Shucks...and I wish I could have slain those!!

Speaking of compliments...

Two strangers told me how cute my Dungaree Denim Quinn was today while I was at the hospital...

This forum is NOT indicitive of the quality and design of authentic kate spade purses and wallets. We call this the "Hall of Shame" because such fugly uglies parade around as the real thing when they are really just garbage.

This is Kathy Deringer, I own Kathy's Closet. I opened it 9 months ago and am learning more about my business daily. There have been 3 bags in my 9 months that were "faux". I honestly did not know it was illegal to sell them. I modeled my store after a store I personally consigned at for 15 years in Florida. They sold bags like this. Had I known it was illegal, they would NOT have been in my store. There are no current Faux bags of any kind in my store, nor will there ever be! It is even posted on my "desired items" page on my website, www.kathyscloset.biz, that I do not desire them and will not sell them! I am just a single mom who opened a small business to support my little boy and me. I certainly am not perfect, and am learning as I go. However, I will ALWAYS make changes when they need to be made, and this time is one of them.

We don't use the term "faux" around here as that somehow legitimizes what are in counterfeits. Counterfeits are made to deceive. Some find nothing wrong with buying counterfeits because they think it's a way of affording something they otherwise could not have. But follow the money trail...it leads to gangs, drug dealers, thugs, etc. The materials used to make counterfeiters are full of banned chemicals including lead paint and harmful tanning products. Remeber that counterfeits originate in the same country in which a manufacturer of baby formula intentionally contaminated it with toxins in order to increase profits, killing and injurying hundreds of babies. It's the same mindset with counterfeits of all types.

That's why we are so vehemently opposed to counterfeits here. They are not "faux", they are not "fake", they are counterfeit. The motto around here is that there is no difference between a counterfeit handbag and a counterfeit $100 bill...both are worthless and both are illegal (and IMHO, immoral).

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."

You can get compliments for wearing any handbag its about confidence not the designer label.Plus I dont see Kate Spade as being high quality.I think the handbags look a little too old lady for my taste.
