    This bothers me ... and same with people who buy "non-designer" items and think that its so "high-class", "haute-couture" - it's so annoying seeing them flaunt it, when there's nothing real special about it because half the world has it too.

    Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do. If you are hanging around with a crowd that sports the hottest shit money can buy, you will feel the pressure. And if you don't have the money......... drive to chinatown and get yourself a mao pai handbag......

    THere's really nothing wrong with people who buy these fake things cuz they may not have money or they may be saving this money to use it on something else, it shouldn't effect on what kind of a person they are.

    if u feel the pressure.. hang out with another group. buying fakes will only add pressure.. unless you can carry it off well..

    ^ same here, but you know what the best idea is ladies and gentlemen????

    Here's a tip I give you from my mum and her girlfriends:
    (NOTE: the people you CAN trust she participate in this)

    You got a few real handbags, expensive ones and what not, your girlfriends or friends also have the real deal and other styles, brands ect...
    Here it comes...
    SHARE!
    My mum and her girls are like best friends, and if they fancy wearing whatever outfit, and their girlfriend got the bag to match, pick up the phone, give em a call and see if they aren't sporting the bag and if you can borrow it.
    That way, you're always carrying a different bag, it's da real deal AND it didn't cost you shit loads to carry the bag lol.
    Plus to other people who don't know, it makes you look totally rich when they see you but your always with a different bag. lol

    Yeah, I agree. Not everyone has enough money to buy those expensive bags. Especially if you're a student, you'd rather pay your tuition.

    ^That's true as well. Though I don't have to deal with this problem cause I live in a small town and it doesn't matter really about the brand. I haven't seen any girls carrying around a LV or Gucci bag or whatever. Well maybe I have, I just don't realize. I noticed the Gucci sun glasses and stuff.

    i was in chinatown the other day and this person was seeling fake puma running shoes. instead of puma, it said pumo. i dunno why ppl would buy fakes. if i can't afford the real thing, then i don't buy it at all.
    and quite honestly, if u don't have money, even if u carry the real thing, ppl are just gonna believe its fake. if ur rich, u could carry fakes and ppl would still believe its real.

    well if ur gonna get a fake, atleast make sure it says the right thing =P

    i've bought quite a few fakes here (im in china lol)
    but i prefer the ones where uc an't see the brand/label
    im only getting it for the style, as opposed to the brand
    if only there was more no-name brands that had nice style =)

    ppl with fake stuff r just so cheap... don get it if u cant afford.. u can lie to others but not urself... rather buy a no brnad cheap stuff than a fake stuff... its quite easy to differentiate fake n real stuff some time.. like for lv/gucci u can feel it.. honestly..

    i think it is effected by the local culture and buying trend for the country in regards to imiiation goods.
