What year is it again? http://www.680news.com/2018/06/27/pacific-mall-counterfeit/ |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
As part of that... the US Dept of Trade report that called out PacMall has a treasure trove listing of where to get illicit goods Notorious Markets List https://ustr.gov/sites/default/files/fil...t%201.11.18.pdf |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
The photos taken on that 680 News site shows which sites, and also has photos of the storage boxes, listing Unit C17, C19, etc... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
yeah and next month it'll all be back to the same lol |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
LOL i clicked this expecting to see a bot bumping this up. Nope. Wow. |
||||||||

|||||||
Did anyone go to Taste of Asia last weekend? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Serious question: do Asians shop there knowing that the products they're buying are counterfeit (ballin on a budget)? Or due to being Asian they get hooked up with the goods? Is it more non-asians buying the counterfeit goods? I've purchased eyeglasses from there in the past which I could only assume are counterfeit. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
I go to PacMall for a handful of things: - knock-off (Asian DVDs), because they're cheap in price (back in the day) -- don't buy anymore - glasses/sunglasses, because they're cheaper (are they all fake? ) - phone accessories (cases, screen protector, cables) because they're cheap. (for AC adapters, etc. I usually opt for legit name brands on Amazon/etc.) - bbt - Asian herbs 'n shit for the parents (gifts) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
i just get all of that minus the asian herbs because not asian (they have knockoff curry powder?) from amazon. fuck that parking lot. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
How do you get your glasses/sunglasses reimbursed by your insurance company doe, if you go thru Amazon? The insurance companies have been cracking down and building up large databases whereupon the retailer has to be 'pre-approved' before you can submit to them... So, I've been seeing the eye-care stores there using another branch's address/phone number for the bills... And, to top it off, you MUST buy 'prescription' lenses to go with your Gucci sunglasses... They offer you the cheapest one @ $50, and when you go pick it up, they'll swap it out for you... (Whereas in the past, they 'bypass' the mandatory prescription lenses part) |

oh i just get cheapo sunglasses, even tho my benefits cover them. |

I've purchased eyeglasses from there in the past which I could only assume are counterfeit. I've bought a couple of pairs and I think those were genuine. Was about 10-15% cheaper than other stores. Where do watch people buy their watches? Non-counterfeit. Is there specific place they prefer to go or get them at the respected stores at the mall? |

|
|||||||
What kind of watch? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Yea the type of watch makes a difference. One of my best friend's brother owns one of (if not the) most prestigious watch stores in the GTA (ie 6 figure watches). If that's what you're looking for, let me know. |

People buy (legit) baller watches local? I thought they'd buy them in the St. Thomas, etc due to lack of taxes, etc? </TooRichForMyBlood> |
