How to Recognize Counterfeit Designer Handbags

You should really avoid buying counterfeit designer handbags and there is more than one reason why you should avoid it. For starters, black marketers involved in such business enjoy a “tax benefit” that we don't, that is we have to pay taxes for what we earn and they don't. Another more serious reason is that every time you buy a knockoff Prada or Gucci handbag, you are actually helping organized crime because the money earned from these sales go to such purposes somehow. The final and most obvious reason is of course, that the duplicate bags can never match up to the aesthetics and quality of the original product just because it looks similar.

No more are the fake bags made with bad spelling mistakes on logos and haphazard materials; even these phonies are beginning to look more and more like the original handbags. Here are a few tips on how to avoid a fake product like that.

Where you buy your next handbag from can be a big determinant in deciding what you end up with, authentic or fake. Places like mall kiosk, Chinatown (New York) or Santee Alley (Los Angeles) can never sell original designer handbags. Neither will you find a original Gucci at a street vendor or a flea market or at a home party. You can only and should always buy your designer from registered authorized dealers of the brands.

Websites of the brands, like Coach or Kate, usually has all the details enlisted on their websites with the help of which you can spot even the best of the counterfeit handbags.

The price is certainly something that you must keep in mind, whenever you see a “too good to be true” type price tag on a handbag from a brand, know it probably is.

The “made in” tag that is supposed to determine the manufacturing country can be a give away in some cases. Although with the passing of each day, the counterfeit bags are starting to look like their exact real counterparts, you may still find a few mistakes on these bags like a “made in Taiwan” sticker instead of an expected “made in Italy” tag. Avoid not only such handbags but also the place that is selling them as all the items in the place are in all possibility, duplicates.

It is not true that all the designer handbags that are sold at a low price are fakes, sometimes massive discounts are offered on the internet by a legitimate dealer website if a brand has some overstocks or rejects that they want to liquidate. If however, a website is indeed selling fakes, then you will find the details of a product uses phrases like “inspired by” or “high quality” to describe their product. Search our website which may give you all the details that you need in order to buy your next genuine, affordable and “not so affordable” handbag.
