Their consolidation service
Pro Tip: Shipping costs average ¥220/kg to the US via their Yanwen-Aramex hybrid line (12-18 days). Economy海运 (sea freight) takes 45+ days but cuts costs by 60%.
Compared to StockX/GOAT, this route offers three key advantages for NB collectors:
Weidian sellers often stock Asia-limited colorways like the "Tone-Tea" pack
New releases appear 1-2 weeks earlier than global drops
Consumer feedback indicates approximately 87% satisfaction rate
While agency fees (typically 10% of item value plus ¥80/cubed kg shipping), this method remains cost-effective for premium silhouettes. Always cross-reference production dates on Finds.Cheap
Note: Some listings may show "New Balance 990鞋" with dubious ¥299 pricing - these are invariably budget replicas. Authentic pairs rarely fall below ¥650 even during 618/11.11 sales.
