fake memorabilia also shows us that all this stuff is worthless even if real, Until that "expert" told the people their stuff was fake , to them it had value, it all has no value , only what your imagination gives it,
I've always told my children, "Value is a matter of opinion." What's so valuable to others my not be worth a dime to me. Most of the time it isn't and vice versa.
postersandstuff You can’t sue a website which does not directly sell a product , also most of these products aren’t bought on eBay , since eBay has a pretty good refund policy, you get refunded almost all the time and keep the item which arrived (If one arrived) if it wasn’t as described.
MF'S sold me a Mona Lisa signed by Da Vinci for £850, I felt so stupid after watching this, but it looked so real, it even had a singed photo included.
He was owed £11,000 (7:19) and it caused a serious cash flow problems... but then he had another £8.500 to pay to the face recovery company. *Stupidity is expensive!*
The problem with a lot of these tv-advertised kitchen appliances is that it's possible that the same Chinese factories might produce two versions of the product...a "good" one to be sold by the trademark holder and a less-able unit to be sold in cheapy stores. The plastic mouldings and parts are a bit of a give-away. At a very reputable department store here in Australia I was shopping for a new Microwave oven. I settled on a 900w convection unit with a known brand over here. Then I spied, on the other side of the aisle, a similar specification oven which only had minor cosmetic differences but looked almost identical to the pricier "brand" unit. So, on looking at the casing, the glass platter and the touch controls it was evident the two units had come from the same supplier only the department store generic brand unit was almost $40 cheaper. Upon enquiring with the department store head office I was told I was correct...both units came from the same supplier. So it's not always true that you are being tricked when buying something similar.
That’s actually true. Usually it starts the other way round though, many big names don’t actually make the equipment that you are buying at all, take Phillips for example. It’s just a brand. The supplier often pitches their product to the brand, either as a supplier or to use their brand name on a licensing arrangement. The brand will then look at the product and suggest changes, increase in quality etc to pass their own criteria. The cheaper store brand one often is the original product. The brand one being the revised edition.
Some good news! Faked clothing is often donated to charity after all branding labeling is removed. Brand new, often fashionable clothes are rare for the homeless and needy.
Anyone notice how low the fines and prison terms are? No wonder they do it. It is hardly a setback for someone without much education or future job prospects.
Lawyers do the same daily to PEOPLE who are desperate for JUSTICE....I was save by a friend from a Law firm by advising me not to use good money to chase Bad money...I too had already paid the Firm 7.5k chasing 65k
Hello Hello - Katrina - you are not supposed to leave your blender on for hours as you wander around your house!!! You just hit "pulse" for 10-20seconds. You are not supposed to leave it on while you clean your household. It's not safety checked for hours
18:04 Just because an item has Safety Certification marks doesn't mean it's a genuine item. The Safety Certification marks can be faked too, can't they? The only guaranteed way to buy a genuine item is to buy it directly from the manufacturer. For example, if you want a genuine Samsung, buy it from Samsung (or from its known trusted partners). If you want a genuine iPhone, buy it from Apple (or from its known trusted partners). Yes, it usually is more expensive to buy from the manufacturer, but it also comes with guarantees you won't find on the High Street.
Even from the store there's chances of getting fake trainers, cosmetics, and clothing it's happened many times where stores ended up with full shipments of fakes
The nurtribullet... ffs just buy a blender. for the price of a knock-off nutribullet you can buy a genuine high end blender. Most of these scams are just people looking to pay less... and as the saying goes "you get what you pay for"
OMG.... The Nutribullet is a bloody con anyway, it's just a glorified food processor. Just buy yourself a normal blender, much cheaper and does the exact same thing as the Nutribullet.
I keep getting counterfeit money..................every time I use the ATM. Like EVERY SINGLE TIME, and EVERY SINGLE TIME I go to the bank to withdraw money. They give me counterfeit money, backed by nothing. You guys should do a show about that.
Why do all the company owners always say "the fakes are much lighter than the genuine ones". Thanks buddy for that info, you'll need both to know that though wouldn't you!!!!!
I know this comment is a year old but I will still reply. Signed memorabilia is not always equipment directly used by the the signer. People often bring their own equipment to be signed to events where sports stars are. They will bring a new boxing glove or ball for instance, go to a signing, get it signed. Seeing how Ali died in 2016 there were plenty of opportunities for more modern equipment to be signed this way, not sure why this possible scenario was not obvious to you.
@@travellingcanuck8243 it was obvious. I was joking. He has signed all sorts of things not connected to boxing. Still buying signatures is stupid unless you have authentication.
@@benji219 What is obvious is your attempt to hold face for a comment that is really direct and to the point and has no semblance of being a "joke" unless your idea of humor is to base your punch line on a setup that makes no sense to start with and ends with saying someone deserves something based on your no sense setup. Then you mention buying signatures is stupid unless you have authentication which is a true statement imo as well but has nothing to so with your original comment, oh sorry "joke".
If anyone is a collector of autographs I recommend finding the name and address of their agent and sending a letter asking for an autograph. Alternatively, if you like a band, write a letter to where they are playing. You would be surprised how often you will get a reply. Certain Rolling Stones members are extremely kind, David Bowie was too. I wrote Bowie a letter when he was in 'Tin Machine' to a venue they were playing and he sent me a nice note and included 2 guitar picks with 'Reeves Gabrels' embossed on them. I really like meeting people and getting their autographs. It means a lot more than buying. It may be more difficult, but that's the point. Autographs are difficult to verify. A lot comes to common sense and basic research. Sean Connery, for example, doesn't sign James Bond photos. Most musicians won't sign guitars either. I personally would NEVER buy an autograph.
When you are paying a collection company over half of what you owed you'd be better off just asking the original customer for half or realize you're a sap and being taken advantage of.
The woman from the fake shoes segment who is a personal trainer/fitness instructor and teaches barefoot running has possibly some of the worst running technique I've ever seen, jeez.
The woman who collects Manchester United memorabilia said she wanted to use the money her parents left her on something that would remind her of them. So she decides to spend it on her love of football. LMAO
I nearly bought a channel handbag from eBay…..I wanted to see it first and we agreed to meet at the science museum in London…well it was clearly plastic and smelled like plastic …and the young Indian woman’s story was that a girlfriend had gifted it to her and she had no use for it…I had arranged to meet my son at the same venue and over lunch I was showing off that I had spotted the fake bag and saved the money…yes very clever he said…except that the young woman and her boyfriend knew that you had brought £500 in cash hoping it was kosher….and they might have mugged you…didn’t even cross my mind….I was pleased that he was with me…
Why is this type of case or individual prosecuted for whatever the case maybe, why do anyone need a celebrity signature shirt or short or whatever? But the councils are allowed to steal your vehicle or car on the road of UK for illegitimate Fake parking fines, and the police departments are in support Who's really claiming innocent out of the named above? I can't tell. Our policies and local authorities let us down and it's okay, no court to go to defend your case again in UK ! Very sad to relate!
When those people convicted of scamming people out of money can't pay it back, a sentenced should be based on a multiple year per their yearly salary. If they scam a couple hundred thousand and only get 5 years or so then it's just like they worked 5 years for a substantial amount of money. It really doesn't deter them from doing it. If its money they'd never make otherwise people are going to always do it
In Britain, if you are a crminal, you'll be a gainer anyway and if you are a victim, you'll never be fully compensated. The court fined the criminal only £2500 and the victim had no chance to recover her lose
The system could never be fair if this was just some little street gang commiting these crimes they would spend the entire sentence in prison. He is a criminal and a thief he shouldn't be getting away with it.
I recently bought some fake Bose headphones for $40 the genuine ones cost $395 The ones I bought are fantastic we are being ripped off by the genuine articles NOT BY VERY NICE COPIES!!!
The problem with the sports memorabilia market is that there are millions of fans and only a finite amount of genuine items and an even smaller amount of from the big names that is verifiable and authenticated so demand far outstrips supply and leaves a massive opening for the criminally minded and the mass of less savvy buyers make easy targets.
That's why it's best to stick with cards from licensed companies. The autographs will always be verified & have value in the market. There are tons of players signatures that vastly outperform the stock market, so it can be a good investment if you know what you're doing.
tv need some news and programe for their business....they show in this vedio sadaq and his sister but not show the footballer shirt signature may be he was british
We had a shop with signed things. There was two different photos with Mike Tyson signature. Both signatures was very different: one signed by right hand and another by left hand - that was my comment (((:
What is the prison sentence for illegally making a £1000000? If a mother can be sent to prison for three months for not paying an £80 tv licence. Robbing people of a million pound which is over 10000 times £80, that has to be worth at least 2.5 thousand years in prison!
I bought what I believed to be a genuine designer bag years ago. After much research I realised I'd bought a fake; yep, I'm an idiot. I sold it on with the clear proviso of how it'd been sold to me and that although it looked good, I couldn't verify its authenticity. I hope all of the poor buggers scammed on here have done the same; and maybe recouped a few quid. A lot of folk are happy to display/use something that 'might' be genuine. There are no winners here, other than the original scammers who get suspended sentences and tiny fines that don't equate to their scams. Fines they can negotiate to pay in pennies per week and can happily default on these too. 😕
Hi, I'm from the future where we're in the midst of a pandemic. Turns out a huge number of small businesses basically survive month to month and don't have much excess cash on hand. Anyway, I'm off for a go in my flying car.
This is why if I'm going to get something signed, I physically go and get it signed at conventions and stuff. I know it's real when I see the person signing it with my own eyes. Don't see why people spend so much money for a squiggle anyway, guess it's like people who pay loads of extra money for a brand. Edit - And you know that guy who had all the fake sigs on the guitars and shit is just gonna sell them and claim they're real anyway. That's one of the issues, people buy things, find out they're fake but sell them on as real anyway just to get rid of them.
Here is a tip for anyone who wants to buy stuff with signatures on them: Only buy worthless stuff , if you don’t have and will not have money problems in the near future.
Cant help to notice all of these people (exception of limited stuff collectors) buy products way below market price and not thinking it is to good to be true.
In simpler, happier times, Paulie´s grandpa would have all four Beatles sign pictures, and then start copying the signatures like mad on fake pics and sell them to the fans, and we would have a great laugh about it. It´s REALLY been a hard day´s night, and it´s getting darker by the minute ......
WARNING: if you ever receive anything of a serious nature, eg a debt collection offer, and it uses "Comic Sans" font (at 8:11), walk away and make a cuppa.
I don't think signaturs thar are sold can be memorabilities, cause customers won't have any memory of actually taking the signature. There should be some other words to name it. And I don't think that the real signatures would be sild just through the internet or stores. In some special communities (dedicated to celebs) or auctions - yes.
fake memorabilia also shows us that all this stuff is worthless even if real, Until that "expert" told the people their stuff was fake , to them it had value, it all has no value , only what your imagination gives it,
Not quite. "Something is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it"
Until it malfunctions, shortly after you've purchased it. Then it has no value.
paulspydar your absolutely right
I was just thinking this, lol
I've always told my children, "Value is a matter of opinion." What's so valuable to others my not be worth a dime to me. Most of the time it isn't and vice versa.
Inherited money and she goes to spend on footballers signatures stuff
😂😂😂🤦🏻♀️
🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yep... shallow
It's actually a good investment if you have enough knowledge to buy the right stuff.
All those people who were ripped off over 'memorabilia' were perfectly happy with their purchases before Trading Standards rocked up!
Or until they were forced to resell it because of sudden debt or financial loss, only to find out its worthless!
@@beth-rg8bm well if you are going to invest your money into such nonsense you probably had it coming.

K Me . I thought the same
K 1 Me
Well, he thought by investing some money on a debt collector, it tend would help to collect all the owed money back.
and that single transaction closed his entire business down...something is fake all right

boo hoo very simple. Maybe you're too young to understand but that's fine.
Sunk cost fallacy. Just a grand to recover 11 grand... just another grand to recover 11 grand... etc

No. David cameron is a twat Tory MP. Matt Allwright is a solid presenter.
Would Barclays use Comic Sans as their corporate identity font?
This is why if I'm going to get something signed, I physically go and get it signed at conventions and stuff. I know it's real when I see the person signing it with my own eyes. Don't see why people spend so much money for a squiggle anyway, guess it's like people who pay loads of extra money for a brand.
Edit - And you know that guy who had all the fake sigs on the guitars and shit is just gonna sell them and claim they're real anyway. That's one of the issues, people buy things, find out they're fake but sell them on as real anyway just to get rid of them.
Siddique means honest or truthful. The irony
34:26 well nnnnooo, sadly it won't 😁
Here is a tip for anyone who wants to buy stuff with signatures on them:
Only buy worthless stuff , if you don’t have and will not have money problems in the near future.
Cant help to notice all of these people (exception of limited stuff collectors) buy products way below market price and not thinking it is to good to be true.
Do they make barefoot running shoes for people with 6 toes?
Anyone that wears those hideous things deserves to be laughed at!
The fax was in Comic Sans 😂
If someone owe your money , don’t use debt collectors. Simply submit a claim through small claims court. Debt collectors break your back financially
Steve Pearson should've gotten a very lengthy jail sentence due to the scale of his operation!
it's Stacy from Barclays lol that's just a lollypop
In simpler, happier times, Paulie´s grandpa would have all four Beatles sign pictures, and then start copying the signatures like mad on fake pics and sell them to the fans, and we would have a great laugh about it. It´s REALLY been a hard day´s night, and it´s getting darker by the minute ......
WARNING: if you ever receive anything of a serious nature, eg a debt collection offer, and it uses "Comic Sans" font (at 8:11), walk away and make a cuppa.
I don't think signaturs thar are sold can be memorabilities, cause customers won't have any memory of actually taking the signature. There should be some other words to name it.
And I don't think that the real signatures would be sild just through the internet or stores. In some special communities (dedicated to celebs) or auctions - yes.
Did they have sharpie pens when Ali was boxing???
kek23k ali was signing stuff under contract well into the early 00’s
Thank you ❤
If they had acted after receiving the first complain, would have helped others too, instead of waiting for the complains to start flooding in!🤔
