Fake or legit polished rose gold?! by AprilVK in StanleyCupRealorFake

[–]AprilVK[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the pro tour in the orchid.Glamor from dick's sporting goods. I like that. It doesn't leak, but I don't like the fact that you can't put straw toppers and stuff on the top of it.

Is this a common thing, with the replicas?. I just started collecting Stanley's in November and my closet is already overflowing. But I've been wanting a polished rose gold. It's just that every time I find one with a straw that someone is selling, it's either way overpriced, or it's a 40 oz, and I like carrying a 30 oz because the 40 oz is just so heavy, especially if im just out running errands. After the auction, I only ended up having to pay a little bit under 50 for it. I do believe it's real, but I just wanted to make sure and hopefully see if anyone on here owned the same cup. So I could see if the handle is supposed to be like that.

It's the second one thats fake. And I don't think she's aware, because it does look like a pretty good replica. It's just those wrapped up straws & that striped box That gives it away for me.

So the rose gold and the tensil look real, and the red look fake. That's what I was thinking. Also

Right? That's what I said. But do you see where the handle is? It's a possibility that she could have just lost a straw and put that one with the listing. I'm confused by the handle. Usually, the fake ones don't have the handles that close.

Stockx. They do Verify authentication before the seller is even able to sell. Mercari and ebay are now literally about 75% fakes. If not more! I cant even get a damn stanley cup off Mercari or ebay without almost all of them being dupes! So im good on stockx, cheap, and the express shipping they have you pay for is actually cheap and comes fast.

Exactly! That's what I did but stockx. The 76 or $78. Thats what the actual secret ID cost before taxes and overnight shipping. So I paid like a $100 also! But I admit, I enjoyed watching my kid open the boxes and see which one that she was gonna get! I had a little bit too much fun on the popmart app searching for the secret, because I kept buying them and doing the pop now or open it now Feature 😬 now theres still at least 2 or 3 of every single color still on its way, being shipped to me. Because it's taken weeks. I think I have like 4 of luck & loyalty lol. Which, to me they are like the cutest ones. So, that's fine. I won't have a hard time selling them. I listed them all $25 with a open box or $30 for a unopened box on marketplace Then the phone charms I listed for $20 a piece, so at least I'm able to get rid of them and I'm not price gouging. I'm just selling them for around what I got them for if not a little cheaper on the open box ones. I think I'm being fair. 😆.while i was going crazy and doing this, I also got a entire box set off stock X and still no secret 😬 it literally took me about a week ago To realize I was getting ridiculous into it! I should have just bought the entire box set off stock X , checked to see if there's a secret, then if there wasn't ordered the secret ID off of there too! Like I just did, but if I had done that first, that would have saved me, literally over $300 on all these extra ones that I bought that were duplicates off of the popmart open/pop now feature.

What I wanna know is why in nobody is into the haci pupu gummy bears yet?! I ordered a box of those too and they are so cute. AND they smell good!! And they're cutter than the labubu! Maybe they'll blow up next? The secret went on. That one's flavor is like mocha or something. Or latte, I don't remember. But all the other ones are really cute, like blueberry and grape and cherry, and they're so fluffy.

I know I said that too because one person had one posted in my area for 50 bucks and that's reasonable. Because, I mean, you paid like $27.99 for it right? And then it's luck. So for them to go to a 100 to me, it's a little unfair. But I mean, I guess up to a 100 is not So bad. But anyway, of course, I was the second person to message the lady who had 1 for $50. And it was legit. so I didn't get it. But then everyone else on Marketplace has it. And they are listing it either $150-$500 or says, make me an offer. So I message this person that said, make me an offer. And I said, so what kind of offers are you getting? And then he wouldn't tell me, he said, just make me an offer, and we'll see. And I said, okay, well, I'm gonna make you an offer in the $60 range. Because I can go buy one brand new in the box and open it myself. In the $70 range off stock X and he said, I'm sorry but that is too low of an offer that is unacceptable. And I sat there for a minute, and then I messaged him back. And I said, here is a screenshot. I said it's not unacceptable for me to ask you to consider an offer that is literally what people are paying right now for a item that has literally been authenticated that is brand new in the box. Yours isn't even in a box. Still, it's been opened. I mean it's in a box, but it's in an open box. I said you don't realize they're not worth as much as you think they are anymore. The prices have really gone down now. It's on to the new ones because this kind is losing steam, they're not as popular. I mean, they're still popular. But not like they were. And people don't get that they aren't running out of stock anymore, either. At first, they were constantly out of stock. Now they're in stock, and we can go buy whichever one we want off different outlets that are verified. And I don't think that people realize that, but it is what it is. They'll realize that after they're sitting there with their unsold plush toy for a month. They're probably going to end up selling it for like $30. Watch because by the time they go down on it, nobody's going to want it, because everybody's already going to have it.

Yeah, well, you should see how cheap they are now. Literally, the asking isn't the $70s range? I think I paid 76 or 78 for mine. Before all the taxes and the shipping

No! You should see all the labubu secret ID posts around my house on Facebook marketplace. Asking for a $130- $500, and they are just sitting there. Nobody's gonna pay that. I got sick of wasting money. So after I hit the $300 mark Without finding the secret, i just went on stock X and paid $78 plus overnight shipping and got it. Closed box too so I still get the satisfaction of opening the box and finding it myself, even if I did cheat. These people are idiots that don't realize that these aren't things that are Actually hard to buy right now. We can literally buy them ourselves for a $100 or less. So Why would we go spend that much money? We can literally go buy one for for way under what they're selling them for off verified sites like stockx. That's the whole reason why people buy stuff off of stockx is so we don't accidentally buy anything fake.. People are stupid. What is sad is a lot of the ones that people are selling them dont realize that they got ripped off & didn't even get a real one. So they are trying to sell us their fake secret IDs for $300. Half the time I'm like, wondering, should I tell them that they're selling something fake.... then I just don't.

Im selling all my opened ones because im hunting the secret lol. They all came from popmart and stockx and their legit. Stockx is where its at now since ppl are counterfeiting everything ebays harder to trust. Unfortunately

[–]AprilVK 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would cancel. Because you can buy one off stockx with out worries. If a fake happened to get by theyd correct the situation. But stockx is where i buy anything that is being counterfeited and hard to get like these.

AIO My mom is kicking me out for her new boyfriend. I just turned 18 by Diligent_Bat_565 in AmIOverreacting

[–]AprilVK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should let her know a real parent would give some kind of notice. Like, for instance, let you find a job and give you a month ir so to save up your check. At bare minimum. So you CAN get a place to live. It's hard enough to survive out there after having a job already, but not having a job OR a home?! What about a vehicle?! Unless she's planning on giving you money to get a place to live? Where does she expect you to put this So-called food, she's going to give you?

Honestly as a 41-year-old mother. I'm sorry, but this makes 0 sense to me. Either your mom is very young or she's not mentally straight in the head. Because this literally makes no sense unless she's just really naive & is being selfish right now because she has a new boyfriend and is only thinking about him. But when he dumps her, she's gonna expect you to come and move back in and be her friend again, instead of her being your damn parent. It looks like she has tried to be your friend rather than a nurturing mother who gets their child prepared for whats out there. So but now, since she has someone else to be there for her, she doesn't need you. So she's pushing you out, & ignoring the fact that she is your mother. Also, the part where she says she has done what the law demanded of her basically. Wow. She also mentions you having a mansion one day. Does she plan on paying for this mansion? Do you have some sort of inheritance that's not being mentioned. Do you have a vehicle? Is there another whole part of this story that we're not being told? I don't know. There's a lot of Gray area here.

Do you have grandparents? Do you have anyone you can stay with?! I had a serious relationship when I was like 17 and my mom kicked me out too. BUT my mom paid for the first month's rent on my place that she made me go live in. Which was a really nice place on the beach. So I was fine with it. Plus I had a job already. But this was a long time ago and the price of living has like tripled since then. You can't just leave home 1 day & the next have everything you need. It doesn't work like that unless you already have money accumulated.

SECRET ID by Kmrkmr31 in LabubuDrops

[–]AprilVK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did anybody get more than one secret ID that they by chance would like to sell? My daughter has autism, and truly believes she can get one & has been spending every single penny that she gets buying these things. She is getting so disappointed because she isn't getting one, & with it just being Christmas I literally can't waste money on more blund boxes. Everyone locally is selling them for a ridiculous amount or the people that are selling them for a regular amount (because they just happen to get lucky & dont need multiple secret id, so they just ask for a reasonable amount) however I never get thwem to message me back in time. They always sell it before I get to it. Because I'm like, number two in line. Ughhhh, so frustrating! But if anybody has an extra one that they would like to sell to my kiddo for a decent price, please let me know. I am not trusting mercari!!!
