a big ask?

hello saloonies

At the moment I'm in holland so I don't feel I can contribute to the saloon, but have a big ask

At the moment I'm writing about fake stuff in China, I've done 3 articles about knock-off clothes, cigarettes, and drugs and I'm wondering if people have original pictures of this?

As well, any pictures of any fake stuff would be awesome cos the project I'm working on is purely based on fake stuff so any pictures of shops selling fake stuff would be useful cos I could write about that as well

I hope this isn't out of order, delete it if it is...

Kitano, I have never even lived in China but I am always made to feel welcome at the saloon.I'm sure that you still have a lot to contribute about all kinds of things which would be of general interest to many saloonies.

Yeah, I do still try to pop in, but it's kind of slipped down my list of sites that I visit cos i'm not in china right now....

I'll be back...

and thanks for the links BrandeX but I'm kind of looking for original pictures rather than from other peoples websites

Some shanzhai Legos:

if you could tell me more about this project and with more specifics. perhaps we could give you plenty of data. i mean this city, Beijing, is filled with knock offs everywhere you turn.

Pirated Pirates!

BrandeX, that rocks!!!  Where did you find these?  Please buy me some of for Christmas.

it was just a writing thing i was doing, the guy wanted reports and original pictures of knock offs in china. it was a commercial thing, the idea was to cover the global market in fake goods but I was just given 3 to do about china.

basically it was 500 words about a subject and 3 pictures....
