Why Choose Joyabuy for 1688 Purchases?

Joyabuy specializes in:

• Overcoming 1688's Chinese-only interface
• Consolidating multiple seller shipments
• Quality inspection before international forwarding
• Offering competitive service fees (typically 5-8%)

"Unlike individual sellers, Joyabuy verifies jersey authenticity by comparing stitching patterns and NHL holograms against known counterfeits," explains Marta Kovalska, a Czech hockey blogger who regularly imports jerseys.
