SUBCREW or SUB(S)CREW ?

SUBCREW brand already screwed by the Malaysian retailer.
From a very high profit margin to almost rock bottom cost price.
It's time for the consumers to take advantage of the price war between Boundlezz, RUM and CUBE.

First by BOUNDLEZZ
Cap RM 169 each

Second by RUM
Cap / T-shirt RM 150 each - 2 items for RM 270

BOUNDLEZZ fought back
Cap / T-shirt RM 125 each - 2 for RM 220

CUBE joined the fun
Cap / T-shirt RM 150 each - 2 items for RM 270

RUM returned the favour
Cap / T-shirt RM 125 each - 2 for RM 220 and now 3 for RM 300

Will Boundlezz and CUBE fight back with more lower price ?
We just wait and see. Now SUBCREW become SUB(S)CREW in Malaysia.
Screwed by the retailer themself.

Will Boundlezz use the same tactic again saying the stuff from Cube and RUM is fake?
My advise for Boundlezz is dont use this anymore because RUM got the stock about the same time with you and fake wont be that fast to produce. Think some better reasons now ! The winner now is RUM with the cheapest Subcrew in Malaysia

CLOT

Will CLOT coming to Malaysia soon ?
Prepare yourself for C L O T
WHERE ?
Keep on checking my blog for the latest update !

MY PREDICTION

As my question on who is going to be the next closing their store?

Boundlezz
They are very slow in their reselling business due to the slow in economy and all their water fishes already graduated. Boundlezz only depends on one brand called Subcrew and now RUM also brought in Subcrew and selling cheaper than Boundlezz and their stock is more faster than Boundlezz. Too many backstab will only kill yourself.

What's Good?
Badboyben is too rich. His new found hobby - Modifying cars. Your Subaru look great and you must be spent a lot of time to make it look good. What's Good business is not that good due to the lack of new stock. If Badboyben keep on playing with his Subaru and do not take good care of his staff I think this shop going to close next year the latest.

RUM
Rich kid on the block! If he continue let others people keep back stabing RUM, he will close his store in 6 months. They do not have many stuff from my last visit. No place for them to advertise or update their customers on the new arrival. Thanks to me that made them banned from Streething and sorry to Ranson that I do not mean it. Even you do not know who I am but I would like to apologise. Bringin more Taiwan's retail brand will help them to survive and if they do not becareful of Boundlezz they will close the store in 3 months. Boundlezz is too dangerous to play with.

CUBE
No new stock after the AngPau fever. Shop always remain closed. If these continue to be like this CUBE will be 'tapau' before mature after reborn.

I honestly wish all the stores above best of luck and I do not wish to see any of the shops closed down.

Who will survive from this economy crisis and how ?

GOOD BYE SHOWROOM - JB !

Went to Singapore last week for a business trip. Have some free time and walk around in City Square - Johor Bahru. To my surprise the staff there is packing all the goods. This is the 3rd street wear shops closing their store in this year.

Who's next ?

R.I.P SNEAKERS

From The Summit to Subang and SNEAKERS is officially closed their door and rest in peace. They got almost all the brands of sneakers but I do not know why they cannot get the Nike account. Perhaps someone is afraid of healthy competition and Nike should open more accounts so that all the sneakers heads have more options to buy.

The question now is the economy really that bad ?

I wish you boss of Sneakers best of luck in whatever you venture into. We are waiting for your come back ! R.I.P

Dream Come True

No update for a while. A new project keep me very busy.
To my surprise I saw this when I come back from the States.




Thanks to mum and dad for getting me this. Finally a dream come true.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY WHAT'S GOOD?

ECONOMY CRISIS?

Economy crisis? No! At least not for Sole What? They are working double hard this year by opening another store soon. My guess the shop will be located in Sg. Wang Plaza. 99% the location is confirmed by Joshua Tan unless they suddenly pull out. But I guess it wont because the renovation is almost done. Some said they will open in Times Square. But this will not happen because :

1. Times Square do not have the human traffic.
2. Too many enemies in Times Square ( from my observation )
3. They are good friends of Boundlezz, so they choosed Sg. Wang Plaza.
4. All the streetwear shops should have one shop in Golden Triangle !


No more guesses and no more surprise now !
You may leave comments if you think they open elsewhere.

SHOWROOM : Return Of The Kuat Kuat Sale

Received an email today and came to my surprise Showroom is the next one who doing the sale. Will pay a visit this weekend to find out how strong is this sale since the last sale is quite strong. Now, the question is who is the next going to have sale ? Sole What? or What's Good ?



ps - the man in the poster is stronger than the previous one.

SNEAKERS : Sales With Instant Rebates

I think time is really bad. After SoleWhat? with the silence sale. Now SNEAKERS came out with a sales with instant rebates. You purchase anything after the discounted price and on top of that you get an instant rebates as well.

Which store will having a next sale ... ? SoleWhat? should be the next one having the sale because most of the brands is same as SoleWhat? It's time for bargain hunters.

CUBE and BOUNDLEZZ is under investigation by Joshua Tan

Congratulations on the success of the Tikam King and Cow Year Lucky Bag. I still think if Bouldlezz name it as 'OX' year will be better. Anyway, I went to both promotion. Both of them have their own customers. BUT I am very suspicious about how both of them run the promotions. I almost finished my own investigation and will try to publish the result asap.


to both of the stores :

the worse thing to do, in times like these, is to panic !

ZERONINE

Time is bad. I mean really bad. Did some windows shopping last week. To my surprise the first streetwear store that closed down in 2009 is Zeronine. I wonder who is the next ?

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOSHUA TAN

Today is my birthday. Happy Birthday to me.

TIMES SQUARE vs. SUNGEI WANG?

I think this is the battle of the year between streetwear stores in Times Square vs. Sungei Wang ? Who will win the battle ? We all will know on the eve of Chinese New Year. What is the odds ? Here is some of my very simple calculation based on their flyers info.

BOUNDLESS

3 main prizes = Levis Fenom Crush 6 , Visvim Christo and Visvim Bag

RM 388 = RM 200 voucher + secret item + cap + tee or pant

RM 388 = RM 0 voucher ( force to buy tactic = NO GOOD ) + (hopefully not so called " gucci belt ") + RM 50 + RM 50 or RM 80

You pay RM 388 and you confirmed getting RM 100 or RM 130 of stuff.
You lost RM 288 or RM 258

_________________________________________________________________


TIMES SQUARE ( CUBE x KROOKZ x SHOWROOM x RUM x CROSSOVA )

3 main prizes = Levis Fenom Crush 6 , Air Max 1 Clot Kiss of Death , Undercover Jack Purcell

I start with

RM 250 = 1 exclusive tee + 2 tees + angpau / 1 vans + 2 tees + angpau / 5 tees + angpau
RM 250 = RM 50 + RM 100 / RM 100 + RM 100 / RM 250

You pay RM 250 and you confirmed get back RM 150 or RM 200 or RM 250
You lost RM 100 or RM 50 or breakeven ( but you have a chance to get prizes with their angpau )

RM 100 = 2 tees + angpau
RM 100 = RM 100
You breakeven + you get a chance to win some of their prizes in the angpau.

So the conclusion is Times Square shops win hands down.

Buy RM 100 pack is more worth than RM 250 pack but again we do not know where is the big angpau. RM 100 or RM 250 ? I will go figure out soon.

* i assumed all the tees is worth RM 50 , shoes RM 100 , caps RM 50 , pants RM 80

HEARING / SEEING. GOOD IN - BAD OUT

I just dont understand why most of the people would like to hear and see only good things in their life ? Even whatever we talk or do is good for everyone but the particular person think is not right they will do whatever to not listen or see. For e.g. ( the real one )

I post something in Streething regarding the Cow Year Lucky Bag in Boundless. But I immediately get banned without any solid reason.

*NOTE*Joshuatan banned and all his posts trashed.We have established a pattern from a certain group of individuals that constantly engage in pointless flames, we thought after a while they would just get bored and let things rest.But no, they just keep going on and on like some f**kin' neverending story.So from now on people who start shit like this will be deleted without warning, we have tolerated this nonsense for long enough.

*ANOTHER NOTE*To those who insist on repeatedly signing up to start shit, we ain't got time to keep banning you.So if it continues we will just go to the 'root of the problem' and remove it from this forum.Interpret that how you will, if you have a personal problem with a store and want to have war with them, don't f**kin' do it on our property.This is a forum, but your father ain't paying for it.Thanks.

I knew that is ain't my father paying for the forum. But as a "good moderator" you are too good to become a moderator. How much Boundless pay you to banned me ? Just because I do a simple calculation and you think it will effect the sale of the con people Cow Year Lucky Bag from Boundless ( i hope i got such power ) then you banned me for just like that ? Again I said people just want to see what they like to see. When something is ugly then just could not face the fact.

Boundless have a good relationship with Streething so whatever problem that face by Boundless someone will cover for them. It is OK to be bias but TOO BIAS is not good.

Good people you thought is bad, the bad one you think is good.
FACE THE FACTS !!

ps - I just hope the one who banned me is not kzzit because I heard he is an one nice guys without bias.

Dope Distribution Trucker Cap

After 2 years released the DOPE caps. What's Good did it again this year 2009 with another 2 colors. Reflective Dope Red and Reflective Dope Black.

Do you think that Dope Distribution is over doing the cap until from so called " Limited Edition " to now unlimited edition ? I really dont know. But I still find this cap is the best colors among all the colors. The color look more peaceful.

WELCOME

PEACE FROM JOSHUA TAN
