CNShopper link converter
The CNShopper link converter takes a link from any other agent (Kakobuy, Sugargoo, Superbuy and the rest) or a raw Taobao, Weidian or 1688 link, and gives you the CNShopper link for the same item. It runs in your browser; nothing is uploaded.
To order the converted listing you need a CNShopper account. It is free.
How the CNShopper link converter works
A CNShopper product link is goods/detail with the item number and the platform (weidian, taobao or 1688). The converter reads those two values from any agent's link and writes the CNShopper version.
Underneath every agent's link is the same marketplace listing. Strip the wrapper, rewrap it for CNShopper, and you are looking at the identical item, which is all an agent link converter has to do. CNShopper links look like cnshopper.com/goods/detail?keyword=…&platform=weidian.
A worked example
A worked example from this spreadsheet: the Arcteryx Alpha SV listing
on Weidian, weidian.com/item.html?itemID=7652619903, becomes cnshopper.com/goods/detail?keyword=7652619903&platform=weidian on CNShopper:
the same seller and the same item, with only the agent doing the buying changed.
Once it is converted, the QC finder can show you what other buyers received for it. Open the QC finder.

Short links and app-share links hide the item number behind a redirect. Open one in a browser first, then paste the full address from the address bar.
Link converter: questions
How do I convert a link to CNShopper?
Paste the product link into the box on this page. The converter unwraps it to the original Taobao, Weidian or 1688 listing and rebuilds that listing as a CNShopper link, ready to open.
Does the converter keep someone else's referral code?
No. Referral codes inside a link you paste are stripped out, and the converted link carries this site's own code instead (that is how the site is paid; your price is the same). The item is the same listing either way.
Is anything uploaded?
No. The link is read in your browser as you paste it; nothing is sent anywhere until you choose to open the result.
Why didn't my link convert?
Shortened or app-share links hide the item number behind a redirect. Open the link once in a browser and paste the full address from the address bar instead.
