My Aunt has a Gucci bag that she carries everywhere and people are always asking her if it's real - :wtf:
Why would you ask someone that? It's like asking a stranger how much they make or if their nose is real.
Blows my Mind! :noggin:
 
Yeah..people do that nowadays and it's annoying. I've had it happen to me before and I've seen it happen.
Weirdly enough though, I think so many people must be used to seeing fakes all over that when they see an authentic one, they think it's fake.
Sad, really, but I think people need to keep their rude questions to themselves. Another one I hate is when some stranger asks how much my bag cost.
Here on this forum, if someone asks, I don't care because that's why we're here..to discuss bags. But random people on the street? It just seems more nosy than anything.
 
I live in a small town, and I've actually never been asked if my bag is real:o However, one did ask about my chanel sunglasses, and it was quite amusing, because first she asked how much they cost, and I answered the price that is equivalent to a little bit more than $400 in the local currency, and *then* she proceeds to ask if they were real... I just looked dumb at her...
 
A woman I work with made a comment about my Damier Alma being a really good knockoff. I had to laugh. I just told her that I sure HOPE it looks good -- since I got it at the LV boutique!!! :p

HAAAAA....I would have asked her how she knew it was a knockoff!!!!
 
Ugh...IMHO, people asking if your bag is fake is something we all have to hear if we have well known bags. I live in a rather smallish town, so when I wear my speedy out, I constantly get remarks asking if it's real. It's so annoying, but I think it's what happens to people who have bags with the initals on them...LV, Gucci, Fendi...etc.
It's SO infuriating!!:hysteric:
 
My favorite was the time my friend and I were carrying our LV multicolore Almas..I have white, she has black.
Anyway we were outside of one of my classes before it started and this lady comes up to us and asks how much we paid for our bags..and we go, "Um..like $1200."
And she goes, "Man you got ripped OFF! I can get you a huge duffle bag for only $40!!"
And we were like, "No that's ok..we don't buy fakes."
The lady just got this funny look on her face and walked away because she didn't know what to say lol.

LOL!! :laugh: That was a good reply!

I haven't been asked if my bag is real or fake... I don't really mind people asking, cos I know it's real.

So far I've only got questions on the price of the bag.
