still hear a lot of talk about it mostly on high end parts
we all know there is a shat load about
but whos to know
i myself have personally not sold wig on gear bmx wise
i was 11 yrs old started grammer school NOT PAID for it just happens i was a clever twonk.bintd
anyway i sold lacoste etc to the rich 6th formers yep they were fakes and a made a bloody shoolboy fortune
an older mate of mine used to go to austria and buy all trainers etc you know the likes of adidas trim trab,munchen ,galaxy,oregon to sell in the u.k.
he also came back with a shat load of badges ..fila ,ellesse,tacchini god you name it...
i would get the badges buy the garments from the likes of ethel austin get my mates mum to sew em on with yes it had to be fishin twine and bob was my uncle
so what im saying know it this days techology boom
if i done it bitd with cloth
there must be 10000000000000's of repro old school out there

When I was 16, I spent 2 month in Dubai, you could buy Lacoste polo shirts for £2.00 or bags of Lacoste badges, about a £1.00 for 20. We couldn't believe our luck ;)

Same as that fellers. I used to knock out knock offs too. Loads of the usual labels, like Lacoste, Fila, Kappa, Nike, Chippie. Giorgio perfume and other big name brands. Snidey watches, Rolex, Gucci etc, and also sh1t loads of Nick Faldo collection Pringle stuff. My mates dad used to take everything I had and knock it out at his golf club, and he was already minted. Kept me in E's for a while, I'm sad to say. That's why my memories shot to feck. I can remember all that, but haven't got a clue what I'm sposed to be doing tomorrow :-\
Oh well :D ;D

There are a couple on at the moment selling Elina Lightning seats, and they've both got 0 feedback. ???

I have asked a similar question on here b4 and people who have won stuff have received them and reckon they are legit. There are some from Hong Kong with better feedback - use them
