I thought it might be helpful to have a thread were people could review products they had purchased due to seeing them reviewed on the popular SM platforms.

We’ve all seen the items that seem too good to be true, car polishes, drying towels etc.

There are many I want to link, but I’ll start with this tool set, as it looks like great value?

I’m surprised I didn’t get any response when I first posted, as I’m sure we’re all tempered to purchase car care products that maybe seem too good to be true…

Has anybody tried this?

I'd hope that any self respecting PH user would be loathe to admit seeing something advertisied on social media and jumping to buy it. Seeing it, doing research and looking at reviews of both the product and the seller, maybe, but what sort of eejit believes anything on there?

That’s it exactly, some of it must do what it says on the tin, though… surely.

Who could resist purchasing from www.specializedshop-shop.com - it has shop in the name twice, for double the shop-i-ness. Also the link gives a 403 error. A sure sign of a quality shopping experience.

There are many many youtube channels that sample the delights of being scammed for cheap chinese rubbish on social media

I don't use any of those platforms, but if anyone sends me a link to something on Facebook/Instagram/TikTok then I've always assumed it involved a scam/self-promotion/kick-back of some sort.

Aren't you running the risk of legitalising them by improving their DA with backlinks?
