Do NOT Buy the Amazon One Piece Box Set- Fake vs Real

I compare my two Amazon bootleg box sets which Amazon sold, to the real One Piece box set from Barnes and Noble.

[@MccandlessH]

Amazon has a serious problem with bootlegs I feel like only official brands should be able to put items up for sale on it.

[@Madara8989]

If only Amazon's Copyright Infringement ID system were as strict as KZbin's...

I'm sorry but I couldn't help not to laugh when you showed your second box set from Amazon! Not at you of course, but at the whole situation. It was so nice to see your relaxed face when you opened the real one. Your frustrations faded away and you looked happy 😌 Thank you so much for showing us, a frustrating but entertaining video! 😅

[@bobamanga]

It was definitely a unique situation, for sure. 🤣

[@GameOn-gq2ln]

@@bobamanga oh my i got my first one box set around the time you posted this video so I did get the real one thankfully i saw these videos thought i did not know if mine was bootlegged but now i know fake ones dont have poster or mini comic and there's no handle so yeah

[@ZardaffronTK]

I had no idea that bootlegs of VIZ's box sets were being made, though with how big the company is and how popular said sets are, it'd make sense. I'll have to look out for them now. Thank you for sharing your experience!

[@bobamanga]

I was shocked and so confused. 🫨

[@FLipSide5254]

Me either. I was curious why the prices at amazon were cheaper than people selling. I didn't think there was a fake one.

[@AnAhobbyhaven]

Oh my! Twice in a row?! 😰We've heard a lot of people mentioning they have received bootleg manga from Amazon before, but almost all of the time, it has been sold by a third party seller. This is the first time we've heard of this happening twice from Amazon themselves (not a third party seller)! 😥The explanation could be that some companies share their warehouse with Amazon, since Amazon does package and fulfill orders for other companies.🤔

[@gameslayerplayz1689]

Its ridiculous that Amazon is selling those bootleg box sets. The One Piece box set i bought on Amazon was real but that was a couple years ago now. Thanks for making this video, I'll definitely be more careful where i buy my manga now.

[@bobamanga]

I was not expecting the situation at all. 💀

[@anishathomas7641]

This must have been so frustrating! I am so glad you were finally able to get the manga after all of this trouble! It sucks you had to pay more though! I would be interested in a box set, if you are interested in giving them away! I have been wanting to start a manga collection for the longest time and haven't able to afford it so this would be a great way to be able to! Thank you for sharing your experience with us and I hope you have fun reading One Piece!! ✨ ♥

[@SofiChronicles]

Uff that is so stressful! Awesome that you finally got the real deal! As to what to do with the others: You can try selling the bootleg volumes individually at a lower price, letting people know they are bootleg. Lots of people like to use manga pages to make awesome art. Or, like a few people mentioned give them away. Good luck!

[@marthvader14]

Donate them to libraries

[@kittykat896]

Probably not a good idea. Bootleg books/manga are illegal. She might get in hot water trying to pawn them off to them and file a criminal report

[@HP_line_cook]

@@kittykat896yeah but if she donates them it’s not her trying to get money off of them.

[@ghouling1111]

No.. because they end up selling them on and it keeps them n the market

[@user-wg6ib8jj5s]

She can donate them to the county jail they always need books and wouldnt care about bootleg as long as its not xrated

[@josephhouston6639]

heck send me one !

[@navysingh5454]

I am sorry to hear what happened with you. Amazon customer service at times is just useless. I am happy that you atleast got the real one from Barnes finally. Hopefully, their aren't any such mishaps in the future. Look forward to you starting to read One Piece and being part of the journey.

[@bobamanga]

I've watched the whole anime and read the manga online, but it is so much better to read it in print. 😍

[@Tob56]

Amazon with box sets are so risky. I tried purchasing the same box set but it was so sketchy. I spent 150+ on it and they didn’t even send me anything. Luckily the money wasn’t transferred but they didn’t even have it on sale even though before I bought it did say it was available. I never ended up buying the first box set. But the one that personally came in perfect condition was the fourth box set. Something I’d do is check with the seller. I’m glad you are talking about this I thought I was the only one. I’m glad you got the authentic first box set.

[@ywen8836]

I didn't know there were bootlegs of these boxsets ! Thank you for warning us. I'm glad that you were finally able to have a legit one :)

[@bobamanga]

I was really surprised by it! I was so frustrated that I finally decided to just pay the more expensive amount because it wasn't worth the hassle on Amazon so many times. 😅

[@crimsonwhispersva2498]

I am so happy you got yourself the original boxset, a dear friend of mine has just got me into one piece the TV show and next week his going to start showing me the animation

[@bobamanga]

It's so good! I started rewatching the anime with my boyfriend, highly recommend! 😁

[@alexanderramos6747]

This is really surprising to me. I almost considered ordering the box set but ultimately took a gamble and went to Kinokuniya at my local mall and hoped a One Piece box set would be there. Thankfully there was, though it was the 3rd box set which was kind of a funny coincidence as the arcs it contained were where I was at in the anime. Kind of glad I didn't order one online. But I really hope this gets fixed soon. Getting bootlegs is never fun, especially for a product you really want.

[@bobamanga]

Totally agreed! I hope no one else gets the bootleg sets and they just sell the normal ones from now on.

[@toyshelv]

bootlegging is a crazy problem on Amazon, but fortunately their returns service doesn't care about anything, so sending stuff back for return is generally painless.

[@bobamanga]

Unless you live 45 minutes from a UPS return shipping service like me. 😂

[@crimsonspade4305]

I am very glad this popped up on my feed. Ive been considering buying that very box set for a long time. Im really glad you got the real deal

[@bobamanga]

I debated buying it a looong time as well and then I didn't even get the real thing. 🫠

[@_FiFo_]

I've only ever gotten box set 4 from Amazon because Dressrosa is my personal favorite arc, and luckily it's very real. But I will definitely keep this video in mind when getting the rest of the box sets. Thanks.

[@bobamanga]

That's awesome! I'm really looking forward to getting that far and reading it. I've only watched the anime for Dressrosa.

[@tyronewillis8432]

I'm Glad that you finally have the correct one piece box set 😊😊and always look for the wideness of the box set an also that every box set of any series has plastic handle an velcro. 🎉🎉

[@bobamanga]

Thank you 🤗

[@worldbridgefilmcreations6255]

I think that Amazon has improved. I just ordered the box set from them a month or so after this video for my One Piece LARP. Thank you for making this video... You saved me from a lot of heartache. Here's to hoping the bootlegs never return.

[@bobamanga]

Good to hear! ❤️

[@Borhaps]

I’m wanting to get the box set, did yours arrive legit?

[@acacciahall]

I feel so bad for you that you had to go through all that, now that makes me skeptical cause I was planning on getting all the One Piece box set on Amazon I think I'll find them elsewhere.

[@bobamanga]

The others might be okay, but box set 1 is not. 😂

[@bencc24]

ive gotten all 4 on amazon for extremely good deals. i think she just got really really unlucky unfortunately.

[@quesopasso]

I appreciate you making this. Thankfully the first two box sets I bought have been legit, but I now see that I may have been lucky. I'll be more careful in the future.

[@bobamanga]

I've so nervous to order them now. I wasn't aware it was even a thing!

[@ZangiefNoob]

Just to make sure, you bought from Amazon both times (not third party sellers), yet they sent you different items? I don't live in the US and I'm planning in ordering this directly from Amazon but this is kinda scary, having a package travel around the world like that waiting two weeks and receiving the wrong one would feel horrible, considering the work and money that implies returning the item from another country. Please respond to this comment if you can, would help me make up my mind about buying this or not. Thanks in advance!

[@bobamanga]

Yes, I did not buy from third party sellers but just regular Amazon. I got the same bootleg boxset twice. The real one came from Barnes and Noble.

[@silversnowphie]

New subscriber here 😊💖 I saw your video about getting the bootleg one piece box set from Amazon and girl! This is not good enough on their end! Even though they said what they said that second time I would still contact them again and push them about it as it really can depend on the person you talk to on the outcome you get and emphasise everything that’s gone wrong cause this ain’t on as $150 isn’t just a little bit of money to lose. I’m really glad you managed to get a real one though !

[@bobamanga]

Yeah, I had really sassy man the second time and he was not bothered. Maybe I will try again. 😅

[@kittykat896]

Not to mention it wasn't from a third party seller meaning that Amazon literally broke the law selling you something actually illegal. Its one thing if it was from a third party seller because they are protected from being held legally accountable.... But not from their own store. And if you took the refund and decided to go buy it again elsewhere, THEY'D STILL BE SELLING IT!! They obviously didn't go check the product when you first notified them. Who knows how many others got scammed with this bogus attempt at a boxset and how many more others would too if you hadn't mentioned it again for the second time it occurred.

[@frenchtoastchopsticksmanga5792]

I got a super beat up One Piece box set off Amazon too! It was so banged up and was missing the bonus stuff and was clearly a different box and the volumes looked heavily used. The one I got was from a 3rd party seller and now I'm really careful when I order. My local Kohls takes Amazon returns and it was super fast and I had my credit the same day. I ordered again and I got a real one.

[@Angelic_Hero]

while ive never had this issue with manga off of amazon, I've ran into the issue with model kits and DVDs. while I can agree it could fully be negligence on amazons part on this issue. but there's 12 different retailers selling the box set through amazon but they dont all ship their merchandise through amazon. so I'm not sure how they would fix the bootleg issues, unless they forced every retailer and private seller to ship/store their goods through a amazon warehouse and amazon check every piece of merchandise for tampering/ bootlegs. but ill defiantly have to start paying closer attention either way when i buy box sets in the future just in case

[@edgarlarios4718]

Thank you for this warning! You're saving so many from heartbreak!

[@bobamanga]

No worries! Hopefully Amazon has it fixed.

[@JuanGomez-mj3wz]

[@Rude_Boi]

I ordered One Piece box set 3 & 4 and they both are the real ones. I didn't know that Amazon sells bootleg manga. Glad you got the right one!

[@bobamanga]

I think this was a unique case, because my other Amazon manga seems to be fine.

[@siddarthchandran6201]

Thankyou for bringing up this issue. I would say its the best time this video came up on my feed. We have Comic-Con happening in India in the mid of Feb and I would be very careful before buying the box. Sellers should not be selling these fake products on a comic-con event but who knows.. we even thought Amazon would be genuine. Similar thing I had encountered while purchasing my Xbox game copies from Amazon. They sent the used copies instead of brand new ones. I had to reason out the differences between the used and new copies on a 20 minute phone call with an Amazon executive. But he was very kind and sent a original sealed product which I asked and I had two used copies of the same game. I repeat, i got used copies twice from Amazon which became my major concern where i decided to write e-mails with pictures explaining the difference to the team. Phew ! I get that bit of struggle you went through in buying the original copies of One Piece.

[@bobamanga]

Yes! It's rough when you aren't expecting a fake but end up with one. I think I've gotten used PS5 games before as well, but at the time I wasn't aware it was a problem. 🤦‍♀️

[@richardcham4738]

Very big difference with the bootleg, imagine a parent buying a fake box set for it's child. The assasination classroom box set, also has velcro. Sounds dumb but it gives a quality touch. So nice!

It does make a difference to me, for sure!

I'm not sure.. I just purchased normally on Amazon, not a 3rd party seller or anything, so I'm not sure who Amazon was having it fulfilled by.

Easy way to figure out if the manga is fake or not is to check the corners of the manga the side print of the manga would be printed in the the corners of the front and back side of the manga (i am bad at explaining) ☠️

This happened to me as well! Not only on amazon but some people were selling fake manga in shoppe here in my home country (Philippines) They were showing a clickbait picture of the LEGIT version of the Manga and when it was delivered to me it was thin. The prints were blurry and some pages were not even printed out properly I was so confused at the time as well but thank god i figured it out sooner than later and since i have a few copy of the original printed versions of SJ and Viz i was able to identify that the one i bought was FAKE I should have expected it since it was suspiciously CHEAP compared to the actual Manga Manga costs around : 400-600php The one i bought from a local online shop in Shoppe was only around 200-300php

[@turboqueer666]

If you hate the old box set then give it to me. I love One Piece endlessly! I have two pieces of advice for you (no pun intended). 1. When you go to barnes and noble, order in advance. If they have box sets at all, they got them all, just not at that store. I lost my One Piece collection when I had to go homeless but when I wanted to buy omnibuses, I called and said I'm gonna buy these titles and pick them up in the store. You can even get them delivered to you. Barnes and Noble do deliver books and products. 2. I mentioned this earlier, just do omnibuses. It's more manga for cheaper and it's not a lot of money thrown down at once. I'm sure you want your book case to be literally arcade perfect but this was a much easier way for me to speed read One Piece. Hope it helps.

[@RichardFriendartist]

Art supplies on Amazon many times are bootlegs too. I'm friends with the owner of Holbein paints. He said most of the product there is fake and made from inferior materials. Microns too on Amazon and e bay many times are fake and of poor quality. Best bet is to buy from official stores.

I got Samsung 64GB microSD cards that turned out to be bootleg from Amazon. They were actually just 2 gb and definitely not samsung. Also got a usb drive that was supposed to be over 200 gb and was again 2gb bootleg usb drive that looked like it had the correct memory size until you started storing things on it. Also a usb storage drive that was supposed to work with linux systems (from a company I bought from before in stores) that just pooped out as soon as you plugged it into the linux system and became an expensive metal paperweight that I think might have been bootleg. Also bootleg hanes period underwear. Also bootleg Thinx ones. It just happens occasionally. I try to just not buy things from amazon when I don't have time to deal with sending stuff back or need something fast and quality. If it's something I don't mind being subpar and need really quickly then some things are ok to get there. Or when I have time to send it back and order something else elsewherein case it doesn't work out.

@@bobamanga i got about 3/4th my money back they coudnt give all of it because they had to ship it half way over the world, seeing this video im glad i didnt decide on a second attempt. Happy it all worked out for you though ☺️

[@robinmons]

@@bobamanga i have just stopped buying manga from amazon im to afraid now, and now that im using scifier i also found out sites like amazon overcharge even for their ripoffs

[@bogdan1563]

Now I’m scared to order box set number 1 😰

[@bobamanga]

It was the only one I had issues with!

[@kittykat896]

Whooooa!!!! Holy sh!t, there's more than one?! I can't believe they gave you another bootleg boxset. What's going on at Amazon?! That's just so crazy. They literally buy straight from the distributor (publishers) aka Viz....well theyre supposed to. So weird

[@bobamanga]

I don't know, but it was a disaster. I'm just going to buy the rest of the sets somewhere else. 😅

[@luniasta]

I am not sure what the rep could do for you after you got the items and your money back

[@bobamanga]

I ended up being charged anyway.

[@pokemontrainerthink9045]

In missoula Montana i found box set 1 in Barnes and noble is like 185 though

[@bobamanga]

Ooh cool! I only live about 2 hours from there! 😁

[@pokemontrainerthink9045]

@@bobamanga nice I live about an hour away from missoula, in the bitterroot, but the markup on some of the books in there is crazy

[@az6624]

Can I buy one of the box sets you dont want off of you?

[@DaAngryPepe]

In my opinion, I would be blessed to have those 2 fakes box set. Me and brother are big one piece fans and the fact that you got your money back and another box set, meaning that you got them for FREE. So I could have a box set and my brother can have one and I got my money back 😅

[@DaAngryPepe]

Do you still have these fake one piece books

[@kolz4ever1980]

Lol crazy stuff really. At times I wanna get in to manga collecting but then again I don't got all that space for how much I would order. Also the prices keep me away. Guess I'll add this to my list of reasons to avoid it and just read them online lol.

[@bobamanga]

It is very fun! It does, however, take up a lot of space! I think just be wary, and maybe start with your favorites? I read online for years and years, and that was fine with me also! 😁

[@kolz4ever1980]

@@bobamanga lol that would be a problem still with my favorites being huge amounts of books already. Then I'm like do I really wanna spend so much on stories I already know how begin and end? Especially with me in to gaming that's very costly too. So it's a constant back and forth of thoughts with this lol

[@fluffierknave2267]

just saying if you dont know the one piece manga box set 1 is up for sell now I got one and its here in good adition its not bootleg but it came in no cardbord box and the sides where a little dinged but the manga was in good adition hopfuly this helps

[@fluffierknave2267]

frogot to add at the end anyone who looking for box set 1 and i saw that box set 4 is out to idk if its bootleg though

[@bobamanga]

I'm glad yours was normal! 😁

[@wolfcrushp]

Having just received the Amazon box set only for this video to pop in my feed had me terrified but mine was correct. Sad that crap like that happens

[@bobamanga]

I'm glad yours was okay! ❤️

[@The_BlOb]

Is there a price difference?

[@bobamanga]

Yes. The Amazon One was $154 and the Barnes and Noble was $187.

[@Rattycream_Gaming]

I ordered the one piece box set off Amazon and I got the exact same one you got from barns and noble but they prob fixed the Amazon one cuz of ur report 😂

[@DarthMorius]

only positive I can say for the bootleg, is it takes up less space on the shelf :P

[@fabiansimpson2022]

I would like to have one please ?

[@jcg7609]

Wow, I was really lucky because I bought all 4 boxset in the span of one month, and I got the real ones in perfect condition and at a discount.

[@Pinko-Diamond]

Same. I ordered all four about 3ish mind l months ago when I saw the sale and they are all legit.

[@bobamanga]

Lucky!
