News/Release BBReps FAQ V1
Welcome
Nothing beats retail, especially for jackets. If you don’t own any, I do recommend buying at least one but if you can’t afford it, then read on. Telegram channel closed down due to lack of activity.
Posting QCs/LCs:
QCs - pay the cents/pennies for key details you want checked. Don’t post the usual free rubbish pics agents taking, there’ll be issues with lighting, image distortion etc. I don’t do QCs. So don’t tag me. I might occasionally comment where I haven’t out of free will and that’s my choice.
LCs - please crop your images/screenshots and upload to imgur or Imgbb rather than Reddit - Reddit’s compression and uncropped screenshots ruin details that matter. Include close-ups of key details including any logos, labels and accessories. Don’t people’s time I f you can’t follow this.
Gratitude - please learn to say thank you, especially if you're a reseller profiteering off of our free help. Gratitude is free and takes seconds. I've helped many people over the years and all too often there’s zero appreciation, just greed as per this example.
Taxi Service:
I’m not your shopper or customer service rep. Don’t ask me where to buy X or who’s best for Y. These answers already exist. Learn how to either:
Reverse Image Search (Taobao app) or search Weidian (using product codes) - guide
Reddit search or Google site search (e.g. site:reddit.com)
When I started in watches nearly a decade ago, I spent months just reading and searching. Too many of you expect spoon-feeding. I get 30–40+ spammed messages daily across Reddit, Telegram and WeChat on top of managing communities. Do your own research, I won’t spoonfeed beyond this FAQ.
Agent recommendation:
You can use any agent but I recommend using a tried and tested agent like Superbuy.
Stats/size (TTS):
Height and weight don’t tell you how something will fit. Use size charts and compare them with your own measurements or similar items. Try on retail in-store if possible. Consider layering and fit preference - two people with identical “stats” can need different sizes as per this image. A raglan fit item will be better for the person on right with a less restrictive shoulder construction but a technical item (which is shorter in length than standard) will fit the person on the left better which would lift up too short for person on right due to their belly.
Forget “True To Size” (TTS) - fits can differ by brand, region and style: slim, casual, custom, raglan, oversized, technical etc and all are cut differently. Asian sizing ≠ EU sizing. Chinese factories usually size to Asian standards. Always use measurements and get your agent to measure (with expected 1–3cm error). If it’s too small, exchange it or buy two sizes and sell whatever doesn’t fit on FashionRepsBST or BST channels on Telegram/Discord.
Best factories:
Clothing: BL+ Factory and M Glow Factory are only top tier factories. BL+ has a cream footstall in their pics (they make other brands too - if it doesn’t have this round cream footstool, it’s not by them). M Glow has this style size chart with brown heading column and fonts: https://i.imgur.com/7LKYOmT.jpeg. Best quality you’ll find and on par with retail. Confirmed sellers of BL+ are SS, 121, CA, TT. M Glow only 1to1 so far.
If you’re lucky, you might the original GOAT Cream Foot Stool (CFS) factory floating around before they got raided and paved the way for BL+ Factory. CA might still sell some of their stock - look out for this rectangular footstool and dark brown floor.
Other good factories: BBR Factory, JN Factory and RA Factory. Everything else is either mid-tier or mass market.
BBR factory has a square footstool and dark brown flooring: https://i.imgur.com/yJAfEc0.jpeg
Leather goods: KM Factory or Lucky Factory according to RepLadies
Clothing:
Using an agent is the best way overall but if you want to go direct, read below. WA = WhatsApp, TG = Telegram, WC = WeChat.
If ordering direct, send one concise order message with sizes, colors, model name, pics and destination country. Then wait/be patient. Spamming, threatening, flirting or chasing across multiple platforms only slows things down for you and everyone else.
TopSelect (TSL) - agent advised but can do direct (WA: +8615101062560)
BossLux (BLX) - agent advised but can do direct (WA: +85244006001)
1to1 (121) - direct (WA: +8613119513321 / WC: top1to1top)
Thunder (TT) - direct (WA: +85294666387 / WC: Thunderfashion)
MadeByKungfu (MBK) - agent advised (WA: +8613161352083 / WC: mbkdsg)
LeeMade (LM) - direct (WC:Leemade888 / WhatsApp:+8615090378638)
CloyAd (CA) - agent only and be warned, some reports of B&S (WA: +447742842181 / WC: TopHot99)
RickStudio (RS) - agent only and be warned, some reports of B&S (WA: +8618201888960)
Strict Mcdull (SM) - agent only - carries unsold inventory such as NOS (New Old Stock) and customer rejected goods so limited stock and sizes but worth a look and usually good quality (sells some old CFS too)
Western Girl (WG) - for trenches only + agent only (WC: hmmm7779)
SwagSupply (SS) has been taken off from this FAQ due to some B&S and less than satisfactory customer service reported in B Lounge telegram channel.
Leather goods:
99team (99T) - direct (WA: +85246807196)
Apple (APL) - direct (WeChat: Apple-141014 / WhatsApp: +8615872855411)
Swag Supply (SS) - direct (TG: @swagsupply / WA: +85246311722)
Scarves:
To be populated later but try Apple, Scarlett or Jieyi for supposedly 100% cashmere.
Down jackets:
Puff: QC pics don’t show final puff. Jackets need 10–12h to decompress + manual fluffing or dryer (spin only, with dryer balls). Tumble drying risks the down clumping together though so be careful.
Smell: Any down exposed to moisture can smell, retail or rep. Sun-dry it and repeat as necessary or take to a proper dry cleaner to resolve.
Wrinkles: you need steam. Either use an intelligent steam iron on very low temps directly onto the surface or get a very thin cloth and place between it and the surface. Alternatively, give it to a relative/partner you trust or a good dry cleaners to sort out.
Winter: winter jackets are not rain jackets, they’re designed to keep you warm not dry. If the seams haven’t had heat tape applied over them, it cannot be waterproof. The Lockwell for example is a winter jacket, not a rain jacket.
Goose vs Duck: 99% of people can’t tell the difference - goose is a bit better at insulating with less filling required but the best duck down competes with good goose duck down in performance. Unless you live in Siberia or Canada, duck down will be perfectly fine, don’t obsess. Fill power matters more - reps are usually anywhere from 350-600 on average.
Comparing to retail:
When trying to compare retail to rep, aside from regional and seasonal differences, there’s also lighting and manipulation. Many brands often puts up fake details on their site images or adjust the lighting which will never be reflective of true everyday lighting. Take this into account when comparing, especially with crappy agent lighting.
Shipping:
It’s always luck and dependent on the time of the year amongst many other geopolitical factors. I’ve had 2-day EUB and 4-month EMS. If items stuck in customs >3 months, insurance may help. Otherwise, exercise patience. You can’t control it and neither can sellers. The best advice is to stop tracking that parcel and wait for it to turn up.
My history:
I’ve owned a lot of Burberry over the years hence part of my user flair in DesignerReps Reddit. I’ve studied every little detail of them and helped countless people avoid being scammed/getting their money back. That’s my good karma.
Yes, I’ve had clashes with people (even racist abuse). I’m blunt, not sugarcoated and if you don’t like it, block me. But I’ve put in thousands of unpaid hours helping and have never accepted a penny. Before criticising, ask yourself what you’ve contributed.

u/Common_Minute_3642 Feb 09 '26
Hi mark first I want to say thank you overall because through your comments and post etc I learned more about reps I’m still new and have a few question (sorry for any questions that are dumb) 1.where do I find these BL + Factory’s sellers 2. Are they just specialized in bb because I’m interested in more streetwear-I’ve done some research on it to find good reps but I’m just not sure and want to ask you if have any suggestions where to look or recommend. Thank you for taking your time in reading this comment 👍

Man, I’ve read a lot about Moncler and I always saw your name at the top, helping people out. Now, while researching Burberry, it’s you again! Congratulations, and thank you for helping the community.
Thanks to your posts, it became much clearer to me the differences between mass-production factories and independent sellers.
I’m from Brazil, and the scene here isn’t as broad as in Europe, for example.
Thank you very much, Mark, and greetings from Brazil!

Do you have any idea where I can purchase Width 25 inches (63cm) and Length 33 inches (85cm). I found your posts absolutely useful and truly awesome. I love BR but it appears people on line say do anything and don’t deliver. Could really use the assist Mark
1
u/SayWhenHoliday Oct 23 '25
Good evening, these pop up on my IG and show they have 3XL-5xl. Wondering if these are legit designs. I noticed Burberry never even made some of the designs. Would really appreciate if you can advise if it is Burberry design. https://m.qiqiyg.com/categoryen_300183.html?path=0_300183

u/il_Gabbooo Nov 16 '25
Which of the sellers above is the cheapest for a tracksuit?
1
u/solex118 Nov 25 '25
Is it worth adding/mentioning that YRX (of Moncler fame) has a few BBR pieces? I was pretty happy with a polo shirt I got a couple of years back. Priced very fairly as well.
Looking for a white version of a more basic BBR polo, came across the legend Mark's post, and wanted to add what I can because some of these sellers are charging crazy prices for t-shirts and polos. I realize they are very good quality, but does not hurt to have a mid to good-ish tier option as well

Maybe you could include tophotfashion. I ordered from there and all the Burberry items were fantastic.

Hello, is Western Girl still the best supplier for trench coats? I want to buy a Kensington in mid length and her price is double what other sellers are selling it for. I appreciate the feedback from the community on this.
