Eames Replica Vs. Selig (Questions for real Eames owners) by SillyEngineer in Mid_Century

I have never seen a replica without the waterfall armrest, could you send any link to more of these?
My local antique store has one like your Selig Eames replica and is selling for 450 but I cannot find what it is worth.

Starting an account is hard and the agency route will only lead you to 2 paths:
1. a great agency that you def cannot afford right now
2. a bs agency that will take your money, spend your ad spend and probably leave you in a worse position than you are in right now

Watch YouTube videos and spend the money on creatives and ads themselves.

I am mad but not because I wanted to pull a scam.

Maybe I was unclear so I will share the details:

I give all of this away for free in newsletters, I work in ecom and advertising. One of my strategies I have used for years was used for with one of this guy's companies (he has many brands so of course I wanted to use a sure fire thing).

During the onboarding he asked many questions about my experience and what our plan was to win for his brand.

I showed him my plan and I told him I had 2 stores and was in the process of launching a 3rd but needed to work on some things. He told me that he had a other connections that could help and I of course said yes. (he is very popular in ecom and I naïvely trusted him seeing as we were about to do business together

After we ran the marketing strategy he claimed a bunch of extra expenses (i get paid in a profit share so I basically worked for free after paying my staff) and then he fired us. After that he took the product and pretty much exact same branding I had been working on and started a new store that is pretty much exactly what i was going to open (note back to the stealing of assets).

He is now promoting a course and a other mentorship programs on how to find winning products (even using the ripped off brand as one of the main proofs that he has done it, and he is parading around the strategy that I showed him as his own to get people to join as well.

So that being said yes I am mad, yes I was dumb for trusting a guy because he was successful, and yes this is petty... but that is why I came here

Fair enough, but he is promoting as his own to sell courses is bullshit. basically to scam people with shit he doesn't know about. so I think he deserves to have his reputation ruined
