When searching Taobao through Joyabuy, employ precise keyword combinations. Use terms like "Borsalino authentic," "意大利Borsalino," or "波萨利诺" (Chinese transliteration) paired with specific style names ("Fedora," "Panama," or "Trilby"). The product spreadsheet helps identify exact model numbers and proper Chinese terminology used by reputable sellers.

Step 4: Seller Evaluation Tactics

Carefully assess potential sellers using multiple criteria: customer review analysis (particularly recent feedback), store rating percentages, and seller tenure on Taobao. Cross-reference seller inventory with the spreadsheet data to verify consistency in product descriptions and pricing patterns. Established sellers with consistent positive feedback spanning several years typically offer more reliable authenticity.

Step 5: Order Placement Process

Once you've selected your preferred Borsalino item, proceed through Joyabuy's ordering system. Input the Taobao product URL into Joyabuy's search bar, specify size/color preferences, and review the automatically calculated international shipping costs. Joyabuy provides multiple consolidation options if purchasing multiple items from different Taobao sellers.

Step 6: Quality Verification Service

Joyabuy offers a valuable quality inspection service where their team examines products at their domestic warehouse before international shipment. This crucial step includes verification of materials, craftsmanship details, and comparison against the specifications listed in the product spreadsheet. This additional verification layer significantly reduces the risk of receiving counterfeit products.

Step 7: Shipping and Customs Considerations

Select your preferred international shipping method based on budget and delivery timeframe requirements. Joyabuy provides various options including express services (DHL, FedEx) and more economical alternatives. For luxury items like Borsalino hats, consider opting for insurance coverage and signature confirmation. Be aware of potential import duties applicable in your destination country.

Step 8: Receipt and Final Inspection

Upon delivery, conduct immediate inspection of your Borsalino purchase. Verify stitching quality, material authenticity, labeling details, and compare against reference images from both the original Taobao listing and the product spreadsheet. The distinctive felt quality, precise ribbon workmanship, and engraved interior branding are key authentication markers for genuine Borsalino products.
