Because then you wouldn't be able to flex your shit as real. Selling as real and scamming people is wrong, but if people flex on you with their rep, you should realize that retail is just overpriced at this point. I mean, who spends 1k for a jordan? Or even buying a simple tee for 450€ like bruh
@@deshapedttv1033 yea at this point its just done for monetary value more than anything. i would spend max 300 for a piece of clothing or a pair of sneakers.
@@ajayadhisankar4139 I don't earn my own money yet, and i'm quite spoiled. My parents would buy me sneakers up to 400€ if I really wanted them, and I have a few clothing pieces that are worth about 300€. Though, I know if I were to earn my own money, never would I buy such expensive clothing. And for Tshirts and shit I would pay max 150€, jackets like 400 to 600 is okay if they're good like Stone island jackets. But thats about it.
To be fair, some reps are by definition a UA considering they’re made by the same factories and everything. But the idea of UA’s are just a meme in the rep community.
xmattx I’m sure some are. How could you know? Lol. Why wouldn’t you just produce more and then sell them on other ways especially when you see these aftermarket prices
@@ZeMurdeRouSsCL0WN Yeah pretty much this, you can cut a lot of costs if you overlook control quality, brand fees and just hype in general also some of the materials for sneakers are dirt cheap in the cities they're being produced, economy of scale and all that and the "specialized workers" come from the same cities If they come from China they are either from Putian, Jinjiang or Guangzhou prolly that's as far as i know, about vietnam nothing really
Bruh, you don't get it, unauthorized clothing is underground fashion. Im wearing my own selfmade authentic Rick top I made out of a bedsheet right now. No one can tell the difference
@@AbeC301 Yeah but UAPlg is scummy. That's way too damn much. Middlemen usually only charge up to $160 before shipping for their services but the product costed them like $60-100. Anything over that is ridiculous.
The sadder thing is that half of these shoes are probably mid-tier batches so $250-400 for a pair of reps is closer to 3-6x the price it costs to actually get them.
@@jacobalexander5727 everything you've ever bought in your life is worth pennies and marked-up. that's how business works dumbass. or you think you're computer, phone or laptop has actually $500 of materials and labor inside? no, its probably no more than $50.
BafeHD the new iphone 11 pro max cost around $500 to make.. And some things like the processor and ios are specific to apple. Value runs deeper than the cost of the materials, not that you were relatively close to knowing what that was
@@87155 you're right. A lot of people walk around expecting to pay $500 for something that cost $499 to make. When you pay for something like an iPhone you're paying for the months of R&D (research and development) to make the product. It cost Apple millions in workers' salaries to design a new phone, so the profit has to come from somewhere.
Damn and I thought rare shoe equals quality shoe. Seems like I have to cancel my order for the unauthorized -cheap fake- *authentic* chunky dunky for just 400$
Uaplg is a scam, out of curiosity i ordered the off white hyperdunks(which i already owned) to compare them cuz i wanted to see if it was real, my card got “declined” 5 times and i got charged the money 5 times
BRUH. its not a scam. my sister ordered balenciaga track runners from there and got them today. they light up come with charger and everything. LEGIT AF
@@dvbs3608 I mean super technically they're not even replicas. Same as buying jordan 1s from a sneaker store instead of a nike store. But yeah it doesn't hurt your ego as much as buing actual reps lol
@@apo911 they are "actual reps". they aren't made in the same factory with the same materials, thats just what say but in reality they are the same as any other rep, just overpriced
I copped a Burberry hoodie from their website. The attention to detail is insane. The washing labels and Burberry labels on the inside of the hoodie plus the tag that hangs out of the hoodie looks identical to a legit one. Some sellers don’t even include that. I think it’s the attention to detail makes the prices worth what they are. I’ve gotten some reps from other sellers, and the attention to detail just isn’t there.
i completely agree with you but the most important and overlooked thing about all this is that selling counterfeit (fake/UA) clothes is illegal so i dont know why these websites arent being taken down and sued. i saw an article yesterday saying Nike fired some of its staff due to a $900M decrease in profits which honestly could be directly related to this counterfeit shoe thing blowing up so much... let me know what yall think
I mean at least the shoes are pretty much same quality since they're made with the same materials and panels by the same factory Nike uses. Still kinda sketch that other websites claim to also use the same materials and factories but sell for much cheaper.
Just buy Adidas Samba's. $90 and when on sale which is always its $50. Great quality and style, plus no fakes on Adidas.com. No hype too so your not a try hard.
UA is bs. As a member of repfam, we all know it’s a cover for shitty drop shipped wish fakes. Not going into detail, you can get better reps for $30-40 than they sell for $270. The clothes are even worse. I’m talking the most you should spend on a rep tee is $15, shorts like $25, a hoodie should never be over $30. I have perfect 1:1 yeezys I got for $30. All reps use the same materials as retail. I don’t endorse buying counterfeit goods but this comment was so educate😎
My travis scott af100’s for about 24 dollars come in soon, hoping they’re really good, according to what I’ve seen the only flaw is the missing 3m or some shit
Unauthorized authentics is just a label terrible factories give to their junk. No ACTUAL factories that produce Nike's would put their contracts on the line to sell some "extras". The materials are NOT the same, hell even the cuts are WAY off from legit kicks. Plus most are covered in uv ink as they don't know how to produce the kicks properly and need marks to line stuff up. I like how they show off white junk, as the fonts are always way off. Let's put it this way, if they were Authentic, there wouldn't be thousands of RU-vid videos showing the differences between real and fake kicks.
They actually are legit. I brought a pair of balenciaga from the actual store in Soho and brought a pair from the uaplg and compared them & there were no fuck ups. It came with the exact same shit and the print was exactly the same. Plus they actually do throw out alot of shoes they dont need in the factories. I know fake when I see it but I wouldnt trust the clothes lol.
I copped a pair of Ben & Jerry’s for 145+20 S&H not from UAplug though. I didn’t look to deep into dans promotions or story. Especially in a negative light. Anyway I got the dunks because I really wanted em & didn’t want to pay $1k+ to your point though I agree he shouldn’t be selling the shoes for such a high price! Essentially there not even a shoe. There just fakes. Yeah they’re the ones ppl want but it’s not the real deal! 240-260 for a shoe that cost them $5-10 to make is ridiculous. I think if the quality is that good & his story lines up with the quality. Than maybe just maybe it’s worth that happy medium vs paying ridiculous resell prices. On the outset the prices are pretty crazy for fakes💯
Literally if you care that much if people wear fakes or not, you just a hypebeast that likes to flex the price tag of your shoes rather than wearing the shoe because you like it. Especially if it’s a shoe that’s only being used for casual use, there’s no way $350+ is reasonable for retail or resale.
Its totally ok to wear reps, but its not ok to sell reps for 220$+ or even more when you can buy same or better quality reps chaper From UAPLG standpoint, its business and they want to profit from selling reps, but its overprized af For 250$ you can buy some nice lgt pair of new shoes or used one
“Are there legit?” As legit as drinking water from a puddle and calling it Voss... its still water but you’ll know it isn’t and if people find out they’ll look down on you
(gonna probably get hate for this) i buy ua sneakers because i like the looks of sneakers, but the ones i really like are really expensive for my age, i don’t see a purpose in buying a pair of shoes for an arm and leg, i’d rather pay $150-200 for the same pair that looks the same, i am against people reselling ua shoes because that’s just scamming, idk just my view, lay all the hate on me idrc
Actually made a deal just a few days ago, on Yeezys for 120 I know they're fake, but I just really wanted them to try and make a custom and I really don't wanna use my legit Yeezys. Don't wanna fuck up a pair of practically new Yeezys...
I have no problems with replicas but I have the problem when someone says it’s real rather than just saying it’s the replica ... at the end of the day it’s either you buying them for the HYPE or you buying them for the CULTURE
I don’t think unauthorized means fake. All it simply means is that there’s a flaw when they made the shoe and made them as throw always. The ones that are authorized they just have the limited shoes and just mark them at a really high price. Not only it’s expensive it’s also just outrageous for them doing this. So with that being said if they say a certain pair is fake then all is. I don’t see stuff as fake or real just because of the word authorize. It’s nothing but a label.
its literally just a lie though. they just say that they're ""MaDe In ThE sAmE fAcToRy" since there is no way for anyone to actually verify it. They literally just buy the same batches as other rep sellers but charge a ridiculous upcharge because "iTs ChEaPeR tHaN rEsElL!!!!".
There's a specific store in the Philippines that sells the most expensive reps there and the quality is premium. I think UAPLG has high quality products, I know someone who got an amazing pair of OW Reaper Blazers from UAPLG and they looked spot on and seemed to be made of insanely good materials. They have had much older insta accounts, they've all been shut down before. Probably as they sell counterfeit items. I do think they use disingenuous wording with making out it's not reps and using original pieces, but i do believe that they are great quality and possibly even use ex Nike/Adidas staff etc
this video is BS the quality is AMAZING it literally feels like the real bc they use the same exact material from the reals , btw when you buy they place stock x tags and stickers in the box to make it seem legit :)
if they were actually unauthorized authentic pieces i wouldnt really care, but at this point just say theyre reps and be done with it. hell i would even justify the price if they used the same/better materials as the originals
Tbh. I kinda feel like the reason why the reps games is growing and growing daily, is bc people wanna be cool and shit but Resellers taking the entire stock of GRs or QS sneakers so it’s impossible to pay retail and ppl like me who doesn’t wanna pay resell will go to Reps. I don’t personally buy reps but I’m in the communities shit’s crazy the game.
I recently found your videos like 2hrs ago and just like you do with any new channel I checked a couple more. But fuck coming into this one and seeing you are very well cultured by watching the great show of community I know now that I in fact am in love with you. (Talk about a run on sentence)
This a reply for you two: i knew it was gonna be a mistake, and lmao i only wanted it because i dont wanna spend so much money on a real one. I have failed fuckhopsin. Also if you mean my parents bought it or some shit, it wasnt.
tnoIH413X I’m against fakes tbh but u see how sheep minded people are they said it’s a bad decision that u paid less for a fake piece then paying the resale price for a tee what a bunch of sheep’s lmfao
Personally I wouldn’t buy shoes that cost over 500 and up cuz that’s a waste of money I prefer to have a UA pair of those $1000 sneakers that cost 200-270$ people are gonna call me broke but tbh I really don’t care even if I was a millionaire I would still buy a really good UA pair
buying fakes has always been okay. it's legal too. so there is no problem unless it's a reseller complaining that they lose money they shouldn't really be getting in the first place.
i thought the rest of the episodes were the same quality and I enjoyed them the same as every other episode, but I have been hearing people saying that it went downhill from there, ion know i think it was still good😶 source: i am dan harmon ps source i just finished it like 3 days ago but also i am dan harmon
Wow those post are pure cringe, I honestly don't care what people do with their money, but even if what that seller says it's true, I find it quite idiotic buying those sneakers just to belong and be part of the "rich" group. From what I saw in the video his prices aren't even that good it practically cost the same as retail, you are just not buying at the ridiculous prices resellers ask for.
@@siva_archive6368 his friends accused him of selling/stealing the raf bomber from his videos. That jacket is like 40k and its apparently not even his own jacket. His friend owned the jacket. And he lied about having a job.
@@siva_archive6368 also, When he makes clothing for vujade, he makes small quantities so when it's time to sell he gives his friends a password so they get it first and apparently someone leaked the password. He is accused of doing that password thing because his costumers said it sold out fast and it was reselling really high on grailed.
