Why are there so many haters on this site?

have alot of old navy---north face--columbia...Izod ..yep original and big sizes

I have been to a few of these markeds, and so far not found any originals of any brand I Am familiar with. Some ok copies, but still either colour, seems, the weight of material (quality) or the wrong labels. 

 

I checked around a few years ago and when you find something that is original, someone is steeling, or the production site produce extra they dump on the marked. Now most companies have an agent at the sites who control the production from start to end, so less chance to have a production company exploiting the quality brands. 

 

There are production companies that make good copies, but they are still fake. 

 

I know because I was just about to make a little collection myself to test the marked back home, if it was possible to make a little return and have free travels to and back. COVID made a temporary stop for those plans.

Have you ever been to garment factories in Cambodia?

 

Do you know how to use Google?

 

Look it up. All the name brands are there.

 

What exactly do you expect the factory in Cambodia to do with all the clothes made under a specific contract that did not get delivered to meet the contract deadline?

 

If you did run a sport outlet you would know exactly what happens, yet you have no clue???????

 

To educate you, they are dumped into the local market, where anyone can buy in bulk pounds. Just like the photo shows.

 

Your braggadoccio is all it is.

 

You have proven you know nothing about how this works at all.

 

You know nothing about how much it costs to make anything in Cambodia. Any clue how much the average garment worker in Cambodia is paid per hour?

 

Take a drive over and educate yourself. It would be more educational than your false stories here.

 

Maybe while you are there, visit the Friendship Bridge and stop and ask any of the 100's of people a day pulling loading wagons across the border. Ask they what they bought and how much they paid for it?

 

I have been there and bought quality items for my family to resell, all you have is fake stories and no idea how the industry even works over here.

 

Sometimes it is better to say nothing, than to say something everyone will know is not true.

Nice try to continue to try to pick a fight when you obvious do not know what to look for when it comes to quality products. Fake or stolen!

 

Have a good day sir

He made very valid points. There used to be a chain of clothing stores called Export 71 (or 77?) that was very popular with many foreigners due to the range of quality products in farang sizes. Most notably, all the identifying tags had been cut out but I bought Eddie Bauer branded polo's, Levi branded shorts and 5.11 ballistic work wear that were mostly perfect but had fallen foul of the retailers own final quality control,. They had a misaligned print pattern, a pocket seam that wasn't double-stitched or a button that had been sewn on the wrong way round but all ultimately wearable but rejected and destined for the local street markets. Unfortunately, their sources must have placed greater controls or maybe they moved their manufacturing out of Cambodia as the sizes available became more 'Asian' just before the chain stopped trading, maybe a couple of years before Covid hit.
