JoyaBuy Spreadsheet: A Rename, Not a Shutdown, and What That Means for Your Old Links

Checked · the PandaBuy Alternatives desk

Short answer

If your old sheet has joyabuy.com links that no longer open a product, JoyaBuy didn't go the way of PandaBuy. It renamed itself JoyaGoo on March 31, 2025, and rep.tools treats the two names as the same business. Under the new name it lists 0% commission and 90 days of free storage and holds 4.6/5 from 2,921 Trustpilot reviews, one of the strongest records among open agents. Each old JoyaBuy row, like each long PandaBuy row, wraps a Weidian or Taobao item ID, so it can be converted and bought at JoyaGoo or anywhere else.

16 finds to replace dead JoyaBuy rows

Weidian listings of the kind old JoyaBuy and PandaBuy sheets were built on, each checked against its photo. Tiles open repbuysheet.com. We cap the grid at 16 finds so it loads quickly; behind it sit 10,000+ products.

Sponsored links. Photo, name and button all open one listing on repbuysheet.com, where the seller's full photo set, the size options and the source shop link live. Dollar and yuan prices are copied from that catalog on the check date and move with the exchange rate.

Renamed, not closed: JoyaBuy vs PandaBuy

Broken links in a sheet can mean two very different things, and the difference decides what you do next:

PandaBuy's ending beside JoyaBuy's
PandaBuy (until 2024)JoyaBuy
What happenedRaided April 11, 2024; closedRenamed JoyaGoo, March 31, 2025
Customer balancesLargely lostSame business continued (rep.tools)
Old linksPandaBuy pages deadjoyabuy.com pages dead
Items inside the linksStill on Weidian / TaobaoStill on Weidian / Taobao
The businessGoneTrading as JoyaGoo

JoyaGoo rename date from rep.tools' 2026 ranking; PandaBuy from Wikipedia, Managing IP and CNBuyPilot.

A rename leaves a trail: an announcement, a redirect for a while, and the same people behind it. A raid leaves nothing. That's why a rename usually costs customers nothing more than updating their links, while PandaBuy's raid cost many of them their balances. For a sheet, though, the fix is identical: pull the marketplace item ID out of the old link and use it wherever you shop now.

Verdict: JoyaBuy is alive under another name. Old links need the same conversion as PandaBuy's, nothing more.

Converting old JoyaBuy rows

Converting a JoyaBuy column takes a minute:

  1. Copy the column of joyabuy.com links.
  2. Paste it into the link converter, which reads the platform and item ID from agent links and returns clean Weidian, Taobao or 1688 addresses in order.
  3. Paste the results next to the old column and keep both.
  4. Open a few rows to weed out deleted listings, then paste the working links into JoyaGoo or another open agent.

Sheets that mix PandaBuy and JoyaBuy rows, common in late-2023 lists, go through the converter in one pass. Rows that won't convert are usually short links; those need the original sheet owner's long version.

Verdict: One paste converts a mixed PandaBuy and JoyaBuy column. Keep the clean links as your master copy.

How JoyaGoo's terms compare with PandaBuy's

As JoyaGoo, the business lists terms very close to PandaBuy's headline offer:

PandaBuy's terms beside JoyaGoo's
PandaBuy (until 2024)JoyaGoo (ex-JoyaBuy)
Commission0% service fee0% (official)
Free storage90 days90 days
Trustpilot—4.6/5 · 2,921 reviews
Reviews in the past year—111

JoyaGoo terms per rep.tools (Sept 22, 2026); Trustpilot read Sept 2026.

The review record is strong but mostly older: 111 of the 2,921 reviews arrived in the past twelve months. That's a reason to glance at the most recent ones before a big order, not a reason to avoid it. On matching PandaBuy's model, JoyaGoo is one of the closest open options.

Verdict: PandaBuy's zero-commission model with a much better track record. Check recent reviews before a large haul.

JoyaBuy, JoyaGoo and the naming mess

One last source of confusion: search data shows people looking for JoyaBuy, JoyaGoo and the old PandaBuy name in the same breath, and some sites still publish 'JoyaBuy spreadsheets' with links that no longer open. A few practical rules:

  • If a link starts with joyabuy.com, it's from before March 2025; convert it.
  • If a site claims JoyaBuy and JoyaGoo are different companies competing with each other, it's out of date.
  • Type the agent's current address yourself rather than following a renamed-agent link from a sheet, the same precaution we suggest for PandaBuy lookalikes.

For a full picture of which agents are open, renamed or closed, the status board lists JoyaGoo as 'renamed' alongside the others.

Verdict: Treat joyabuy.com links as historical. The business, and the items, are still there.

Where a zero-commission agent makes its money

JoyaGoo, like PandaBuy before it, charges no commission. A fair question for any former PandaBuy user is where a zero-commission agent makes its money, because every agent has costs. Usually it's some mix of:

  • The exchange rate: converting yuan at a rate above the interbank rate.
  • Shipping: a margin on international freight.
  • Extras: paid photos, special packing, storage beyond the free period, insurance.
  • Payment fees passed on at checkout.

None of that is hidden or improper; it's how the model works, and it was how PandaBuy's zero fee worked too. It means the right comparison between agents is the total for the same basket: items converted at the agent's rate, plus freight for the actual parcel, plus any extras you choose. The haul template has columns for each, and two quotes for the same parcel usually tell you more than any fee table.

Verdict: Zero commission isn't zero cost. Compare total baskets, not headline fees.

JoyaBuy questions

Did JoyaBuy shut down like PandaBuy?

No. JoyaBuy didn't close; it renamed itself JoyaGoo on March 31, 2025 and carried on trading, and rep.tools treats the two names as one business. PandaBuy's ending was different: a police raid on April 11, 2024, with customer balances largely lost. For your sheet the fix is the same either way, converting each link to its marketplace item. Think of JoyaBuy as alive under a new name.

Why don't my JoyaBuy links work?

The joyabuy.com product pages stopped working when the business became JoyaGoo on March 31, 2025. The link itself is dead, but the Weidian or Taobao item ID wrapped inside it still points to a real listing unless the seller has removed it. Pull that ID out and the row works again at JoyaGoo or any other open agent. Convert the column rather than deleting the rows.

How do I convert JoyaBuy links?

Copy the whole joyabuy.com column and paste it into the link converter. It reads the platform and item ID from each row and returns clean Weidian, Taobao or 1688 addresses in the same order, and a column mixing PandaBuy and JoyaBuy rows goes through in a single pass. Short links usually won't convert. Paste the results beside the old column and keep both.

Is JoyaGoo the same company as JoyaBuy?

Yes. rep.tools lists JoyaBuy and JoyaGoo as one business, and JoyaGoo has been the trading name since March 31, 2025. Sites describing them as rival companies are out of date. Type the current JoyaGoo address yourself rather than following an old link from a sheet, the same habit that guards against PandaBuy lookalikes. Treat any joyabuy.com link as a historical record only.

Is JoyaGoo a good PandaBuy alternative?

Its terms are among the closest to PandaBuy's: 0% commission and 90 days of free storage. Unlike PandaBuy, it also holds 4.6/5 from 2,921 Trustpilot reviews, though only 111 of those came in the past twelve months, so the record is strong but mostly older. Read the latest few reviews before a large haul, then count it among the best open options.

Does JoyaGoo charge a service fee?

JoyaGoo lists 0% commission, matching PandaBuy's old headline. Zero commission isn't zero cost, though: a no-fee agent usually earns through the exchange rate, a margin on freight, paid extras such as additional photos or insurance, and payment fees passed on at checkout. The fair comparison is the total for the same basket at two agents. Get two quotes before deciding.
