Breaking Down the QC Note Categories

1. Color Assessment

Notes may comment on color difference"Color is slightly darker than pictured""Color saturation is lower"

2. Fit & Sizing Information

Agents often provide actual measurements. A note might say: "Tagged size L, but measures like a Medium". Compare the provided measurements (chest width, length, etc.) against your own clothing or a size chart.

3. Material & Craftsmanship Quality

This section is crucial. Notes may indicate material feel, like "Material is thin", "Stitching is uneven near the pocket", or "Logo embroidery is clean and precise". Look for comments on loose threads, misalignments, or material that looks cheap.

4. Flaws & Imperfections

The most critical part. Agents explicitly note any defects:
"Small stain on the inner lining."
"Scratch on the left shoe buckle."
"Button is loose."
Assess if the flaw is acceptable or if you need to request an exchange/return.
