Six months ago, a bunch of these channels got hit with this massive lawsuit.
where I was like Nike and I think a couple others like just sued all of these creators, content creators.
So that's always cracks me up because prior to that,
I've had a couple of buddies who, and straight from China, like all of us from China, and they'll literally have somebody they can contact in China for let's say sunglasses, like Oakley sunglasses or something.
And they're like, listen, I like them, but you're giving me plastic lenses.
I'm gonna need actual, like they're almost perfect except the lenses.
They'll tweak the lenses and can you give us glass lenses?
They have to be glass.
And they'll go back and forth to get the product exactly the way they want it.
And then they just start buying them.
And I'm like,
if you're, and what they'll do is they'll sell them like Instagram or something and they'll put them up for sale and like, you know, at a discount, you know, say that they're supposed to be 800 bucks, they'll put them up for,
300 bucks and people, you know, come out, you know, then they'll deliver them or they'll mail them to them or whatever it is.
And I'm like, if you're going to be that brazen, why don't you just start up, start a website with a whole store?
Like why, why?
I mean, you're, you're pretty brazen anyway.
They're like, nah, because this way I, I go and I drop them off.
And, and if I'm afraid they'll track it back to me and I, they pay me cash or they'll do cash app and the cash app is in somebody else's name.
And it's just like,
But they are making a ton of money because they're buying these things for like $17, $12, and they're selling them for $400.
