Herritage Collections Gibbs Clone

#booyaqi it's always a risk dealing with mfg in China, but man literally stealing the product out from under you.

The Yaqi replica doesn't do it for me anyway, the scalloped guard is just wrong, and smacks of a Chinese knock off, but that seals the deal.

The scalloped guard is defiantly off putting and I hope if drives people away from purchasing it. I was very excited about the Heritage Gibbs Replica and it makes me sick to my stomachs that yaqi did this.

So from what I can tell the MFG I commissioned to make ours apparently had them (Yaqi) make it.

So, is this Yaqi's fault? Sounds form above, that it was the company that Heritage commissioned, outsourced it to Yaqi and then left heritage in the dust. Obviously I don't know the details, but don't want us blaming Yaqi if it's unwarranted. Just food for thought.
 
He does say that both Yaqi and the company he contracted stoped comms. Of course you have a point, but it looks bad based on his post.

Like @DeepSea said, the word thing is the loss of what would have probably been an excellent and affordable replica.

Well the Yaqi at least checks the affordable box.
