I bought an authentic Louis Vuitton handbag from ebay.
After getting my bag, I went around Saks and decide to do some investigating myself.
To my surprise, the saleslady told me that my bag is fake. She mentioned that there are many fake handbag currently in the market.
This polite sale person shared with me on how to spot a fake designer handbag.
I could not get any refund from ebay.
You can either spend a huge amount of money and get the bag from a reputable store or you could risk it like me and get it over online at a cheaper price.
The abundance of fake handbags mean that those bag you see on the street is probably fake.
Now, why spend the money to have the guaranteed authenticity when everyone is going to assume that your handbag is not real at all? Well, whether or not it is worth having a real bag is up to you.
Today, you can walk down the streets of New York City and be led into a back alley where you will have be shown lots of replica designer handbags.
Be careful, the law is not very tolerant towards such fake bag transaction.
There was a wide spread crack down of ebay on fake goods sale.
Make sure that if you intend to sell something that is authentic, you have proof to back up the authenticity claim. Otherwise, don't list it.
