Hey everyone,

I just placed a personal order for one lightweight Arc'teryx windbreaker (no hood, thin shell, similar to Squamish) from Shark Breeder via Yupoo. The seller quoted me 160 CNY for shipping to South Korea.

For context:
- Item: 1x lightweight Arc'teryx windbreaker (no hood)
- Estimated weight: around 0.4–0.7 kg (just the jacket, no box)
- Destination: South Korea
- Shipping method: Not 100% sure yet, seller just said "direct ship"

Is 160 CNY (~$22–25 USD) normal for this, or is it on the high side? I've seen some posts suggesting 1kg to Korea should be more like 70–115 CNY on economy lines via agents like CNFans/ACBuy/Superbuy.

If anyone has recent experience shipping a single Arc'teryx jacket (especially from Shark Breeder) to Korea or similar destinations, what did you pay for shipping? And which line/agent did you use?

Thanks in advance!

i can’t find it. thank you

Hey Repfam,
I’m currently looking for the absolute best batch for the Nike x Palace Soccer Jersey (both White and Light Blue colorways).
I've been doing some deep research and comparing a couple of local WeChat/1688 sellers against Top-Palace's batch, but I'm still not fully satisfied due to the notorious color shade (batch tint) issues.
(Note: The 1st picture is from the budget 1688 seller, and the 2nd picture is the QC from Top-Palace's Yupoo.)
Here is what I've found so far and what I am specifically looking for:

1. The White Colorway (Back 'PALACE' Printing):
   A lot of budget 1688 batches (around ¥94, see 1st pic) have font printing that is too vibrant, saturated, and straight up "Sky Blue".
   However, retail has that elusive, muted Lavender / Greyish-Blue undertone.
   Top-Palace (see 2nd pic) tried to replicate this, but honestly, in some lighting, his batch looks too purple (overcorrected lavender tint). Also, some budget batches have the font width too narrow/slim compared to retail's wide/bold font.
2. The Light Blue Colorway (Base Fabric Tint):
   Budget batches use standard, bright, vibrant athletic blue fabric.
   Retail actually has a subtle lavender/greyish hue blended into the Light Blue base fabric, making it look more pastel and toned down.
   What I need:
   Does anyone know a high-end seller or a specific hidden batch (maybe from independent weidian sellers) that nails the exact font thickness and that perfect lavender-grey undertone without being too purple or too neon blue?
   Any links, WeChat IDs, or store names would be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Hey, I’m the Korean guy who posted before asking for a QC on a Stone Island badge. Based on the advice I got, I’m looking to buy a new one.
The first pic is the badge I’m thinking of buying, and the second pic is the one I currently have. How’s the quality of the first badge? Any thoughts would be appreciated☺️

Hi everyone! I’m Korean, so my English isn’t perfect. Sorry in advance if there are any awkward sentences.

Most people here probably buy their reps from China, but there are also replica factories in Korea that make and sell them. Of course, a lot of them are either lower quality or much more expensive than what you can get from China.

Before I found Weidian and Taobao, I used to buy reps made by Korean factories. The pieces I’m sharing today are considered some of the best-quality Korean versions available for these particular items.

I thought it might be interesting to show you guys what the quality is like and hear your opinions.

For reference, the Stone Island sweatshirt cost me ₩38,000 (about ¥200 CNY), and the Maison Kitsuné Double Fox quarter-zip cost ₩62,000 (about ¥330 CNY).

Just wanted to share them with you guys and see what you think. Thanks for checking them out! 😊
