John Bodoy just made a video on his channel about his experience ordering a Big Eagle from Classic Shields. Just search his name on UA-cam and you'll be able to find it.

    C4 redesigned their belt earlier this year and while it's still noticeably off, it looks a lot more like the original Crumrine. Many of the flaws you pointed out in this video have been fixed. Still not worth over $4,000 IMO. I wish Conrad would just allow the original belt to be cast/scanned and sell exact copies because I want an exact copy of the original (without the bent top). Until a 100% accurate replica of the original Crumrine is up for sale (Classic Shields Premium is the closest, but there are still a few inaccuracies that bug me and I don't want to wait two years for it), I'm sticking with my Shoprine. I've replaced the stiff fake leather strap with a real leather strap (though I got a black one instead of Cordovan brown), polished the plates and got two custom nameplates (One Jeweler style and one trophy style. The trophy one is better though since the gray on the jeweler is too dark). I also plan on getting it restoned at some point since one of the stones on the crown is chipped, but that's hardly noticeable except in certain lighting.

    I was recently screwed over for a second time by MOC belts. I have a few videos up about my experience first hand with Fahad at Moc belts. Long story short. I ordered 2 belts from moc belts originally in Dec of 2019. I paid for a 4mm, 4 layer AEW World and i paid for a 4mm WWF Undisputed V1. Took a year and alot of back and forth but got the AEW (arrived broken). When i opened it plates were coming off but i never received my WWF Undisputed V1. Waites another 6 months longer and than Fahad blocked me. Fast forward to Dec 2023 and Fahad reaches out to one of my different IG account, asking me to buy. I explained he scammed me in 2019/2020 and he apologized profusely and promised be would send me that belt. Went back and forth again quite abit and he pulled the same nonsense so I made real time videos and posted them on all my Social media platforms IG, FB, YT, Tik Tok, etc. apparently that angered him that he blocked me amd ghosted me, saying i can make all the videos i want and he will never send me the belt. Now Fahad claims that his middle man took the money and apparently ran off with it and thats the reason I never got my undisputed v1. I don't know how thats my fault since he was the one that appointed this guy as his official middle man to send payment to, but due to that is another reason why i have not received my belt. But i never got a refund or anything sent to compensate for sending him payment (that fahad told me to send the money to) Hes been messaging me asking me to remove the content in exchange for my order (as if he is gonna actually send me the order) but i ain't falling for that trick a 3rd time. So its mid July 2024 and i still do not have my WWF Undisputed V1. Message for all of you, Don't ever buy from MOC Belts, i am not the only one thats had this happened to. Just check UA-cam for moc belts and see what comes up.

    I think the sad thing about Dave Millican, outside of his obvious scamming, is he's the guy who owns the rights to reproduce all of Reggie Parks' belts if I understand things correctly, and that's such a shame because Reggie really was the best belt maker ever, and his legacy deserves better than this.

    Mr. Cynical can I ask an unrelated question? Having never dealt with anyone in Pakistan, do most of them accept PayPal? That seems like a safe way to do business.

    • @Mr.Cynical92
      @Mr.Cynical92 21 день тому

      @dougmeyers I think in terms of artwork and size, it's pretty accurate. Where it lacks is in its weight and materials. You're not going to get real 24K gold plating, you're going to have to buff or clear coat it to get it to shine. Also, WWE isn't using sterling silver, so it'll be a lot lighter than the actual Crumrine. Also you're not going to get real leather with WWE Shop. It's a nice replica, but Arosha and Classic Shields get you closer to the real belt.

    • @thecarolinabull01
      @thecarolinabull01 4 дні тому

      I'd say it's about 75-80% accurate. More accurate than any other Big Gold apart from Classic Shields Premium, which is about 90% accurate. I have some gripes with it, but it's all I could afford and it's the most accurate Big Gold you can get for less than four figures. Though I would definitely recommend replacing the fake leather strap with a real leather strap and polishing the plates.
