I do not have the cash to go for a real bag, but im crazy for Louis Vuitton Irene Suede bag. I found a excellent replica at htpp://www.luxurybagland.com and im really tempted to buy it. It would really help your advise, has anybody bought from them? Are they serious? would you buy an exact replica for USD 200 when the real one is over USd3600?
PLEASE HELP ME MAKE MY MIND!

Personally I wouldnt have a fake bag, no matter how much it looks like the proper thing. But thats just me. I've never ordered from them, and I wouldn't.

Honestly even on the show "the city," the girls that work for Elle Magazine went downtown NY and bought replicas and they couldn't even tell the real from the fake, the only real difference was the inside of the bag (material) bc usually looking from the outside of a handbag its the exact bag but you pay WAY less!

but having that said, if the order is an out of the country shipment, it is out of our jurisdiction if they don't ship you the bag and you may never see the bag nor the money, but no i haven't ordered from that website before, and yeah I may consider buying a faux bag one day bc ive seen the fakes for my chanel bag and it looks exactly like my real one!

If you don't have cash for the real thing, why pretend you do by getting a fake one? Some people can easily tell if you have a rip-off designer bag (I bet Tammy can! Also, I saw a website that told you what the alterations replicas have from the real thing). You'll look fake if someone points it out to you.

If you have a budget, get a cute purse from Forever21 or Charlotte Russe. I got mine at a small boutique in my town (its sadly closed now, I'm so upset! There was so much more I wanted to buy!!) It was $35 (on sale, regular $50), it's big, its really pretty, and its durable (I got it before summer started of this year, and I use it everyday for EVERYTHING). You don't NEED to have a designer's name on the bag, even if it is fake.

I kinda agree. I mean I know you like it, but I would say don't even pay that much just buy a ton of other purses!

Does anybody remember the huge discussion (or maybe it was even a rant) that went on in this forum awhile back. i hope it dosent lead to that again ahhh.
I buy what appeals to me, designer or not.

^ That's a good attitude.
Right now I don't even have the cash to buy what appeals to me, but anyway, that's a different story ...

I'd rather save up the cash to buy the real thing. It seems stupid to have a fake version of something you can't afford, like you're pretending to be something you're not.

Of course people can tell! The ones who know, know. The ones who don't know, don't. Designer purses (I mean high end. Not that Coach and Dooney stuff) are perfect. You will NOT find a thread out of place, or even a loose thread. Everything is symmetrical, if the logo is cut off at a certain spot at the zipper, it will be cut at the SAME EXACT spot along that line.

Buying a fake purse is like buying a Kia and slapping a Mercedes logo in the front. WE CAN STILL TELL!

That's a perfect way of explaining it!

I'd just save for a really nice bag from a different make.
