reissue fakes are out now....please be careful when purchasing from resellers, vintage stores, or ebay... i saw some pictures of these fakes on a classified, they are advertised as replicas but you never know what some people would do for a few bucks. :sad:

yes! post pictures in the auth forum...i learnt everything about bags there, thats why i've never been burnt. i would rather spend couple hours to educate my self then throw away hundreds on a fake bag.

you're welcome~~ ;) fakes have already invaded LV's, its sad to know that they are seeping into Chanel territory too... one reason that i "cheated" on LV was because there were too many fakes out there...i still love LV but i am more into chanels now~ hehe

wow....i didn't know there are fake reissues in the market too. I guess i have to be real careful when getting one or get it from an authorised online reseller....:smile:

I check ioffer once in a while to see what the 'new' fakes are. The last time I checked, I also saw some reissues there, and unfortunately I saw the same ones on ebay. Also, there were quite a lot of classic clutches as well.. But as others have stated, get them authenticated here, they usually don't pass the test.. :biggrin:

good looking out.

I am one of the many that has been tricked by fakes especially on Ebay. I got some great authentic things, and some others were complete fake. I am so fed up of spending hundreds on fakes so I decided to just purchase directly from the boutique or store. I don't have that much time in doing research on the two, so I took the easy way out. again, thanks!

ebay can be indeed tricky! i wish i could go to boutiques more often! boutique experiences are priceless, especially when you come out with a chanel shopping bag and the excitement of unwrapping the box, even if you know what's inside~~~

It amazes me how quickly things are copied ... I guess all you need is a picture and that is it ... it is too bad. I saw a lot of this in HK and China and even worse that the fake bags is that there is a HUGE market for them. So long as the demand is there, copies will be made.
