I bought a remarkably similar mug (last advert shown) from an add from different site [1]. Everything about it was a fake. Almost every feature they advertised did not exist (including the fact that it did not come in a gift box.) That was from a site I visit a lot and I wanted to show support. BTW the AI generated animation is quite cool, too bad it is not real...

Do not buy this!! [1] https://kenmiso.com/products/%E2%9A%A1%E2%9C%A8ultimate-v8-e...

I am surprised you could look at that page and expect to receive a quality product. The images all look like really low grade AI-generated renderings. The mug in the cupholder and the giftbox image in particular don't stand up to even casual scrutiny.

Not trying to make your situation worse, I just find it interesting what these sites are able to get away with to get people to part with their money.

That reminds me of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Willy%27s_Chocolate_Experience

...which ironically has crossed the line into "so bad it's good" territory.

Are you saying that something about this product is suspect? But it has "Beautiful Craftsamnship"!

I've always wanted a mug that has an "Ecgraronic| handle sin.]"!

I mean how could you not want to own a piece of hand-painte perfectly restody that perfectly restores the V8 engine red?

Maggie Mcguagh on Instagram's whole schtick is buying and reviewing these fake AI generated products. Its pretty hilarious

I am very curious what the product really looked like.

I gave it to a friend, but think the cup shown, with painted by an amateur model enthusiast. Not quite right colours, not quite right places...

Just as there's a cottage industry for "I made the game the scam ads show" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zRDhiN50Vo0 I think there will soon be a cottage industry for "the scam ad was good, let's make it for real".

That mug is amusing but it should't be too hard for China to make something similar - but real (at least without the weird piston).

Wtf. How could you fall for such an obvious scam? Are you under 5 years old? Or over 60?

[sometimez]

Can you please share what the actual product looks like?

[sieep]

so you're saying this is a real product and the ad you saw(then purchased from) was a fake?

[direwolf20]

Sue them for your $28 back?

[pvorb]

At least you got a mug!
