No clue what you said

Probably because you're not from the area. I'm from NJ and Canal St is China town,Manhattan,NYC where they have a lot of counterfeit items ,mostly clothing,purses,shoes,jewelry,sun glasses,leather,bootleg Dvd,etc....

What he's saying is they are now selling fake tools so be careful.

I've gone to canal st with the girls in my family a couple of times to get knock off purses.
For those who don't know, you'd be interested. Many of the stores have false backs. Once the proprietors trust you they invite you back through a hidden panel to see their line.
It's a trip. Probably an impressive looking line of tools behind one of those walls.

I thought you were gonna say, don't stick your head out of the roof on the bus while going to a sweet sixteen in Manhattan.

Darwin is correct again.

And they act as if the kid didn't kill himself, and mourn him like a person murdered.

They do and the people shuffle around and new counterfeit operations move in while some are put out of business. It's cyclical, they always seem to stay ahead of the law.


Nj, are they counterfeiting tool bags or do they have counterfeit tools too. It was a little hard to understand from your original post?

 

[danski0224]

Most probably know of Greenlee.

Veto makes high priced Chinese made tool bags.

Its hard to catch them as they have stores but the regular part of the store is just straight handbags (Not fake "name brands")

But the "name brand" section is not open to general public its pretty much only if they think your not a cop will they let you go to the secret section..

Sometimes they are behind magic mirrors that look like walls or up and down stairs through a dark alleyway.. lol

I am from Jersey so maybe I can clarify for you. Basically the high end knock off looked cheaply made, so why bother counterfeiting it in the first place. It was obviously a fake and any who uses tools regularly would know it was.

I was just about to ask what veto was.
