I do not like fake 'designer' bags, nor do I care for anything fake. I am also concerned about the new revelations pertaining to the negative activities which the sell of fake merchandise is supporting, etc. At the same time, I'm deeply troubled that some TPF members are using this thread to make fun of people (especially the photos of people with fake bags). Those of us who are passionate about the 'real deal' should take extra care not to become prideful. Besides, there are 'fake people' who have been known to carry real bags.
Very well put! I am all for authentic bags and think the fakes are ridiculous too- but we should try not to judge. I mean, do we carry these bags for ourselves because we love them or just to show off that we have the money to buy expensive bags?
