+1 :tup: I agree. It makes no sense to me at all, especially when you can watch the sales at the retail stores & the outlets & get them at very reasonable prices. And those fakes you see at the flea markets are so FUGLY!!! :nogood: I don't understand why anyone would want to be seen with those on their arm!

I would be so embarrassed 😳. I would much rather own a nice Nine West than a fake designer brand.

Me, too. I wouldn't carry a fake designer, period. I would rather carry a nice, leather store brand bag than one of those fake bags. They're so cheap & tacky looking. I wonder are those people really that ignorant as to think those bag are authentic? Or do they all think everyone else is ignorant & think they're carrying an authentic bag? I just SMH!!

Most people don't care. They think no once notices the lack of quality. I see their comments defending their fake bags thinking it's a victimless crime. They think it's comparable to generic products. I can compare certain foods and cleaning products, but craftsmanship is completely different! Some people just don't know. They think they are getting a good deal when they're getting ripped off. Either way, it's sad.

I just don't get it, why buy fake when I have seen authentic MK, coach etc for less than 150 bucks, just sitting on clearance tables in department stores. I have seen these fakes in flea markets and asked how much, I swear I "clutched my pearls"!! I bought one of my selma's for less than 70 dollars on sale after markdowns! I only have a few i paid retail for. The fakes I see are not even in a style MK produces, just nasty cheap made up trashbags with a handle and a faded emblem superglued to it. I saw a fake coach that was awful yesterday, zippers everywhere, strings everywhere. Just swinging that plastic mass of destruction like its the real deal. I just shake my head when I see them.

+2! And to top it off, they are all made of dangerous materials that are not approved by any government agencies! They poisonous LEAD based dyes and dangerous, illegal metal alloies and plastics on them that are not only harmful to the environment, but to those that are buying them and their children who be handling them, as well! I just don't get it either. As I have repeadly stated, us ladies need to get the word out, even off of this forum! Put it on your facebook! Tell everyone you can so people can become educated consumers. I can't believe how many still don't know any of this, in this day and age!

I saw a girl with a fake bag wearing 200 dollar sneakers. The shoes were not counterfeit as i have bought them for myself and the kiddos. My 17 yr old son said China is now producing knockoff Nike's-WTH!! He's a "sneakerhead", so he knows sneakers, real and fake. Our bags are not the only things counterfeited. It just confuses me. Spend the money on shoes, just carry whatever as a handbag. They are not fooling anyone with that crap. I would rather jam my pockets with my stuff than carry a fake.

I have never seen a fake MK bag in real life. Sadly tho, I have seen many fakes on YouTube and it is usually younger girls that truly think they have purchased a genuine MK bag! :( The "leather" usually looks plastic like and very cheap...almost wrinkled! The handles are very flimsy. The inside isn't the true MK pattern and there is metal in places it shouldn't be! Usually on fakes the lock doesn't really work...where as on the authentic it does! Hope I helped some. :(

They will fake anything that will sell. I have seen fakes of basically anything in "china town" downtown Toronto. They have the most ridiculous fakes down to the most realistic. We're talking jeans, bags, shoes, jewelry, hats... Whatever. I'm sure it's the same in new York and LA, those illegal vendors that take you into a basement to buy a "legit" handbag. Right..... It's scary.

Lol, that's true! My mom worked at a monthly rent apartment building that a lot of foreign students would stay at for their student exchange. She'd show me all the things they'd leave behind.. All fake gucci, guess, michael kors, etc. Most of these were students from Asia. Not pointing the finger or anything, but since that's where most of these counterfeit items come from I expect it to be a lot cheaper /easier to get a hold of. These bags were so sloppy and the handles were frayed and cracked. I dunno how they think people don't notice these things. You look ridiculous carrying something fake because it's OBVIOUS!

I've said it before, people where I come from cannot tell guess from Gucci, it is true!!! So no, they see a fake mk bag or something they just ASSUME that it is real because they just don't know! It is really really sad. I'm slowing teaching my mom how to spot a fake MK because they run rampant in my area and it makes me so mad because I have so many Mk bags and the last think I want is for the reverse to happen and for people to just assume I have a fake one because so does everyone else. Strange times.

Yup. I'm just like, "just smell the leather!" you can't cover up that fake plastic smell no matter how hard you try.
