as a general rule, high fashion brands don't offer a sale greater than 10-15% as they rather destroy the product than allow it's reputation to fall. If you are a VIP or VVIP customer, you will get an offline discount or access but when you see a high fashion brand openly advertising a reduction of 30% or greater, just walk away.
@@Pinkydidi727 nah mate, ultra luxury brands like Balmain or Prada will never offer an open sale because they have a standard to follow, they will offer it internally to their VIP customers but not to a first time buyer.
Nopes many brands do that but not 70 ya 50 mayb but when such brands are in other countries the pricing and discount policy changes.. there is lot of things to explain here but yes a brand which wants to flush out all their designs do put sale..
That is the reason you should not buy any product by looking at the brand, instead if you like the quality of the product and if the price is reasonable then and then only you should buy it otherwise you have to feel regret just like Gaurav bhai
It's not about ki apko brands nhi purchase krne chahiye. Yha bhi bro woh Dubai se laye plus Balmain koi bhi kse doubt krega first instance mei. But hn if someone really want to buy luxury brand toh phle online check Krna is better option
People don’t have expertise and time to check quality every time. If you purchased an item from a brand and it turned out ti be good .. next time you will just go any store of that brand and you will just by look without worrying out quality.
There are two Balmain in Dubai Mall , one is fake and the other one is listed on Balmain website Which one did u go to Check Gaurav’s vlog till end and check your receipt
Reality is that in Dubai original Balmain has given license to produce to these stores. Now they produce their own products, in Dubai and sell under Balmain name. It’s is legal arguement and all official. Got to know about this in London from Balmain country head over there. I raised the same query which you had.
simple si baat hai : brand ka khudka bill aaye, waisi hi jagah se lena chahiye. multibrand store, ya phir aise store jo ki brand ka bill na de, box na de, bag na de, usase kharide hi kyo ?
@@rajbest8638 first of all, i did started then people start saying that nobody no knows you so who will watch your videos and then it all become scary so
Moral of the incident - Go for functionality over brand name. Jo kaam kam may ho skta tha... Inko 35000 ka choona laga h Luxury brands just fool you. Aisa kuch extraordinary high quality nhi hoti unme especially bags and clothings.
Gaurav, Balmain is mid tier luxury brand. Regardless, no luxury brands will discount their products to 70%. By doing that it hampers the exclusivity the brand offers. I haven’t shopped in Dubai but i doubt that big brands like LV, Gucci, Dior, Celine offer significant discounts in the malls.
Woah!! That’s something new. I always believed Dubai Mall selling everything legit & genuine but after watching this video. I’m not going to buy anything from there. The US & Canada are much better for shopping.
Sir, if possible please don't purchase or promote leather products. On one side you are doing a good cause of making a cattle farm and on the other side you are purchasing bags made out of the skin of that species.
After your initial vlog on this bag, I wanted to know the price (as you didn’t mention) so I browsed Balmain Paris site but couldn’t find that bag. But good that you have told to your audience that it is fake.
100% right.....me celebration mall udaipur job karta tha... Pantaloons me...waha kapdo per mitti lagi hui thi...dhaage nikle the ... Fake stickers lageya jata tha....same to same kapda bahar tempu me or usse better lekar aata tha...then i fight with manager...i got suspended. 😢😢 Now iam influencer
I’m a resident of Dubai, the authorities knows about it every time we see someone wearing a balmain bag we laugh in our mind that they’re wearing fake and they don’t know about it but people from would still come and buy because it’s 70% off and fall for it 😅
Also note that Dubai Restaurants are Looting customers by high cost for water . And if you try to take your own water they stop you from drinking . Very good in exposing high handed store scams
I am from Dubai only the flashy not so important people wear Balmain here, just like Guess products and Giodarno watches in India. True rich never appreciates or endorses such loud brands. Indians is yet to understand this with time as their taste matures with more money. Right now everyone just wants to flash their new found money with these brands. Its better to create your identity around what you do, rather than endoring such brands to prove your worth.
The fact that you bought a fake bag thinking that it's real and couldn't differentiate until someone pointed it out to you, proves that it's not worth buying luxury bags/clothes. There is literally nothing incremental you get out of this.
Balmain Paris (Company) 1) Must Be Getting a Revenue%.. 2) Quality/Design/Aesthetics Must Be Good.. 3) UAE Market Collection or Sales Strategy Must be Different and Thus Must Have Tied Up with a Local Partner to Use their Name.. 4) Local Partner is Now Fully Exploiting the Agreement.. 5) Balmain Eyes Closed as Higher Sales is Coming compared to their Other Stores..
Unfortunately Dubai UAE & Arab countries is packed with fake or replica high-end brand shops. As is Balmain in this Mall, especially All items are replica but sold as real Balmain from Paris. Middle east Arab countries are doing or recreating fake fake products & cheating customers. But anyways Thank you for highlighting this issue & creating awareness. Have a great day 👍🏻
Do not buy from the Balmain store in the ground floor and one on the level 2 (ones with huge discounts - 75%). The original Balmain store is the one on Fashion Avenue in the mall. The other 2 stores are just licensed store which sell similar products of lower grade material because the own a license to sell. They could be manufactured anywhere. Apparently original Balmain can't do anything because of the license which they sold which is tarnishing the image of the brand. BEWARE! They also dont accept returns nor do they refund.
Sad that this happened to you. But the best way to treat this bag is by writing on it “fake Balmain from Dubai” and wearing it in public creating awareness.. haha.. that would be so cool. Like how Casey neistat painted his raybans
There are 3 stores in Dubai Mall the only one which is in Fashion Avenue ( Ground Floor has 2 stores ) one which has 70% or any kind of big discount that one is fake. The official store close to Fashion Parking.
Happened to me when i went to shop in PUMA's official outlet which was in Mulund, near Thane. The Soft Foam in their shoes felt like hard sofa sponge 🤦
I also faced a scam in a restaurant in Amar Colony, near Lajpat Nagar, New Delhi. They charged us ₹450 for a ₹65 cold drink can! 😡 When I questioned the staff, they refused to refund the difference. 😤 #ScamAlert #ConsumerRights I req to Gaurav and Ritu do visit & experience such incident in that restaurant.
One wonders what is the point of buying these luxury brands. Replicas are everywhere. If you are not in that league no point in buying luxury brand or wearing it, because you have to live that life for people to believe that you are wearing the original branded clothes or carrying the original bag. Otherwise you have spent a lot of money but no one believes that your bag/watch/clothes are original. Invest your money, grow your money and spend a little bit of your money in indulgences.
Bhai same problem with macho under-wear brand i mean to say when we purchase these garments from genral garments store its quality is very poor and if we purchase it from D-Mart the quality of same garments is very good (कपडे कि quality मे बहोत ही बडा difference है)
This is how brands make money. You pay for the logo and not for the quality of the item. The material is same, quality is same colos is same but the moment you get to know the brand is fake it hurts. It hurts because you PAID for the brand.

luxury brands never put their products on sales ..
This just shows you can you can buy fake products and not even actual rich people will doubt it if you carry the product well enough 😂
Same applies for ralph lauren in Indonesia. There are RL stores all over bali and they are all fake.
Luxury and Super premium brands never do such sales.70% off is something that even a ZARA wouldn't do. That's the biggest red flag.
