How To Identify A Counterfeit Designer Bags

By Yuri Qaun

Knock-off purses are handbags that are meant to imitate the popular and highly expensive designer handbags. Knockoffs come in two recognized forms. Some supposed "designer" handbags are actually total rip-offs of an original product.

They are mass-produced purposeful imitations that are created using cut-rate materials. Others are well thought-out "designer-inspired." They solely mimic the famed look of authentic designer bags made by Christian Dior, Kate Spade, Prada and others but never claim to actually be the authentic article. These products will avoid using proprietary tags and logos. Thus they are meant to be the cheap alternatives that customers desire from a designer handbag but without having a designer budget.

Designer inspired Gucci Handbags can be purchased in traditional stores, and are bought by many people who don't feel like they can afford the real thing, whereas counterfeits are sold in nontraditional markets like auction sites and flea markets. They may cost more than designer inspired pieces, even though the construction is poor. That?s because sellers of these fake handbags are hoping that you?ll believe they're authentic.

It can be extremely difficult to buy online unless you know you're dealing with a trustworthy retailer. This is why online auction sites offer feedback. It helps protect buyers from unscrupulous sellers.

An interesting tip for online differentiation between an authentic designer bag and a counterfeit is that authentic ones are carefully posed for photography one at a time so that you can actually inspect the bag, whereas counterfeits are often shown in tightly bunched groups. Also, authenticity tags are not often attached to the authentic designer bags unless it's meant to sway you into believing the product is real when it is not.

Materials are important, too. If the bag is made of cheap vinyl and has low quality stitching, it's not the real deal, since manufacturers of designer bags are very careful about their materials and construction. The picture you see should show a bag that you'd like to own.

Use a credit card to pay for any Louis vuitton handbags you want to buy, so that you have some kind of recourse if the bag that arrives isn't what was promised. Just be careful if you're buying from sellers in another country. It can be harder to contest a sale with a foreign seller, and shipping times are often so long that you'll be outside your window to complain or get a refund by the time the bag actually arrives.

Designer-inspired bags, not counterfeit bags, are sometimes also referred to as designer replica handbags. These will let you own the latest hot design for a much less expenditure. These bags will be available in online stores, as well as many discount retailers. However, at least you then know what you are buying and you know what you are going to receive, as opposed to counterfeit bags.

Designer looks and quality are worth the money for many of us. If you've been thinking about buying a designer bag, don't be taken in by fakes. Save your money and choose a beautiful designer handbag that'll last for years
