Romeo Brown the review was on the GOLD PLATED one I bought. So I gave my opinion on the gold plated one. I can’t give my opinion on the SOLID gold from the shop. So if someone was interested in buying the plated one like I did, then they have my opinion. 😉
@@cubaknow I can respect ur opinion but my thing is this. If u going to compare gold plated then compare it to another gold plated chain. Since u got real gold chain wouldn't it been better if u would have bought a real gold solid chain from gldshop and then compare to the other real gold chain just pointing that out as my opinion.
Romeo Brown the comparison was for maybe 10 seconds and the review of the video was for the actual bracelet and I believe I stated “it’s not even fair to compare this to a real one” people buy the gold plated to have it resemble the real one, this doesn’t look like a real one at all. 😉
Finally someone being honest and knows what there talking about theres so much youngsters on RU-vid reviewing gld saying it’s great quality. I’m glad u where honest G
Bro read what you just said . you said youngsters thats cz theu young and getting started with the feel of jewlery. This dude is old as fuck has one piece from then and thats what he gets teying to even buy sonething plated at his age poor thing. This is the firat video agains GLD i ever seen
@@jjsshit86 so if you young you should rock trash ass jewelry? Or say dumb shit like gold plating is quality? Nigga you must be one of them dumb broke lik niggas tryin flex😂😂😂😂
CUBAKNOW LOCO got me rolling I’m more in to silver I seen this Miami Cuban 925 silver just any suggestions I like gold stuff but rn gold is a lil expensive for me rn like I wanna rock out something that’s real and not plated do you got any suggestions or and experience on those type of silver chains
I recently bought 2weeks ago a SOLID 14k gold 24inch 5mm flat curb link chain with a Solid 14k Gold Mariner anchor Cross pendant . Paid $1,838 for it(Price/value of Gold has gone up a lot due to the economic crisis caused by this coronavirus pandemic) Anyways I’m happy walking around with something REAL around my neck, with no worries. Word of advice to anyone who wants to buy nice jewelry is to start putting money to the side 💵 and just buy a real piece. No matter how long it takes to save, honestly I’d be patient saving up for something real. It’s worth it 💯
This is great advice and also for the kids that can’t wait and have to flex right now. Start with real solid silver and save your way up to real gold. Trust me, the feeling of knowing everything you got on is legit is unmatched.
lmao. You gotta realize the majority of their customers don’t even know what real solid gold looks like so they don’t even notice how off the coloring is which is due to them using brass as the base metal so it kinda seeps through the plating. They do have vermeil options for some of their pieces which I would recommend because it looks a lot better and the piece will at least be worth something. I never bought a chain or bracelet from them but I do have a couple pendants which are both Vermeil and they look closer to 10k solid gold. Decent pieces that I’ve had for a year or so and still look great.
rhymegarden vermeil is just a fancy word of electroplating 925 and the longer it’s in the solution the better results there are 14kt standard to 24kt but usually most jewelers use up to 18kt and the longer it’s being electroplated and pre polished the better results
Imo from owning lots of "fake" jewellery from the gldshop.. (vids on my page) I always go with the cz combos and they look great. Vermiel looks 1:1 like 10kt. I've never found great craftsmanship in any plain gold plated items and there just not worth it.. but for some people that know they'll never afford the real deal but like the look, it's worth it. When your wearing it most people wont be able to tell its plated or fake.. unless someone knows extremely good craftsmanship like me and cuba 😂
Ive bought a pendant and a few chains, quality is amazing, never had any tarnishing etc. Still looks brand new and never had a problem with their jewelry.
Best Gamer Memes when you have real jewls its hard to buy / settle for fake ones because the quality is so different.. its kinda like fake clothes.. if your used to having real gucci kicks you instantly can feel and tell the difference with fake guccies.. u get what im saying? Thats why he was instantly disgusted at the bracelet because he own so many REAL items.
@@Dreweybaby I mean what's really fake? Jewelry is jewelry lol diamonds ain't really worth anything it's just a value we put on it . If it don't fade and we like it, who really cares? It's what we like. Affordable or not. I just want a nice pendant of me and my son. It looks nice, all I care about
If you want a bigger chain or bracelet, (like in this vid) get it in vermeil or solid gold not gold plated. Big chains that are gold plated chip a lot and since it is a big chain, you can see it easier. With small chains, you cant see the chip marks just a little tip to buy a chain on gld
Imma be honest, I've ordered from them and actually liked it. I have two real 24k gold chains from birth and the chain that I got from shopgld is honestly pretty good quality for the fact that you're buying gold plated. You're stupid if you go into shopgld wanting to buy gold plated and then not understanding what you're buying. If you want real gold then get real gold, don't be cheap and then complain about it. The color is damn near exact to my real gold chain. Imma be honest the chains this guy got on himself don't even look like real gold. He doesn't look like he knows what he's buying. The chains are good for what you're buying. It's some of the best gold plated jewelry you gonna get. Obviously there's jokes about buying gold plated but it's good product.
@@guacfiend LMFAO so I sound like I work for them just because I have a different opinion than the misinformed guido in the video? Whatever you say bruh, just keep watching biased reviews and miss out on good product. This guy was biased from the jump because he ironically went and bought something he thought he was too good for, which makes no sense. Don't go buying gold plated shit and then complain that it's gold plated. All I said was that I bought from them before and I liked it. I don't give a damn bout no shopgld at the end of the day. It could be any similar brand and I would share my experience. I've bought from Craftd too and their shit is good
Someone who pushes product or sponsors from another jewelry company who is in competition shouldn’t be making product reviews. The review will obviously be bias.
CUBAKNOW LOCO CUBAKNOW LOCO CUBAKNOW LOCO My guyyy lol, so why are you comparing a company that makes solid gold jewelry to a company that makes plated ones... no shit the jewelry gunna be “trash” in comparison. Go back to selling cologne.
Matt Kp Fr dude honestly he can’t even compete with gld they would fuck him for his lil business they have concerts bro with big artists and and don’t only sell gold plated idk why this narcissistic fuck is talkin shit
Bro go and buy from shopgld or similar place. They have both big and small gold plated pieces. This guy doesn't know what he's talking about and seemed biased coming into the video. For between 100-200 you can get a really good gold plated chain that doesn't fade, looks pretty much real and gives you good value for your money
CUBAKNOW LOCO yea it can depend on the product like I got a plated rope chain and I also have a real solid gold rope chain they look the same and the quality is pretty good
@@Savethepandabears i bought a 5 or 6mm chain from gld and it came with a 3mm rope chain for free and it was a good deal because the cuban costed 150 and the rope costed 100 but i got them both for 120 and the cuban is nice but the rope is a little bit magnetic so i think it might be fake even though it said they were both 18k the cuban hangs straight and hasnt even started to fade after 3 months the only thing i dont like about it is on the latch thing to close it is a big GLD and it just looks weird to me but otherwise i like it a lot
I also slightly disagree with this guy, being a reviewer of Shop Gld myself, I can confidently say that the quality of this brands gold plated or "fake" pieces are superior to every single other brands gold plated pieces that i've reviewed. Sure the price is pretty steep compared to other brands but the quality is most certainly there. I also feel like you made this entire video irrelevant the second you decided to compare a real cuban to a plated one. But those are just my thoughts 💯
@@stony62ss10 oh you think it has no weight its actually heavy don't make an ass out of your self by assuming it makes you look crazy that's the first thing people do is pick it up and then they go ohhh that thing is heavy
Man I bought a piece and wanted a return, that took a whole 30 days and over 45 emails. I will say the first Cuban I bought was solid and heavy, very nice plating. But my return came back straight garbage, super lightweight and the gold plating was light asf damn near looked silver.
Word shop gld is bad for that. My first chain from them was so nice I had to buy the same one but bigger and it showed up looking like something off wish
other companies use the same supplier and push out the same goods just lack in packaging , @motionluxurygoods takes requests on what you want and they sell it to you under retail price you just need to DM them on instgram they are my plug.
You have never dealt with real good quality jewellery yet then, in my opinion all this fake shit isn’t worth it the joy you’re gonna feel from the real thing is unbeatable
They ripping off everyone 🤣🤣🤣 I’m sorry for you if you really think it’s good and worth it, you’re missing out on actual quality, just save up for something real 🤦🏻♂️ and stop lying to yourself
Question why would u get a plated one if gldshop also sells REAL solid gold chain. Would it had been better if u would have bought a solid gold chain from gldshop and then compare it to the other real one just thought I would point that out. Beside that keep doing ur thing.
Color Money yeah they dumb af and dont know shit about jewlery. Why waist $100 on sum fake shit when u can save up a lil more n buy something small thats real
Tristan Cornejo I don’t see the point in buying plated or shitty quality they are definitely not the best when they haven’t been in the business for that long lmao 😂 your delusional but ok
I bought a pair of earrings from them about two weeks ago, and I love them so much. They are the best quality jewelry store that I have found. Furthermore, their prices are affordable which is perfect for my budget. I would recommend this store to anyone who is looking for hip hop jewelry!
I bought a gold plated chain from GLD to help me decide if that’s the size I wanted to purchase in a real one. It was HORRIBLE quality. Shit didn’t even look like they used gold to plate it. If you’re going to get a plated chain go elsewhere. I had it back in the box in 10 minutes and shipped back to them for a refund the same day. It is TRASH.
Wasn't a video of real vs plated, and their 14k bracelet is marked up a bit more then most for something they don't make in house. Plated jewelry is made affordable and plated with real gold, so its supposed to give the impression of a 10-22k, but these particular (idk about the whole line) did not give a "real" look which is what i assume people look for when they buy gold plated. Just an opinion.
I've seen split reviews on shop GLD. Like the cheaper end around $100 always seems like the same shit you can get on any chinese knockoff jewelry site. But it seems like they have higher quality jewelry too like their white gold plated or solid white gold (for 60k) diamond prong cuban they have. I'd love to see someone who knows what they're talking about review those higher up options too.
So here’s my question, if this is not worth the $100, is there something better quality for the money? Obviously I understand we’re dealing with super cheap versions of the legit thing here so they’re all gonna be sub par as far as quality goes. But I’ve seen some stuff that I know is fake just from who’s wearing it, but to the average person they wouldn’t know the difference
Jacoje jewelry is by far my pick for gold. All solid pieces and solid links. Top of the line business man with excellent customer service. And his packaging with authenticity certificate is a great piece of mind! Daniel jewelry inc would be my second pick.
rem_ ram XD yes well overpriced! $45,000 😂😂😂 You can go to dtla not the booths because those are just armo salesman, you need to go upstairs find an actual office usually a small office Koreans do the most of the work for all the Arabs downstairs that mark up 10x of what you can get it done for and I looked at the ridiculous pricing 10kt gold piece 20” is generally about 75-100 grams for a tennis necklace will cost you $2000 to cast it and labor about $500 max to set the stones on 3 or 4 prong findings that the jeweler buys wholesale for like $300 bucks tops and then you get your si diamonds 5mm wholesale is like $300-$400 a stone 20” is 60 stones so in total it’s around $2200 max just on diamonds , grand total cost $5000 more or less ..
rem_ ram XD I bought an iced out bracelet from em and was honestly disappointed. I have another similar one from ice box both 14k gold w si diamonds and the ice box one is way better and was 5000$ cheaper gld be taxing
Don’t buy from them!! They will give you a run for your money, if you try to return it they will take forever to get back to and make YOU pay for shipping!!
A $100 is a little ehhh, but c’mon bro let’s be honest here for a second…it doesn’t look THAT bad!! Obviously it’s fake and the quality isn’t going to be 1:1 otherwise it wouldn’t be a $100, but like you said these chains/bracelets are fashionable and people want them bc they’re stylish asf. So if you just wear them and go about your day I can promise you people aren’t gonna notice or care, but if you’re someone who’s gonna go around shitting on people and flexing with fake ass $100 chains then best believe you’ll get what’s coming to you.
If you want gold jewelry flex save up to 400 and you can get some nice pieces in 10k or 10k solid gold but hollow link for a nice price and your jewelry won’t tarnish.
I been buying gold plated chains lately to see if I like there design and quality before I spend a couple of G^s buying a solid gold chain from them. been hearing alot from shop gold and king ice.....but not convince to buy a solid chain from them yet.....any good jewelry company you guys know that wroth spending the money on???? I like the gold plated king ice chain than shop gold....what ya think?
And to think I was gona buy a solid gold Miami Cuban chain from them. Can’t wait for my 5mm Miami Cuban from Daniel Jewelry inc. Thank for putting them on!
Bought a sterling steel bracelet from them a few months ago, I enjoyed it until I realized it wasn't on my wrist anymore. sleek lock on it was an absolute troll but for $30 what much could you expect.
Yo, love your vids bro. I got a question about your chain. Since you have worn it has it changed at all? Like does it still hang straight. Did the links move at all as far as not link together tightly. Idk how else to describe it. But I’ve have my dji chain for like 3 months now. If that and it doesn’t hang straight anymore and the links don’t fit together like it did when I first got it. Idk what’s up, or what happened but I’m thinking about calling them and sending it back to fix it. I barely wear it but for maybe a few hours each weekend when I go shopping or run errands. So it’s not like I wear it everyday or beat it up. When I dont have it in it sits in my air condition house on a felt jewelry chest/neck stand. Idk wtf happened. Just curious as to how yours has held up?
CUBAKNOW LOCO thanks man. I’ll check it out before I call them. I don’t think the links will even flip around they are so tight. But never know. Thanks for the response bro. Keep up the vids. Love them. I went to dji because of you. And that pendant is beast. Can’t wait to get my Fl piece done
J Vansickle Bro, I got my 7mm 20” Miami Cuban in 14k white gold from DJI back in August. I love, love, love this fuking thing. I sent it back for them to convert the box lock to sleek lock. I love it even more now. Anyway, it hangs straight as an arrow. I wear it all the time, 24-7s. It occasionally kinks up but rebounds easily with a quick adjustment/reset while around my neck. I would contact DJI with your concern. If the chain was made correctly, you shouldn’t have any problems with it. They will hook you up with a prepaid shipping label. Send that thing back, let them look it over and fix it.
Adamas thanks bro. I have had many chains. No issues. And I’m not sure what’s going on with this chain. I don’t beat it up. So I’m not sure why it has changed at all. It still looks great. But I can see flaws now. And it doesn’t hang straight at all like it did when I first got it. Just very strange to me. I will be calling them. I like that sleek lock too. Was thinking about changing mine as well. But not sure. Anyways. Appreciate your comment
Cause there solid gold is over priced. Also consider that the gold plated Cuban links are created to give the impressions of a solid gold Cuban link chain. Are they not? All these costume chains are created to resemble actual gold or diamond jewelry. So since some people don’t care about wearing actual solid or simply can’t afford it then it should look like the actual gold Product that it’s trying to mimic. Which my product didn’t, especially when some Asian brands are making better quality, realistic looking, with richer gold tones with some offering high electroplating, without the large price tag they attach due to the massive marketing they do. I am not saying all products they sell are shit, but my product definitely was.
IceBlingers is the best hip hop jewelry store in the market! They have all of the jewelry you could ever want, and they offer it at very reasonable prices. I bought my gold chain here, and I'm very happy with how well-made it is. I will buy all of my jewelry from them in the future!
Dude! Even on my 4” phone screen I can tell the difference in color. I’d sooner rock granddads copper Cuban, and wax on about my green wrist and its arthritis healing. Years ago the bought a Panerai homage, the first question about it I alway had to answer,, “is that a real one”!! Same kick in the nuts, when you rock any fake shit.
When will people stop pretending there’s a difference? There was no difference between the bracelet on your wrist and that bracelet you unboxed as far as “looks” go. That’s what you people do it for, right? The look? So what difference does it make at the end of the day ha ha. I’m not into jewelry and this video was in my recommended.
Gold plated stainless steel and brass jewelry is usually shinier than real gold. It can be to shiny tho. Color is often dark so you need to go with 14K and not 18k or 24k. 14K is lighter and looks closer to real gold on plated jewelry. Gold plated looks Ok especially if you dont want to spend a lot of money. I have both real and fake. I prefer gold plated silver most, if I dont do real gold. It looks identical to gold and is the way to go because it's not fake. Lasts a long time. Just costs more.
@@lonniewhite4262 dude just shut the fuck up. So if i have a ferrari and you a dodge i can tell you to buy a real car because mine is more expensive. Fucking idiots
Abstrxct Music I hear u bro if u like check out Harlembling.com bro I still mess with gldshop but Harlem bling is top notch bro real talk and they are legit. If u like take a look at my channel and u will see how legit they are bro all my jewelry is REAL. Also im doing a free giveaway as well matter of fact it’s in my newest video that I just put up if u like to go take a look. Btw Harlem bling sells pure silver solid gold and stainless steel they also sell cz, lab diamond which are real diamonds, and they sell natural diamonds. Keep ur head up let no one hold u down bro.
@@xyrbn6322 It has a figure 8 clasp probably cause it isn't that thick and it isn't welded between the links. The links are close though and look good. The stones are set really well and has a nice shine to em. I wear the chain maybe twice a week (off and on skin) and the plating shows minor scratches but nothing too deep is still holding up til today and looks very good
