CNGoodsBuy Spreadsheet Categories
A category is more than a filter. It tells you which photographs, measurements, specifications, and weight questions should shape the comparison.

Why it works
Categories create a fair comparison.
A low price can look attractive in isolation. Beside two similar jackets, the missing lining photo or measurement becomes obvious. The same principle applies to bags, shoes, watches, and small accessories.
Category-first browsing also keeps search language neutral. Identify the product type, then inspect the external listing details yourself.

All categoriesChoosing well
Which category should you start with?
You know the item
Open its category and compare three to five rows with the same use, option, and evidence level.
You know only the use
Start with the broad parent—such as bags or accessories—then narrow once the product type becomes obvious.
The row feels misplaced
Do not force it into the comparison. A category mismatch is a useful reason to remove the row.
Avoidable mistakes
Do not let the category label do all the work.
- Comparing different product types because the prices look similar.
- Assuming every image shows the selected option.
- Using a broad accessories label when exact dimensions matter.
- Judging heavy outerwear and a light shirt with the same weight assumption.
- Saving a row whose source page no longer matches its category.

A ten-second category check
Can you name the product type, the detail you need to inspect, the option you are comparing, and the weight question that might change the decision? If not, keep reading before opening more tabs.
