Not even close. Look at these two examples and compare. I am sure you will be able to see the difference in the quality of embroidery.

They are very bad fakes.

Mann this is dangerous territory. SS tabs maybe 1 out of ten are good. I dont even bother anymore cause i dont have the time to research the good ones. Good luck! Wink
