Extra QC and inspection levels
Standard QC photos cover the basics; extra or additional inspection digs deeper. Here’s when paying for more inspection is genuinely worth it.
Every order gets a quality check, but not every order needs the same depth. Knowing the difference between standard and extra inspection helps you spend where it matters.
Standard QC
The default: photos that let you verify colour, the size tag, stitching, print alignment and obvious defects. For most clothing and simple goods, that’s enough — see how to read QC photos.
What extra inspection adds
- More photos and angles, including close-ups of problem areas.
- Measurements checked against a size chart.
- A basic function test for electronics, where offered.
When it’s worth it
Consider extra inspection for expensive items, anything where fit is critical, or electronics you can’t easily return. For a low-cost, low-risk item, standard QC usually does the job.

Common questions
Standard QC is a set of photos so you can check colour, the size tag, stitching, prints and obvious defects before you approve shipping.
Extra or additional inspection can mean more photos and angles, measurements, or a basic function test for electronics — deeper than the standard set.
For high-value, sizing-critical or electronic items, often yes. For a cheap, simple item, the standard photos are usually enough.
