SUMMARY
- All of the stitches should be perfectly even, and there should be no loose threads or any other visual defects or imperfections. All genuine designer handbags are handmade.
- Pay special attention to small things like metal clasps, buttons, zipper pulls, plates, and locks. Their quality should be perfect, and they should have a number or a name printed on them, which is another sign of quality and authenticity.
- A famous brand doesn’t use rough leather. They only use fine, high-quality materials. When you touch them, you feel like you are in paradise.
- Fake items often have the brand names printed in different fonts, smudgy letters, or even with misspellings. Tags and labels are always a giveaway.
- The label with the number is sealed and attached in a special way, making it impossible to remove without damaging. Fake items usually have a sticker with a number that has just been glued somewhere on the surface.
- An expensive designer handbag always has expensive packaging, often made of the highest-quality materials. The package your precious bag comes in should have no color defects whatsoever.
- Before visiting a store, do some research on the specific attributes of the chosen brand. Remember – each brand has its very own distinct characteristics.

What would you chose, a fake designer handbag or a high-quality one at a lower price?
-
You lost all credibility when you pronounced Hermès as “HER-meez”. Gah.

I learned a lot watching Barbara Corcoran from Shark Tank! Now, here’s a billionaire who never buys expensive, overpriced anything. She revealed that all her jewelry is costume jewelry and she never pays more than $40 for one piece. Also, her tote bag was purchased at Marshall’s and she had it repaired twice...... that was it, my Louis Vuitton and Chanel bag went on eBay..... I just purchased a gorgeous summer bag for $30 and received numerous compliments already.... never too old to learn. No more designer bags for me. Also, how about those gals who sling a huge Louis Vuitton over their shoulder and dress like they’re going out to mow the lawn or can’t afford to pay their bills. Done

If you look at the price tag and don't go 'Yikes!', it's a fake.
-
Why am I watching this.... I'm broke anyway ?? 😂😂
-
This is my first (but not the last) purchase of a :yt:D U P B A G Y :yt:bag. For the affordable price, it exceeded my expectations! It's soft, the perfect size, and the color is gorgeous! Love this bag!:yt:
-
......in other words......buy what you can afford, the difference is hard to tell anyway....and...btw who cares😜
-
I don’t care if it’s the most authentic designer bag in the world. The money some women pay for these bags is way too much, no matter how much you have available to spend.

i'm retired .....it's just me.....i made a decision when i retired to live like a pauper, rescued four feral road dogs , give them the best life possible forever......i buy nothing for myself new, only used at Goodwill or Salvation Army....i pay bills for home and utilities, etc., then, everything the pups need, vet care, great food and supplements, fresh meat, fruit, vegetables, etc. ,cozy blankets, safe fenced yard...........it's the best retirement i could possibly have.......surrounded by unconditional LOVE !......who would trade that for fancy purses?....

My mother was a mannequin in Paris after the war, during the New Look era, a time when each designer had his/her own distinct “look” as definition. No one was overt with their labels. Hence, I grew up with the axiom, “Never wear labels for any design house, unless they are paying you; you don’t pay them!” Labels are tacky.

Personally, buy whatever you like. Your money, your choice
-
If I have the money and budget 😉 I’ll buy ... just rewarding myself for working hard .. I like the real ones 😉
-
Love :yt:HIDUPZ:yt: the way you show it! You really focus on showing off the bag. I don't think any other YouTuber can show off bags in as much detail as you.

I got a Coach crossbody at a thrift store for $35 and it's in amazing quality! Because it's not new, some of these tips won't work, but all the other ones are right! I looked up other Coach crossbodys and I'm 99% sure it's real! Yay!

To spend a hefty amount just for a brand name, i would happily choose the fake one
-
I should have known all this before I married my husband...
-
When you touch them you feel like you’re in paradise hahahahahaha

the metals are shiny, smooth and has the brand on it as well as the zipper has a sturdy and good quality.
