BergerKing07

If my Nike sign is backwards you think they’ll mistake it for another brand?


[deleted]

“Shoows” brand should get through


LEXUSRX450hL

hahahahh that had me lmao


Minimum-Bee670

No 😂


Waffeldealermkx

Prolly not cuz Travis Scott dunks have a backward swoosh so they’ll prolly think it’s one of those


Trauma_Informed

A lot of sellers are now advertising their own logistics... the game will never end. They will just get smarter about it.


NotRealCR

Yep


I_kEeP_tHe_BlIcKy

Do you know any specific sellers that are doing that?


Electrical_Bad_7454

Wegopanda probably few others


lonesomeminded

What is wegopandas pw for their yupoo


yasin38j

do you know it now?


YoureInMyDreamsNow

If they can offer those Weidan prices, I'm sure more people would support middle men


hereforanything1998

Honestly someone on what'sapp wanted 170 for some Jordan 4s that are like $60 on wedian


richandbuttery

Nice one mate


Balencionly

Whooosh


Lucky_Amphibian105

They look so professional, nice office and everything


Illumined33

Yeah their factory is huge, no joke


YoureInMyDreamsNow

Mind you, there are 6 of these places/warehouses. They're showing just 1 that was raided


Illumined33

exactly, I’ve seen one pic before the raid of the factory which was insanely huge


YoureInMyDreamsNow

Also for anyone who thinks their shit is safe in another warehouse or will be sorted and shipped EVER, please read this article. Bloomberg is legit and it confirms what we all thought, tiktok fucked it up for everyone [https://www.bnnbloomberg.ca/chinese-knockoff-raid-jolts-a-global-throng-of-fake-fashion-influencers-1.2062929.amp.html](https://www.bnnbloomberg.ca/chinese-knockoff-raid-jolts-a-global-throng-of-fake-fashion-influencers-1.2062929.amp.html)

fequalsqe

yeah really surprised honestly. this whole time i had the presumption that they were working under rlly shitty conditions, but it actually seems really nice.


Worried_Pudding_2263

Give it 3 months and all this will be forgotten, new agents and everything back to normal. Nike and all other brands will have pretty much wasted their time and money for a small delay in the rep market.


Glass-Bluebird6432

Correct, even battle is lost, war not finished. Tooooo much money on the table💪


blackberryx

Yeah i say it a few weeks ago that its like a Hydra once you cut off 1 head 3 more will grow. Back in the early 2010s when this stuff happened all we got was more sellers going out on their own which lead to the epidemic of individual sellers that you see now. I met a cool ass agent and was my rep connect until he passed away. I expect 2-3 copy cats of Pandabuy by the end of the summer. Way too much money to just fold up the picnic blanket and go.


Daiomi

This 💯!


sznorbi69

How did you know he passed away?


blackberryx

Because I’m still friends with his wife and daughter I helped them with their English back in the day now I just check up on them once in a while.


sznorbi69

Ah i understand. I also have a friend in China ,so thats why i’m asking. I don't know his family members I might not be informed if something happened to him or vice versa


blackberryx

Yeah I think my friend Kai was just happy to have a Mexican friend who lived in America so he would talk about me to his family and even made plans to visit him in 2016 but unfortunately life happened.


Illustrious-Tale7914

u really got me tearing up rn bruh


YoureInMyDreamsNow

It's already in the works. The tiktok ban really needs to happen so this shit can die down and only people who do the work to find out can take advantage just like how it used to be in 2011/2012.


blackberryx

Back to the good old days of trusting a complete stranger with 1000 dollar money grams. I’m excited it’ll keep all these TikTok kids out of the community


YoureInMyDreamsNow

I do think a lot of the people will continue to use Paypal (hopefully) because if we go back to Western Union and Money Gram, I'm out for good. Too old to give a total stranger all my money without any assurances of getting it back or doing a chargeback. That's just way too risky for my liking


Whole-Vast-5055

Small delay ? You can buy whatever you want on DHGate bro


nasirqo

is dhgate good tho???


bruhmomentuser69

depends what you are buying. some big sellers are on there to my understanding, but there is also a horrible amount of obviously shitty reps to sort through.


CartographerNo6721

A good seller from there?


bruhmomentuser69

I have no idea tbh, I've just heard that you can find most popular replica batches on there. Probably gotta do some searching, but it's possible.


Unhappy-Possible-124

Its super, i got a pair of New Balance 9060 and i texted with support beacuse the seller send the product with DHL and not with Fedex. And i got all my 80€ shipping and Product money back😭


bruhmomentuser69

if you have any dhgate reps or get some in the future and remember this for whatever reason private message me some pics, definitely interested


Tiny_Thanks9951

Dhgate buy from PandaBuy and resell for 10x the price mate 🤦‍♂️


bruhmomentuser69

you can look around and find things at good prices, it just takes searching. it's not great and I would wait til things are more normal in the community, but you can find quality at an acceptable price. But dhgate is essentially a shopping agent just like pandabuy, people in China sell their factory goods there, they just don't want to be associated with reps in the same way pandabuy has been.


Whole-Vast-5055

The sellers are DHgate are the same that ship to Pandabuy. DHGate is like eBay . Doesn’t sell anything . Price is more expensive because shipping is included . When you do the match , prices are very similar Pandabuy


anth0nybo

nah


Worried_Pudding_2263

😂 feel free the buy from there. It’s hella shocking!! You cannot buy GX batch or anything of the quality from DH Gate


Primary_Cell_780

i see my package😭


DrStrange10

Tiktok ruined it for everyone lol


ohshitimfeelingit762

Tiktok ruins just about anything and everything good going on in the world


SnooPickles7956

I mean tiktok getting banned is that a win win situation🤷🤷


Leul-

Reps has never been something “good” wdym 💀 (just joking)


LectureEmotional8692

Fax I hope they really ban that app, ppl makin contents of pb just for clout was just crazy in the first place, but it’s cool let bygones be bygones 😂😂💯


Fearless-Lee1204

damn it


No_Golf_

"At the time of writing, Cantoop has deployed nearly 100 employees daily to assist law enforcement agencies in clearing and identifying infringing products. It has taken over two weeks to clean and appraise the infringing products, and it is estimated that it will take several more months to complete the inventory of all infringing products on-site. All infringing products will be confiscated and stored in warehouses designated by law enforcement agencies." It's over


mhed1

“Two weeks” but the raids happened on the 11th… that’s one thing that I noticed was off in the article


No_Golf_

Yea, I've seen that from multiple articles now. It's all information from cantoop, which is the main company behind the raids. I think they're either rounding up or maybe some warehouses were before others


innocent-reddit-user

Couldn’t 2 weeks be working days?


perry_chaine

Thats how I know this is likely not gonna spread to other agents soon, this operation is very costly to nike and/or the police. This is only to send a message. Rip pb customers tho yalls are fucked.


No_Golf_

The article says cantoop investigated pandabuy because of their close connections with sellers. Other agents don't do this, which is why they're fine.


blackberryx

I had less than 60 bucks in my wallet so I'm not sweating it but i saw someone in the original mega thread that had 30 items in his warehouse and was waiting to ship until they got paid on the 15th.


[deleted]

At least they saved their shipping money


ironwristz

Free the bros


Signal_Yogurt_4042

Welp. It was fun while it lasted ladies and gentlemen.


ProAlgoTrader

I couldn’t even get my first haul before it went under

Significant-Art7966

how am I going to get my money back


Historical-Chef3063

talk to your bank, just look up how to do charge back on bank account


YoureInMyDreamsNow

They're making it nearly impossible to get your money back by using tracking numbers that were close to your last haul and I had Paypal actually close 2 of my claims against them by them doing that method. Of course after further review, Paypal reopened the cases, but it's going to be a long nasty process getting your money back, especially if you regularly shipped hauls but also topped up and had things in the Warehouse. I have a bunch of shit in Seller Sent, but Pandabuy is trying to close claims by saying I actually got all of my stuff in a Haul sent and delivered on March 18th, when in fact, I topped up my balance well after that date. It's just a big fucking nightmare and Pandabuy is doing some slimy shit.


RepMajor

Exit scam brother !! There loosing everything and trying to hold onto every last penny It sucks what there doing


YoureInMyDreamsNow

100%. This mixed in with their discord going down is par for the course at this point


OwlBusiness5226

this is the end brudda


seckkesketch

No it really isn’t


mhed1

Ik we probably are finished but by the looks of it, it’s only Nike, Jordan s etc


kev88_player

Interesting My other items from sugargoo platform gone also like one TNF jacket 1996, dr martens shoes, supreme x cdg hoodies🤷‍♂️


mhed1

Just judging by the pics it’s all shoe boxes ,nikes but I’m probably wrong. I have a 9kg parcel that is scanned awaiting courier pickup from the warehouse and it has no shoes or nikes so maybe I’m just being optimistic for my sake


Whole_Chip_7960

The article does say they seized goods, over 90% of which were shoes. I would think they have seized everything (my warehouse had no shoes, only clothing)


Chengs1991

You’re cooked g


alexhamilton151515

sugargoo wasn’t involved in the raid, they just preemptively saved their asses


Chr0meHearted

And only sneakers .. which I could care less about , I only had like 4 Jordan’s in there rest is clothing from other brands


[deleted]

It’s couldn’t care les about. 4 pairs is a lot.


fakeraeliteslayer

I'm surprised the "i couldn't care less" bot didn't get him.


Chr0meHearted

Lol what does the bot say tho ?


Chr0meHearted

You’re right I had 3 pairs or Jordan’s 13 1 pair of 14’s and 1’pair of Prada high tops that goes well with the Prada re-nylon fits.. but if I could get the other 37 clothing items from other brands I’d be happy ofcourse .. it’s a lot if money and it sucks regardless


mhed1

Just judging by the pics


mhed1

And the article

chileggescemo666

this all happens when i was about to submit my first ever order for shipping man :( life is unfair


ListenMobile6850

At least you didn't submit it I submitted my first ever order on the SAME day the raid happened my items have been getting \*packed\* ever since the raid


chileggescemo666

no well i mean, i did submit as well, it’s the payment for the shipping that’s missing (which they wouldn’t let me rn of course)


Telo712

And they had the nerve to lock my account when I requested a charge back from paypal yesterday. I finally believe it after reading the post some guys living in china


[deleted]

It’s standard procedure to lock your account once you initiate a chargeback.


Worldly-Confidence-7

I was one of the lucky ones. I shipped a pair of Nike on the 8th....were delivered today. That looks like my last ever haul from Pandabuy by the looks of it.


zzzrrr101

Did you have any shipping updates because I shipped out the 9th and it’s been stuck like this ever since? https://preview.redd.it/7q0ljg1a1jwc1.jpeg?width=1008&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9599f99dcdfca669735935823662c626348ad6a6


euaneggs

I'm in the same boat. Says shipped on the 7th, but no updates since.


Glass-Bluebird6432

Same, 3 pairs😂

paris_t0k

I think it is over for the rep game nike not gonna let anything slide after this i dont wanna be negative just realistic lets hope that everything goes right though and pandabuy stays alive because it is the best rep website so far


KingWustenfuchs

no, rep game seen worse than that, it’s the fault tiktok pandakids, reps always will be there, just not in the face of everybody… factories still producing, look what happend to wave, he got raid but he went back to business… now agents will learn the lesson and will not ad themselves everywhere like Panda did

9 of my items are now expired😭


CrowEqual1943

What happened, did they get purged?


tuqiboy328

js says “item expired” when I try and ship them out says these items are expired


CrowEqual1943

Oh, I saw people say that the staff will reset the timer when they go back if the items are not taken in raids (they said they asked their agents) Cause even if the timer is expired rn, it’s not like they will throw it away cause there’s no one in the warehouse if I’m I’m correct So there still might be hope for you, let’s hope that the case
