Anyone?

Sorry if this is the wrong section...
Well, laying down and navigating on instagram it came full of ads about some online stores on my country (europe) selling replica watches for around 20$...

I mean, of course it is fake, but however I ordered 2 rolexes, 1 hublot and 1 richard mille for around 90$ (including shipping). They came in 2 days at my front door... Again, they are fake as fuck, but man they look so original... I mean its like a 1:1 replica god dammit (I know original watches very good since it is a passion).

However it made me think, where the hell do these guys find these watches? I mean they have to have bought them for 10$ since they are reselling them for 20$, right?

So my question is (has nothing to do with IM) do you know any website that sells this type of product for as low?

Thanks

Either stolen because that seems way too cheap even for replicas or from AliExpress hidden links. Google it.

If they are selling it for $20 they likely either received it for free or paid a fixed sum for a bunch of watches where the average price for each watch may add up to about $1 or so. For the calibre of watches you mentioned I don't know any website selling for so cheap. You're probably better off asking around in local marketers in your area (just be careful how you word it or they may think you're undercover lol).

In Dubai UAE you can buy them in bulk cheaper then $10 per piece, as they buy them per kilo! Maybe even cheaper in China. Where were they shipped from?

Thay are replicas, not originals.

I really dont know where they got them from....


I am not sure if i can post this type of things here (so please @BassTrackerBoats if this is not allowed remove it) but you can check instagram pages like "Blej.Ora", "Ardi.Luxury", "UnikShopping.Kosova" for example...

Doesn't mean they weren't stolen. lol

Who would offer such cheap watches even if replicas? The parts probably cost quite a bit and then there's labour. There's exploitation going on somewhere in the process. That being said if the items you got are good quality it goes to show how these designer companies exploit the market.

Who the hell steals a replica
I dont know what the hell goes on here, but i ordered those just to see, and as i said they look good... for sure they are not real because i took the hublot to a friend of mine that has a fisical shop and sells originals and he told me they are fake as fuck but look very legit.
I was wondering because if there is a place to get them for 1$ as someone said here this is a nice reselling option... at least as i see it

There is no chance they would look legit, they would look like originals but will have many major flaws, there are great replicas for luxury watches for $400 and that's cheap, cause imagine how much would Rolex's and Hublot's parts would cost, it would be shitty replicas which costs $6-$12 on DHGate or on aliexpress or on other Chinese markets,

So I would say you don't know anything about luxury watches and thats why u think they look legit AF, cause there is no chance to look even similar and they won't even would have legit movements and they won't be water resistant and ETC and ETC...

For as much as i know luxury watches i can tell you that i've seen a real hublot in hand and still have the replica i got... in the first impressions and first look? Yes they look so freaking identical... the fake one i got is automatic, with all movement (like date day etc) working with a separate button and it got me more than 24h of working with 1 charge. Only when i took it to a real shop of luxury watches and opened it the employee there told me that the movements are not hublot originals. Everything else was identical... the buttons, the opened back while watching the movements work etc... and yes, it is water resistant since i've tried it.
As for the rolex, in an easy eye it looks legit, when i got it in hand it just felt lighter thats all.
I'll have too see that RM i ordered since i havent unboxed it yet.

Again, i dont promote fake watches and for sure they are fake, no need to repeat that. But my question consisted on where do people find it so cheap, even if it is a replica.

Anyway, thanks for you response

I'd be interested as well.

Probably some real networking needed to get them.

The reason I suggested asking around in real life is because nobody would publicly sell such stuff for so cheap as it's too good a business model to make public. You'd have to befriend some dodgy people and that's another rabbit hole in itself.

Oh those rabbit holes, so many of them.

Well i guess that the theory that they buy them in bulk (lets say 100 different fake watches for 200-300$) is more acceptable... just my opinion.
It made me so curious, because i've seen Aliexpress or other large supliers from china and they dont really offer that low... sa basicly i guess there ia another source. Plus the watches on DHGate say "Takoshi" in the face of the watch (Takoshi is just ironic cause i dont know what they say) but these ones i got really say HUBLOT... Just so strange.

I dont know where to ask, these pages are just online and they just ask for the adress to send them and the payment will be done in cash when i see the product... no upfront payments.
When the guy came to my door he said he has a package for me, the price is XX$ and i opened the pack, saw the watch and gave him the money in hand... so for sure there is something ilegal on selling those.
It just surprises me to sell for that cheap...

You're brave doing the payment up front but I guess that's good for both parties when it works haha. Yeah it is a mystery as to where they get it from. The fact they are reluctant to sell on a platform or their own website shows how secluded this group is. I'm tempted to buy one of the Hublots and then try and engage in a conversation with the delivery person to see if they can help.
