Step 1 - Purchasing 1:1 replica clothes
● The best place to get high quality clothes tends to be from Chinese sellers
(there are even some cases where the “replica” comes from the same
production line as the authentic). How do you order from said Chinese sellers,
you may ask? To understand how to obtain the clothes, we are going to need
to gain a small understanding of a subreddit called /r/FashionReps. This
subreddit is a heavily active group of people, mainly 12 year old weebs who
try to flex with fake supreme box logo and yeezys, but also a very useful
starting point for your venture into this business. (do not mention selling
replicas as real on this forum as it is looked down on even by people who do it
themselves). The way they purchase the clothes is by buying them off a
Chinese e-commerce site called Taobao (a bit like eBay). Unsurprisingly, the
website is in Chinese and only ships to China/some other Asian countries so
many people overcome this by using the services of an agent to place the
order to a local address in China and send them onwards to you
internationally. Do your own research on which agents to use by lurking
around on the subforum as some appear to be cheaper than others and some
appear to be better for different countries.
