42 Times People Realized They Should Have Bought The Real Thing

We have all seen a lot of replica products but some are hard to recognize. Others are not even worth mentioning, as they have nothing in common with the original. The list below shows how some people were tempted to buy replica products but all of them soon realized they made a mistake.

1. The shoes

Here is one really nice way to start the list. You can see all the reasons why these replica shoes are not a nice choice.

2. The logo

The North Face is one of our favorite brands but this one is slightly different than it. They used a similar logo but the result is awful.

3. The curry 

Sometimes, products bought from an unreliable source can bring a lot of disappointment,. This is probably one of the best examples of that.

4. The TV series

The Big Bang Theory is one of the best shows ever and Sheldon is our all-time favorite character. This, however, is not among our favorite products.

5. The other logo

Some companies decide to add special twists to their products and this is what happened here. We don’t like it one bit.

6. The backpack

This is not an ordinary backpack. It looks like Super Mario but you can see what they decided to embroid on it.

7. The musical 

The weird things you see on a daily basis are nothing compared to this one. What were they thinking here?

8. The fake LEGO

Not only did they create a LEGO alternative here, but they also altered the Pizza Hut brand.

9. The shoes 

Some shoes are part of people’s lifestyles but you can see that nobody would like to have such shoes.

10. The Nutella alternative 

This curious product took making knock-offs to a whole new level. Let us hope it is tasty like the real thing.

11. The game console

Now, this is something you don’t see every day! The false product looks almost exactly like the real one.

12. The picture

Here is one person that thought they met Tom Cruise but they were wrong! This is not him.

13. The wrong images

Here is how one product became a controversial piece when someone mixed up the characters.

14. The Windows alternative

We are not sure if the Michaelsoft company is a real thing but the Binbows logo is too much for us!

15. The Cars movie

We guess that this is not the best playground in the world, as there are many wrong things about it.

16. The translation 

You can see that someone got the wrong idea and created one of the most peculiar product names.

17. The hat

NYC fans can immediately spot the difference between this cheap replica and the real things!

18. The fiddle spinner

Fidgets spinners are a source of endless fun but these are kind of peculiar to see.

19. The figurines

As much as we love Shrek, we need to admit that this is not the best of his statues.

20. The stick

Here is yet another product that is obviously not a genuine one. Even the label is different!

21. THe sauce

Fake products are everywhere but when it comes to food, you should make no compromise at all.

22. The mask

Halloween is already here and we have only a few days to prepare. We will not use a similar mask.

23. The McBurger

Here is one Russian diner that ripped off a famous burger restaurant chain.

24. The confusion

Someone who does not know cartoons probably designed these products. They are awful.

25. The hot dog stand

Here is yet another example of someone who decided to copy one’s colors andand business.

26. The game

We like board games but there are sets like this one that would make us want to hate them.

27. The rat and the cat

Tom and Jerry will be the best cartoon characters we have ever seen. It looks like this person’s job has the same setup.

28. The Kat Kot

This is a classic textbook example of a rip-off. Someone slightly changed this batch’s name and it is super funny!

29. The animated movie

We never thought we would see someone ripping off a movie and we guess it is not the right thing to do.

30. The board games

Here is another example of adulting fun that would make us forget everything else.

31.The controller

This controller appears to be quality made but it looks cheap, unlike the real thing.

32. The vacuum cleaner

The vacuum you see was an ordinary robot until the owner picked it up and saw for themselves.

33. The candy

Here is one honest message that we will try to comply with. It is also a range to see, too.

34. The letters 

This is a fine example of why you should hire a copywriter to do the job.

35. The family

We can appreciate this effort but you can clearly see that these don’t look like The Incredibles.

36. The Nike logo

Knock-off products are flooding the streets but this one could actually sell well.

37. The book

We are not sure what this person was thinking but writing such a book is a waste of time.

38. The names

This is a nice image excluding the fact that all the names were one and the same!

39. The products 

Here is why you should never order suits or clothes online – you will be forced to return everything.

40. The earphones

The Beats by Dre are a great product and we wonder why one person decided to buy these obvious fakes.

41. The soap bar

We hardly believed this one but it is real! Someone created a fake Dove Bar soap.

42. The jeans

There is no caption needed here, as the image speaks for itself. This is beyond us, to be honest!
