Happy Saturday, fellow Islanders! :beach:

As a late night lurker for preowned bags online, I never commit to buy until I check out my “recently viewed” items until the next morning. :online2long:

And it’s a good thing I do. Viewed in the cold light of day the majority of the bags that had piqued my interest the previous night has me wondering what on earth I’d been thinking? :facepalm:

But every so often there’s a bag that rewards my lurking…

:spiderweb:

And should arrive sometime next week. :giggle:

AI generated bags are becoming more and more prevalent on the internet. :online2long:

There are the wildly creative…

And the utterly reprehensible.. :mad:

AI generated fake luxury designer bags (which I will not dignify with a pic) that are clearly counterfeit to all but the uninitiated.

Incredibly, there are proponents who defend the practice, stating that the people generating these bags are doing so for their own personal use and not for resale.

Which in no way makes it right. “To thine own self be true” is (and has always been) good advice. No matter how much you might want a luxury designer handbag, generating a fake fools no one but yourself.
