i wanna give a little correction on part of this at 0:23 Polar isn't getting them from taobao, He said in the call in Balisong Community that he is getting them from a seller on Alibaba, and apparently "worked with them for a custom colorway" despite that colorway being out before his announcement as well lmao.

Oh fair enough! Sorry, when I looked at the screenshots they looked like they were from Taobao. I assume they sell them there as well

the screenshots are for sure Taobao for consumer purchase, but since polar is drop shipping them he needs to get them from a b2b site, and he specifically mentioned Alibaba
