    Thanks for all the lovely comments so far all! This is a bit different to the previous video, but I want to try and provide this kind of stuff from time to time as a bit of fun! Any suggestions do let me know!

    • @tempymcaccounterson5744
      @tempymcaccounterson5744 Před 3 lety +4

      I think as a suggestion maybe a primer video on what actually is larp would be really helpful. I think people, like myself, have an idea on what it is that might be a bit ignorant. So when you explain on the first package you open that the buckles aren’t real leather and “that would be fine for cosplay.” I was confused. Is this not medieval cosplay with mass role playing in large groups? If not what are we missing? Why is it a little downing to not have the leather? I just feel as though I’m missing more too it. Love the video and your content but I am lost in the drain.

    • @merk1721
      @merk1721 Před 3 lety +7

      Loved the video! If you do another of this type maybe do it like a "here's what an okay entry level larp outift could look like" with like a price guide to show roughly estimates on costs

      Me saying an item would be good for cosplay is not diminishing any of your hard work or effort. Some folks just want to wear cheap/bought costumes for fun.

  • @MommyOfZoeAndLiam
    @MommyOfZoeAndLiam Před 3 lety +27

    Keep in mind with wish and other websites they steal a photo of a real item that is either for sale for hundreds or like Bernadette Banner something made by a creative person who spent more on materials than the entire cost of the wish item and months of painstaking research and work to create a one of a kind item. Then they knock it off. So you are never seeing an actual photo of the item you are getting. You are seeing the item they gave their designer and told them "Make this, here is 5 dollars, I expect 10 thousand units ready next week".

    I was like... man, what were you expecting, but then THE DRESS happened. Totally worth watching. I use wish extensively for crafting materials (wool, beads, hooks, etc...) and small accesories and so far got things with good quality/price ratio. Guess it is a matter of what you want to buy.

  • @ethancaldwell2422

    Gambeson honestly looks iffy. Might work for an event or two, but definitely I'd not sew any arming point to it (although it looks so thin it could actually be easy xD) Original could very well be 200 euros, tho xD if the image is to be believed, it's HEMA-grade and that stuff's expensive.
    The pouch's closing system looks... questionable xD (especially for somebody like me who uses gauntlets)
    Cloak doesn't look as bad as it could have been, tho!
    The chestpiece looks unexpectedly legit!

      Anyway, I feel like Wish is way better for larp accessories than actual clothes. They have surprisingly durable hip bags, and some weak-soled fairy lace up boots I got held up SURPRISINGLY long... though, to be fair, i Was standing on tiptoes the whole time for that character, so there wasn't that much ground-friction 😂) Their costume jewelry breaks really quickly though if there's any chains.

    This video does a good job of showing that you need to be skeptical when it comes to buying anything from Wish, LARP-related items or other things.
    I've personally had more good luck than bad, but most of what I've bought has been jewelry and small items, less so when it comes to more specific items. I still buy things from the site but make sure to scrutinize what items I'm interested in buying.
    As far as LARP stuff goes, it's a mixed bag much like what your purchases showed.

    This is the most adorable video ive ever seen. Mostly negative reviews for items that are nicer than 93% of larpfits that exist.

    I've really wanted to try Larping since your 3 men go larping video. So I'm really thankful you're doing more introduction stuff for it! I'd love to see a video on more... reputable Larp shops! Though luckily I'm quite creativily inclined so I think I'm going to attempt to make my own stuff when I save up enough and gain the courage. I'm really happy to see you uploading though, I turely love your content, expecially this more laid back stuff! Keep it up ❤

    Dude this is the first video of you I see, and it's awesome. I've hesitated so many times to buy on wish, and I must say I'm definitely not surprised of what you got... except that plate.
    Now what surprises me even more is that you got your "real" leather armor for a 100pounds, given how here on the continent it's closer to a few hundreds when you leave Epic Armoury's safehaven...
    Will subscribe!
