Specifically, I kept seeing stuff about Dolce & Gabbana… and like, Burberry kids’ clothes? But then also ads for just… random stuff? It was all so confusing.
But the D&G belt thing caught my eye, ya know? Dolce & Gabbana! Fancy! Only… it’s being sold as “overrun stock” for, like, a *fraction* of what a real D&G belt would cost. And honestly, the ads sound kinda sketch.
Okay, so what IS “overrun stock” anyway? Apparently, it’s like… clothes or accessories that are leftover from a factory that makes the real deal. Maybe they made too many, or maybe they didn’t pass the quality control for the *actual* Dolce & Gabbana store. That’s what the ads were saying, at least. One ad, the one that was trying to sell Burberry kids clothes, even had like a billion emojis and said “This is authentic ™️Original overrun.” Like, chill, dude!
So the ad I saw about the D&G belt was offering it for like… ₱180 retail, and even cheaper if you buy a dozen. Seriously?! That’s like, what, five bucks? A *real* Dolce & Gabbana belt costs hundreds, if not thousands.
Here’s my take: It’s probably not legit. I mean, come on. If it sounds too good to be true, it usually is, right? It *could* be that they’re slightly imperfect, but I’m willing to bet it’s either a really, *really* good fake, or it’s just something totally different that they’re trying to pass off as D&G.
I mean, I’m not judging anyone who buys this stuff. If you want a belt that *looks* kinda like a D&G belt for five bucks, go for it! But just don’t delude yourself into thinking you’re getting the real deal. You’re not fooling anyone. Well, maybe you’re fooling *yourself*, but you get my point.
And that’s the thing that kinda bugs me. These ads are preying on people who want designer stuff but can’t afford it. It’s a little bit… icky, ya know? Like, just be upfront and say it’s a dupe!
