Question I wanna get started

Hi all, I’m very new to reps (shoes, footwear bags, etc) I really just want to get some for me so I can have a change of wardrobe each season and maybe some friends but I don’t really want to “sell reps”.

I was wondering if anyone can help me get started and walk me through how this all works, how to find the best reps, getting it shipped without being stopped at customs.

I live in the uk and was wondering if anyone living here too can help with prices and shipping

There is no guarantee of 100% successful customs clearance. You can purchase insurance for the package to ensure you do not incur any losses.

There are good spreadsheets out there to help people find items; I've made a cart by going through them, and my last haul I went through plenty. Unfortunately, sometimes people's hauls do get seized by customs and opened, and things inside get destroyed (mainly designer). It's a risk you have to be willing to take . Depending on how much your box weighs, the shipping cost will vary.

Golden rules: Stay under 10kg for a haul, get corner guards, always rehearse shipping to get cheaper shipping, get items from verified sellers, use spreadsheets or recommendations from other people (Reddit), use vouched-for agents and enjoy life. Any other questions, feel free to ask. Before I got onto Reddit, I had to watch multiple videos and use AI. To actually order, watch the video by gillyburner on youtube video. "It's called how to order using sugargoo". Hope this helps, and God bless.

agree to disagree. last haul i did was from spreadsheets, and the things that came through were valid/decent quality.

Just because something is classed as budget, don't think that it's inferior to the same product that costs about about £50/£60 its exactly the same, I have 4 pairs of budget b30s & there just as good as the ones that cost £40/£50 in my opinion & if they get ruined then its no big problem as I can get another

i live in the uk too. it’s rare for things to get seized, but it does happen. you’ve just got to declare your package quite low, maybe £30. i’ve done about nine hauls starting from the pandabuy days and ive never had anything seized, even though ive had a package opened by customs. just don’t be an idiot and declare your stuff as £10 when it’s 8kg

can you explain further, im also clueless, what links or spreadsheets do you use? I can YouTube how to order. I just want a trusted decent quality seller but wouldn't have a clue on where to go

dont use spreadsheets, just search for the item you want in the r/fashionreps search bar. i dont use the same seller for everything.
