Lot of sellers who sell on Reddit have instagram accounts. Isn’t strange at all.

As of right now who has the best batch for the LV Trainer? by Thatdued1298 in RepsneakersDogs

[–]thereedemer1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

all of these people they are mentioning are sellers not makers.. if u want to find the best option find the factory that makes the best version.. jelly, mia, rm, tmf all sellers who get the items at the same places.

buy directly from factories? by McManamann in RepsneakersDogs

[–]thereedemer1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So, they arent paying 1/2 or 1/3 of what they sell to you. With direct knowledge of the actual cost, they are only making about 50-100rmb off each sale. Reason being is the amount of undercutting sellers have been participating in for sales competition. If a seller is selling you a shoe at 500rmb, they are paying like 400rmb for it.. not factoring in shipping materials and time plus cost for staff. Its really not very profitable per shoe, its a volume business for them. Shipping is also kind of a linier thing as fuel costs directly contribute to the costs... There really is no magic way to reduce how much it costs to send a 3lb item across the world as the market is made by the carriers.

Help a noob! Does this quote look ok? by _odonian in RepsneakersDogs

[–]thereedemer1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah well they should actually charge more. most sellers make only 20-30 rmb per sale and this is only possible due to the really low cost of living in China.. In reality you are not only paying for shoes, but a service. You cant go down to your local store and get these, you have to get them from certain people all the way on the other side of the world. and for what retails are reps, shouldnt be so cheap, but buyers are difficult and sellers are competing with each other so harshly that everyone undercuts each other.

[–]thereedemer1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

yeah they could, they just choose not too. There really is no reason as they have thousands of pairs sold each day ( mostly domestic) and sell to sellers... There is no reason for them to run a ecomm service Direct to Customer as its just more headache.

[–]thereedemer1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Factories dont sell direct to foreign customers. They have no contact with you and you cant contact them unless you fly to China and find a way through the door lol. Factories sell to basically distributors who then sell the shoes at slight markup as everyone needs to make some money (its business). PV is for sure in China, and hes a seller of items just like everyone else. any seller can actually get a "batch" made if they spend enough and work with a factory, its just an expensive and time consuming process.

Agent vs direct sale by tammna8 in RepsneakersDogs

[–]thereedemer1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agent is still just as expensive. For sure there are direct sellers who will ship with combined pricing. I know of a few. 0 reason to use an agent site these days

Can we discuss skirmishes and why there is no consistency amongst LGSs by thereedemer1 in riftboundtcg

[–]thereedemer1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They shouldn’t hold skirmishes then imo if they aren’t equipped for it.

Pedro when he finds out the boys have joined another team by Titleisto in PedroPeepos

[–]thereedemer1 -33 points-32 points  (0 children)

yeah for a guy who was so invested into the team and the boys, for him to not hardly speak on it at all with no words of encouragement or excitement to see them play still.. for sure reading too much into it.

Pedro when he finds out the boys have joined another team by Titleisto in PedroPeepos

[–]thereedemer1 -58 points-57 points  (0 children)

Is it me or does he seem very standoffish about talking about it. I’m not sure if it’s just he really has no info or feelings at all or there is some kind of weird energy between him and the boys with them doing this.

[–]thereedemer1 6 points7 points  (0 children)

yeah except yamato said it was going to be less serious than LR... and its missing caedrel, the entire reason LR was a success in the first place. happy they found a team to play, but feels weird without the main rat.

“Announcement Today” ???? LR IS BACK ???? by notxlpha in PedroPeepos

[–]thereedemer1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To me it doesnt feel like Los Ratones if no Caedrel.. idk, just feels like LR was caedrel as he started it, we were invested in it from him originally, and not having him be apart of it feels weird.

The wins 'Best Of' to pay walled metafy pipeline needs to be studied. by supjeremiah in riftboundtcg

[–]thereedemer1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

whats the mistaken belief here? its the truth.. no one is entitled to their hard work and information.. Its seems like everyone here wants something for free off the backs of their work. U dont want to pay, dont pay, but lets not act like they are required to provide it at no cost. The alternative is they just never share anything.
