OK, I absolutely KNOW I'm going to be flamed but I have to ask. Is it illegal to OWN a fake - I know it is to sell one?
I have a couple of fake LVs from consignment stores and sadly I have to say that they are still better quality than any other bag I have ever owned.
Pochette Accessoires (cut LVs) and Ribera Mini (style number) - even my friend who has real LVs was surprised by this, she had no idea how to tell fakes and we couldn't find any difference in the texture of the canvas (mine have faux suede linings, besides the two issues I mentioned). I admit I should have researched this BEFORE buying.
So, do you think it is OK to use these or not? Someone here said as much as 99% of all LV is fake, but I'm scared of getting arrested if I even take them outside. I wouldn't try to "pass" - if anyone asked I would say I bought them used and I knew they were fakes - I just love the look of them and wish I could use them.
