What does QC mean?
QC means quality control. In this context it usually refers to warehouse photos, close-up images, seller notes, and buyer checks used before approving an item for shipping.

QC photos FAQ
QC photos can reveal visible construction issues, but only when the angles and detail are good enough. Use this guide to separate what a photo supports from what still needs another image or measurement.
Worked example
Example: checking a pair of shoes
A single side profile can show panel alignment and obvious sole separation. It cannot confirm that both shoes match, so request paired top, heel, outsole, tongue-label, and insole-measurement photos before approval.

What should I check in QC photos?
Look at shape, color, stitching, logo placement, tags, hardware, fabric texture, sizing labels, and any visible flaws. Compare several images instead of trusting one angle.
03
Why can the product color look different?
Warehouse lighting, camera exposure, shadows, and screen settings can all change how a color looks. Ask for clearer photos when color accuracy is important.
04
Can QC photos guarantee product quality?
No. QC photos reduce risk, but they cannot guarantee materials, comfort, durability, or exact sizing. Treat them as a decision tool, not a warranty.
