A new RepHemres subgroup. The question is, why do they need so many? There have been several users that have been associated with groups with the same stem in the name. RepHermes this, RepHermes that. What they all have in common is they always push a group sale… mostly with Mark. There are moderators that started group sales with Frank around a year ago. Since then, Frank gets a little more attention, however, as comments have been made about Frank’s quality (objectively, which is not great) there are posts pushing Frank and the comments with responses on one of the RepHermesQC scam subgroup staying “Frank not Jim.” I recall reading users getting banned from commenting after posting about their experiences with these many sellers, including Frank and Mark. I don’t believe they ever even mentioned Jim.

For context to those who are newer to these subreddits, RepHermes was a Sub owned by Mark and Minion, who are the same seller.

Anyone could post, but because some of Jim’s customers were posting their bags, they set up Mod approval for every post.

Then the RepHermes Mods got banned, so because of this we didn't see anymore posts in the RepHermes sub for almost 3 months, since they had set Mod approval and if Mods are banned they cannot approve the posts, which means that Sub will no longer have any posts, which is why user hartofalyon created RepHermesQC around the same time.

Now user hartofalyon, who constantly pushes Mark, Minion and the other alts who are all the same person takes over as the Mod of RepHermes, lmao!

Only a Mod can allow another Mod to join a Sub, what more proof does anyone need that this is all the same person and seller behind these shenanigans.

They also drop a few other seller names like Lucy, Ben, Slee and others, so newbies believe it’s a platform where they can choose the right seller for them, not being aware it’s all the same organized misleading behavior by user hartofalyon and his other alts.

.

They have attempted to rebrand themselves but always go back to RepHemes using yet another alias; however, their tactics are still the same, no matter the quality or the name, or how they rebrand themselves.

Also, another reason for the attempts to constantly rebrand (as they have done since RepHermes Bags) and attack is: For those of us who have been around for years, we remember what happened to the RepHermes H Atelier group sale. They didn’t disclose who the seller was which led to a lot of speculation. It was speculated that Peter was the seller behind us, however, what if it wasn’t Peter? They denied that it was Peter. Side note, who else recalls the word on the street being that Frank sourced bags from Peter? I mean, this is absolutely believable.

Back to the matter at hand, perhaps those various mods were telling the truth. Perhaps the seller that they were working with wasn’t Peter and was actually Mark. This would make a lot of sense given that RealRepBaby is absolutely tight to Mark. As we have seen posted previously, NJZ is an absolute attack ally for Mark. There is no way that he is going to promote or be associated with another seller. All evidence points to the fact that user hartofalyon is Mark the seller aka Minion, although they will never disclose that to the community.

It would make sense given how fervent they are to convince people of something base on loose associations, conjecture, and flat out lies all the while, boasting up himself and other sellers with whom he is associated.

It really comes down to every accusation is a confession.

I’ve also attached some photos for good measure.

All of this only makes sense. No filler, no conjecture, just observations and actual facts.

They disappeared for a few days, and honestly, I expected them to come back with something more convincing. Instead, we're now looking at three posts in a single day pushing the exact same claims we've already heard countless times before.

The most entertaining part is always the screenshots.

So today we have two posts from user Mission_9673 and another from our well-known user hartofalyon. If you've been around for a while, you'll know he's made quite a few posts about Jim already, and his obsession with the guy only seems to be growing over time. Let's see what they've brought to the table this time.

Starting with the post from user hartofalyon, it's no surprise that it was posted in the same subreddit that has repeatedly been mentioned in previous discussions. The subreddit exists almost exclusively to post content against Jim, and most of the activity seems to come from the same small group of accounts. That alone raises some questions, but let's continue.

The image he posted is one I've seen circulating before in previous posts. Before even discussing the content itself, let's address something that all of these posts have in common: the comment counts never seem to match what is actually visible. Time after time, the numbers suggest there are more comments than we can see, which naturally leads people to wonder where the missing comments went. If comments that disagree with the narrative are being removed, that's worth paying attention to.

As for the post itself, there's really nothing new. It's the same old story about Jim using bots, manipulating reviews, and controlling communities. At this point, the dedication is almost impressive. The guy is so invested in this topic that he has apparently built an entire website dedicated to Jim. If that doesn't look like a personal mission, I honestly don't know what does.

Now let's move on to the first post from user Mission_9673.

The post contains a screenshot of another account claiming that Jim attacked them, that they're somehow in danger, and that they need help. The problem is that the account making those claims has absolutely no history in the replica bag community or even the wider replica community at all. The account essentially appeared out of nowhere and immediately started posting about Jim.

Are we seriously supposed to believe that's just a coincidence?

Looking through the comments, the whole thing feels incredibly coordinated. Once again, there's a lot of talking but very little evidence. Plenty of accusations, plenty of claims, but nothing that can actually be verified.

Even the comments raise questions. The post shows 22 comments, but only 16 are visible.

Then we have the second post from the same account.

This time, they shared a screenshot of a private conversation and claimed that Jim is running a "mass sale" operation similar to Joe Luxury. What's interesting is that JoeLuxury's name has appeared in some of their previous posts as well. It almost feels like they've run out of evidence and switched to guilt-by-false-association. If you can't prove something, just compare the person to someone controversial and hope people draw their own conclusions.

But that's not evidence.

People have been asking for proof, not assumptions, theories, and comparisons.

They have claim they censored Jim's number because they didn't want to promote him. Seriously? Are we really expected to believe that?

And once again, the comments tell a familiar story. The post shows four comments, yet only one is actually visible. If you're that confident in your claims, why are comments constantly disappearing?

What I find most interesting is that we've seen plenty of sellers exposed over the years. When that happens, there's usually something substantial behind it: failed orders, bait-and-switches, fake tracking numbers, quality issues, or documented evidence from multiple buyers.

Here, we're seeing the opposite. The accusations keep coming, yet we're still seeing positive reviews, PSPs, quality checks, and successful purchases being shared across multiple communities.

If people want to believe every accusation without evidence, that's their choice. Personally, I need something stronger than screenshots of random conversations and stories posted by accounts that appeared yesterday.

And let's be realistic, this won't be the last post.

Tomorrow there will probably be another screenshot, another accusation, another fake theory, and another attempt to keep the narrative alive.

At this point, I'd say grab some popcorn and enjoy the show, because they clearly aren't planning to stop anytime soon. Nobody spends this much time posting about the same seller day after day without some kind of motivation driving them.

Anyway, the information is out there for everyone to see.

You can decide for yourselves what to believe.

Here is my latest post. Please go through it. I recently exposed these foolish scammers with evidence, and they went silent for a while. However, they have now started making posts about Jim again:

Here is from another user who exposed him better then me:

You can decide for yourselves what to believe.

I'm calling out some accounts and subs that have been going after trusted sellers in this market and honestly the more I dug into it the more obvious it got. These aren't concerned buyers sharing bad experiences. This is something else entirely.

Let me start with the pattern because it's impossible to ignore once you see it. User Upstairs-Piglet7926, 2 year old account, 30 followers, and if you scroll through the history basically everything is just attacking sellers. No purchases, no QC posts, no normal community activity

User hartofalyon is even more telling, 11 years on Reddit and suddenly in the last two weeks it's just seller callouts back to back with nothing to back any of it up. Not one receipt. Not one proof. Just noise. An account that sat quiet for over a decade doesn't just wake up one day with a personal vendetta unless something is driving it.

Then there's user Aribag000001, 1 year old, same exact behavior, same targets, same energy.

And the subs RepScamWorld, HermesScamCheck, RepHermesQC, go through them one by one and tell me they don't feel like they're run by the same person. The writing style is the same, the targets are the same, the whole approach is identical. HermesScamCheck was literally created a few days ago and already has posts going after the same trusted seller being targeted everywhere else by this same person.

But here's where it gets really interesting. User Upstairs-Piglet7926 posted against the trusted seller in sub RepCulture_Bags a few days ago.That same post he did in sub HermesScamCheck, but intentionally he didn't approve it himself in the sub, a sub where I believe he is also a moderator with a different account that belongs to him. And then he turned around and played the victim card, acting like their "honest post" got removed by a biased sub and that everyone is against them for speaking the truth. You can see it clearly in the screenshots, and when you read the replies in the comment section of the specific post in sub RepCulture_Bags.

What really got me was how they're sitting there monitoring comments in real time and the second anyone pushes back they immediately call them fake accounts and paid fans, delete the user comments and get the users banned. That's not someone who got scammed and wants to warn people. That's seller who doesn’t have enough customers posing as someone else.

I'm not here to tell anyone who to buy from at all. People in this community, especially newer buyers, deserve to know when something doesn't add up. And this really doesn't add up.
