China is famous for their original high-quality craftsmanship ever since the Communist Regime took over... or was that the other way around...

I'm sure eBay removed it because it's considered a "mystery" package-type deal, which is against their TOS. Also, I've seen and heard of it recently that people will send items to an address that is "undeliverable" so they can submit a claim for a lost package and have insurance payout on it, 5x more than the item is worth some times.
@@ChaseMC215 Amazon and USPS do it all the time, I actually buy pallets of returns / undeliverable packages when I can. I think it would only be illegal if they were stolen by porch pirates and then sold off, but when they're returned / undeliverable the company can do with that what they please.
That explains the customs labels marking knockoff blacklights as microprocessors then. Pretty ballsy considering customs can open up packages to confirm its contents
Might also be a bit of a liability issue since these packages appear to have still had their original shipping addresses visible. That means that the person selling the package is technically giving out someone else's personal information.

I'd have to look at the actual ones tomorrow to be sure, but the label looks wrong to me, so I'm guessing fake, used at minimum since it's not cisco packaging.
since the originals are made in China as well, there's a good chance these are backdoor products, which is a common problem in China. When the factories close for the night, the copy pirates are let in through the backdoor to use the original molds etc to produce copycat products that look somewhat original, but aren't. It's one of the problems that come from having stuff made in a country that couldn't care less about copyright or intellectual property
If it's a UK to UK package, but with a customs tag, it's because it's a package from (probably) China that has been shipped to the UK as part of a large consignment. The consignment is sent to a UK processing facility, where it's given it's own (usually RM or Evri/Hermes, the so called "last-mile" courier) shipping label so it can finish the rest of it's journey. This is often done with items from AliExpress and other similar e-stores, to enable air shipping (10-20 days, sometimes faster) of cheap packages that would've been shipped by a service that'd take months, rather than weeks, before this became common practice.
Yes, I buy a lot of craft supplies and machine parts from "UK sellers" because I want the stuff quickly, not in 6 weeks time, and it is always like this... batch supplied from China to a warehouse in Stoke-on-Trent, then shipped to me.
Yeah, that's how everything via the standard AliExpress shipping option comes now. I made the mistake of picking Cainiao Super Economy for something instead a while back and that took over two months to arrive.
I once had a removable steering wheel kit that was definitely the same kind of quality. Thankfully, the steering wheel didn't come off in my hands at any point.

Asia is full of “_____ Life” this and that. There’s probably a deep lore and history to it but I haven’t come across why. A lot of the products I’ve seen are very cute or homely.
Surprised you didn't get more "naughty stuff" to be honest, years ago my wife worked in the offices for a courier/re-mailing company and they had a "undelivered dildo wall" in the break room🤣. Their theory was people would order these "items" for themselves without the knowledge of partners/family members and refuse the parcel on delivery out of embarrassment because they where not alone when it arrived. It was quite an impressive collection, and not all of them where of "human" design😳.
"It's a f'#%ing bastard wank hole funko pop" had me in tears, thanks for cheering me up on the sad weekend. Brilliant concept, parcel roulette, the modern version of a blind bag. Thanks Ashens.
Please tighten the nut after adjusting the spline of boss to the spline of shaft. Otherwise the spline of boss is break down and very danger. Please grease the face of insulator little bit. :D
I used to sell knock offs like that, you can tell because there’s plastic on a non leather handle, the dust bag is super cheap material and if you look inside the lining of an original is very silky and usually there’s a controlato card inside. That being said, your logo on that knock off is very original looking so it sells for more than other cheaper ones. I’d guess you could sell it for around $50. If you list it make sure to only say designer look alike. If you use LV in the description they’ll cancel your listing.
Never trust a customs declaration. When I worked for a shipping company (that actually owned its own ship) we would ship anything that had a customs declaration, no questions asked. We once got a full size shipping container delivered with a declaration that said it contained a single television. We still loaded it on board.
Probably a TV from that short-lived era where they were both CRTs and also big screens. Those TVs were legitimately the size of a shipping container lol
@@yaziyo god yea, and with shit resolution ma had a 3-4 foot wide huge old thing upstairs, but it had like 480p quality, absolutely unwatchable at that size unless you sat a mile away at which point why buy such a big screen
this was surprisingly entertaining hope another one will be done - the parcel labels are so suspicious incorrectly identifying the contents of the package.
@@gray007nl It's probably because the actual UV lamp is a fluorescent tube. It's like shipping a lithium-ion battery, they're classed as hazardous. A microprocessor isn't,
When I ship something that requires a description I always put something that's technically true but generic. Back when I was gunsmithing I shipped a lot of "assembled machine parts"
Didn´t the US postal or at least one of them do something similar. I recall at least one of the US postal services holding actions on unclaimed parcels.
There are instances where people will sell "replica" (counterfeit) replica jewelry, handbags, and clothings overseas and they will often declare the customs value as very low. Sometimes it's the same factory as the designer.
The Boss kit is for installing an aftermarket sterrring wheel. It would be modle specific. The "Bay Blade" style tops were probably samples sent from a Chinese manufacturer to someone looking to buy wholesale. the "Plush Blade" is actually a Svkichico Handmade Braided Cushion Soft Knot Pillow Cute Cushion Long Deco.
Hey Ashens, the "plush" item in 13:30 is actually a baby crib protection "snake". It goes around the baby to insure that it doesn't hit itself on the wooden bar sides when turning.
it's been so long since i've watched an ashens video, i used to be obsessed with these videos when i was like 13! i was literally just thinking about 0-3 sad onions yesterday and got this video in my recommendations today!
I love stuart's reaction to the funko pop. 'Bastard' apparently is the first thing that comes to stuart's mind when he sees a funko pop. Just goes to show how universally hated they are for some reason.
On the customs declaration thing: Often times these chinese companies that send non-orders to random addresses declare the item on the website, but then stuff some cheap crap into the box instead. So likely, they wanted to get a review/order for their cheap knockoff microprocessor, but didnt want to waste their merchandise, so they stuffed an EVEN CHEAPER blacklight into the box instead, hoping nobody would open the box and find out.
Nobody is verifying customs declarations against reviews. From past experience they've done this to help dodge import tax on items £15 black light Vs £2 microprocessor.

That infrared thermometer is taking me back 😂 back in 2020 after I lost my job due to COVID layoffs, I got a job taking temperatures at the entrance to a factory for $25 an hour. Far and away the easiest job I've ever had and probably ever will have.
It sounds like an awful job though. I once had a security gig where I did nothing all day long except for wave people out the exit from my car as they drove by. I couldn't even understand why they were paying me to be there. In 3 weeks I never had any interaction with anyone other than making eye contact and waving at them. But I couldn't read a book because people from the client company and the employee would drive by and if I wasn't making eye contact and waving at them I'd get fired. It was the worst job I ever had and 8 hours felt like 8 days.

wow no ashens for that long... where have you been and how did you survive?! welcome back then i guess, it must have been pretty serious whatever it was, glad youre ok😅
The listing probably got pulled from Ebay because it falls foul of the "Chance listings policy". It's not really allowed to sell "mystery boxes" on Ebay.
Love Ashens eminating that strong dad/grandpa energy when he tries to fiddle with the knock-off beyblade. Easy to forget that beyblades aren't something all humans just instinctively know how to use.
or some people just don't give a shit about a cheap shitty toy from an even shittier anime show that was only made to sell the afore mentioned cheap shitty toy
If you're buying mysterious packages, then could you do a video about unclaimed airport luggage? That seems like a potentially interesting topic to make a video about.
In Germany Frankfurt Airport does those luggage auctions regularly. I bought a suitcase from there and it I had luck. Beautiful clothing in my size - but I had to trash the porn magazines;-)
Those knockoff Beyblades usually have lead in them so that's fun! Fakes will have Phillips screws while real ones have tri-wing screws. The real version of the one that Ashens struggled to put together is pretty cool, though. It has a gimmick where that bit he twisted on will fly off in battle when hit hard enough. (Yes I'm a Beyblade adult)
@@dom3827 nah Hasbro just makes cheap ones that you see in store. You can get their pro series which are pretty epic tbh. Otherwise the ones from Japan by Takara Tomy are usually even more crazy/larger than some of the originals
Actually the Bag is truly worth that amount, because: 1. I Want to believe it is. 2. I saw it on the internet for that price ...somewhere. 3. Someone in the comments said it is worth that much. 4. It says LV on it must be worth it. 5. It's got an official looking receipt and customs document. 6. It's made in China.
When they have a label underneath and a customs declaration, that's a sign that it's from a freight forwarder. Chinese sellers ship a bunch of their products to UK/USA warehouses and then dispatch orders from there so it's not always directly from China. Also not called for means it sat in some dusty sorting office for a while before Royal Mail bothered to return to sender.
@@thesteelrodent1796 There's a massive difference between corporate manufacturing in China, and the back-street, fly-by-night "factories" that produce the kind of tat on show here.
Yeah if I was Ashens. I would at least double check to make sure the bag is indeed fake before tossing it. Because that could be an expensive mistake if it's not a fake.
god i love coming back to this channel after 6 months and catching up on all the videos. there’s something about binging ashens .. it’s the best viewing experience for me
Who else instantly knew what the “massive strap” was and was just grinning and laughing like an idiot waiting for the gears in Stuart’s head to click and him to go “….oh!”???? Makes you wonder how much more lewd #4 was that he couldn’t show that but he could show the “strap”. Bet it was either a flesh light or a very cheap looking blow up doll.
The customs declaration on the UK to UK packages is because it isn't actually send from the UK. If you order from AliExpress they will send it to a distribution center in the UK ( or wherever you live ) first, where it will pass customs. From there it will be shipped again, hence it seemed to be shipped from the UK
It's cheap for the seller to place an order with their supplier to send the part directly to the customer, it's but complete shit for the customers. I ordered a part from Germany and had to pay an import fee since the part was sent from their supplier in fucking China instead of a country within the EU. And had the package been lost - tough shit since the seller wasn't the ones who sent it and the supplier in China isn't the one who sold it, so...
As someone who buys a lot of things directly from China this everything shown all looks like they are directly from China, the blue / gray plastic bag is a big giveaway. I have also noticed a lot of it comes by Royal Mail with a UK return address. My guess is that there are warehouses in the UK where a lot of the stuff coming from China is sorted and relabelled and then set to their proper destination. And this stuff is just the stuff that fell through the cracks of the system with people putting in the wrong address, forgetting about them and not collecting them or even moving house the new occupants rejecting things that aren't theirs. I don't think these are connect to the fake reviews thing because these seem too large and bulky for that and they seem like thing people would genuinely order from China.
I think the return address might be from Hong Kong because they label a lot of stuff as "From your country" but put a mail house address on it to make you think it was shipped from "your country" when it was still shipped from HK. I've seen a lot of this on Aliexpress where they charge $5 to ship and it's still coming from China.
@@Demiglitch Sometimes seeds, at least once knockoff sunglasses. It's basically an even more random version of Stuart's Wish videos, just random cheap tat.
The UK "return" addresses are often fake, or are some random persons house. I've returned a few items from eBay Chinese sellers and 80% of the time they've returned back to me as "not known at this address" etc.
The black light would come in handy for cleaning up after using the item he refused to show us and the next item after that we all know that also goes good with it. "Two facilitate the spread eagling of a human" is not something I expected to ever hear.
Watching this remembering when I was introduced to Ashens about 7-8yrs ago maybe. I heard my 7yr old daughter giggling like there was no tomorrow…went to investigate and she was on her android tablet watching Ashens opening Moshi monster packets…she was doubled over laughing, there was a lady googoo in there somewhere…I will have to go find it and watch it again 😂
In the US we have actual stores that you can go to where they have dozens of big bins full of this stuff. It's $5 an item on stock day and then by the end of the week its $1 an item mostly because the good stuff is gone lol. You have to dig though the bins too which makes it kind of fun. Our local one is called treasure hunt.
Used to be "Hudson's Treasure Hunt" but some other entity bought them out. Now it's just "Treasure Hunt"!!!🙄 They also had a "Dirt Cheap" section but now it's all just "Treasure Hunt"!!!
Those are all-in-one DACs (direct attach cables) for short distances, as opposed to stand alone fiber/copper transceivers that need separate cabling. If they're 10Gbps SFP+ and not counterfeit the price would be accurate...otherwise really not worth the trouble.
It could fetch a million pounds. It's not WORTH that. Also no. It wont fetch a million pounds. The most expensive item is only in the hundreds of thousands of... dollars. So hard luck there, mate.

the cisco sfp cables can be worth a bit, at least as far as cables go. Mighty want to look into that :) And reagrding the guard bar. Might be one of those that put infront of the door if it has a gap. To stop wind coming through.
A lot of supposed UK parcels show signs of import stickers underneath the RM stickers - this is classic drop shipping where knock-offs are shipped to an address in the UK from places like China, then it is re-posted with an UK label. Usual practice for sellers who claim their items are based in the UK but arent really. Drop shipping is against eBay and Amazon ToS so this is their "workaround" although quite aggrivating thinking you'll get an item in around a week in the UK and it actually takes 4-6+ weeks to arrive.
That is a fake bag. You can tell by the stitching seams. The real ones have the pattern through out, and all connects, even at the seams, if you look at 16:51 you can see the top seam has the pattern abruptly end without counting to the other side of the fabric. They ALWAYS have complete LV logos that are not cut off ever too, and you can clearly see them cut off all over.
You can also tell by the plastic wrapped handle. LV would never wrap their merchandise in plastic or anything that cheapens the appearance. It would be shipped in a box surrounded by cloth for protection. But also it looks cheap as hell and is clearly fake.
The listing will have been taken down for violating eBay's 'chance listings policy' - "Mystery items or listings that offer an opportunity to win an item by chance or contest are not allowed on eBay." Basically, if you purchased a mystery box and wasn't happy with it, you would have a right (under eBay's T&C's for business sellers) to return it for a refund. There would be too many scams otherwise.
It's not buying the chance to win an item though, you're fully aware that you're buying 10 undelivered parcels. It's the difference between knowing you're buying a mystery box that might have something good or something bad and running a lottery. I think they might not like the fact that they're technically also selling addresses/sensitive information
@@lemolea9571 Mystery items are not allowed on eBay. A returned parcel is a mystery item, because you don't know what's in it. Here in the UK all business sales have to comply with distance selling regulations. If you bought a mystery parcel and weren't happy with it, you would have a legal right to return it. In the case of a dispute, how could the buyer or seller ever prove what was sent? If it was anything to do with addresses or personal information, then that would have to be covered in eBay policy, which it isn't.
The Louis Vuitton bag is definitely fake lol. You can tell by looking at the "O" stamped on the leather tag. LV always uses a thinner o whereas the fakes tend to use a wider one. There's also stitching directly on the LV monogram which is something you'll never see Louis do. It is a good dupe though, one like that would probably go for about $60 at a local shop by me
That plush braid thing is to put in a cot so that your newborn/baby don't toss and turn and get their limbs caught in between the openings or hit it. You can also use it to prevent your baby from turning by surrounding them in it
@@Zothiqueness I am well and I´ve had baby, that´s why I know newborns do not toss and turn, babies do and it would be dangerous to put the braid in, because they might suffocate. But if you call 20 year old a kid, than I understand it went over your head.

I want to know what the other item was. Lol
The Cisco-branded SFP-H10GB-CU1M cables seem to go for about $100 each in the US, so that's a pretty valuable find right there.
I'd have to look at the actual ones tomorrow to be sure, but the label looks wrong to me, so I'm guessing fake, used at minimum since it's not cisco packaging.
Mate, that is fake as hell. I work with them every day. I could tell from the start that they were cheap knockoffs.
since the originals are made in China as well, there's a good chance these are backdoor products, which is a common problem in China. When the factories close for the night, the copy pirates are let in through the backdoor to use the original molds etc to produce copycat products that look somewhat original, but aren't. It's one of the problems that come from having stuff made in a country that couldn't care less about copyright or intellectual property
If it's a UK to UK package, but with a customs tag, it's because it's a package from (probably) China that has been shipped to the UK as part of a large consignment. The consignment is sent to a UK processing facility, where it's given it's own (usually RM or Evri/Hermes, the so called "last-mile" courier) shipping label so it can finish the rest of it's journey. This is often done with items from AliExpress and other similar e-stores, to enable air shipping (10-20 days, sometimes faster) of cheap packages that would've been shipped by a service that'd take months, rather than weeks, before this became common practice.
Very true. I had a cyclist shirt from china delivered by Evri
Yup, everything I've ordered from AliExpress arrived like that - Royal Mail Tracked 48 label and the usual customs declarations.
Came here to say exactly this. I get a lot of crap from China!
Yes, I buy a lot of craft supplies and machine parts from "UK sellers" because I want the stuff quickly, not in 6 weeks time, and it is always like this... batch supplied from China to a warehouse in Stoke-on-Trent, then shipped to me.
Yeah, that's how everything via the standard AliExpress shipping option comes now. I made the mistake of picking Cainiao Super Economy for something instead a while back and that took over two months to arrive.

Surprised you didn't get more "naughty stuff" to be honest, years ago my wife worked in the offices for a courier/re-mailing company and they had a "undelivered dildo wall" in the break room🤣. Their theory was people would order these "items" for themselves without the knowledge of partners/family members and refuse the parcel on delivery out of embarrassment because they where not alone when it arrived.
It was quite an impressive collection, and not all of them where of "human" design😳.

I used to sell knock offs like that, you can tell because there’s plastic on a non leather handle, the dust bag is super cheap material and if you look inside the lining of an original is very silky and usually there’s a controlato card inside. That being said, your logo on that knock off is very original looking so it sells for more than other cheaper ones. I’d guess you could sell it for around $50. If you list it make sure to only say designer look alike. If you use LV in the description they’ll cancel your listing.
And this is why i was scrolling the comments, I knew he real ones are expensive AF but no clue on the off brand and what its worth is. Thanks!
It wasn’t when I did it years ago. It’s illegal if you sell it as that brand.

Never trust a customs declaration.
When I worked for a shipping company (that actually owned its own ship) we would ship anything that had a customs declaration, no questions asked.
We once got a full size shipping container delivered with a declaration that said it contained a single television. We still loaded it on board.

@@TyphonMar Not entirely harmless when you consider the plastic waste.
On the customs declaration thing: Often times these chinese companies that send non-orders to random addresses declare the item on the website, but then stuff some cheap crap into the box instead. So likely, they wanted to get a review/order for their cheap knockoff microprocessor, but didnt want to waste their merchandise, so they stuffed an EVEN CHEAPER blacklight into the box instead, hoping nobody would open the box and find out.
iirc its called brushing
This must be extremely common, because almost every single one of these packages had an incorrect declaration on it
Nobody is verifying customs declarations against reviews. From past experience they've done this to help dodge import tax on items £15 black light Vs £2 microprocessor.

When they have a label underneath and a customs declaration, that's a sign that it's from a freight forwarder. Chinese sellers ship a bunch of their products to UK/USA warehouses and then dispatch orders from there so it's not always directly from China.
Also not called for means it sat in some dusty sorting office for a while before Royal Mail bothered to return to sender.

Why not a cheap looking blow up flesh doll? Thematically it works with the bondage straps.

The customs declaration on the UK to UK packages is because it isn't actually send from the UK. If you order from AliExpress they will send it to a distribution center in the UK ( or wherever you live ) first, where it will pass customs. From there it will be shipped again, hence it seemed to be shipped from the UK
I thought it might have had something to do with the Northern Ireland Protocol
It's cheap for the seller to place an order with their supplier to send the part directly to the customer, it's but complete shit for the customers.
I ordered a part from Germany and had to pay an import fee since the part was sent from their supplier in fucking China instead of a country within the EU.
And had the package been lost - tough shit since the seller wasn't the ones who sent it and the supplier in China isn't the one who sold it, so...
@hd01 All those packages from Schiedam :)
As someone who buys a lot of things directly from China this everything shown all looks like they are directly from China, the blue / gray plastic bag is a big giveaway. I have also noticed a lot of it comes by Royal Mail with a UK return address. My guess is that there are warehouses in the UK where a lot of the stuff coming from China is sorted and relabelled and then set to their proper destination. And this stuff is just the stuff that fell through the cracks of the system with people putting in the wrong address, forgetting about them and not collecting them or even moving house the new occupants rejecting things that aren't theirs. I don't think these are connect to the fake reviews thing because these seem too large and bulky for that and they seem like thing people would genuinely order from China.
I think the return address might be from Hong Kong because they label a lot of stuff as "From your country" but put a mail house address on it to make you think it was shipped from "your country" when it was still shipped from HK. I've seen a lot of this on Aliexpress where they charge $5 to ship and it's still coming from China.
Yes often my stuff comes from China via the forwarding service 4PX so the items always have a UK return address
Normally when they do the fake sale thing they just send wheel weights.
@@Demiglitch Sometimes seeds, at least once knockoff sunglasses. It's basically an even more random version of Stuart's Wish videos, just random cheap tat.

Those are all-in-one DACs (direct attach cables) for short distances, as opposed to stand alone fiber/copper transceivers that need separate cabling. If they're 10Gbps SFP+ and not counterfeit the price would be accurate...otherwise really not worth the trouble.
It says Cisco but the red color on the connector makes me think it’s not legit Cisco.
Yeah this could be one hell of a deal
Yeah first thought when I saw them is those are worth a few quid.
This was simultaneously the most uneventful yet most suspenseful video I've seen in a while. Very nice work. 😁
You got 7 server cables! Those are expensive as heck!
Thanks for telling us approximately how much they're worth
Oh my gosh they go from like $100 to $400
IF those are authentic 10gbps Cisco DACs, maybe..
Seeing Ashens fiddle around in the straps before realizing what they were was wild
Not only did he get a Funko Pop, he got a bootleg Funko Pop. What an absolutely Ashens moment.
Isn't boot
Not a bootleg, is an official one
@@SytihTheMage It's either a bootleg or official Ezio Funko pops have really, really, really, *REALLY* shitty paintwork.
@@JomasterTheSecond I own this one and can confirm those first batches of funkos were like this 😅
@@SytihTheMage ...oh dear god, they used to be WORSE than they are now?! o_O
That Louis Vuitton bag is real and worth a million pounds.
This person is NOT lying
You knock so you must be telling the truth!
It could fetch a million pounds. It's not WORTH that.
Also no. It wont fetch a million pounds. The most expensive item is only in the hundreds of thousands of... dollars.
So hard luck there, mate.
@@happinesstolerant I read it on the internet so it MUST be true.
@@Unethical.FandubsGames Did you not watch the video and the joke ?
I flippin' love you Stuart...
I've been watching and subscribed for quite some time (If my YT channel age isn't an indication)
You have always been: an escape, entertainment, comfort, and hilarity.
You ALSO introduced me to Barry Lewis who provides tons of content!
Thank you Ashens for continuing to upload....I love coming back to find a repertoire of amazing content, growing.
Much love from USA.
Would have loved to see a series of these. It's oddly fascinating.
The dawning of what the "massive strap" was 😂
I did the same 😂
the cisco sfp cables can be worth a bit, at least as far as cables go. Mighty want to look into that :) And reagrding the guard bar. Might be one of those that put infront of the door if it has a gap. To stop wind coming through.
I thought the same- if they are cisco they're like 80-100 ...each!
A lot of supposed UK parcels show signs of import stickers underneath the RM stickers - this is classic drop shipping where knock-offs are shipped to an address in the UK from places like China, then it is re-posted with an UK label. Usual practice for sellers who claim their items are based in the UK but arent really. Drop shipping is against eBay and Amazon ToS so this is their "workaround" although quite aggrivating thinking you'll get an item in around a week in the UK and it actually takes 4-6+ weeks to arrive.
That is a fake bag. You can tell by the stitching seams. The real ones have the pattern through out, and all connects, even at the seams, if you look at 16:51 you can see the top seam has the pattern abruptly end without counting to the other side of the fabric. They ALWAYS have complete LV logos that are not cut off ever too, and you can clearly see them cut off all over.
I think that first of all it wouldn’t have been so poorly packaged
You can also tell by the plastic wrapped handle. LV would never wrap their merchandise in plastic or anything that cheapens the appearance. It would be shipped in a box surrounded by cloth for protection. But also it looks cheap as hell and is clearly fake.
Probably from one of those Chinese websites that sell "genuine" Versace jeans for like 35 US dollars. LOL
The listing will have been taken down for violating eBay's 'chance listings policy' - "Mystery items or listings that offer an opportunity to win an item by chance or contest are not allowed on eBay."
Basically, if you purchased a mystery box and wasn't happy with it, you would have a right (under eBay's T&C's for business sellers) to return it for a refund. There would be too many scams otherwise.
It's not buying the chance to win an item though, you're fully aware that you're buying 10 undelivered parcels. It's the difference between knowing you're buying a mystery box that might have something good or something bad and running a lottery. I think they might not like the fact that they're technically also selling addresses/sensitive information
@@lemolea9571 Mystery items are not allowed on eBay. A returned parcel is a mystery item, because you don't know what's in it. Here in the UK all business sales have to comply with distance selling regulations. If you bought a mystery parcel and weren't happy with it, you would have a legal right to return it. In the case of a dispute, how could the buyer or seller ever prove what was sent? If it was anything to do with addresses or personal information, then that would have to be covered in eBay policy, which it isn't.
There is no more soothing, nostalgic sound in this day and age than *DOO DOO DOO DOO DOO DOO hello!*
The Louis Vuitton bag is definitely fake lol. You can tell by looking at the "O" stamped on the leather tag. LV always uses a thinner o whereas the fakes tend to use a wider one. There's also stitching directly on the LV monogram which is something you'll never see Louis do. It is a good dupe though, one like that would probably go for about $60 at a local shop by me
That plush braid thing is to put in a cot so that your newborn/baby don't toss and turn and get their limbs caught in between the openings or hit it. You can also use it to prevent your baby from turning by surrounding them in it
Newborns do not toss and turn.
@@BJKage are you ok? I think your brain fell out somewhere.
@@Zothiqueness I am well and I´ve had baby, that´s why I know newborns do not toss and turn, babies do and it would be dangerous to put the braid in, because they might suffocate. But if you call 20 year old a kid, than I understand it went over your head.
@@BJKage I have had babies. They do not lay like logs all night long. You are insane.
Lol my first thought was ah I use those to keep the cold from coming through under my door 😅
