The average price for MIJ and MIE are SGD $89.90 to $99.90 each at modperry.blogspot.com. For postage of 1-2 items: $5.00 by SingPost registered mail. Anyone purchase from them before?

Dont help them to advertise. This blogshop was raised up a few months ago. We are certain that they are selling fakes, most probably from HK ebay. A few of us have tried to tag on their tagboard to warn others of this, and the blog owners banned our IP to stop us from tagging. I know because I tagged before

It sounds fishy just from the fact that they dont do meetup.

History:
...

PLS DO UR PART TO POST THIS on the tagboard of modperry.blogspot.com to expose this fake seller " THESE FRED PERRY ARE FAKES , FROM EBAY just go to ebay and look it up it's only going for ard 40+ but they are imitations . BEWARE" cause the loser go and ban my ip address. ! DO UR PART , to keep it real and prevent ppl from gettin cheated.

as per wad rahman mentioned... if you notice the site, all the peektures of the polo ish cut n paste from all over the net, esp from Japan e-shop sites. Def not a gd guage if they are selling auth or notch. anyway if chiu wana pay $90+ for it might as well pay slightly more n get from asos or fp.com.

no pt buy liao, keep asking if auth or not auth... once u noe u hoot a fake one just trying to save $20-$30? worth it boh?

anyway thanks to RandomGuy for brining up that shop for everyone's attention too.

I'm repeating my post for the public good.

I find a seller whom I believe he is getting his stock from, or from the same source as said eBay seller.

This 'MODPERRY' appear to be closely related (although he is selling the polos for about 2x to 3x as much). I infer this from several points. Firstly, the measurements he provided(chest, sleeve and length) for two different shirts and two different sizes, are exactly the same as those given in the listings of a Hongkong eBay seller. Secondly, they both offer more or less exactly the same designs and styles. Thirdly, the pictures he uses on his site are exactly the same as those used in the Hongkong Ebay seller's listings except he did a bit of Photoshop to make it look more presentable.

Of course, possibly none of this means anything, and all of this could just be a mass of coincidences.

I am not saying that what the he is selling is unauthentic. What I am saying, however, is that you may not be getting as good as deal as you imagine, for what appears to be the same product. If he is really sourcing from Ebay, why must we buy from him and let him profit 2x - 3x? Might as well buy ourself.

hahahaha i saw me being mentioned... anyway pls do not sarrpork them! they are peddling fakes. as the saying goes... if its shooo cheap, something wrong wib the clothes.

 

[ngch0066]

Gosh, thats really bad of them. This is as scary as thosE MIP one. Thank you ngch0066 for digging the history posts!

How about thisThey've a wide range of FP from the M12 laurel style to limited edition FP x CDG and priced between $75 to $110.

To me they seems ok since they've registered company and have a decent e-commerce shopping website.

Any gurus can advise if these polos are genuine Fred Perry?

The pics they have are from the web, not taken from the actual pieces they are selling. Cant really say much without seeing the actual tag/wash tag/size tag. It does raises doubts if u see $35, $40 AnF polo, $50 Lacoste, and their ladies' range of RL.

Being registered doesnt mean they only sell authentic stuff. If they are not FP guru, they might not even know whether the supplier give them authentic FP or not. I am reserving my judgement..

A sidenote: you have been doing a lot of searches for online stores selling FP! *impressed*

 

[MetalStitch]

I think perhaps Rahman can offer some insights onto this since he seems to be the most knowledgeable here. However based on what i know, even CDG x FP do go on sale. I've seen them go for 35 GBP on Triads previously before. So it's not entirely uncommon if you do find cheap CDG x FP online. However they are heavily counterfeited and thus the possibility of fakes is highly possible.

Thanks

I asked the lady over there, she said could be done but she charged $30 and above for altering those

 

[invisible.hippo]

Fred Perry

[shihoro]

uhh but have to note the shipping from fredperry.com
i think its pretty steep
unless u share, i wont quite be worth the while

point noted.
but i reckon no one will just buy a piece alone and pay for the shipping himself.
confirm will share here or there huan.
unless really rike the polo la. that huan nothing to say. haha.

 

[warexpert]

hey must give her credit
haha im not advertising for her
but uhh hugo boss and ck all send their alterations to her to do...so i must say shes really good?
i let her alter the lengths of my nudies the last time
it turned out great
really put in effort to ask if i want to wear it with shoes or slippers, etc
