^ ^ ^ ^ That is shameful! It's hard to imagine that someone would be willing to pay $100 for such poorly made products (not to mention that they are obvious fakes).
there's a whole rash of these all over the place now. i saw two a few weeks ago in 2 smaller boutique stores that i shop at. it was a white balenciaga brief with that ugly gold hardware and the leather was all shiny. i threw up a little bit in my mouth! and because i was looking at it, the SA said to me, "there's another balenciaga look a like over there on that shelf!"
i actually had stuff to try on in the dressing room and i just left because i was so disgusted. they lost my respect and business.

but to stay on topic..i can't wait til my black/black baby rocco gets here!!!! it's not coming til monday!!! i can't wait!
