    kahit ano ok lang yan basta ok ang pagka-gawa. branded man o hindi parehas lang yan. kahit sa shoes, basta tignan mo lang ng husto. kahit na ba original pa kung hindi naman naka-stitch ang top sa sole (dikit lang ng glue) e matatanggal din yan pag nabasa. pag naka-stitch ang top sa sole kahit ilubog mo sa tubig ok lang.

    besides, saan mo ba gagamitin? kung balak mo short time use lang e bakit ka maghahanap ng orig na mahal. like gamit mo sa garden pag sinisipag ka mag-tanim ng garden mo, e orig na nike pa ba suot mo? kung pambahay lang bakit branded pa na pajama o slipper suot mo, pwede naman bili lang sa tiangge.

    pero tama si ungas, pag dating sa car di pwede ang fake, dapat OEM.

    depende rin, pero sa damit bili na lang ako ng mumurahin na iba tatak, wag lang ung mga fake. ibang-iba sa orig e. sa sapatos sa orig na. mahirap matanggalan ng swelas habang nasa galaan. hehehe.

    tanong ko lang, kasi ung mga nike shoes ko. pagkatapos laban natatanggal ung swelas. hahaha. siguro na fake lang ako. pero dalawa na un e. basta halimbawa matagal kong hindi ginamit tapos nilaban, nung ginamit ko na halos matatanggal na ung swelas. sa cartimar ko nabili un saka ung isa sa metromall. siguro na fake nga ako. kaya ngayon hindi muna ako bumibili ng nike e. hehehe

    Di bale nang tatlo lang ang pang porma kong pantalon noon basta orig na Levis. Saka white shirts na Bradley Voorhees and Day, yun lang solve na ko.

    flakez. usually kapag nag YELLOW ang mid-sole ng sapatos, fake yon. May mga Made in France na Adidas noon na kapag nilabhan, nalulusaw din ang mid-sole. Dahil daw sa climate sa Pinas. Pero the mid-sole shouldnt turn yellow or off-white color.

    patience is a virtue...

    lahat ng branded may sale...and they stick to their schedule. handa ka lang ng moolah.

    Marlboro minsan nagbebenta ng malaking discount on items na ang defect lang naman ay tahi sa jacket (30% off). Jeans nila ang lambot at makinis, yon nga lang shoes nila nabiyak ang sole..


    being practical rules!

    sa mga marine engines, may mga imitation ng honda selling below 5,000 ang orig nasa 10,000 plus whew... pag-iisipan pa ba?

    we are into LPG business and we are plagued by fake (illegally refilled cylinders) and unfair competition. yung mga ganitong bagay siguro ang dapat iwasan. sabi nga nila manakawan ka na wag lang masunugan.

    ok lang siguro kung fake items basta depende sa gamit at pagagamitan. wag lang yung hazardous items or anything that has something to do with our health.

    A Filipino parked his brand new BMW in front of his office building, ready to show it off to his colleagues. As he got out, a truck passed by way too close and completely tore off the door on the driver's side.

    The Filipino immediately grabbed his cellphone, dialed the police, and within minutes a policeman pulled up. Before the policeman had a chance to ask any questions, the Filipino started screaming hysterically as some of his office colleagues reached the scene too. His BMW, which he had just picked up the day before, was totally ruined and beyond repair.

    When the Filipino finally calmed down from his ranting and raving, the policeman shook his head in disgust and disbelief.

    "I can't believe how materialistic you Filipino people are!" he said.
    "You are so focused on your possessions, that you don't notice anything else!"

    "How can you say such a thing?" asked the Filipino.

    The policeman replied "Don't you know that your left arm is missing from the elbow down? It must have been torn off when the truck hit you."

    "Oh my God!" screamed the Filipino.

    "Where's my Rolex!?"

    ang problem sa filipino ay masyadong brand conscious. kaya tuloy ang lakas ng market for fake branded products. yung tatak ang hinahabol.

    eh kung pang araw-araw lang, edi bumili na lang ng unbranded / generic / cheap products.

    katulad ng t-shirt. bili ng fake na nike shirt dahil pang bahay lang... ba't hindi na lang bumili ng mga generic na t-shirts?

    Kung gusto ko branded, I'll by the brand. Kung gusto ko generic, generic ang bibilhin ko. Pero fake hindi ako bumibili except kung magpatahi ako ng maong pagtapos lalagyan nila ng tag.

    When it comes to food, supplements, medicine, or anything that I have consume, ayaw ko ng fake at ayaw ko din ng generic. Meron din ako personal rule not to eat any delata gawa sa pinas, Malaysia or Vietnam. Sa vitamins, daming peke ngayon, kung hindi peke puro impurities naman.

    I don't patronize fake product since majority of them sacrficed ang quality.

    Usually hintay lang ako ng sale, para makatipid.

    dats korek. Pero hindi ako guilty kasi dame ko naman employadong sinu-sweldohan eh. Pati SS at Philhealth hindi ko dinadaya. Daming beses ko din sumakay ng tricycle araw araw. Dami ko namang pinapakinabang. Pero sa delata or packaged foods, I don't want to put my health on the line in the name of patriotism. Corrupt talaga dito. Pati health inspector daling ilagay. When was the last time may product recall dito?

    Besides, cornbeef and hotdogs are not supposed to be bright red
