I don't think that's a fair assumption. It is the SELLER's responsibility to make sure what they're selling is genuine-- not the buyer's. It's illegal to SELL fakes... not illegal to buy them, however. I can tell you right now, that there are a number of us that monitor the kate spades. If they're fake, we recognize it, and we get them off of there however we can. Sellers usually know they're selling fake crap, but buyers don't always know. It's as illegal and immoral as using counterfeit money.

but it is ebay if people want to avoid fake designer goods they know better than to buy off that site.

Please tell me the seller's name. You can send it to me in a private message, if you want.

I guess To me if I'am buying a designer handbag I wouldnt go to ebay.I'am sure they know they are selling fakes but they just dont care its the internet anything goes. Lets face it many illegal things have happened online and will continue to happen but its the internet what do you expect ? People get away with doing all sorts of stuff on the internet thats " illegal ".Thats why I buy from legit retailers especially when it comes to buying anything online.Kate Spade is not even a handbag worth buying to begin with.

If Kate Spade is not even a handbag worth buying to begin with, what are you doing on a Kate Spade forum?? Just wonderin'...

If, as a buyer, you know your seller and have your head out of your butt, you can get some nice premium handbags at a great price. I have bought 2 absolutely authentic LV bags on eBay, both at a great price (<50% of retail). I checked out the seller, asked the authenticators here to look at them, and knew the eBay buyer protection plan would back me up. "Anything goes on the internet" does not mean someone can steal from you by selling a counterfeit.

BTW, I said last night that there are so many counterfeit Prada and LV bags on the 'net in general, I'd be more likely to go to an actual designer boutique in a hoity toity mall than risk a seller I did not know.

I just joined .Im trying to look at different threads and give my input.I just prefer to buy expensive purchases like handbags in store or online from a website that I know I can trust where I dont have to question if its fake or not.I dont like to take chances when it comes to my money.I personally like to buy handbags in person so I can see if I like it or not and judge if its worth buying.Online you dont get that opportunity.

True, but if you know what you want (for me, it was a particular style and size LV I wanted and had seen it in the LV boutiques), and buy carefully, you can get a very good deal.

Yeah, I guess if you don't like high-quality materials, gorgeous and timeless designs, the moderate price, or compliments from total strangers, "kate spade isn't even a handbag worth buying."
