Alleged Rehome Flipper luxegirly

I wanted to share an experience that seems way too coincidental:

Timeline
6/12: I posted MK rehome advertising TS Devin originally asking for $190 + shipping
6/12: Sold MK rehome to Reddit user luxegirly for $175 + shipping
6/19: The day shipment arrived luxegirly stopped responding to chat and blocked my account
6/20: I see luxegirly coincidentally has an MK for sale that’s identical to the one I sold but with a different TS/factory. Not sure the price it sold for, but it was advertised by this post as high tier and it certainly was not.

It all seems shady to me and posting as an awareness item that some on Reddit may be flipping low tier rehomes and reselling for higher pricing.

Has anyone else had a seller claim a bag was from one factory, only to later admit it wasn’t? Has this happened to anyone else?

Has anyone else had a seller claim a bag was from one factory, only to later admit it wasn’t?
I specifically asked for a bag from a certain factory and paid based on that understanding. After I received it and questioned some details, the seller admitted it actually came from a different factory.
I’m not upset because the bag is terrible. I’m upset because I was told one thing and received another. If I had known the true factory from the beginning, I could have made an informed decision.
For me, trust is everything when buying replicas. If a seller is willing to lie about the factory, it makes me question what else they might not be honest about.
Has this happened to anyone else? How did you handle it, and would you continue buying from that seller?

Shipping Expert - need advice

Hey everyone! I'm about to use Superbuy's Shipping Expert for my first ever shipment to Italy and I need help with several things.

My items:

  • 8 short sleeve t-shirts
  • 3 swimsuits
  • 1 jeans
  • 2 shorts
  • 5 caps
  • 3 belts
  • 4 boxers
  • 1 pack of socks (3 pairs)
  • 1 pair of shoes
  • 1 pair of sunglasses (with hard case)
  • 1 pair of plastic slippers
  • 1 shirt

Packing doubts:

  1. For the shoes: I want to remove the original box to save space, but I'm worried they might deform during shipping. Should I ask Superbuy to insert a shoe tree or cardboard support inside? Is this a standard request they can handle?
  2. For the sunglasses: I want to keep the hard case to protect them. Is this a good idea or does it add too much volumetric weight?
  3. For the plastic slippers: I plan to remove the box since they won't deform. Does this make sense?
  4. For all fabric items: I plan to request vacuum sealing. Will this significantly reduce the volumetric weight or just the actual weight?
  5. What should I write in the "Sending plan description" / remarks field? Can you share an example of what works well for Italy?
  6. In the Shipping Expert form, which options/checkboxes should I select for the best result shipping to Italy?

Declared value question:
The real value of my order is approximately US$354. I plan to use the DHL Tax Prepaid line for Italy. Given this, what declared value would you recommend? Should I declare the full amount or something lower? What are the risks of declaring too little or too much on a DHL Tax Prepaid line specifically?

Thanks so much for your help, any advice is hugely appreciated! 🙏

WARNING for future xkix no buyers

I wanted to share my experience for anyone considering purchasing from Xkix.

On April 6, I ordered a pair of shoes and was promised delivery by April 18 for a specific event. I even paid extra for expedited shipping—$148 for the shoes plus $10 for faster shipping. The seller then instructed me to send payment through PayPal Friends & Family to avoid additional fees, bringing my total payment to $162.73.

Despite the promised delivery date, the package was not shipped until April 20 and was not expected to arrive until April 27, well after my event. Since I no longer needed the shoes, I repeatedly asked the seller to contact FedEx and have the package returned. I personally contacted FedEx multiple times and was told that only the sender could request a return. The seller repeatedly claimed they had contacted FedEx, but when I asked for proof or call logs, they never provided any and consistently avoided the question. When I followed up with FedEx again, I was informed that no one had contacted them regarding the package and that there had been no requests to return it.

After months of attempting to resolve the matter, the seller sent a $100 refund. However, the refund was sent through PayPal Goods & Services as though the seller were purchasing something from me, despite requiring me to pay through Friends & Family in the first place. When I asked why I had not been allowed to use Goods & Services originally, I never received a clear answer. I requested the remaining $58 (excluding fees) of the purchase price and informed the seller that I intended to report the matter to PayPal and my card issuer. Shortly afterward, the seller opened a PayPal dispute regarding the $100 refund because I said I’d report this situation. Xkix won the case, and recovered the money.

As a result, I am currently out $162.73, an additional $20 dispute fee, and still have no product, as the package remains held by FedEx. Everyone should make their own decision, but based on my experience, I would strongly encourage buyers to exercise caution and fully understand the risks before sending money to this seller.

*apologies for the typo in the title*

i’ve been scammed out of extra money from xkix

i know this probably isn’t the place to put this information, but there’s been a long ongoing dispute between me and xkix (middleman). i’m debating if i should drop all of the information to spread awareness for their future buyers?

Scammer mjt803

I believe their account has already been deleted. They were claiming to Rehome a burgundy BV andiamo. After payment the account was deleted. I became aware because another Reddit user posted in another sub and had the same experience.

Am I being too harsh about the colors?

Item: LV X TM Soft Speedy 30 in multicolore noir

Seller: BaoBao

Price:

  • $211.90 USD
  • $31.79 for seizure insurance
  • $65.80 shipping

TOTAL: $309.48

Factory: GX (aka MB?)

Link to album

I'm pretty picky about colors, which is why I spent an *obscene* amount of time evaluating the 33 colors in this pattern. It's tough, because they can look very different from one lighting condition to another, but I now have a pretty good sense of how the colors look and what the layout should look like.

In the pics (which alternate between my PSPs and the factory pics from BaoBao's album), you can see that certain colors seem pretty drastically different (most notably the browns– which read as orange in the PSP, and the yellows– which should have three distinct shades. The fuchsia LV in the row with purple and mustard yellow should look lighter and more blue-based than the hot pink LV above it, but in these pics you can barely tell the difference). The colors on the whole look much more muted than they do in the factory pics (the lime green/chartreuse almost looks yellow?)

Overall, the colors seem off and the canvas is very matte (which I could likely fix if that was the only issue) so I'm inclined to RL, but wanted to get the group consensus to make sure I'm not just being overly critical!

BEWARE: Abby shipped wrong color bag & has ghosted me

After having two positive experiences ordering from Abby, I placed a third order for a red Goyard Mini Anjou as a gift for a friend. I never GL'd the PSP photos, yet the bag was shipped anyway. When I received it, the bag was the wrong color (burgundy instead of red).

I reached out to resolve the issue, but she has not made any effort to correct it and has since stopped responding to my messages. Her only solution is to post the bag to her FB group and even when I asked her more questions regarding that she read my message and ignored me. It’s honestly disappointing to be treated this way as a repeat customer, especially after placing multiple orders.

I'm posting this because I genuinely want to know if anyone else has dealt with something similar recently.

Help i’m confused for my Chanel 25 (and more questions below!)🧐

Hi rep ladies, i’ve been on rep reddit for 1 month scrolling around & texting 10 different TS i found here.

Mostly from trusted list from 1% contributors etc

Questions:

  1. For Chanel 25, which factory is the BEST?
  2. I’ve checked around, is it normal to just send dustbag only?— i know it’s more safe, but box is cute to have lol
  3. If seller said it’s God factory, is there any way we can verify? My TS said there’s gonna be a tag, but TS can fake a tag right? (I mean come on we’re on rep side of the world, technically we’re here buying fake stuff hehehe —baddie on budget💗)
  4. Also i’ve read on other post about unpopular opinion, that God factory, 187, OF, Xiao C are never exist? They name the factory to make it easier to classify + seller safety too. so these factories remain anonymous…

Rep ladies seniors, please i wanna know your thoughts, all thoughts are welcome!!

Peace✌️🩵

Watch Out for u/TulipGirl1 (Account Banned) and u/TulipGirl2 - SCAMMER

Watch out for either one of these sellers u/Tulipgirl1 and u/TulipGirl2 trying to sell this CC bag below. Hang on for the ride, this one is a doozy.

https://preview.redd.it/sn5qtnrvuv8h1.png?width=320&format=png&auto=webp&s=4b8b6acef981b8e27641591e3c137dc624e2be18

6/5 Purchased this and paid via PPFF. Says she will ship Mon 6/8

6/8 AM Followed up to ask for tracking, but see u/TulipGirl1 account is inactive. Automatically think I got scammed. Posted about it. Called my bank in a panic to try and retrieve the funds and was successful.

6/8PM I get a message from u/TulipGirl2 saying Reddit locked her account and she contacted mods to try and tell me. Sends me the tracking. I delete the post and am so relieved that it was "not" a scam situation.

6/9 5PM She messages me about the disputed paypal funds. In all honesty I forgot because I was just so relieved it was "not" a scam. Tried to log in to PP but my account needed verification. Responded to explain this to her and asked if we could split the $15 stop payment fee and if I can venmo instead.

6/10 8:45 AM She says yes. 9:30AM I send the Venmo. 12:30 PM she confirms receipt.

6/12 6PM I track the package to see she has intercepted and redirected the package. I message her and she says she stopped the package because she thought I was scamming her. Ok, maybe she forgot to tell me like I forgot to tell her about Paypal, but I course corrected immediately!

https://preview.redd.it/6i6gjt28wv8h1.png?width=1225&format=png&auto=webp&s=90496f837e4a06776f6da8f5ed8a0e39d14f7808

The conversation continued below. As of this posting, she has officially ghosted me, and I can no longer get updates on whether the package has been returned to her.

https://preview.redd.it/ih3qn9kiwv8h1.png?width=1492&format=png&auto=webp&s=82c0e56c96a547d75be19f1a7883132ff53ac28c

And that my friends, is the saga with Tulipgirl1+2. I even asked her for the funds back on Venmo and she has not sent them over. Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice, damnit still shame on you. Trustless Tulip!
