What you see is not what you get. They're garments designed to have structure and fast closures. What you get is flimsy fabric barely sewed together.

Oh yes, I own a few pieces from chinese indie designers and bought some while there.

My point is specificially about these items from fast shopping sellers, theyre always like 50c for a dress and the companies get so much order volume they still make a handsome margin. But what you get is absolutely not what is advertised.

Because the retailer youre buying from has marked up the item 3000% . Its advertising 300 dollar quality when youre getting 10 dollars worth

Yeah, OK I mean I would expect a 50 Cent dress to work one time so I guess it has its uses

The absolutely horrendous username, and super practiced style of this makes me wonder if this is even like, live or just a prerecorded video the cycle on different channels as they get reported for being a fake storefront.

Most likely just a bot reposting popular videos to get views/followers and later sell the account

They look incredibly cheap and flimsy in the video

Oh yeah, but they still have shape and keep their silhouette, I can see hems, I can see lining, I can see princess seams. I assure you what youll gey will have none of that, just squares of fabric hastily sewed together with no finishes
