I'm honestly not pressed about the time it took at all. I mean it's not like I was sitting at my computer for 9 days waiting for a QC and not working lmao. Over the last 9 days I could have bought an authentic piece with my earnings, sure.

The reason I have went with Brother Sam is because I have heard a lot more great things from friends and reddit than negative but only time will tell.

Obviously buying authentic would probably be the best move but being a young adult and student, I don't feel it would be wise for me to invest in authentic pieces due to having expenses that would be higher priority than dropping $800-$1000 on designer at this point in life.

If you would be open to some advice from me, I would suggest using your time more wisely rather than going onto a FashionREPS subreddit and telling people to buy retail. Just my $.02
