Can I search by specific shoe model?

Yes, use Ctrl+F in the spreadsheet and type the model name or colorway. The spreadsheet search covers Product Name, Category, and Batch columns.

What if an item is not in the spreadsheet?

You can discover new items through community Discord, Reddit, or reverse image search. Consider submitting the link and your QC photos to help verify it for the community.

How do I find the cheapest price for an item?

Search the item name in the spreadsheet, then sort by Price ascending. Compare the top results QC galleries to ensure the cheaper seller has the same batch quality.

How do I find new drops before they sell out?

Join active Discord communities, sort the spreadsheet by Date Added descending daily, and follow batch-specific announcement channels.

Can I find links for specific clothing sizes?

Yes, use the Sizing Notes column search in the spreadsheet. Filter for items where buyers have confirmed availability in your size.

What is the best way to browse the spreadsheet?

Start with category filters, sort by Rating descending, and open QC galleries for anything that interests you. This surfaces the best items efficiently.

How do I know if a newly found link is safe?

Check for at least 5 QC photos, a 4.0+ rating, active status, seller history, realistic pricing, and sizing notes. Missing any of these increases risk.

How to Find LitBuy Links: The Complete Guide

Finding the right LitBuy links is both an art and a science. With over 50,000 links in the database and new items added daily, knowing how to search, filter, and verify links efficiently saves hours of browsing and prevents costly mistakes. This guide teaches you every method—from basic spreadsheet navigation to advanced community-sourced discovery techniques.

Whether you are hunting for a specific Jordan 1 colorway, browsing for budget tees, or trying to discover hidden gems before they go viral, these strategies will transform how you use the LitBuy platform.

Method 1: Spreadsheet Direct Search

The most direct way to find LitBuy links is through the spreadsheet itself. Here is the optimal search workflow:

Open the spreadsheet and press Ctrl+F (Cmd+F on Mac) to open the find dialog.
Enter the exact model name or a partial match (e.g., "Chicago" finds all Chicago colorways).
Use the filter sidebar (Data → Filter views) to narrow by Category, Price, or Rating.
Sort by Rating descending to see the highest-quality matches first.
Click the QC Photos column to verify quality before copying the product link.
Check the Status column to confirm the link is Active before ordering.

Method 2: Category Browsing

Sometimes you do not know exactly what you want—you just want to browse the best items in a category. The spreadsheet supports this beautifully:

Category	Filter Value	Sort By	Result
Best Sneakers	Category = Shoes	Rating desc	Top-rated kicks
Budget Tees	Category = T-Shirts + Price < ¥150	Rating desc	Affordable quality tops
New Drops	All categories	Date Added desc	Latest verified links
Hidden Gems	Rating > 4.0 + QC Count < 20	Rating desc	Underrated items
Premium Only	Price > ¥500	Rating desc	High-end batches
Essentials Basics	Product Name contains Essentials	Price asc	Best-priced basics

Method 3: Community Discovery

The LitBuy community is constantly discovering new links before they reach the main spreadsheet. Here is how to tap into this real-time discovery network:

Discord Communities

Join active LitBuy Discord servers. Members share new links, QC photos, and restock alerts in real time. The fastest way to find new drops.

Reddit Threads

Subreddits like r/FashionReps and r/RepSneakers have weekly find threads where users post new LitBuy discoveries with QC evidence.

QC Submissions

Browse recent QC submissions on Imgur or Google Photos. Search by item name to find galleries from buyers who found new sellers.

Seller Research

Once you find a good seller through one link, check their store for other items. Good sellers often have multiple quality products.

Method 4: Batch Code Hunting

For sneaker buyers, batch codes are the key to finding the best quality. Here is how to hunt by batch:

Identify the best batch for your target model (LJR for Jordan 1, M for Dunks, PK for Yeezys).
Search the spreadsheet for the batch code in the Batch column.
Compare prices across sellers offering the same batch. Factory is the same—price varies by middleman markup.
Check QC galleries for that specific batch to confirm current quality consistency.
Follow batch-specific Discord channels that track factory improvements and new colorway releases.

Method 5: Reverse Image Search

Found a product photo you love but do not know the name? Reverse image search can help:

Save the image from Instagram, Pinterest, or a forum post.
Upload to Google Images, Yandex, or TinEye reverse search.
Look for Taobao or Weidian results in the search results.
Copy the Taobao/Weidian link and paste it into the spreadsheet search to see if it is already verified.
If not verified, consider being the first to submit QC photos and help the community.
