Sorry but this topic enrages me--I can't believe the polls are split 50-50 so far. To think that people would even consider buying a fake bag and pass it off as the real thing is a joke! First of all, those who have the real thing can always tell a fake one, secondly, would you really want to lie to yourself or those around you like that? and third, either afford it or get over it--there are enough bags for all budgets (and ages!).

I just had to comment..& i never do on these sites but I am a fashion fanatic...i ONLY buy AUTHENTIC & Real handbags & I spend an excessive amount of money doing so & I adore my bags & cherish them & I have also been buying ONLY REAL AUTHENTIC designer since my first Gucci in 1972 & I can spot a fake from a mile away...especially if Gucci,...but i have to tell you..& younger gal i chat with at work bought herself a new FAKE Vuitton, a FAKE Gucci & a FAKE Chanel bag; all from one website online that sells all fakes & she brought them into me at work & these are made so well that honestly i could not tell & the one Chanel she got,is one that I have the authentic one of & i inspected hers to a tee as well as inspected them side by side & there was really no difference...the quality was superb, the hardware was all the same & the makers marks were all the same...I got enraged because i spend ALOT on My Authentic bags & treat myself to them & now the fakes these days are EXACT & i just dont know how they get away with it!??!! Im telling you...it was exact. Now there are bad fakes & ive seen them all, but these she got just recently were PRECISELY just like the real things but at a fraction of My cost! I did research after seeing these bags & one site said that the top designers patterns & hardware designs get stolen or sold & thats how they replicate them now so well...& if this is the case...then they need to do something to make sure the people making the knockoffs cant make them this well. Seeing them made EXACTLY like my real one's actually made me think of buying some...I havent yet because the thought makes me cringe & I feel good knowing i have the real thing but if it saves me the money during this bad recession & ALOT of money WOULD be saved & then if I, who owns ONLY authentic & has been collecting since the 70's couldnt tell,then who would??? Am I totally wrong to think of buying one?? I dont think so. Why not take advantage of the savings??...Sometimes you have to bend your rules for fashion right? I'll still look like im carrying the real thing but have money saved for fabulous pair of shoes to match?..& with these bags i saw..NOBODY WOULD KNOW!??!! Ive been debating on buying one for almost 2 months now since I saw my co-workers & I havent given in....instead i bought a new Jimmy Choo Bag in the meantime..but its something i HAVE been considering on doing since money is getting tight & my significant other is annoyed with the shopping!..I may just give it one try & really see if anyone notices..because if anyone is gonna notice it would be...(besides me)..one of my friends but I dont think they will with the bags I saw this girl get at this site.
Any Thoughts? Id love to her some advice from some fellow fashion friends!
