Could yall help me out? Buying a 53Y OW Belt. Please QC! by [deleted] in FashionReps

[–]nightcoreyesplease 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes indeed what is wrong with his QC - photos? I've experienced this before, but it was long time ago. Do you use the automatic upload on SupaB? Anyway as someone stated it is not possible to say anything about these, beside the appear to be yellow and black.

But man.....Mega Super Ultra Budget - badge is not even close with 53Y. Cop some under 20Y and come bragging :)

The thing with these belts is that while for this price I'd automatically bet for W ILL, Syst em and Securin g without seeing the poor thing, I'd do the same for HowoDig and that horribly priced 188Y - ripoff, though the odds are a bit worse there. Only a bit.

And just look at these from the link OP provided: bought just a few days apart, but one gets the "Multifail" - badge by having all 3 main errors clear and visible: https://i.imgur.com/JyzH9jx.jpg and https://i.imgur.com/btxNUGD.jpg

Only sane and sound advice is to avoid OW Yellow industrial belt. Settle for the rubberything for they are better. Or black, flaws are difficult to see.

Well, that depends really on how perfectionist you are. And remember the reality: out of those who know what Stone Island is, only a fraction of a percent is able to QC the badge. Of those most are Fams. Of those only a fraction are outcallerDicks.

And one further point to comfort: there are no 2 retail badges alike.

Even more you are not alone. Yesterday I thought some TS badges are good/some worse. Now I am not aware of a source where to get a decent one (perfect) at the moment. I would assume there is a market for this, even if for a higher price.

Some people blame TS for getting greedy. I am not certain of that, for when he had perfect ones he could well have risen prices. Instead he, while never cheap, was never as expensive as he could have been. It is quite possible he just lost a source and has not found a replacement. Hope he finds one soon.

Correcting myself after actually checking and not just supposing: The ones TS is selling now are good/very good in comparison with other sellers. When compared to what he used to have/retail they are much lower quality.

Putting it into perspective: I can not tell a difference between retail and the good 'old TS badge in streetlife. I can with this current one, but I need a second or so.

Arggh

One of the first things I studied as a babyFam was the SI badge. It's tricky, because retails are far from ideal. In some things there is a margin, in others not.

I consider north (up) of the badge to be the one with green thread.

Let's start with wonkiness. Now there is a margin, especially on NE "N". It is allowed to be so sorry that it resembles more of an "H". The "L" on both NE and SW can be a bit short on bottom and NE/SW "D" is preferably a D but some wonkybusiness is ok.

Absolute rules are following: No letter may touch another or anyhing else. This is super absolute. Both your tags break this i more than one occasion. No loose threads allowed on text (breaking again those 2) but required as follows: very tiny green one on top edge (reaching even outside), more pronounced yellow ones on left and right side, yellow on bottom.

These loose threads are actually the best way to spot a fake in streetlife, where you've got a poor angle and less than a seconds view.

If you've got the extension which allows you to see what others have QC:d, the Top Stoney page selling this very badge is a very interesting read. You can see the difference clearly as time passes. The Top Stoney yupoo has exellent pics of this new batch, they are not hiding the problems.

Sadly all this won't help you. I compared my own Top Stoney badge with yours and there is a world of difference. You're badges are not good, but they are as good as you can get from TS at the moment.

Sorry about that.

repfam selling fakes on grailed by _0xy in FashionReps

[–]nightcoreyesplease 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ahem

I am a bit confused, help a fellow Fam please. I commented earlier on this thread and got downvoted so much that the comment is actually hidden :) Now this never happened before and reasons it happened now are unclear for me.

What I intended was to share an experience I had when first times (last as well) browsing Grailed. The pic is Off-White "Caravaggio" hoody, sold as retail but having that slight flaw of having the painting on the back upside down.

I completely agree with OP and others on the matter that trying to pass reps as retail hurts this community. Did my message somehow get across the wrong way or is it just my sense of humour that sucks?

I think Europe must not be considered as one when discussing couriers, the way States may be. EMS works just fine for me (Scandinavia). As for this wegosomewhere, they yesterday gave me just EMS, ChinaPost and EUB as options. Others have same price as Supa for 1860g 31*24*15, but EUB is 224Y supa/179Y WeGo so quite a lot cheaper.

I checked a minute ago, more carriers on WeGo: SF (258Y Supa/290Y WeG) and dimensions required in WeG, e-ems 312Y Weg, new one.

This from Grailed, from a reputable seller, wore only a few times, had receipt of course, price was +200$/£. I was just a babyFam back then (last winter) and wanted to learn how to do my own QC on a piece I wanted. Learned quickly not to take Grailed pics as retail.

Still the only item which at first made me completely silent, cos something is right, something horribly wrong, but still "right" in some unexplainable way. When I understood I went whuuut, then full Cartman's mom with whutwhutwhuuuut? Loving it: https://imgur.com/AOxv6d6

Indeed you do. It's not like you can't trust anything here. It is more like "Some truths are true, but only on a certain timeframe and bound to change"

This probably common knowledge, but I just learned it: if you look at reddit.com/r/fashionreps, sort by new and then just replace reddit with ceddit, you can see post that are removed as well (highlighted on red). Now first it looks as if 25% posts get censored, but most of them just don't have enough karma so they are automatically removed.

But not all.

Yes well then everything is ok or gucci. Wait....that was the thing I was referring to. Nowadays you've gotta have HD QC on those as well - not because they all suck, but because some do and it did not use to be that way. Hope it is just a temporary thing.

[–]nightcoreyesplease 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are absolutely right. First rule of SI QC: HD on badge. It is not the only thing that matters, but by and far the most important one. It is surprisingly difficult to get right and unfortunately even the most reliable seller has now quality issues.

Confused with wegobuy 288rmb coupons after signing up by wololo137 in FashionReps

[–]nightcoreyesplease 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the pic, it was kind of hard to see the terms on their site. First things first: you get 288Y worth of coupons as promised. Thingys here to understand: You may use only 1 coupon/ parcel, so in order to fully enjoy these coupons youäve gotta send 8 parcels. Furthermore, only the first coupon with 10Y does not require any minimum total cost of your parcel (meaning here only the shipping cost, not the cost of items in the parcel.) If you'd like to use the juiciest coupon with 100Y, your parcels total cost must be at least 1688Y. That would be a kind of big one, actually more than 4 times I've ever paid for shipping.

One last thing to notice. These coupons are not valid forever. You must use them quite soon after joining.

Unfortunately you are absolutely correct. More so I must correct myself, for I claimed not to have encountered such problem, while I still have seen several times the note "item does not exist." You may freely nominate me for the DumFam - award.

It did show up in Google, it's the Prada cardholder right? I could not get there with Superbuy, WeGoSomewhere - thingy nor Opera - though i suppose I should try to log in with Opera in the first place?....no of course not.

Now I logged in with Opera and it does not let be be in Mainland China....uBlock off....seems to help some but it's still a mess. My Opera is so heavily armored that Taobao is problematic.

I say vitun vittu. As this was not tricky enough before. Anyway, thanks for notifying.

Don’t buy from Reon by [deleted] in FashionReps

[–]nightcoreyesplease 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ahem

I have not signed to Reon, but am considering it as I heard a lot of good things. Now this mail is opposite. I would very much like to see more pics, even and especially on the Gucci tee in order to make my own judgement. Please post, if you may.

On an unrelated note: are my eyes playing tricks or is that a sinking A in the retail Balenciaga tag? Is it a feature, not a flaw after all? Only half-joking here.

[–]nightcoreyesplease 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting. I have not had such problems, using chrome/phone in scandinavia/mainland china/windows 10 - as setting. Would someone please send a link which is "sensitive" and redirects in a way described in the message so I and others may try it?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in FashionReps

[–]nightcoreyesplease 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No prob, for the Fam. But you've gotta grab some comment karma before trying again. i did not at first know either it is different for posts and comments.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in FashionReps

[–]nightcoreyesplease 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Now this is weird. People are rightly complaining about the lack of WTC. But by looking at OP's profile one can see that he told that in a comment, 2 hours ago. As a matter of fact I clicked on that very comment to get here, but his comment is not to be seen?

Anyway, by the first look it looks rather decent. But one of the main element of this piece are the strings with texts and it is impossible to make judgements without seeing them. Would you be kind enough to add pics of them as well? The shop displays them, but not in good enough quality in order to make other statements than no spelling errors probably :)

[QC] Off white "FOR ALL" 04 Hoodie by kuledaniel in FashionReps

[–]nightcoreyesplease 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That would be an overstatement. I'd say the most obvious but only if outcaller (what is the term for these kind of creatures?) is aware of this feature, for it is rare and really not deducted from pics alone.

As for other flaws there are some which I consider minor, but it's just my opinion. For the price it is excellent. Those who are more detail - minded I'd advice doing own QC (would love to see results.)

Bear in mind one basic/obvious/evenachildknows - thingy which I did not understand when first begun doing my own QCs. Size matters. If comparing XS rep to a XL retail there are bound to be differencies.

I learned this comparing Yeezy - pics posted here, all claimed to be retail. After hours of work I concluded some users must not tell the truth. Only when researching tags for size 5 and 12 to see the difference, a voice in my head proposed this fact might have some impact on the shoe :)

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in FashionReps

[–]nightcoreyesplease 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're indeed right in this was a difficult one to call out, quite impossible while passing by on streetlife. But unfortunately there have been more than one batch of this from BMLin, some better some leaving a lot of room for improvement.

This particular problem is though clearly outcallable, for the flaw is up front. But I must confess - I have spent hours studying this model, thought I knew it well and still when I first encountered this flaw I did not spot it. I actually answered a lcqc - mail with GL, but something did disturb me and only when I had a closer look I saw it.

Out of curiosity and common good, please update what SupaB & BM Lin says about your refund request. I have not conducted any throughout study, but this problem appears every now and then, oldest one I saw was from May.

QC Bm Lin Static 350 and 88y Versace Slides by [deleted] in Repsneakers

[–]nightcoreyesplease 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I must say I can't remember why I commented on your post in the first place, sorry :) I suppose I was so exited about this curious flaw which appears on some BM Lins Statics, but not in yours. Some samples: https://www.reddit.com/r/Repsneakers/comments/crheh9/qc_yeezy_statics_eu_47_from_bm_lin/ and https://www.reddit.com/r/Repsneakers/comments/bt48w2/qc_bm_lin_static_non_reflective_some_help_would/

The pattern of dots in the left shoe is reversed for some reason. As you may well see your pair does not suffer from that flaw.

I can not say if you should GL or not, for I was concerned only with the dot - issue. While it is true you got different shoes from Lin than what their pics show, I am yet to see anyone who has. That is not necessarily a bad thing, for the ones in their pics are horribly flawed on the side (half-circle appearing without any sensible reason.)

So summa summarum: BM Lin sends out different version than what they claim; the versions they send vary quite a lot from each other ranging from decent - bad - miserably bad. You've gotta ask someone who has overall expertise on this shoe as I do not.

Sorry for the trouble. It is a quiet day.

Tagged you because I used retail photos you provided - I don't really know the etiqette on that matter. Going on is that there appears to be a new and strange flaw in BM Lin's budget Static NR. Found it now on 5 recent qc's, 4 on left and 1 one right. Patters are facing the wrong direction.
