    After buying super fakes for a test drive and then getting into exclusively buying authentics, I can tell you most people will never be able to tell the difference. Most don't even know the designer if it's a understated brand. Super fakes are not cheap either if you want quality imported leather, mirror copies, etc. they start in the 200 range and can go up into the 1k-2k range depending on what you're getting (bags, jewelry, shoes, etc). If you find a good artisan they can make you copies or even original designs.
    Canal street and similar street markets have barely passable fakes, most are overpriced for the low/mid range quality they are. I didn't get into fakes to create an "image", I just love fashion and designer pieces. Besides, mid-range and fast fashion brands "dupe" and rip luxury designers off every single season, so I don't view them as anything special or original. Dupes also almost always have inferior quality to the designer version, in a way it's like buying a fake in itself. And TONS of people buy them for the sole reason of "it looks like the designer" and "i wanna look trendy for the gram"..."iNfLuEnCeR ViBeS".
    Take Zara for example, how ethical do you really believe they are? Their factories? Their treatment of workers? The materials they use for their goods, is it all non-toxic? They churn out designer rip offs and charge exorbitant amounts of money for polyester at the end of the day. Shein anyone? 🫢🤮 They're probably one of the worst with their proven toxic & cancerous goods.
    As for the 'organized crime', canal street and other street markets probably fund those kinds of things but if you find a private artisan overseas they are just trying to feed their kids, not a gang lmao. There's a lot of scandal around authentic brands too fyi...the whole Balenciaga thing? Wtf was that? It's literally part of organized crime. 😡

      Agree with you 100%. And anyone that thinks the designers are being ripped off is delusional. They were paid for their design work and on to the next best thing, they could give a hoot about what happens after that.

      @@babycakes1402 Yes that's what I mentioned in the start of my comment. Superfakes can run from the 200-2k (even higher for exotic skins) range depending on the brand, quality, and design. They're extremely difficult to differentiate from authentics by the average person, usually only experts or special authenticating software can determine the authenticity and sometimes even those fail. What is upsetting is that some are taking advantage of this and flooding the preloved market with these superfakes, listing them as the real thing. 😞

    My aunt and uncle are very well off, like multiple 8 figure net worth. Uncle is a self-made commercial real estate investor and he owns multiple warehouse buildings in a tech-heavy area and has a few factories in the US and overseas for his old manufacturing business. Exported a fleet of Tesla Model X’s for his overseas team with the hefty tariffs that come along with it. Even then, my aunt exclusively owns replica handbags because they value that money to be put elsewhere, be it other investment opportunities or back into their existing businesses. Not all rich people value luxury goods the same way. My aunt and uncle didn’t come from money, so they value it more than just blowing tens of thousands on a brand name marketing.

    As someone who used to work in retail (specifically as a someone selling name brand bags), I realized you really don’t need to spend more than $50-$100 on a high quality bag.
    As a worker, some companies might give you over 50%-75% on a bag that can be priced up just because it has a brand name attached to it.
    As long as that bad fits your needs and you love the look, that should be it!
    Also supporting small businesses who make their own bags is also a plus, you don’t need to drop money on things that have a name attached to it!

    I've never understood the fake bags thing because you could literally just buy a lower priced bag. People complaining about Chanel prices can easily find similar style bags for less, but they don't because at the end of the day, what they want is to pass a Chanel bag as real. I can't afford a Chanel bag but have a small boxy bag that I bought from a maker on etsy. It was a $100 leather bag. No one needs a fake. To me, it's the equivalent of would you have the same energy if someone stole your videos, art, etc and justified it with, well you already make money so what's the harm?

    After Chanel ridiculously hiked up their price, I was done. No way a medium flap will cost over 9k. I started looking for other brands and watched several CZcams videos and did my own search. I was able to find a really great seller. Just ordered a Dior Bobby and could not tell the difference 😭 If I could return my authentic one, I would have already. Now I feel silly spending all that money on it 🤦🏽‍♀️

    I really wanted a Chanel classic flap bag, when I finally had enough to buy one, they did a price increase, the sales people were incredibly rude to me, and they didn’t eve have one bag in stock in my area that I wanted. Also, I started watching some horror stories about how the Chanel bags just are made like they used to be, in a sense, Chanel is selling authentic counterfeit bags if you think about it! If they are using their own heritage and quality to sell a bag that is even cheaper! It’s terrible! 10,000 is a ton of money for a bag! I still wanted a Chanel bag, but I wanted the quality of it without the fear. So, I bought an expensive fake. I didn’t know then, about the criminal activity and possibility of child labor behind purchasing it at the time though.

      This is nothing compared to Shanghai, China. I saw some “super fake” Chanel and Gucci that took my breath away. They looked and felt like the real thing. These bags were never displaced out in the open, but tucked away in a secure place. The sales person would always asked if you wanted to see a higher quality designer *esluxscom* than the ones they displaced out in the open. If you said yes, the sales person stepped away and brought you a designer bag that looked authentic.

My bf recently got me an LV loop flower print blue monogram bag replica in the far east. I spotted it and it was love at first sight even though i knew it was fake. it was too pretty to resist plus he bartered it way better than i could ever do.

    I'm not a fancy bag girl--not having the kind of lifestyle that requires a designer handbag, I buy purses at Goodwill or even make my own--so you would think none of this advice applies to me. But it absolutely does. The general advice to follow here is to focus on spending your money based on your values. If you really want a high-end designer bag, save up and get one. If you want the look without the expense, get a knockoff. Or if you'd rather save that money and go to Disneyland, don't buy a fancy bag. Spend your money based on YOUR values, not on what other people think you should be spending your money on, and cut back in areas where the expenses aren't necessary or desired.

It doesn't hurt to buy this kind of product, and the quality is very good. Most girls just carry one style and don't have to be careful. They don't feel bad when they throw it aside. The main thing is that they can freely match it with luxury accessories.

    Looking the part. Totally. I think anyone critiquing on either side is not showing enough empathy. I am an adjunct professor who is looking for other ways to create work for myself in the world. I was raised on Ross and Target. Lately, I've been collecting some better quality Coach and Rebecca Minkoff. I know it's not luxe, but it's a way to start caring for my belongings and building my wardrobe. I feel like it's important to live within one's means and I'm proud of the honest work I do as a college instructor. However, breaking into social circles and new opportunities can be easier with nicer things. I'd love to acquire YSL, Bottega and Celine at some point...
    Honestly, I don't judge either way. The one thing I think everyone should probably do though is care really well for what they have. whether it's a leather conditioner or a sweater pill remover. Or even getting dust bags for purses. It feels really good to take care of the objects we have and show gratitude. Looking forward to my first real luxury handbag purchase tho 😊

      I bought a LV bag at *esluxs* a few years ago. I took it to the LV store in my town last week to have it repaired. A store clerk inspected my bag and immediately told me that the bag was of excellent quality. She pulled a current bag out of inventory and compared the tags and I saw ZERO differences.

      I’m a member of the Rep Ladies Reddit page but have not ever purchased one. Theres a big difference between designer inspired and a replica. Replicas use branded materials to counterfeit the original brand or design. Because it’s illegal, there’s more risk. Risk of product being seized by customs, risk of poor quality or not getting what was pictured or promised since these purchases are not regulated by virtue of them being an illegal transaction. It’s also believed that some counterfeiters are associated with larger criminal organizations that use counterfeiting as a means of funding their other more nefarious businesses- drug or weapons trading) Sounds far fetched to some but definitely a real thing and not worth the risk in my opinion.

    I think this is so interesting as a handbag fanatic and love buying real. I just traveled to Paris and I couldn’t help but adore all the women AND men’s fashion in the streets. So much designer Birkins, Kelley’s, Chanel, YSL, Loewe. It was amazing to watch. Then I remembered how I read an article about some rich lady in NY has a fake Birkin collection but they assume it’s real because she’s rich. It got me thinking how many people have “expensive handbag” on their arm and it’s fake. OR they literally wore all their designer items in that one outfit and that’s the extent of their collection. What about those websites where you can rent designer bags?! Maybe some also paid the premium to get the Birkin pre-loved vs playing the Hermes game. By the time you spend bag quota you probably could have paid less on pre-owned market. Also designers go on sale!!! I get emails all the time from NM, Nordstrom and brands like Burberry all the time that they are having private sales. I also buy items pre-loved. Moral of the story is don’t just assume that $6,000 bag is what that person paid for it, it could be fake, pre-loved or on sale. Just because you have money to buy things doesn’t mean they don’t love a discount or they would use their money to buy these things ! I’ve also seen women in a Chanel group on fb sell their bags to gather funds for a different bag.

    • @rubiirae

      It all comes down to your mindset in buying luxury goods. I buy designer handbags and jewelry because I love the design and I can easily afford them. I don't buy designer bags every year or season, only when I come across one that I really like and can see myself using it all the time. I couldn't care less if strangers think my bag is real or fake.

    I believe in buying the real thing. If someone is really going to rebel against snob culture, then carry a good quality bag with its own non inflated label. Faking it is just tacky and supports the brand name snob culture. Women with 7 figure incomes can afford to make choices like supporting emerging artisans who will make a bespoke piece just for the individual customer.

    It’s so wrong to buy fakes. If you don’t want the big expensive bags, you can get something cheaper elsewhere.
    And if you get a fake to try and blend in, that’s even worse : either accept the rule and get those expensive bags to fit in, or refuse to fit in and get the bag you want.

The bag size, the monogram design is on point. even the stitches ,the color of the thread, the color of the inner lining. the lock,the hardware,the stamp,the zipper even the LV near the handle does not overlap.The only thing we noticed is that there was no date code. Accdg to my aunt that bag was given t her by her aunt in 2009 .But that *esluxs* was gifted to her aunt in 1998. There is only a slight discoloration but it looks fantastic.

    In my opinion, you cannot say you’re fighting against the ‘You can’t sit with us’ mentality of designer brands if you’re buying the fakes, you just can’t afford the authentic one.
    If you don’t want to buy the authentic one, that’s fine. Buy the dupe or the fake if you want to, but don’t justify it by talking about fighting against designer brands.

      The reality is that large designer brands such as Gucci, Hermes, LV, etc. are becoming outdated as consumer demand has shifted from wanting to appear "wealthy" to wanting to show their "intelligence". 10 years ago if you bought a *esluxscom* you were "cheap" and "fake", now you're "smart" and "cost-conscious" because customers have realised their's no need to pay 10x more for the same quality bag.

    If you're buying fakes, you don't care about the quality or heritage of the brand... you care about your image and how people perceive you. That is SO mentally weak. If you don't have the money (or are scared you might be making a "bad buy" that may hurt you financially), buy cheaper sustainable or vintage items instead.
