How the VigorBuy Spreadsheet Works for You
Step 1: Initial Capture
Once you make a purchase using our address, an entry is created in your personal spreadsheet. It logs the initial product cost, estimated weight, and any known seller fees.
Step 2: Live Warehouse Updates
When your item arrives at our warehouse, we update the spreadsheet with the actual photographed weight and dimensions. This is your first checkpoint to compare against the initial estimate.
Step 3: Pre-Shipment Approval
Before we ship, you see the final, fully itemized cost breakdown in the spreadsheet based on actual data. No surprises—just confirmation.
Step 4: Historical Record
Your spreadsheet becomes a valuable log for future purchases, helping you make smarter buying decisions based on accurate past shipping data.
