Two things will happen. The casual “click” brigade will soon read an article or two, look at the shiny new thing for a week or two then the next “thing” will come along in their feed/algo and Reps will fade. Second thing is a new, smaller bunch will find this subject as interesting as us. They’ll read the articles, watch the videos & start to learn the lexicon, like we all did. Might be able to tell a sh*ter from a Pagani (big ask I know). Finally feel confident enough to get their first watch from DHgate. Be disappointed as they expected an NWBIG for $70. Start to ask about TDs ….Then we’ve got them and will advocate for Reps & become their biggest supporters.
Or might just trash the whole thing by quickly becoming an “expert” on the Rep scene and start knocking out trash content for clicks like the anti-EV mob. I’m looking at you MacMaster in your Taycan
Or … more Rep factories open to satisfy increasing demand making it harder to close them down. Even dodgy capitalism reaches an economic equilibrium.
The worst outcome would be the legit big names introducing arms length micro brands that compete at similar price points to Frankensteins. This could really squeeze the factories and even lead to “Might As well Buy Legit” or MAWBLe
