Quite possibly the worst designer handbag replicas. You would have to be a complete idiot to believe that these are the real things!!

Have you ever been paroosing on ebay, looking for a deal on your favorite Louis Vuitton, when you are brought to a sea of fakes? Granted, some fakes are pretty darn good (until they fall apart after a few uses, of course) but others are just laughable! Have you ever come across such a horrible looking fake, and wonder who would be stupid enough to actually believe it could be the real deal?? (The price tag not being the biggest giveaway, of course.) Like many of you other fashion obsessed, I regularily go on ebay or other auction websites to see what steals I can find. But lately, all I can find is a bunch of Asian scammers thinking that we Americans (or whatever your nationality may be) are just plain dumb. By passing these fakes up for the real thing, all I want to ask is, how stupid do they think we are? If you regularily buy fakes, or even if they're just an every-now-and-then purchase, I'm not here to judge. We all do it, whether we want to admit it or not because really, most of us are just too damn lazy, busy, or stuck paying for more important things (such as rent) to save up over $1000 on that timeless Chanel. Whatever your story (or excuse, really) is, never be caught carrying these truly awful fakes. Read on, and laugh with me if you will, at these fakes, fakes, fakes!









Ahhh. Isn't it great when you spend nearly $200 for a "very rare" plastic Louis Vuitton??? Let's check out the label inside since this is "proof" of authenticity and "rarity."









ahh look at that! All of the incorect markings! What is with the squiggly line at the top, the signature of Louis V himself?? Let's not even get into detail about the stitching... Sorry to whoever is manufacturing this garbage, but replicating a Louis Vuitton is NOT your forte!! And to whoever is listing this to sell as "authentic," yes a lot of pictures is KEY, but if your product is an obvious fake, do not provide proof of it.











"Give the perfect gift of the luxurious Louis Vuitton Neverfull, in multi color! 100% authentic guaranteed!" Oh yes, what a lovely idea! Because I totally want my boyfriend to buy me a Neverfull style that totally doesn't exist. Everything about this "Neverfull" is completely wrong.










For $1000, you can have this true beauty! An "authentic quality discontinued Chanel cambon tote bag!" Is it just me, or is where seriously something wrong with that bag, yet alone the description? "authentic quality?" And a bag this ugly, it's discontinued for a reason. And a lesson anybody can learn from this picture alone, just because the word authentic is in the description, it doesn't neccesarily mean it is.






Oh look everybody! Chanel must have extended the color options for the Cambon ballet shoe line!! Now, you can get tan, squash orange, blinding silver, and gaudy gold as well as the original colors of black, pink, and white! And the owner of these shoes loves them so much, that they bought one of each pair!! They must have spent over $1000 for 7 pairs of Chanel shoes. Why is the starting price only $30????? hmmmm......







Don't you just love it when Chanel brings back a discontinued line, in a new, ever so chic color... carrot orange???






I got quite a laugh from this one! hahahahahahahaha there's honestly nothing funnier than a Coatch patchwork replica, I swear! Counterfeiters can never seem to get them right!!







And here's another one... try not to lose your lunch while viewing this "vintage" Coach.

Spotting fakes sure is a fun thing to do on your downtime! In fact, be on the lookout for a part 2 of this post, while I will also blog some guides on how to educate you on spotting the decent fakes from the real deals.
