Duping is nothing new. I grew up poor. My mom was always getting the Generic version of things…
I remember seeing generic beer in the store. It was in 6-packs, with white cans and "Beer" in black letters on the outside. I had to laugh...
Umm, Google images… (congrats to those guys getting media to listen to them)
Dupes is a common term in the Makeup industry thou.
These terms don't mean the same thing...
Generic =/= dupe =/= knock off
Thank you. Glad someone pointed it out.
They are going to get sued big time.
It’s like your grandpa learning what dupe is and tries to make it seem like they’re gonna make it viral
Mass produced items, I get finding a dupe. A custom piece made by a single creator or small business; I’d like to see dupe offer a chance to negotiate a price or color, etc. from the originator. I also think dupe could offer surveys to ask how much someone is willing to pay so merchants see the threshold consumers are willing to buy for most popular dupe products.
So basically just google lens 🙄
You mean generic brands?
Dupes have been out here forever. There's channels that advertise dupe products.
Uh... "dupes" ARE "knock-offs", just a different term...
Because why would i pay alot if i can get a cheaper version with "almost" same quality.
There still counterfeits.
Dupes are awesome!
Do they sell a PolyStation 5?
You may dupe the look to attain some aesthetic, probably for social media, but you will not dupe texture, quality, performance, or craftmanship. Some items are priced for a reason beyond brand name.
Can I dupe to get a cheaper TV or even dupe to get a cheaper house if I'm a home buyer?
I'll take a dupe Mar-A-Lago, please... ;-P
LoL
girl we don’t care about you losing business it’s a recession
Love this !
Dupes are very different from fakes, knock offs and counterfeits. Dupes are just generic or similar alternatives and you know it. Fakes and counterfeits are trying to trick you into thinking its a known brand name product.
I still don't understand how they don't get constantly sued for copyright infringement. The infrastructure is the product. IDK, but they are amazing.
Copyright (the right to copy) is for written/visual works, trademarks are for brand names, etc. Patents are for products/inventions.
Aldi
just like SHEIN
People who create the legit items need to clearly lower their prices. No clothing should cost more than $50. Not a single piece
The only dupes are gen z.who are broke
Remember, you get what you pay for. A DUPE is always cheaper because it's created with cheaper ingredients and materials.
People spent their time and energy inventing and developing things…this makes their expertise worthless. Would you get a dupe doctor?
Over the counter meds and medical websites are dupes for going to the doctor
Do you not know how to compare things?
You can't compare a knock off product to a doctor lol
Generic, is now dupe… 🤦🏽♂️
So we're just buying more crap ... Great.
Duping just means cheap.
generic?
HEY kislux I have been watching you for years and im so proud of where you have made it! I love you so much! Also thanks for making my day
