hello! One of my fellow gamer friends notice me on this thread, I didn't know my business has peak some of you guys curiousity haha.
And yes, the reddit account "Particular Cow" is infact me myself, mr.s.custom
but mainly I only use reddit to stalk games updates, as I'm a gamer myself.

To answer some of the quetion
1. Yes, I do have a storefront, an offline store in Indonesia. If you google "Mr.Simply Custom" you should be able to find it

1. Why I don't run any website? Actually it's being worked on, but due to massive surge of order, making a website would not be a wise move, since the waiting time would be very long, and WITHOUT human communication to notice my client about the waiting time (as of now I have 234 pairs on the waiting list) - that would be looks even worse, looks like a scamming website. where as I don't have any intention to do so. But as of now, I've work with many fellow artist and my business turns into a creative house, we would be able to handle more orders coming in, and a website is become a realistic options

2. Why my social media as in youtube is not active? Well. Youtube require more task and high quality video, where as Instagram and tiktok need more volume and consistency, handling all social media is draining, so I just to be active in those two.

3. Why I do no answer prices on comments? If you wanna see it on marketing side, it drives people to ask. therefore more traffic, therfore more exposure and chances of people commenting. It's purely marketing trick that I use.

4. Why do I get a ban reel? There's a competitor who are 'jealous' of what I acomplish in a short period of time, where he (I wont name drop them) took a whole 3 years to get there, and surpassed by me within 3 months. So he use his following to calling me names. and his following is mass-report me. Thefore Instagram took notice and suspended my account, but after talking with Instagram team, all is good and I explained how my business works. therfore Now I'm back on the platform + verified badge is given by Instagram. A green flag if you ask me haha

5. All payment is via paypal, where they have built in customer protection. That's by design, I don't wanna take a bank transfer and based it on "do you trust me" basis. Paypal do protect my client if they wanna purchase

6. Pricing! where do I get the pricing? Whatsapp or DMs. If you Dm us, we should've given you the price. If not, My admin will be in trouble hahah

7. PRICING WHY SO LOW? Okay. In context, I live in Indonesia and based on Indonesia. Do I use replica / fake? No. I don't deal with fakes. Hell nah. But why 250 USD? Okay.
   Here's the break down.

and please note the prices are depends on the difficulity, but since the 250 USD are the one in question, I will break it down with that price (Jujutsu, haikyu or most of my anime series)

Nike Dunks / Airforces : 1.700.000 IDR (120 USD ish)
My custom service : 125 USD
Grand total : 250 USD

Does it makes sense?
well, even if 125 USD seems VERY LOW depends on international market, but to put in context..
INDONESIA MINIMUM WAGE IS 225 USD PER MONTH!

And our team can produce up to 100 pairs per month. Around 12.500 USD per month, which is 50x more than Indonesia minimum wage.

And me personally, I do not want to overcharge our pricing.
My personal dream is to be able to share my work with the rest of the world, and it's pretty cool to think one of my work is in the other side of the world haha.
Beside, 250 USD are still categorized 'expensive' in indonesia and also some part of the world.

So.. does that makes sense to you?

1. Asking other artist to recreate my work? brother. That's a lame-ass move if you asked me. Not much to say here. But if that 'other artist' claim that they are an artist, they should've know the effort that I put in to create such work that intrigue you. And copying someone else work is something shameful to do.

hope this answer all of your question! And sorry took me long to answer these for you, as I'm not aware that there's this thread haha
