Fishgoo Haul Guide 2026: How to Plan, QC and Ship a Multi-Item Haul (Black Friday and Christmas Planner)
A Fishgoo haul is a group of items from different Chinese sellers that you buy through Fishgoo, collect at its China warehouse and then ship to you together. Each item gets 5 free QC photos, storage is free for 100 days so you can build the haul over weeks, and you choose from 2,000+ shipping routes. Fishgoo charges a 0% service fee: you pay for the items, delivery to the warehouse and international shipping. One haul can mix Taobao, Tmall, 1688 and Weidian with Dewu (POIZON), Pinduoduo and JD.com links.
Key takeaways
- A haul spreads one international shipping cost over several items. That is where most of the saving comes from.
- The 100-day free storage window is your haul deadline. Note the date your first item arrives.
- Check the 5 free QC photos for every item before you ship; problems are much harder to fix after the parcel leaves China.
- For Black Friday (27 November), Cyber Monday (30 November) or Christmas, work back from the date you need the parcel. Ask customer service for the delivery estimate for your route.
- Shipping prices, delivery times and returns depend on your order. Please contact Fishgoo customer service first to confirm.
How a Fishgoo haul works
| Stage | What happens | What you pay | Your decision |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1. Order | You paste each product link into Fishgoo and pay for the item. | Item price + delivery to the warehouse (0% service fee) | Size, colour, quantity |
| 2. Arrival | Each seller sends the item to Fishgoo’s China warehouse. Items arrive at different times. | Nothing extra | Wait; keep shopping |
| 3. QC | Each item is photographed at the warehouse: 5 free QC photos. | Nothing for the 5 free photos | Approve, or contact customer service about a problem |
| 4. Storage | Approved items wait in the warehouse, free for 100 days. | Nothing within 100 days | When to stop adding items |
| 5. Ship | You choose which items go together and pick a route from 2,000+. | International shipping | Route: price vs speed |
You pay in two stages: the items first, then shipping once the parcel is packed and weighed. Our step-by-step Fishgoo guide shows each screen.
The 100-day haul window
Free storage lasts 100 days, which sets the deadline for your haul. These examples show day 100 if you count from the date the first item arrives. Please contact Fishgoo customer service first to confirm how the 100 days are counted for your items.
| First item arrives | Day 100 falls on | Good for |
|---|---|---|
| 21 October 2026 | 29 January 2027 | 11.11 buys, collected through December |
| 1 November 2026 | 9 February 2027 | 11.11 and Black Friday buys in one parcel |
| 10 November 2026 | 18 February 2027 | 11.11 plus 12.12 buys, shipped after the holidays |
The window helps on cost, not on speed. If you need something by a certain date, ship it in an earlier, smaller parcel rather than waiting for the full haul.
Black Friday, Cyber Monday and Christmas planner
The real peak for overseas shoppers is late November to December. Delivery times depend on the route and change in peak season, so this planner uses your own numbers instead of guesses.
| Step | What to find out | Where |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | The date you need the parcel (e.g. 27 Nov Black Friday, 30 Nov Cyber Monday, a date before 25 Dec) | Your plan |
| 2 | The current delivery estimate for your route and country | Ask Fishgoo customer service |
| 3 | How long packing takes before the parcel leaves the warehouse | Ask Fishgoo customer service |
| 4 | Ship-by date = the date you need it − delivery estimate − packing time − a few spare days | Calculate |
| 5 | Last order date = ship-by date − the time sellers take to reach the warehouse − time for QC | Calculate; the slowest seller sets it |
Check the Chinese sale dates too: our Taobao sale calendar 2026 lists the 2026 sale dates.
What to put in one haul, and what to ship separately
| Item | Put it in the main haul? | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Clothes, accessories, small light items | Yes | They add little weight, so sharing one shipping cost helps most |
| Something you need by a fixed date | No, ship it earlier | Waiting for the rest of the haul can make it late |
| Heavy or bulky items (boots, coats, homeware) | Check first | They can push the parcel into a more expensive weight or size band |
| Batteries, liquids, powders, branded goods | Check first | Some routes do not accept them; ask customer service which routes do |
| Items still waiting for an answer on QC | Not yet | Sort out the problem before the parcel is packed |
QC checklist for the 5 free photos
- Clothing: size label, colour against the listing, print or embroidery, stitching, any stains.
- Shoes: both shoes side by side, size label, sole and toe shape, glue marks.
- Bags and accessories: hardware, zips, straps, inside lining.
- Electronics: model and plug type on the box or label, all parts included.

Haul budget worksheet
| Cost line | Who sets it | How to estimate |
