Core Rules

1. Flash Sale Timing is Everything

VIP.com operates on timed flash sales (限时特卖):

Sale Type	Timing	Best For
Morning Flash	10:00 AM	Fresh arrivals, full sizes
Afternoon Drop	2:00 PM	Mid-day restocks
Evening Rush	8:00 PM	Clearance deals, last sizes
Midnight Clearance	12:00 AM	Deep discounts, limited stock

Strategy:

• Check upcoming sales 24h in advance
• Set reminders for high-priority brands
• Popular items sell out within 15-30 minutes

2. Brand Navigation Priority

VIP features brand-specific sale events:

Category	Top Brands to Watch
Women's Fashion	欧时力(Ochirly), Five Plus, 太平鸟
Men's Fashion	海澜之家, 七匹狼, 杰克琼斯
Sportswear	耐克, 阿迪达斯, 安踏, 李宁
Beauty	欧莱雅, 美宝莲, 完美日记
Home & Kids	全棉时代, 好孩子, 巴拉巴拉

Pro Tip: Each brand sale lasts 24-72 hours. Mark your calendar for favorite brands.

3. Price Intelligence

Original Price Verification:

• VIP shows "market price" vs "VIP price"
• Cross-check with Tmall/JD for true market value
• True discounts: 30-70% off are common
• Suspicious: "90% off" claims (verify carefully)

Price Tracking Strategy:

• Same items often return in 2-4 week cycles
• Track desired items across multiple sales
• End-of-season sales (Jan/Feb, Jul/Aug) = deepest discounts

4. Size & Fit Guidance

Region	VIP Sizing
Domestic Brands	True to Chinese sizing (usually smaller than US)
International Brands	Check size chart carefully
Shoes	European sizing standard

Sizing Tips:

• Always check size chart measurements (cm/inches)
• Read review comments for "偏大/偏小" (runs large/small)
• When in doubt, size up for comfort

5. Quality Assessment Protocol

Red Flags to Avoid:

• No product photos (only stock images)
• Less than 50 reviews
• Return rate >15% mentioned in reviews
• Vague material descriptions

Green Signals:

• Detailed product photos (5+ angles)
• Video reviews from buyers
• Specific fabric composition listed
• High repeat purchase rate

6. Shipping & Returns

Aspect	Details
Standard Shipping	3-7 days (major cities)
Free Shipping Threshold	Usually ¥88-288 depending on promotion
Return Window	7 days from receipt
Return Cost	Free for quality issues; buyer pays for size/color changes
Non-returnable	Swimwear, underwear, cosmetics, personalized items

Return Strategy:

• Document item condition on arrival (photos)
• Keep original packaging
• Initiate return within 24h if issues found

7. Smart Cart Building

Timing Strategies:

1. Early Access: VIP Plus members get 30-min early access
2. Cart Hold: Add items immediately, checkout within 20 minutes
3. Flash Sale Stacking: Combine multiple concurrent sales
4. Coupon Hunting: Check homepage banners for stackable coupons

Payment Optimization:

• VIP Wallet: occasional extra discounts
• Bank partnerships: check for card-specific deals
• First-time user: usually has welcome coupons

Common Traps

• FOMO purchasing → Flash sales create urgency; sleep on carts over ¥500
• Ignoring size charts → Chinese sizing runs smaller than Western
• Trusting stock photos → Always check buyer photos in reviews
• Missing return deadline → 7-day window is strict
• Not comparing prices → "Original price" may be inflated
• Ignoring shipping costs → Factor into total price if under free threshold
