by your chosen agent
  • Patience for shipping times (international delivery typically takes 2-4 weeks)

Step 1: Understanding the Layout

When you open a ponybuy spreadsheet for the first time, you will see a table or grid organized by categories. The typical structure includes:

  • Category Column: Shows the product type (Shoes, Hoodies, Accessories, etc.)
  • Seller Name: Identifies the supplier or Yupoo gallery owner
  • Product Link: The clickable URL to view items
  • Notes: Community feedback, ratings, or special instructions
  • Price Range: Estimated cost category (budget, mid, premium)

Step 2: Browsing Categories

Start by picking a category that interests you. Most beginners start with Shoes or Hoodies because these categories have the largest selection and most community reviews. Click the category link to see all sellers in that section.

When you find a seller you like, click their Yupoo link. This will open an image gallery where you can browse their full catalog. Take note of the item code (usually displayed below each product photo) because you will need it when ordering.

Step 3: Placing Your First Order

Once you have found an item you want to buy, follow these steps:

  1. Copy the Yupoo item link or note the item code
  2. Log into your agent platform account
  3. Paste the link into the agent search bar or submission form
  4. Select your size, color, and any custom options
  5. Submit the order and complete payment
  6. Wait for the agent to purchase the item from the seller
  7. Review QC (quality control) photos when they arrive
  8. Approve the item or request a return/exchange if needed
  9. Submit for international shipping once satisfied

Tips for First-Time Users

  • Start small: Place a test order with one or two items before committing to a large haul.
  • Read size charts: Asian sizing often runs smaller than Western sizing. Always check measurements.
  • Request QC photos: Never skip quality inspection. It is your safety net.
  • Join communities: Reddit and Discord communities share reviews, deals, and warnings about sellers.
  • Be patient: The entire process from order to delivery can take 3-6 weeks.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does shipping cost?

Shipping costs vary by weight, destination, and shipping method. Most agents provide a shipping calculator. Expect $20-50 for small hauls and $60-120 for larger packages.

What if my item is out of stock?

Your agent will notify you and offer alternatives. You can usually get a refund or switch to a similar item from the same seller or a different one.

Can I return items I do not like?

Most agents allow returns within a limited window (usually 7-14 days of arrival at their warehouse). However, return shipping to the seller is often at your expense.
