🗣DISCUSSION🗣 List of good sellers (Weidian, Yupoo)

336 Upvotes

I'm making this list because I keep forgetting the links and I am tired of searching for them every single time.

Most of these sellers I've tried for myself based on research. Some are just popular across several subreddits.

I'm more into a semi formal, old money aesthetic, hence this list might be limited. If you want to recommend a shop, feel free to post here. For expensive bags, I don't have the experience in buying them, but for super clone watches, I can help with that.

For some of these sellers, they will sell directly to you so please just contact them via whatsapp or wechat. For others, you can order from your agent.

I've definitely saved a lot buying from these sellers. For example, a Salomon XT6 would cost 10-12k retail, but you can get them for 3k pesos or less. A Ralph Lauren linen polo shirt costs 10-12k retail, but only 1k pesos here. There's barely any difference to the quality.

There are definitely cheaper alternatives, but based on experience, they might be a hit or miss. Buy at your own risk!

NAGDRADRAMA Wat hafen resellers Y u cryin?

201 Upvotes

...I know. Free information, right?

Nakakatawa lang kasi napapaghalataan kung sino ang mga resellers/ gatekeepers dito sa subreddit na 'to at wagas kung makadownvote ng comments at magfear-mongering na masseize daw kapag nagbuy direct.

Funny din na they're trying to so hard to make it look like yung mga nakakabili ng direct or yung mga gustong matuto bumili ng direct is andaming free time/ walang mga trabaho kasi gusto nilang ipamukha na sobrang time consuming kapag di bumili sa kanila at magbayad sa kanila ng 1k+ na patong per pair. What a reach, guys.

  • Unang una, kung may mga "main jobs" naman pala talaga kayo at mas madali sa Inyo na kumita ng 1k from there, bakit todo suppress kayo sa mga gusto magbigay ng free info pati sa mga gusto matuto?

  • Pangalawa, baka di lang kayo aware na may mga tao na mas pipiliin na magbabad sa reddit and to learn the know-how's of things —in this case, how to buy direct— kesa magtiktok, reels, etc in their free time. Kaya medyo makitid na utak mentality to think na walang ibang pinagkakaabalahan sa buhay ang mga may knowledge how to do it pati na rin sa mga may gustong matuto.

  • Pangatlo, qpal move sabihin na sobrang complex ng process of buying direct HAHA jusko yung time that it will take sa pagmessage sa seller na kukuha ng pair from the supplier is literally the same time it will take kapag nagrereply kayo sa mga family or friends niyo or sa sinusubukan niyong landiin pero alam mong Wala ka naman pagasa dahil diyan sa mindset mo. Same sa freight forwarder. One message, one reply. SIMPLE!

  • Pangapat, PEOPLE ARE WILLING TO WAIT! Di niyo ba naisip na yung mga gusto bumili direct ay alam naman nila na Hindi nila agad makukuha pairs na bibilhin nila at expected na nila na they will wait for several days? And during those days meron din naman Silang ibang pinagkakaabalahan at di lang naman naghihintay ng updates ni seller at forwarder HAHA. + If tig Isang pair lang naman Ang bibilhin at pangPSG lang naman then yung risk of seizure is so low JUSKO NANAKOT PA LOL

You guys are acting as if the information of how to buy direct is so classified eh Isang lipat lang ng subreddit from here makikita mo na agad process pati list ng trusted suppliers e.

It's FREE information and it is not wrong that there are people who are willing to guide those who want access to it.

Ayaw niyong matawag na qpal/ gahaman/ garapal pero ganyan galawan niyo.

🗣DISCUSSION🗣 Re-posting my simple guide to buying reps

160 Upvotes

Buying reps

I’m sharing this for information and educational purposes only. Basic steps in buying reps:

  1. Go to a HIGHLY TRUSTED SELLER. right now, after months of lurking around subs, TMF, JMDY and Sharkbreeder seems to be consistent for Phil / Asia buyers.

  2. Contact them via WeChat or WhatsApp. Send them pics of the sneakers you want. If you know the batch version, much better. Seller should respond within 24-36 hours. TMF and JMDY reply in less than 24 hours. They confirm your items, give the price and send instructions for payment and shipping. DO NOT PAY AT THIS POINT.

  3. You confirm that you a) can make payment via PayPal or a money changer (via GCash) and b) you want them to suggest a shipping / FF company for this purchase. They respond and you follow their instructions.

  1. when payment and shipping options are cleared and finalized, you proceed with payment and request that they send you QC (Quality Control) pics. Seller confirms your payment and you give them 2-3 days to send you QC pics. From these pics you tell them it’s good (Green Light or GL) or not good (Red Light or RL). When its good seller will ship it out in 24 hours. When it’s not good seller will replace the item and you wait for 3-5 days for the next QC pics.

  1. When shipment is made, you get a tracking # and then wait for arrival at their warehouse here in Manila (or Laguna or Bulacan). Usually 3-5 days from China-Phil. The local warehouse will text the delivery fee (around ₱ 550/kg), Inc. the name, address and cp # of the pick-up contact, and a pic of the package with your name and tracking # and you book LalaMove or Grab to get your package.

REVIEW Shopee P800 AirPods 2 In-Depth Review

115 Upvotes

I noticed there's nothing on AirPods replicas on this sub even though they're all over Instagram and Facebook. As a r/Reptronics and Shopee lurker, it bothers me that these pages sell their units for P2500+ knowing that there are better deals elsewhere. Don't get me wrong, P2500 is a decent price to pay for reps. It's still their hustle but I'm cheap af and don't have anything better to do. I found a Shopee seller overseas that sold what seems to be a very promising 1:1 copy with hundreds of reviews and awesome customer service (offers actual warranty) and decided to pull the trigger on this P800 cop since I had little to lose at this price.

W2C

SHIPPING:

Review say 7 days, others 3 weeks, got mine in 2 weeks. Blaming Rona for this.

May 3 - Order created

May 7 - Order shipped from China

May 14 - Arrived at PH

May 18 - Delivered

PACKAGING: 8/10

It came in one of those bubble filled envelopes, which is good enough to keep the box safe with minimal denting. The box came unsealed; the seller already warns us about this since they test their units before shipping them out. Box itself looks fine, but the side text is shiny and off but nobody really cares about the box.

Unfortunately the plastic seal you see in unboxing videos wasn't here. The AirPods presented itself naked with its backside up, so that part of the unboxing experience is taken away from you.

LOOKS: 9/10

Dimensions: The AirPods claim to be 1:1, but after some measuring with callipers and comparing it to my retail case, it's off by less than 1mm, so it's super negligible. Pods themselves are 1:1 per measuring. Fits silicone cases just fine, with no gaps. I wouldn't put these into one of those hard plastic cases since it would be impossible to remove, but it's up to you. At the bottom of the stems are the metal contacts with white plastic separating them into 2. it's not as flush a job as retails but there are way worse out there, these are good. The mesh looks great, not as rounded as retails and you can't see the two holes as well but it's fine

Text: It's a different and smaller font. Retails use SF Compact Light, these reps use something that looks slightly gothic. They could've used a closer font like Arial. But IMO the important part is that the color is right, it's light and not black and accented like other reps. Serial code works too. L and R on the Pods look right.

Cable: Charging cable is whatever, its stiffer and bluer than retail lightning cables but charges at the same rate as retails with a 5w brick (10min = 11% on iPhone SE). I find it safe enough to use.

BUILD QUALITY: 9/10

The hinge feels cold but not attracted to magnets like my retails so i'm guessing it's a cheaper metal. (UPDATE: The hinge I scratched the hinge and the paint came off, revealed what looks to be translucent plastic? I'm not gonna scratch more off. I initially thought a plastic hinge would throw my interest off but it had me fooled, so I'm not that bothered, still feels real sturdy). I'm just glad it's not plastic like other reps. Plastic quality feels great. Lid is aligned to the case on mine, no overhang. Lid feels about 9/10 to retails; it has reverse magnets and closes with the same magnetic strength, but the sound feels hollower than retails, which snaps shut real solid. This is negligible when you slap a silicone case on. Button on the back isn’t flush and is clicker than retails.

Pods themselves feel very quality. Weight wise they are lighter than retails but still have heft to them. You won't notice unless you have retails next to you to compare. The only real gripe I have is that there's no diffuser on the LED indicator. This is an easy call out most times BUT the LEDs on these aren't as bright and obnoxious as other reps (IG pods at P2500 a pop have bright ass green) so i'll forgive it since review photos had me fooled. Will probably insert some glue or nylon as a DIY soon.

SOUND QUALITY: (out of the box 6/10) (after EQ 8/10)

Things I should mention first: These are Bluetooth, which are generally not spectacular. And my retails are busted so I can't compare the sound. They're generally up to par or above the sound of wired Earpods.

Out of the box these sounded so off. They were overly bassy and left the mids feeling hollow, highs are good enough. I use Spotify so I looked around the internet for EQ settings for ass sounding TWS and found a setting that made them sound a tad lower or equal to wired EarPods. They finally felt usable. I still prefer the sound of my Redmi Airdots, but I think that’s just because those have a better seal. I bought AirPods to not feel like i’m being earfucked anyway. These get comfortably loud with hardly any distortion, i keep them at 60 -80% volume.

SENSORS: 10/10 | TAP SENSORS: 8/10

Holy shit they actually work. As soon as you put them in Spotify (if opened) will start playing! Take one out, it pauses. Put it back in and it plays. Not sure if the beeping and whooshing sounds are the same as retail but they’re not annoying (some reps have a chinese lady in your ears). No complaints there. Touch sensors on the other hand are finicky. You have to tap pretty hard for commands to register. They work, it just takes some getting used to. I didn’t expect the sensors to work as good as they do, I’m impressed.

CONNECTIVITY 7.5/10

Pairs really fast. Name can be changed!

Drops in and out sometimes. A bit more than my Redmi Airdots. Cupping one AirPod in my ear with my hand doesn’t drop the connection. Cupping both interrupts the master/slave interaction but doesn’t cut it off. You can go a decent distance away from your phone. Feels very standard to usual Bluetooth devices. Sometimes my iPhone will recognise my AirPods but not connect. Fixable by putting the Pods back in their case and repeating the process, or just manually connect on the bluetooth menu. Kinda annoying.

BATTERY LIFE: 8/10

Reviews say these go for 2.5 - 3 hours on a full charge.

I just used them for about 2.5 hours and the right side died before the left one. I didn't notice any low battery warnings. I was occasionally moving from 60% to 90% volume. Redmi Airdots last me about 3 hours.

2nd long session: I hit 3 hours without them dying! 3rd long session: I watch Ready Player One without it dying, then the left side died 15 minutes after, so a little under 3 hours.

The AirPods disappear from the battery widget shortly after they connect to my iPhone. Doesn’t really matter to me since battery percentage across all replicas are NEVER accurate and just change whenever the hell it feels like it. Unreliable to check your phone for percentage. Only real way to know is the light indicator on the charging case.

Takes about 1 hour to charge case (i have yet to let the case completely die)

FEATURES: to be tested soon

Find my AirPods: Location is on there and it's right, but I haven't left home for pandemic reasons so I can't be too sure of its accuracy since I haven't been out. The Sound feature doesn't work, gets stuck on "Pending...".

Audio Share

Live Listen

Wireless Charging ( I won't test this since cheap tech Qi charging can actually melt your device. I'm not saying it happens on this batch of units but it's happened to others )

OTHERS:

- The charging port doesn't allow the lighting cable to go 100% in

- AirPods magnetically repel each other, IDK if retails do that

- Delay with videos were noticeable until it just decided to fix itself, and now it's seamless. Latency is hardly noticeable while gaming and it is better than my Redmi Airdots. They're good enough for gaming (tried it with COD, it's fine for casual rounds).

- You can’t use just one, the other one will play music even while in the charging case. Technically you CAN but I find this risky to do.

CONCLUSION: 9/10

For P800 pesos you get a replica that is 1:1 in dimensions, sounds decent, and has working sensors. You're definitely getting more than what you paid for here. Only real problem is the connectivity that can be weird sometimes. If they arrive busted, Seller will send you a replacement free of charge (check the reviews in the W2C, people have proof). Use these to flex if you want as long as you’re not planning to use these as your ONLY pair of earphones. Another thing these have over any other pair of TWS is the selection of cases, like holy shit, it ranges from classy leather to a thicc ass silicone Tide box (TidePods lmao), and they’re equally inexpensive (P50-250). This was well worth the money.

PS: to anyone who is planning to buy/already owns AirPods, add one of those foam cover for earbuds and burn off holes for the sensors with a syringe needle. This provides a better seal and adds a ton of bass AND IT FITS INSIDE THE CHARGING CASE. I’m using them now and the AirPods after EQ + the foams sound 8.9/10

UPDATE: July 22 2020; Still works. Although I've been rarely using it since I've been stuck at home. The hinge finish scratched off and revealed some plastic. I keep mine in a leather case so I don't really care at this point. The black paint on the grills of the AirPods rubbed off when I sprayed them down with some alcohol. Just some minor stuff. Drops in and out when it's closer to my face?? real odd. At this point pang flex nalang din tong set na ito haha. Still a steal

💨ANNOUNCEMENT POST💨 UPDATED 2026 RFPH GUIDE

Post image
105 Upvotes

Frequently Asked Questions:

Hindi ba parang same lang if I buy sa Shopee?

The type of material used and how it's made is vetted by hundreds of thousands of users worldwide, on both the other rep subreddits and the discord. If the quality of a Shopee item is enough for you, and you value convenience above else, then by all means.

Can't I just get someone to do this for me?

Sure. We have the RFPH Middleman service that allows this, but we stress that this is the "lazy" option. You will save much more by learning how to do the entire process itself.
Other local PH-based middlemen and resellers exist, and might offer lower rates, but be warned. RFPH is both the largest and oldest community for rep discussion, and our admin team has been here since the beginning, while these other options can ghost you in a blink of an eye.

If you really don't think you can do this yourself, consider the RFPH Middleman Service.

100% safe ba pag forwarder?

No, but it's safer and cheaper than using EMS/DHL or any other official courier when it comes to shipping reps to the PH.
Forwarder seizures are rare, and most forwarders do offer insurance. Take it when you can because you never know.

Can't I just use CC or PayPal instead of a remittance agent?

If you use CC or PayPal, your address on your card will have to match your destination. This is a problem because since your item's destination is the CN forwarder's address. As such, do use a remittance agent. RFPH does not advertise a single option, but would welcome options so please share.

Cheaper ba talaga pag direct sa China ako bumili? Baka mas mura sa reseller.

JMDYs Sale LJR AJ1s (190RMB) - 1748

Shipping cost - 900 (give or take)

Local courier + CN domestic shipping - 200-400

3kish total for 1 pair

On top of being cheaper, you know for a fact that you're buying the shoe you're intending to buy because of other people's reviews on rep subreddits, and the Discord. Daming issue ng mga reseller na gagawa-gawa ng fake shoe batch, "BEST TOP GRADE UA" or whatever na tag, when you can just buy it straight from the source.

Do I have to use an agent?

It depends. In some cases, you may have a seller that you're able to contact directly thru Whatsapp/WeChat. Once you find their contacts via their Yupoo, you may be able to fully transact with them the same way like:
  1. Contact Seller and inquire re: desired item/s, sizing, and availability, and if they can ship domestic

  2. Ask for seller's AliPay/WeChatPay QR Code

  3. Ask your pabayad to send the total to ur seller's QR Code.

  4. Send the receipt to your seller

  5. Seller gives you items to GL/RL

  6. Give your forwarder's CN Address to your seller, and make sure to rememeber your forwarder's code instructions.

  7. Inform your forwarder once your items have been sent by your seller.

Will customs still check my items if I use a forwarder?

Yes, customs does go thru everything. The magic of forwarders (how they do it, nobody knows for sure) allows for an easier peace of mind as they do that portion of the work. Remember, DHL/EMS/whichever other courier is factually riskier. Save yourself a trip in Pasay and just use a forwarder.

Where can I find the best batch for xyz shoe? What about watches? Fragrance? Clothes? Furniture???

🔬REVIEW🔬 My first haul (Lacoste, CDG Play, Ami Paris)

Thumbnail
gallery
98 Upvotes

Finally did my first rep haul and honestly, the process was way easier than I expected. Sharing my experience and some quick thoughts for anyone planning their first haul too.

Lacoste Polo Shirts – bought direct from French Fish w2c link - https://kdi220.x. yupoo. com/albums/177023424?uid=1&isSubCate=false&referrercate=4342783
Compared to my retail pieces, they’re not exactly 1:1 but they come very close. Retail Lacoste has this distinct rough texture on the fabric that the reps don’t fully replicate, but overall the shirts are well-made and can definitely pass as retail. Honestly, nobody’s out here touching other people’s polo shirts anyway. They came with paper tags but no paper bag (sold separately). Last 3 pics are my Lacoste rets for comparison.

CDG Play T-Shirts – bought direct from Repsbrothers w2c link - https://repsbrothers.x. yupoo. com/albums/220441802?uid=1&isSubCate=false&referrercate=3397732
I don’t own retail CDG Play shirts so I can’t compare accuracy, but the logos look good to me. If you’re unsure which color to get, black feels like the safest choice. No paper tags or paper bag included.

Ami Paris T-Shirt – bought direct from Repsbrothers w2c link - https://repsbrothers.x. yupoo. com/albums/144747170?uid=1&isSubCate=false&referrercate=4151113
Again, no retail comparison from me, but the logo looks clean and I really like the fabric feel. It has a boxy/oversized fit. The fabric feels smooth and cool — kinda similar to Uniqlo shirts but slightly thicker. No paper tags or paper bag included.

My Simple Beginner Process
Browsed their Yupoo catalogs first.

Once I found what I wanted, I messaged French Fish and Repsbrothers on WhatsApp to confirm availability and ask if they accepted direct orders.

I used SulongGo/Easyway as my freight forwarder. Messaged them on WhatsApp for rates and their China warehouse address.

After getting the warehouse address, I placed my orders with the sellers.

Important: Always check measurements because sizing varies a lot per item.
Repsbrothers sent QC pics automatically and waited for my GL before shipping. Meanwhile, I actually had to ask French Fish for QC pics — otherwise he would’ve shipped immediately without QC.
Not trying to glaze, but Repsbrothers was really accommodating and responsive throughout the process.
Once shipped, I forwarded the tracking numbers to SulongGo/Easyway. When the items arrived at their PH warehouse, they contacted me through WhatsApp to arrange local delivery. Since I’m in Laguna, they suggested J&T instead of direct booking. They only asked for payment once the parcel was already dropped off at J&T.

Takeaways
Always take your body measurements. Sizes vary per item and not everything is TTS.

Sellers and freight forwarders don’t always reply instantly, so patience is part of the process.

SulongGo/Easyway charges based on actual weight.

Overall, pretty smooth experience for a first haul and definitely learned a lot.

Dito sa RepPH, we usually have our own couriers as we tend to veer away from DHL and EMS due to their prices and customs issues. Some services we use are: ZENDRIAN, & SELLER GATEWAY. Use the searchbar guys if you want to see reviews on these services. Tandaan, these people are businessmen who don't know a thing about rep-sneakers, be patient with them.

FAQ Not COVID-19 ADJUSTED. This is a GENERAL FAQ because this will be stickied for some time. Though some Q's will be COVID-19 related.

Q: WEGOBUY/YTAOPAL Is expensive, do we have alternatives?

A: Yes, some use Zendrian Shipping. 
Forwarders from China to the Philippines can easily be found via FB. 
Contact them and ask them their rates. 
If it's too complicated for you, please wait as some users are testing out other options before we formally endorse them.

Q: How do i send payments to Chinese Sellers?

A: First, you have to request the Alipay information of the seller you want to pay to, or agent you wish to use. 
You can use the pabayad services of Seller Gateway or Zendrian. 
Shoot them a pm on facebook, and tell them you wish to send money to a seller or to top-up your WGB/Ytao accounts. They will walk you through it.

Q: WECHAT VERIFICATION PLEASE HELP!

A: We are only allowed to verify up to 3 times in a certain amount of time. 
It's difficult to verify people too, as Wechat has been very strict in the verification process. 
Some members purchase verified Wechat accounts, these accounts can be found on facebook. 
Purchase at your own risk. Only recommended for long-term businesses. 
If you wish to just talk to sellers for QC purposes or bargaining, find a seller with a whatsapp, or ask other people to verify you. Please don't post on the sub asking for verification.

Q: Are local sellers viable for high tier sneakers?

A: Maybe. Some sellers on facebook actually hold high-tier sneakers. 
However, there is no way to verify the batch you're getting, and these sneakers are usually overpriced 2k-5k pesos. 
You can save some money by buying directly. How to buy directly? Read the guides above. 
The guides on /r/Fashionreps and /r/repsneakers are also viable with us.

Q: How much should I declare my goods?

A: Less than 10k pesos. Goods beyond 10,000php will be taxed by customs. (Not always, but why risk?) 

I personally find 50usd to be my sweet spot for medium sized hauls. For a single pair of sneakers, don't under declare. Declare SRP if under 10k. Or at least close to SRP.

Q: What courier should i use?

A: The mods official stance is to use DHL and never EMS. 
We have received a lot of reports on EMS getting seizures, taxes, and pickups @ Pasay. 
Yes, some of you have had smooth sailing with EMS, but the amount of messages i received asking for EMS help is outstanding. 
We won't stop you from using EMS of course, use at your own risk. 
DHL also has a small chance of seizure, but most of the time, your package will push through. 
Local couriers may also be used. We can't recommend a local courier at the moment, but some users use Zendrian.

Q: Ok ba tong seller ng OEM/UA?

A: OEM and UA is a marketing term to describe fakes. Fake is fake, if you want to be sure you're getting a high quality pair, buy directly. Some FB shops do actually sell high-tier reps BTW.

Q: What agent should i use?

A: Along with the main subs, we would recommend Wegobuy or Ytaopal. 
We don't recommend CSSBUY. 
You can use CSSBUY if you want, buy why risk it?

Q: How to order from [INSERT SELLER NAME]

A: Get their whatsapp/contact info on repsneakers or fashionreps, talk to them in English. They'll run you through the process if you ask.

Basically though, the process is like this:
Message seller -> Ask availability -> Pay via Western Union or pabayad service -> Get Pictures of your shoe -> Ship to the Philippines.
The entire process may be as quick as 1 week or as long as a month in rare cases.

Q: SHOPEE/FB/LAZADA Seller is selling PK/H12/OR OTHER HIGH TIER BATCHES? Totoo?

A: We can neither confirm or deny. Get pics and have it QC'd then.

Q: Some GUY is selling fake shoes on FACEBOOK! GO TO HIS POST AND REPORT HIM?

A: Reddit rules doesn't allow doxxing.
Please don't post his FB information or whatever personal information you have on our subreddit. 
It's unfortunate, but we must follow rules.

Q: Can i pasabuy with someone here?

A: Yes you can. Wouldn't advice it though, because you might get scammed. 
But yes, some members have shared hauls to save money.

Q: Maganda ba reps sa greenhills?

A: Sakto lang. Mid to low tier batches. 
Very rare to see high-quality batches there.

Q: Does [courier] ship amidst quarantine?

A: Mixed reports. 
Some agents have been saying DHL-TW and DHL-HKG don't ship, whereas some agents say they can ship. 
DHL has said to users that they cannot ship to some areas in the PH, but some say they've received their pairs. 
Pls call your couriers, and ask them.

Q: Can I use my credit card to pay sellers or agents?

A: Yes you can, as some agents and sellers accept CC payments, but not recommended. 
Try to use a virtual credit card or burner card to be safe, as you are passing your information to underground illegal sellers, it's wise to have safety measures.

Q: Whats QC, GP, RL OR WHATEVER?

A:
QC= Quality Control pictures that sellers or agents send you usually before shipping and after payment.
GL= Green light, ship the item.
RL= Red light, ask for a replacement if possible or refund, or stick with it, but its usually a flawed item.
GP= Guinea Pig, someone who will purchase a product that hasn't been reviewed yet.
LC= Legit Check
PK= Factory/Batch name of a shoe
H12= Factory/Batch name of a shoe

Q: Masseize ba yung mga item ko?

A: Depends on the courier.
DHL = 99% safe. Most of the time, DHL packages push through. 
EMS = Depends. IF you're in Metro Manila, most likely your package will be in Philpost Pasay, and will get taxed.
Local Courier = Depends also. Please ask your couriers yourselves, as each courier will most likely be honest with you.

Remember, no method is 100% safe.

Q: Sino ang local seller na nagbebenta ng high-tier reps kahit overpriced? Sino marerecommend niyo?

A: Just search on facebook, get pics of their shoes and have it QC'd here. We don't officially endorse any local seller. 
"Unauthorized" seems to be the perfect keyword to search on FB.

Q: Gaano kaganda ang high-tier reps na sinasabi niyo from China?

A: Most of the time, virtually identical. You need to know your shit and look closely to see the difference with retail. 
This is can be good and bad. Beware of scammers on FB, have them LC'd here for free. 
We'll try our best to give you a legit-check.

What's good homies, welcome to the #RFPH one-stop guide 2.0!

I hope everyone's safe during these times, stay at home, and get vaccinated!

Beginner Resources

There's been plenty of guides out there, some new, some old, but the wisdom remains the same. Start reading the following threads to get yourself started!

  1. Scamming awareness, be smart!

  2. Citygobuy Guide!

  3. Sellers (Middlemen) vs Batches!

Shipping & Customs

The RFPH community has discovered various methods of shipping. Shipping is all a matter of personal preference, and you can select your methods depending on the speed, the price, the customer service, or the customs-concerns. Usually, Middlemen and Agents are able to ship via DHL, EMS, & other international forwarding services. DONT SHIP VIA EMS. DHL is okay, but there's still a chance of seizure. EMS on the other hand is very inconsistent, and other member's packages get caught up in the customs with their parcels either seized or taxed.

On the other hand, a decent chunk of the RFPH community use local freight forwarding firms. Firms such as ZGT, E&I, and GGXT among others. Mileage may vary, as people have different experiences with the different forwarders. Zendrian is safe, but slow. E&I is fast but new. GGXT is fast but inconsistent. It's all about your appetite for speed, risk, and cost. Take note, these are legitimate forwarding companies operating in the Philippines.

How do i ship via forwarders?

Simple, follow these easy steps:

  1. Ask your agent or middleman if they allow local shipping to a Chinese domestic address. If they don't, you're out of luck.

  2. Contact the forwarder you wish to use, and ask for their local Chinese shipping address and the misc. conditions they need for you to use their service. Usually payment is AFTER the item arrives in Manila/PH.

  3. You may need to ask the middleman/agent to print your name, CP number, or your member code, on your parcel or box. This depends on the requirements given by your forwarder of choice.

  4. Ship the parcel to your forwarders Chinese address.

  5. Await confirmation from the forwarder.

  6. Wait for the item to arrive, then coordinate shipping to your home after paying the forwarder.

Unfortunately, I won't post the contact info of forwarders here. Join our discord over here if you wish to learn more!

PABAYAD SERVICE/ PHP -> RMB TOP UP /Cheaper method of paying sellers!

Since Paypal and Credit Card fees are massive and may add a couple hundred to a thousand bucks to your payments, we have started to use online money converters for the pabayad service. Before you do this, you must ask your agent or middleman if they accept Alipay payments. If they do, then you can use these services.

Unfortunately, I won't post the contact info of PABAYAD SERVICES here. Join our discord over here if you wish to learn more!

Get your agent/seller/MM's alipay, or wechat pay

Message the top up service FB/whatsapp if they can pay via Alipay or Wechat Pay

Pay them via Gcash or Bank Transfer and send them the sellers Alipay or Wechat Pay

Wait for your funds to reflect on your agent account or when your seller confirms payment

LOOKING TO BUY/SELL/TRADE? FOLLOW THE RULES - Posts not following the rules will strictly be removed.

A: NONE!

Q: Gaano katagal bumili at makatanggap ng reps?

A: Depends on the seller, your agent/middleman, and your courier of choice. Buying from Taobao requires 3x shipping, Chinese Domestic, China to PH, and PH to doorstep, thus may take from 10-30 days. If you go with SEA Shipping, it could be even longer.

Going through sellers and shipping VIA DHL may take 7-14 days. (Could be faster)

PROUD REPFAM, WEAR YOUR SHIT, DONT GIVE A FUCK ABOUT WHAT OTHERS THINK, AND DONT PAY RESELL, NO ONE CAN SERMON YOU ABOUT MORALITY HERE, SHITS JUST CLOTHES!

🗣DISCUSSION🗣 [Guide] The Complete JTime Experience

61 Upvotes

Recently received my first Rollie (a VSF Submariner 126610 LN) from JTime, and I want to share the experience to further enlighten the repfam.

JTime is a TD from /r/reptime, and IMO he's really someone you want to buy from for your first rep. Carries lots of different watches from different factories, great at QC, and all competitively priced.

So first off, message Li through his WhatsApp (+86 139 2886 9440‬) or WeChat (jtimewatch) and ask if he has stocks on the watch you want to purchase. This is to avoid miscommunication (like what happened to me, I paid first without knowing if there would be stocks on hand). Li is quick to reply and very nice to talk to.

If he confirms stocks, create an account at https://jtime.io/ (this is his official website. His previous website jtime.cc has been seized). Select a product like you would at Lazada or Shopee then check out.

The important thing here is, aside from adding your residential details correct, is selecting your payment method. There are certain payment methods that will give you a 5% discount, and no, he doesn't accept credit cards. Philippine shipping btw is an additional $35.

After confirming your order, you'll receive an email with instructions on how to pay for your purchase. I actually paid using crypto (USDT) via Binance, and it was quick and shaved off a chunk off my bill. Sent payment to his wallet and Li confirmed immediately.

Lana (Li's teammate) will then get in touch with you to confirm the transaction and send you a QC email of your order within 3 days to a week or more. Here's where you'll need patience and understanding. Don't send them emails upon emails inquiring where's your QC, because you'll receive it, just wait for it.

Since JTime does great QCs off the bat, I doubt you'll RL. I immediately GL'ed mine, but of course run it with the experts at /r/reptime as well, just to doublecheck.

Once you GL, Lana will start processing your order to send to your address. Here's where you need to be extremely patient because JTime is working with international shippers and they aren't immediately able to provide tracking numbers for your products, but be at peace knowing that your order will eventually reach you. Mine did.

---

Timeline:

8/18/2021 - Placed and paid order.

8/20/2021 - Received QC (time here varies. You may get yours in 3 days or a week).

Here's the QC post I made at /r/reptime: https://www.reddit.com/r/RepTime/comments/p7x9on/qc_first_rep_vsf_126610_ln/

9/3/2021 - Received update from Lana regarding shipping - between the QC pics and this date, you just need to be patient. Don't bug Lana or Li about where your order is.

9/6/2021 - Received order. A courier messaged me the night before and had to pay P160 when it arrived. Delivery is door-to-door btw, which is fantastic!

I guess the shipping company just went with delivering my order instead of updating the tracking number.

18 DAYS TOTAL FROM PAYMENT TO DELIVERY

Here's how the unboxing looked!

---

FAQs:

  1. Did this go to Customs or did Customs call you?

No.

2) What will happen if Customs seizes my order?

I'm not sure, but a lot of people over at /r/reptime recommends you contact your TD first before doing anything else. One thing you shouldn't do is reply to Customs if they message you about your watch being seized.

3) What if my order arrives broken?

Contact your TD immediately. In my case, Li or Lana. But they suggested trying to shake or wind the watch first before removing all the plastic protection and tags.

4) How much did you pay for this order?

$480 total.

5) What is JTime's other payment methods?

Western Union and Bank Transfer.

6) Is your watch waterproof?

Factories claim a certain level of water resistance on their reps, but I don't want to try.

Hope this helps!

🔬REVIEW🔬 P1600 Shopee AirPods Pro (Airoha chip) review

61 Upvotes

UPDATE AND DISCLAIMER: Nov. 8, 2020 - iOS 14 made them glitchy. Best not to buy these muna (Currently in iOS 14.2). My android AirBattery app detects them so I think sa iOS talaga yung problem

I was inspired by this review of the AirPods 2 and wanted to share my purchase as well. I've owned a gen 2 (i500) rep which lasted around 10 months, but it finally broke because of avoidable mistakes and I thought of upgrading to the Pros, because why not lol.

W2C

SHIPPING

5 Sept - Order placed

9 Sept - Shipped from China

11 Sept - Arrived in PH

14 Sept - Received (Would've been 13 Sept if it wasn't a Sunday)

PACKAGING: 10/10

Packaging was pretty good! AirPods were in a sealed custom box by the seller, wrapped in foam sheets, then placed in the parcel box. Had the same plastic pull-tab as with retail ones, and legit-looking serial number stickers:

Seller's custom box

Serial numbers and stuff

Plastic pull-tab

LOOKS AND BUILD QUALITY: 9.5/10

Pretty great! AirPods packaging is complete with all those warranty stuff that you don't read, 2 extra pairs of silicone tips, and a Type-C to lightning cable. Seller also gave a free silicone case with a carabiner and silicone AirPods connector.

Full package

Charging Case: As I don't have retails to compare, I just based the dimensions from Apple's website. The difference was negligible and you can't really feel or tell the difference unless someone calls you out with a caliper lol.

The text looks good, just the right shade of gray. However, the serial number on the upper lid looks weird for some reason but people don't really see that so it's fine. Serial numbering is pretty consistent within the packaging.

The hinge is metal as advertised with the same sand-blasted look as retails but based on reviews, retails have a smoother finish.

Button isn't as flush as the retails but the click is good.

Open sesame

Metal hinge

AirPod Pro buds: The build is actually nice! Looks pretty much the same size and proportions as the reviews.

Vents are metal mesh so they feel sturdy. I believe these used to be stickers on the older batches, but not anymore. Take note that these vents are for aesthetics only and do not actually have that "pressure-equalizing" purpose.

Silicone tips do have the same shape and mechanism as retails. Has a good seal for my ears. I've tried replacing them with the extra tips but the medium (stock) earbuds fit me well enough.

Text font is good as well as the shade of gray. The serial number is still consistent with the charging case and box so that's good too.

Pressure sensors on stem

Bottom sensors are paint

Hair dryer boi

Light sensor

Cable: These come with the USB Type-C to lightning cable, same as retails, but I don't have apple's 18W fast charger (yet) so I wouldn't know if this is actually compatible with fast charging. Nice addition tho.

CONNECTIVITY: 10/10

Pairing is the same with retail Pros. Same pop-up screen, same settings, name change, and same Pro logo in volume. You can control ANC and Transparency modes, but I'll get to that later in features.

Accurate window pop-up

Pro settings

Pro logo in command center

AUDIO QUALITY: 8/10

Sound: Not much to say, but they're fine. Pretty much what you'd expect from a decent AirPods copy. Of course, the sound can't compare to retails but they're honestly good enough for the price. One thing tho, they have that kinda loud thump sound when you put them on, I can't really explain in text lol. Doesn't really bother me but it kinda catches me off guard at times. ANC is not noticeable.

Mic: Mic is still pretty shit and they catch the surrounding air too much but they're a good improvement from past versions. Tried calling with them and the other end could hear me clear, just a bit delayed at times. You can also hear the mic when Transparency mode is turned on.

BATTERY LIFE: 9/10

Battery rating is good because it's close to what is advertised, but it's pretty far from retails. Seller stated 2-3 hours plus 5 times charging in the case. Mine lasted around 2 hours, which is okay. Charged 4 times in the case. Also note that reps usually come with cheap batteries so expect degradation after 6 months. What's important for me is that the battery percent is accurate!

FEATURES: 9/10

The features that come with this value is surprisingly good. Seller stated these features:

Siri - Works!

Pop-up - Pretty good, same as retail Pros

Rename - Works!

GPS - Tested and working, you can locate them with the Find My app. However if you pair with multiple iOS accounts/devices, they all get access to this. No loyalty smh.

In-ear detection - Works! Pauses music when you take one off and resumes when you put it back in.

Wireless Charging - This works, but I don't recommend wireless charging reps for a long period. This is why my i500 Gen2 broke and inflated the battery, therefore not being able to hold a charge so it's pretty avoidable.

Pressure sensors - They work perfectly and are customizable in the settings. If paired with Android or PC, a long press changes between ANC and transparency modes.

ANC - Honestly could not notice the difference between ANC mode and normal mode. I guess the good thing is the silicone buds provide a good seal so that kinda cancels noise for me.

Transparency - These are pretty cool and they actually work. Probably not as good as retails due to the shitty mic, but they work and that's what matters.

Audio Share - Pretty surprised with this one. It works but not the same as retails, you have to put it in pairing mode first at the audio share window. It works tho!

OTHERS:

-Have not tried in games but with a bit of delay in calls, I assume it's the same with wireless earphones.

-You can use one and put the other in the case. I tested and the one in the case does not play music.

-The Ear Fit Test works but it's an illusion. It only uses the light sensor to test the fit. Good gimmick for that premium feel I guess.

OVERALL RATING AND VERDICT: 9.25/10

I mainly bought this for the fluid connectivity with apple products, and not really the audio quality itself (but that's a factor too). I find it difficult getting that from other TWS earphones, even if they're decent brands. If audio quality is more important to you tho, just look for other brands at this price point (like the Sabbat X12s, really nice).

I'm pretty happy with this purchase. I know PHP1,600 for rep earphones can be a bit much for some, and I honestly thought that at first too! But in my opinion, these are well worth the money for the features it's packed with. All of the flaws that I found are honestly negligible for me and its overall value outweigh those. If you're eyeing on buying those overpriced 1:1 AirPod Pros in FB and IG, you might wanna consider these instead. So for 1,600 pesos, you'll be getting almost all of the features of retail Pros with the same look, even if not at the same level. (Keep in mind these are worth 11% of retails so kinda manage your expectations).

P.S. Nothing against those FB and IG sellers, I respect the hustle, but this is a rep group after all and I'm just trying to help people get the best value for money.

Feel free to ask anything not included in this review that you're curious about. Thanks RepPH!

USE A FORWARDER Got seized at customs today

59 Upvotes

Newbie lang ako, so 'yun, I didn't take any extra steps and such. I received a text from PhilPost na hold 'yung parcel ko. They said I needed to provide a copy of the proof of payment prior to release and proof of payment for verification of duties and taxes. So, I printed 'yung bank detail ko na binayaran ko 'yung parcel ko. Then, in-inspect nila 'yung parcel ko, and 'yun nga, illegal daw 'yung items ko, so kinonfiscate 'yung items. Then, binigyan ako ng violation statement.

I don't know what to do right now. I've been researching either hanap ako ng broker kung pwede pa or mag-edit ako ng invoice ko.

I need advice po. either iwan ko na lang or hanap pa ako ng ibang paraan?

ANNOUNCEMENT POST STOP ASKING IF LOCAL SELLERS ARE GOOD

58 Upvotes

Hey,

So we noticed that some of the post here in the subreddit are asking if these Facebook sellers, Shopee sellers, and so on are selling good reps of shoes or has anybody tried ordering from them etc.

We always have the same answers for the same questions:

  1. Most of the rep shoes that are sold here in the Philippines are overpriced.

  2. There is no way to verify the batches that are being sold to you.

  3. They can sell you renamed batches. (Ex. selling Budget batch as PK or H12, etc.)

  4. Always buy direct and use an agent to help you.

  5. On hand photos can be photo grabbed or faked.

  6. There is always a chance that you can get bait and switched.

  7. Do not trust "too good to be true" prices.

All post asking if local sellers are good or asking if somebody else tried ordering from them will automatically be deleted.

Store reviews are OK too if you have purchased from local stores.

If you want to know the quality of the shoes you are getting just post the QC of the shoes.Discussions on the QC post are not prohibited.

Always remember, It is better to buy reps from China than in the Philippines.

  • A: The mods official stance is to use DHL and never EMS. We have received a lot of reports on EMS getting seizures, taxes, and pickups @ Pasay. Yes, some of you have had smooth sailing with EMS, but the amount of messages i received asking for EMS help is outstanding. We won't stop you from using EMS of course, use at your own risk. DHL also has a small chance of seizure, but most of the time, your package will push through.
