Use Qwen to compare Taobao listings and place an order
A reviewer had Qwen compare Taobao gamepad listings, choose a cheaper option, and complete checkout after approval.
- What they did
- They updated Taobao and Qwen to app 6.9.1 or later, then opened Qwen’s shopping helper. After sharing two gamepad links, they asked it to compare them, look for a lower-priced listing, and then place the order. The agent pointed to a store membership deal for a coupon, then paused for confirmation before paying.
- How it went
- The purchase and payment went through without friction. However, when they asked for green, the assistant still defaulted to white, even though the request and context both said green. It also said it had found the lowest price, but they later found a cheaper listing at the official flagship store.
- Tips
- Check the exact variant on the final confirmation screen before approving payment. If price matters, verify the listing yourself as well, since the agent can miss a cheaper option.
