HELP / FAQ

Clear answers about QC research.

What photos can show, what they cannot prove, and how FindQCs connects research with product listings.

What does QC mean?+

QC means quality control. In this context it usually refers to warehouse photographs that show the received item before the next shipping step.

Does FindQCs authenticate products?+

No. FindQCs helps with visual research and navigation. Photos cannot certify authenticity, material composition or long-term performance.

Why does search open another catalogue?+

FindQCs is an independent research layer rather than a seller. Search and category actions open the connected product catalogue so you can view the current listing.

Can a product image replace QC photos?+

No. A listing image shows what is advertised; a QC photo is intended to show the received item. Compare them, but do not treat them as the same evidence.

What if a photo is unclear?+

Ask for a specific additional angle or measurement when the uncertainty would change your decision.

What should be checked on clothing?+

Confirm size and color, then compare measurements, shape, seams, hems, print or embroidery placement, labels and visible damage.

What should be checked on shoes?+

Compare both shoes, toe and heel shape, panel alignment, stitching, sole finish, size labels and visible marks.

Are user comments always reliable?+

Treat comments as context, not proof. Look for specific observations, photos and consistent reports rather than broad claims.

A practical evidence rule

Use a photo to answer a visible question: whether the selected color arrived, whether two sides align, whether a measurement is within tolerance or whether damage appears in the supplied angles. Do not use it to answer an invisible question such as material composition, internal construction or future durability. If the evidence is incomplete, state what is missing and request the exact photo or measurement that would change the decision.

Keep seller descriptions, warehouse photographs and customer reviews in separate columns. Agreement between them can raise confidence, while a conflict shows what needs checking. Specific details, dates and exact variations are more useful than broad approval or rejection.
