How to Build Your Own Acbuy Finds Sheet in 2026

The main Acbuy spreadsheet is a goldmine, but building your own personal finds sheet gives you complete control. Organize products by haul, track your spending, and create shareable wishlists for friends. Here is how to do it in 2026.

Choose Your Platform

Google Sheets is the best free option. It is shareable, works offline, and integrates with mobile apps. Microsoft Excel Online and Notion are alternatives if you prefer those ecosystems.

Set Up Your Columns

Create a spreadsheet with these essential columns:

Item Name: Product name with brand reference
Category: Shoes, Hoodies, Tees, Accessories, etc.
Seller: Taobao or Weidian store name
Link: Direct product URL
Price (CNY): Product price in yuan
Price (USD): Converted price for budgeting
Weight (g): Estimated shipping weight
QC Photos: Link to warehouse photos
Status: Wishlist / Ordered / Warehouse / Shipped / Received
Notes: Sizing tips, color notes, etc.

Import from the Main Spreadsheet

Copy items you like from the Acbuy spreadsheet directly into your personal sheet. Use formulas to auto-calculate totals:

Total product cost: =SUM(E2:E50)
Estimated shipping: =SUM(G2:G50)*0.001*12 (approx ¥12 per kg)
Grand total: Product cost + shipping estimate + service fee

Track Your Haul Progress

Use the Status column to track every item through the pipeline:

Wishlist: Items you are considering
Ordered: Submitted to Acbuy agent
Warehouse: Arrived, awaiting QC
QC Review: Checking photos
GL / RL: Approved or rejected
Shipped: On the way to you
Received: In hand

Add QC Photo Links

When QC photos arrive, paste the link in your sheet. Create a separate tab called "QC Photos" with thumbnails if you want a visual overview. This helps you compare multiple items side by side.

Color-Code Your Budget

Use conditional formatting in Google Sheets:

Green: Under $50 — safe buy
Yellow: $50-$100 — consider carefully
Red: Over $100 — high-commitment purchase

Share with Friends

Set your sheet to "Anyone with link can view" and share your finds with the community. Popular community members even get early access to new spreadsheet updates.

Sync with Acbuy Orders

Export your Acbuy order history as CSV and import it into your sheet to automatically update statuses and actual prices. This keeps your budget tracking accurate.

Advanced Tips

Create a "Comparison" tab for similar items (e.g., 3 Jordan 1 sellers)
Add a "Fit Review" column after receiving items
Use Data Validation for dropdown lists on Status and Category columns
Set up email alerts when spreadsheet cells change
