[Deleted]DJ CA The Good, The Bad, The Missing
So let me just start off by saying this ID looks really good for use here in FL. The ID itself looks very crisp and beautiful. There are flaws especially as a V1 that I hope he'll fix in the future.
A major flaw is that I ordered 2 IDs and only received one, not only that but I didn't get me custom signature which I did include in the spreadsheet he gave me. Since I paid for 2 IDs I hope to receive the other one soon. The signature doesn't look fake but I could never replicate that.
Communication 8/10 He always responded and was always courteous whenever I needed anything or had a question. I e-mailed him about three times, the first was to confirm he got my order, the second was when he'd ship them, and the third was about getting the V2 freebie. Always responded, maybe not immedietly but within 1-2 days.
Pricing 5/10 Well I paid $270 for an ID plus a duplicate, sadly I didn't get my duplicate, and I remember seeing somebody else ordered two and didn't get it either, this could be that he may have shipped them separately but at least for me, the package I received only had one. As for the price itself it is pretty pricey seeing as it is a V1 with a couple of flaws in it.
Shipping Speed 8/10 Ordered the 26th I think whenever the 20 Promo was and got them today 11/16. 3 weeks time isn't too bad since I'm so used to ordering from g0d.
Quality 8/10 Ok well here it is, the ID itself is pretty good, the template is good enough accurate, and the raised text and embossed DOB is looking really good too. At least here in Miami any ID with these security features is legitmacy enough. The perforations look beautiful and clean and sharp. A downside is that the back looks a bit tilted as you can see with the lines about the bridge. From the left side they are higher up while on the right they seem to sink lower. Again, the signature is not mine it was generated but I did include a custom sig in my spreadsheet, (I just checked to make sure and it is there) I really don't want to ask for a reprint but I do ask that these simple issues be fixed in the duplicate I ordered, mainly the signature I really want to be mine and not auto generated. The laminate is also a bit over the card itself. It covers more than the ID should and it goes over. Im pretty sure you can sand this, im not 100% entirely sure and I don't want to damage the ID in anyway so I'm just going to keep it how it is and hopefully in my Dupe that never showed up these issues are fixed. The colors are nice and what really does well on my ID is the photoshop work. DJ included ear shadows and it just made the ID complete. It looks incredibly legit, and today I saw a friend who I hadn't seen in forever and is from Cali, I showed him my ID and he said that it really good and I compared it to him and the only difference I could spot were the text was a bit more bolded than his and the raised text was more noticable as well as the UV is more of a shade of blue than green. It's still green but not as green as mine. The ID is also a bit flimsy. In FL the IDs here are teslin with a polycarb laminate so my FL is a bit thicker and less sturdy than the CA one.
Scanning 10/10 Scanned it but haven't swiped I really hope it does swipe because I paid a lot and would be really sad if it doesn't swipe. Here in FL we have magnetic stripes on our IDs as well so swiping is a thing here :(
Stealth 7/10 If your mom opens this she'll see it easily, but thankfully I carry the mail key in the family so I don't have to worry about that. We don't have a mailbox but instead have those big mail storages where everyone in the communities mail is stored.
Usuability x/10 Haven't used it yet but this weekend will forsure use it as I cant wait to see how it holds up against these strict bouncers of Miami
To recap:
- The ID is solid and will work pretty good here in Miami if you're confident enough
- I'm missing my Duplicate so DJ if you're seeing this I can PM you or e-mail to see what happened
- Missing custom sig included in spreadsheet
- Photoshop stands out the best and a good ID is literally 70% the picture
- Embossed DOB and raised text add to legitimacy of ID
Overall 8.3/10 For the first CA in the sub you did a great job DJ, small flaws that can be improved easily and I really hope to hear from you to settle my missing dupe so I can do a second review once it gets here
Almost forgot the Pics
