When I hear "made in Italy" I think of a craftsmen at his work bench toiling over my bag with the finest quality. When I hear "made in China" I think of my purse falling from a chute onto a conveyor belt and someone on an assembly line screwing the handles on.

However that is all perception based on imagined ideas. For all I know the only difference between the factories in China and Italy are the nationality of the people working there. :confused1:

Hate to burst your bubble, but a lot of the "Made in Italy" stuff is still made by Chinese people. To wit:

...Most brands aren’t so straightforward. To please customers looking for the “Made in Italy” label, several luxury companies now have their goods made in Italy by illegal Chinese laborers. Today, the Tuscan town of Prato, just outside of Florence and long the center for leather-goods production for brands like Gucci and Prada, has the second-largest population of Chinese in Europe, after Paris. More than half of the 4,200 factories in Prato are owned by Chinese entrepreneurs, some of whom pay their Chinese workers as little as two Euros ($3) an hour.

i have a haymarket check pattern handbag its made it Italy and this is one of my favorite, but i also have a new nova check wallet style # 10000005609 (still in the burberry website) this one is made in china. All items described in the webpage of burberry will indicate MADE IN ITALY if its made in Italy and IMPORTED if this is made in China. As long as this is authentic even if its made in china i am sure this has the same quality (passed the quality control of BURBERRY). Its the counterfeit/fake burberry that are made in china that has no quality because the manufacturers do not care with quality for the trade mark is not theirs.

One of my friends baught one from the burberry store in Toronto that was made in China that she paid 800$ for and she saw a fake one on the internet and baught it to compare (it was only like 60$ with shipping) and it was actually indentical we examined everything about it and authetnicated them both it on a different website (didn't know about this site then) and people were saying both were authetic. We also braught it to the Burberry store and they said it was fake only noticable due to the serial number everything else looked authentic. I found this to be very weird and kinda angered me that Burberry would make things in China that are so easily replicated that can almost fully be easily passed off as authentic if you just contact a cheap knockoff place and give them an authentic serial number you copied from a burberry store. My Rant is over.
