To Vandrea,

I'm not insisting. I've only posted it once. I just said "which I hear is Chinese". I did not say that he is Chinese. But anyways, yup it's Jappy. I haven't met him before so i just assumed......but I saw him the other day.

sorry about that.

Hi. I was wondering if I get something shipped at aloha rag, how much would the customs charge me? Example is $1195 USD. Thanks.

I actually researched on this thru *bay. If you want everything totally legit they'll compute it as 1195*46= 54970
54970*10%=5497
Plus import processing fee P250
Custom documentation stamp P250
BIR Stamp=P15
Total=P6012
6012*10%
T O T A L=6613.2

This is based on *bay's computation but they also say in the forum that it just depends on your luck. Plus AR declares the value of the bag to 1/4th of the total value ata.

Anyone heard of Bagaholic? The store was featured in 100% pinoy in channel 7 & was in the Inquirer yesterday.

I went there today & there were FAKE bags EVERYWHERE!!!

so please warn anybody you know.

I went in with a Black Goyard Croisiere & they had a blue one on display - definitely fake and it sells for a whopping 63,000!!!!

I went to see the LV Papillon & the lining was orange!!!

Worst - the Balenciagas do not have the brand on the zipper! I don't know how to read labels yet but the zipper pull was definitely a clue that it's F-A-K-E!!!!!

The owner seems to say that the merchandise was sold to them when I think in fact they have a supplier of fake bags. Imagine: all LV damiers have orange insides!

She will even refund the buyer 2x the amount purchased if it was proven to be fake.

My goodness gracious!!!!

BOO!!

dg86 · Sep 7th, 2008, 02:05 AM

where's the store? i wanna check it out just for fun!

baileylab · Sep 7th, 2008, 07:30 AM

It's by Renaissance hotel makati.

From GB4 just walk straight towards pasay road OR if it's raining, go thru GB3 & exit by the Lacoste store. Then cross the street to renaissance (don't go in), turn left, walk to the corner & turn right. It's there after some 15 or 20 steps on your right side.

OMG i saw this last week!!! i dont identify fakes very well, especially LVs, which is majority of the bags that they seemed to have, but i was excitedly telling my sister about seeing this store featured on tv and how nice it is for them to have something like that in PI........now i find out a lot of those bags are fake after all!! BOOOHOOO!!!!

thanks for letting us know!!
