OrientDig Warehouse Storage Guide
OrientDig help center states a 90-day free storage period for shopping-agent goods, counted from the "stored in warehouse" order status. Spreadsheet buyers often use that window to consolidate finds -- but the return clock is much shorter, so storage time is not the same as decision time.
How the 90-day free window works
Free storage starts when status becomes stored in warehouse. If 90 days pass without submitting a delivery order or giving feedback, goods may be treated as abandoned and destroyed. Track each product ID if you are waiting on multiple spreadsheet finds that arrive on different days.
Paid extensions
OrientDig value-added services list "Extend Storage Period" at $1.50 per product ID per month, applicable to items stored between 60 and 90 days, with a stated maximum of six months total storage. Extend early enough that you do not miss the free-window end while still deciding.
Returns clock vs storage clock
Free storage lasts up to 90 days, but the no-reason return/exchange window is much shorter -- five days / 120 hours after "stored in warehouse" where that policy applies. Do not wait weeks to review QC just because storage is still free. QC and return decisions belong at the front of the storage period.
Consolidation timing for spreadsheet hauls
Use free storage to batch items, then re-check shipping quotes after final packing. Volumetric weight can erase the savings of waiting for one more hoodie. Set a personal cut-off date per haul so goods do not linger into paid extension or abandonment risk.
What to do as day 60 approaches
Review remaining items, decide which will ship together, and either submit a parcel, request an extension for IDs you still need, or handle returns while still eligible. Spreadsheet impulse buys are the items most often left forgotten until storage pressure appears.
Storage does not pause shipping risk
Extra warehouse days do not change customs rules, line restrictions, or volumetric math. They only delay Stage 2. If freight or destination risk already looks bad on a rehearsal pack, decide sooner rather than paying to store a haul you may not want to ship.
Quick takeaway
Ninety days is for consolidating -- not for postponing QC. Review photos in the first days, ship or extend before the free window ends, and do not confuse storage time with the short return window.
