Your old Pandabuy, Weidian and Taobao links all still work. Here's how to convert them to any active agent in seconds.
Pandabuy's shutdown doesn't mean your product links are dead. Every Weidian and Taobao URL you had saved still points to an active seller. You just need a way to generate a purchase link for your new agent β and that takes about 10 seconds with the right tool.

ACBuy, USFans, Superbuy, LoveGoBuy and 16+ other active agents all supported by the converter.
Converting Pandabuy links to other platform formats extracts the underlying Taobao, Weidian, or 1688 product URL embedded in the Pandabuy link format. This underlying URL is platform-neutral and can be submitted to any purchasing agent that supports the relevant source platform.
The conversion process is useful when a product link is shared in Pandabuy format but you prefer to purchase through a different agent. It is also useful for verifying that two differently-formatted links are pointing to the same product β comparing the extracted underlying URLs confirms whether links are equivalent.
Link conversion has no effect on the product itself, only on which agent platform is used to purchase it. The seller, price, and item details are all determined by the underlying product URL and are independent of which agent format the link is originally shared in.
Link conversion is the easy part. The actual migration involves choosing an agent you're comfortable with and learning their specific workflow β which takes a couple of orders but isn't hard once you've done it. Our full migration guide walks through this step by step, including the parts that are slightly different between agents (like how storage consolidation works, or how to set declared value for shipping).
If you haven't decided on an agent yet, the agent comparison table breaks down fees, QC photo counts, storage periods, and shipping line availability for every major platform. For most buyers converting from Pandabuy, CNFans is the closest like-for-like replacement. If you're primarily buying luxury bags or watches, Superbuy is worth considering for the QC photo quality despite the higher fee. EU buyers should check ACBuy before committing anywhere β their EU shipping rates can offset their fee premium entirely.
One thing that trips people up during migration: some old Pandabuy spreadsheet links were wrapped in Pandabuy's own URL format, not raw Weidian links. If a link doesn't convert cleanly, it usually means you need to go one layer deeper β find the original Weidian shop ID in the URL string and rebuild the link manually. Most converter tools handle this automatically, but it's worth knowing in case you hit an error. The community on r/FashionReps and r/RepSneakers is helpful for any edge cases the tool doesn't handle.
For buyers who were mainly using Pandabuy for spreadsheet-sourced finds: all those spreadsheets are still live and still updated. The sellers haven't moved. Check the spreadsheet search guide for where to find current community-maintained spreadsheets indexed by brand and category β there's more coverage now than there was during Pandabuy's peak because the community has continued building out the sources.
