How to Accurately Specify Shoe Batch Versions When Ordering Replicas
When purchasing replica sneakers, knowing how to correctly specify batch versions is crucial for getting exactly what you want. Rep communities commonly use spreadsheets that list various batch versions like OG, LJR, and H12 along with important reference metrics.
Understanding Batch Versions in Replica Spreadsheets
Replica comparison spreadsheets typically include multiple batch versions (sometimes called "factory versions") for each shoe model. Common batch codes include:
- OG
- LJR
- H12
- PK/Godkiller
These spreadsheets usually include additional reference information such as price comparisons, known flaw rates, and real-customer photo examples.
The Proper Way to Specify Your Batch When Ordering
At LongBuy, we recommend the following procedure to ensure you receive the exact batch version you want:
- Find your desired batch version in community-verified spreadsheets
- When placing your order, either:
- Attach a screenshot of the spreadsheet showing your chosen batch
- Clearly specify in order notes using format: "[Model] [Batch] [Version Date]" - Complete the standard Quality Check (QC) process when you receive your pre-shipment photos to verify batch specifics
- Only approve shipment after confirming all batch details match your requirements
This order specification method combined with QC review creates what experienced replica buyers call "The Safest Possible Replica Buying Process" - preventing wrong factory versions or incorrect batches being sent.
Why Precise Batch Specification Matters
Different batches have varying levels of accuracy to retail versions, material quality, and known flaws. By properly identifying your chosen batch:
- Agent can verify the factory has the current version in stock
- Your QC photos become more meaningful as you can check against specific batch flaws
- Beginners avoid the common mistake of receiving older, potentially less accurate versions
Using this method can substantially improve your replica shopping experience and final satisfaction with purchased items.
