Wellfitting sizing
Do wellfitting's bras run differently than direct orders from Comexim? I needed to try a 75J since my 75HH is a hair small, found one on another site, and prayed that it wouldn't be too big. Came today, any guesses? Yep, it's definitely *smaller* than my two 75HHs. The new 75J is wellfitting for comexim, the two 75HHs are plain comexim.

I've asked this question elsewhere before, and nobody gave me a straight answer. However, I'd say my 65J basic from them is definitely smaller than my other couple 65J's I ordered elsewhere. Mine isn't a huge difference, not even a cup size, but they're all based on the same model (the basic) and should've been exactly the same.
No they don't. That myth started for a generalization with sample size 1.
I knew this couldn't be so I wrote to the Wellfitting sisters to ask what was going on. They explained to me that for a few bras Comexim changed some elastics that affected the fit and they were quick to correct it.
What happened after is that a few customers from Wellfitting and from Comexim got these bras. The Wellfitting users were louder on the Internet and compared this one bra they had to other Comexim bra and made a generalization that Wellfitting bras fit differently that Comexim. We never heard of the other bras from Comexim that had this same symptom.
Another situation with Comexim is that since it is a smaller shop where all bras are hand sewn, they do have a bigger variation in fit that bigger companies with a streamlined manufacturing process and more expensive quality control. So this higher variation on Comexim's bras plus the myth laying around is what makes people think this.
But the reality is that no, Wellfitting bras and Comexim bras are not made to fit differently. That would be a poor decision by Wellfitting if they decided so. They haven't. They want their bras to be the same as Comexim.
