I...loved...this...video. You guys have a great bantering style and your sense of humor (sorry, humour) is delightfully British. In addition, Jon's disdain for this junk has elevated my trust in his tastes. Jamie, you're awesome and have a keen eye for truly hideous garbage. 5 stars and two enthusiastic thumbs up from me.
Jon, this was absolutely brilliant! I've often heard of how that Wish site can be a completely blind dice roll, but strangely my curiosity still burned... but seeing your immensely informative video here, I think, has bolstered my wariness enough to keep me from danger LOL Thank you so very much, and do please carry on with your excellent videos - you are my **absolute** TOP favourite EDC channel! Oh, and yeah - if you've the stomach for going further down this rabbit hole, I'd be very keen to see what you two come up with next! CHEERS! 😄
Thanks for the really great feedback which is appreciated. We were interested to see what would happen too! I'm not sure I could cope with spending more on Wish.....
For the people that like the photo of the micro screwdriver set. It's called the "Xiaomi YDE-03702 Mijia Wiha Multi Tool 24 Precision Screwdriver Heads Anti-slip Alloy" And it is not expensive and VERY GOOD. To give an idea, the lpl, lockpick lawyer uses it. Just don't get it on wish 🤣
The best entertaining segment by far. It's different & definitely a step up. Jon, you may be a hundred pounds down but we all here having a million pound of laughter. Please, more of this kind of show, we want more of "The Jon & Jamie Show". Cowabunga matey. Greetings from Australia.
Amazing episode 😂 Definitely the funniest and most fun yet. You personalities really show! As I live in Israel and many companies don't ship here, or ship at a very high price (30$ and up) - and not to mention our terrible customs and postal services - I do buy quite a lot of Chinese EDC gear for one reason: To check out the gear. I don't buy from Wish, though. I buy from AliExpress, where costumer service is good and it shows reviews and pictures uploaded by people who really bought the products. It is also generally cheaper than Wish, for the same products even. For example I bought that exact knock-off key organizer. I hated it. Saved myself quite a bit of money. Found a different organizing solution btw. I feel most EDCers wouldn't want more episodes of this, as they are very passionate about supporting the rightful owners of the designs. Personally, though, I would really like another one!
@@ELaster1 I have only used Fruggo once so I can't really recommend them - I got onto them by Googling for a place to buy a Victorinox Midnite Manager at a cheaper price than on Amazon
Mostly tat as you would expect, but i've been carrying that Rovyvon A8x "homage" torch for quite some time now, and for price/function, it really is a bargain, I bought mine from ebay and have since gifted several to family and friends. At about £10 a go, they are great vfm compared to the equivalent Rovyvon. I've also tried that carabiner tool from ebay as well, it's not bad as a back-up, and is again an "homage" to a True Utility FIXR. The bags and pouches are ok actually. Maybe you should do a real budget EDC equivalents video, but go for better brands or ask for recommendations? Heinnie Haynes and True Utility are a good place to start, but I would avoid Wish always!
"I wouldn't give this to a friend." And then you gave it to him. LOL I was laughing so hard. That green bag with mollie looks like my chest rig that i got for $34. But mine comes with extra compartment and chest straps. It is a good product. I think you should do an occasional WISH video just to either warn people or compare it to the original. And sometimes to show off a really good deal and good product. Maybe make a "Budget Monday" video. LOL
As a Canadian, I must say, do it again. But let him have more budget. I will actually be looking into the selection of pouches on wish, specifically for camping/outdoors and travel because of this. I "Wish" I knew what else Jon's credit card can do to enlighten me lol
you know if you buy from wish you are probably getting what you pay for it. So I feel if your adventures you could find some amazing things that might surprise you.
Happy Friday Jon, Be careful what you Wish for! My goodness what a lot of junk, there is not one item that I would personally buy for EDC! You would been better off at the Oxfam shop looking for EDC gear !
Please don’t buy more knock-off junk that will end up in a landfill. That said, there are many items one can get which are more than worth their price tag. How about an episode with EDC gear found in thrift stores, Craigslist, freebie sources? I have found several items including an older Leatherman at garage sales. Good episode. 🌿
Those items were probably going to be bought by someone else and would end up in a landfill anyways. At least by Jon buying and showing us this items, people might be discouraged to acquiring them.
your karabiner multi tool is a copy of the true utility "Fixr" tool, it gets a surprising amount of use for opening boxes, the blade is meant to be used in conjuntion with a notch on the gold screwdriver portion as a wire stripper.
On this topic, Has anyone found any reasonably priced ECD pouches (not military, molly style) on Ali or Wish? 30 dollars for a glorified pencil case is not my cup or tea?
Yes yes, you have to try out more higher end goods to see that your money is well er yea well, it’s spent let’s say that hahaha 🤣. Great vid, go on, get some more “WISH” items, you know you want to….. Thanks 🙏🏻
17:05 Actually bought a cheap wallet on purpose to test it out but mine is real aluminium and carbon and triple the price (~20€). I liked the concept but wasn't really sure if it would work for me. I ended up going back to an regular but more leaner and smaller leather wallet than my old one and store the cards I not use every day in the cheap wallet. But yes I would have bought a real Ridge wallet if the cheap wallet had worked for me cause I think if you really like a product you should support the 'real' manufacturer of it.
This was fun, nice to see you two having a good laugh. But wish videos are not worth making, waste of money. I feel bad for your wallet 😢 I honestly just watched this because i saw you with a hammer with the wish logo 😆
We were keen to see what actually happens when you buy from Wish - I am hoping it will educate others and manage expectations when something looks too good to be true!
I’m glad you spent your money and not mine. However, I have purchased a few knock off Benchmade (ish) type knives that for the price wasn’t too bad. You just need to go into with your eyes wide open. 👍🇺🇸
I had that tactical pen. It fell apart in two months use as a writing pen. You will notice as well it fails as a tactical pen as it is sharp on both ends. You can't put your thumb on one end and deliver any force as a weapon.
That small pouch is a knock off on a OneTigris kompact Tac Pouch. I own the orginal one bought i a store several years ago. Just thought to let you know.
the upside is, you can likely get your money back for the items that arrived not as described. if you were to do a part 2 of this, i would say try aliexpress instead.
Thanks for a great video. After watching this I jumped on to Wish to have a look. I ordered a Rovyvon style keyring torch on 29 June for a total cost of £8.87 inc P&P. It arrived today and I rewatched your video to understand all the different modes. I usually EDC a 2x AAA penlight, so looking forward to trying this form factor. Planning to pickup a proper Rovyvon if I like it. Thanks again.
11:30 that's a familiar pouch 😂 I have one exactly like this but in black, strapped to the side of my hiking military backpack. Bought it at the local market in Ukraine, pretty sure it has originated from the same factory 😁
I bought 3 of the pens from Ali and am quite happy with them. They're fairly fat and full sized pens that take a G2 cartridge. Obviously they're not the same as a high quality tactical pen and are lighter, but I can take these anywhere and not worry about it getting lost. I've also ordered the torch which is yet to arrive.
I dont mind to receive what you didnt like or want. Those tools are good for small screws, the fany pack can be used for tools, the pen is good, the small flashlight is good, the key thing is usable for tools or alike. All god "iden" uses...
Good bit of banter, good video all round. Top pair of guys .. My only suggestion would be, if you guys do a video like this again, try and guess the price before the big reveal ☺️
Hilarious. "I feel robbed."... "Really? I feel okay about it.". Lol . This is fun you should do this again
Thanks 🤣🤣🤣
Definitely do more
Do it again
@@JonGadget but for 12 € you can FOR SURE get a used (or even new) victorinox
@@Basement_CNC Victorinox knives are literally the best bang for buck for any edc item imo.

This is probably the funniest EDC video I ever saw. Thanks Jon for making day. Kudos to your friend too.

If you have complaints, wish is quick with refunds
Jamie's kettle laugh just adds to the brilliance of this comedic duo. Would love another rendition of this format.
Thanks - I'm sure we can come up with more 👍
Yeah..The Jon & Jamie Show.! Soon to be picked up by BBC..😈😅😆😀😁😃
Jon, love the show. You guys are hilarious! Keep up the good work
Thanks David - great to hear👍
For the people that like the photo of the micro screwdriver set. It's called the "Xiaomi YDE-03702 Mijia Wiha Multi Tool 24 Precision Screwdriver Heads Anti-slip Alloy"
And it is not expensive and VERY GOOD. To give an idea, the lpl, lockpick lawyer uses it. Just don't get it on wish 🤣
Exactly - this was more about what we ordered versus what turned up!
@@JonGadget ye it was a funny video, hopefully people learned to not order from those scammers!
Love it. I often buy the cheap version of something I want. If I like it and use it, I upgrade, if not I've not wasted much.
I never thought of it as a testing groung 🤣
That's what I do

Oh no! - not a bigger budget!
Sorry Jon, but I would love to see another one of these WISH EDC hauls 😅
Oh dear! 😬
I own the mini flashlight, and can confirm that it's amazing value, and the firefly mode works for over 18 hours continuously
probably the best of this lot I would say
What is the model name?
you know if you buy from wish you are probably getting what you pay for it. So I feel if your adventures you could find some amazing things that might surprise you.
you might be right - but it could be a costly journey
Try aliexpress next
yes 👍
20:17 "How do you make something like this for 3 pounds?" Have you ever heard of modern slavery and concentration camps in China?
crazy!
You should donate them to charity and not break them for views. I get that they are trash but some people can't afford premium items.
thanks for the suggestion
The sun gives out about 127,000 lumens, so that flashlight is (allegedly) about 25,984x stronger than the sun
Happy Friday Jon, Be careful what you Wish for! My goodness what a lot of junk, there is not one item that I would personally buy for EDC! You would been better off at the Oxfam shop looking for EDC gear !
Totally! Interesting to see had bad it really is though!
@@JonGadget Happy Sunday John, dispose carefully of the junk you bought its probably all made of cancerous material !
I feel you should buy more. You might actually find something nice
😳 more!
Please don’t buy more knock-off junk that will end up in a landfill. That said, there are many items one can get which are more than worth their price tag.

Entertaining! LMAO. I've got a better place for that! Lol
We had fun!
your karabiner multi tool is a copy of the true utility "Fixr" tool, it gets a surprising amount of use for opening boxes, the blade is meant to be used in conjuntion with a notch on the gold screwdriver portion as a wire stripper.
Quality over quantity! Reliable gear is important, if it fails when you need it most you will Wish 🤣 you had bought better 👸🏼
Yes, completely - an the opposite of what Wish delivers!
I’d like for you guys to the same thing with Temu! Loved this video! You guys have a lovely, humorous banter.
😂😂😭FINALLY!! Another guy who, like myself, is not into Star Trek 😁
Haha, hilarious! They spend all their coins on Photoshopping their images! I need to see more crap from wish please!🙏😆
I started my EDC "career" with WISH crap. dropped that acct. quickly.
On this topic,
Has anyone found any reasonably priced ECD pouches (not military, molly style) on Ali or Wish?
30 dollars for a glorified pencil case is not my cup or tea?
Look at Helikon Tex👌
depends on size - Maxpedition not bad but, might be approaching that price - Helikon Tex already mentioned
Yes yes, you have to try out more higher end goods to see that your money is well er yea well, it’s spent let’s say that hahaha 🤣.
Great vid, go on, get some more “WISH” items, you know you want to…..
Thanks 🙏🏻
Oh good!! 🤣
I'll take that small keychain "torch" if you want to send it
Jamie kept it all - he gets paid in crap from Wish!
Not interested in cheap knockoff products. Back to quality please
Can you Link the 9 billion lumen light? Lol. I just want to take a look at it.
I'll have to ask Jamie for that one!
Did you spell it ECD on purpose you know because wish stuff is often fake?
I wish that was true!
Loved it🤣try it again with alibaba. Very entertaining
not a bad idea......
Haha, very good video. An idea could be to compare side by side the real one versus the fake one.
good idea, although could be expensive....
I would never buy a Geoff Tate T-shirt since he spat on his own band members.
yeah... I regret my experience with 'wish' as well. It left me wishing I never did.
You need to do a £108 edc video to compare, “what you could of won”.
good idea
I never seen so much tat since looking in my edc draw this morning 😂😂😂, up the budget 💚💚👍👍
lots of pressure to up the budget!
17:05 Actually bought a cheap wallet on purpose to test it out but mine is real aluminium and carbon and triple the price (~20€). I liked the concept but wasn't really sure if it would work for me.

Speaking of cheap knock offs....nice Geoff Tate t-shirt.
I've had the tech bag for years. It's attached to my backpack. It was perfect when I was a computer tech. Mine is well built and sturdy.
I’m glad you spent your money and not mine. However, I have purchased a few knock off Benchmade (ish) type knives that for the price wasn’t too bad. You just need to go into with your eyes wide open. 👍🇺🇸
good to know.....👍
Ecd items ?
It's a joke on wish having fake items so a play on edc
😁
Jaime's Queensryche tshirt 👍
er...good 👍
I think we need at least 10 grand to really make a good judgement. See if they have any WISH diesel engines or home appliances.
🤣🤣🤣
Yes! I Wish to have some more, please, sir! ;)
oh good!
Hilarious. Love the vid.
It's mind-boggling how Wish continues to operate. There should be a worldwide ban on this horrible shop.
It is totally weird - hard to believe in fact
Your boss will be amazed on how you spent (at least) a daily wage 😅
I had that tactical pen. It fell apart in two months use as a writing pen. You will notice as well it fails as a tactical pen as it is sharp on both ends. You can't put your thumb on one end and deliver any force as a weapon.
That sums it up nicely!
Yeah do this again! Good double act 🤪
OK.....
Awesome funny video you guys did! Please do more like this!
Great to hear - I think we will 👍
You guys made me laugh tonight. Loads of shit!!! That screw driver set could be used for wind chimes!!!
🤣 glad you enjoyed it
great idea for a video, a good bit of fun.
we have fun making it
that gave me a laugh , especially the 3 billion lumen torch .. but please don't buy more cheap land-fill fodder
Great - at last, someone who doesn't want more of this!
This was so entertaining, thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it!
3+2 £ on wish for that key thing? Bought one just like it fot 2+0.70 $, on aliexpress. :)))
might do an ali express version
Hahahahahahahh i really love this type of vids ... funny and entertaining well executed my friend hello from puerto rico.
Glad you enjoyed it - greetings Puerto Rico 👍
That small pouch is a knock off on a OneTigris kompact Tac Pouch. I own the orginal one bought i a store several years ago. Just thought to let you know.
Good to know - doesn't surprise me
the upside is, you can likely get your money back for the items that arrived not as described.
if you were to do a part 2 of this, i would say try aliexpress instead.
it's on the list......
I have to say as someone who designed a product that has knock offs on Wish and all over, I appreciate that you wouldn’t want to use a knock off.
You're right - I have a strong aversion to knock offs as I've seen so much of it over the years is my past life
Thanks for a great video. After watching this I jumped on to Wish to have a look. I ordered a Rovyvon style keyring torch on 29 June for a total cost of £8.87 inc P&P.

This was great must do a round 2
😳 may be we should!
The fake OrbitKey actually as durable as the real one! Has been using it for 5 years with no issue, and more reasonable price also
yes - was well made relatively
Great idea! Do this again. 👍
I think we might have to!
Complain to Wish. Keep Complaining and you might get your money back.
I think we probably got our monies worth in entertainment content
tbh i've used that screwdriver set for close to a year fixing smaller things and even repair a watch and had no problems with it.
It was more about the difference between what was order and what arrived!
This is the worst! The video is very valuable. Hopefully it will keep others away from this stuff.
Good to know what happens!
Benchmade 940 for 29 dollars!! A clone...have to look closely.
interesting....
Hey John you should do I new edition from “Temu”
“ A retched hive of scum and villainy.” Cue the Star Wars Cantina music. 😁
well spotted 👍
I will say one good thing about wish is if you do get something that is junk they just refund you. No needing to ship it back.
worth knowing
I think he just wants to make you happy. Give him a chance, let love in! It’s beautiful
😂
Great video. Really enjoyed it. More budget please.
Thank you! Will do!
11:30 that's a familiar pouch 😂 I have one exactly like this but in black, strapped to the side of my hiking military backpack. Bought it at the local market in Ukraine, pretty sure it has originated from the same factory 😁
I think that is very possible!
If you do another one, do it with a comparison to legit product to show why maybe spending more is better
nice idea
I'm not the only one that would like to see more gear from wish before I buy it. please get more so I will know if I should get it.
I'm sure we will do more in the future
Buy more WISH crap with a larger budget. Fun video!
Oh good, Jamie will be pleased 🤣
Be some ball and next time give him 10000e to buy you things so we can all laugh together like now
don't make me spend more...
Was that a reference to star wars? When obi wan says you will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy
Yes! 😀
This is quite funny!
Good 👍
In the Wish picture of the small green pouch, it showed the exact same pen you got
I spotted that too!
Need more very funny
thanks for the feedback 👍 will try!
I actually have the pen it's OK it ran out decently quick but it's a solid peice
thanks for feedback
Excellent 💚💚👍👍
thanks

ok will do 👍
Buy more "rubbish" from wish...it was so entertaining 🤣
ok - I think we will!
This guy chose the best stuff from wish.
Your guy Jamie likes great music. Keep up the great work Jon
really?? I'll let him know 🤣
I dont mind to receive what you didnt like or want. Those tools are good for small screws, the fany pack can be used for tools, the pen is good, the small flashlight is good, the key thing is usable for tools or alike. All god "iden" uses...
just different to what we ordered in some cases 😁

good idea 👍 thanks for the feedback
@@JonGadget No problem. Keep up the great work 🤙 you guys are fantastic
On 10:46 sites gives you option so you can choose between style A and style B.
both very different to the nicked picture though!
i have the pen and the pouch. both are good for the price. i got mine for cheap on ebay though.
interesting....
We do call it a Fanny pack. 😂
