Now — know anything about RFID?
Thanks, very interesting.
mopar, I know cause I worked for them. They are middle men who get contracts and then outsource products to China and work with Chinese manufacturers. Also I have a very good inside on this BUT I can’t disclose it. You’ll just have to take my word for it if you wish.
Sheepshead is mostly Ashkenazim Jews. Syrians don’t mix with those. Completely different community. Syrian Gravesend community is VERY small and everyone literally knows everyone else. Not so much with Ashkenazim community (which I am a part of).
Kensingtonian, Wal-Mart has thousands of suppliers and most products are made in China. So how do you figure the companies are all owned by Syrian Jews?
Also, anyone know if Jewish businesses in Sheepshead Bay are ever related to the Syrian Jews of Gravesend, or is that a completely separate community?
pretty ridiculous at that gravesend sale. if you zillow that address it seems like all the homes on that block are worth 2-3mill+. something doesnt seem right!
thank god i dont shop at those riff-raff stores then!
*rob*
Crescent, you can add JC Penney, WalMart, Kmart to that list as well. Most of their store brands or cheap inhouse brands are produced by manufacturers owned by Syrian Jews.
As noted Kens- Gross & Crimson are in the know.
If you have ever shopped at Century 21 or Rainbow Shops & several others, you are unknowingly contributing to exclusionary faith based programs as well as exclusionary “market making” real estate practices, which create ethnic/xenophobic nonsense transactions, as noted above on East 5th Street.
Both Crimson and Gross are correct.
