Keep it! The bag is gorgeous and you get your money’s worth! The original has the same material actually. Only difference is the craftsmanship and how it has undergone some quality control. But I had several original ones that had cracked leather with less than a year of use and sending them back to the store for repairs was a hassle! At least with a thrift store bag you have less worries and use it to the max because it is not a museum piece, lol!
Looooove your outlook on it!!!! I actually already used it at the beach this past week! I loved it. Carefree and wasn’t worried about it getting ruined or taken lol! Hahha thanks for your comment xoxox
I have that same bag. I bought it on Amazon as an "inspired by" because the photos didn't say Goyard on the bags (assorted colors available) , so it was obviously not meant to be passed off as a real one. When it arrived, it DID have the Goyard writing on it. The straps didn't have as long of a drop as I would have liked and I tried to return it. It came from China and apparently it was more costly to have me return it to them than the bag costs itself, so I was credited AND told to keep the bag and not send it back. So I got it for free. And honestly, I have never used it outside the house. I use it to hold other bags and wallets and things in my closet LOL.
Yikes… I’m glad it all worked out at the end! I actually used it finally to the beach the past week. It was nice since I wasn’t worried about ruining it or it getting stolen. Very carefree! But it has been sitting in my closet pretty much the whole time 😂
Hi, it is very good replica I thought at first it was authentic. I bought mine recently in GM (new prices from 1st August - no more ‘special colours’) and it looks same shining like this one. The straps are different on authentic- much thinker and stiff (at least when new). I have a feeling there is too much of ‘E. Goyard Paris’ everywhere - I don’t think mine has so often printed them out. The reason why they don’t last is that ppl carry laptops or other heavy itdms in this bag. It is not designed for this purpose- its a beach bag. Goyardine is too thin for that.
I could tell this was a dupe from the way it’s pretty stiff. The real ones are way more flimsy and floppy. But 5 bucks, I think adding stickers or some art is a good idea for a beach bag 👍🏽
I noticed the 3 logos on one side are placed at the top edge, whereas the other side has the 3 logos lower. Both sides should be symmetrical. However no one will notice once you wear it. Just make sure to wear it on the side where the top logos are lower.
It looks like a pretty good replica! When you showed the lining that’s when I knew 🥺 I would love to find a thrifted authentic luxe bag but I wouldn’t even know where to start 😭
Good thing about fake you don’t pay so much money for something that’s going to tear up anyways 😊 And you don’t have to apologize at all is your money and Designers make so much money out of brainless people 🙄Is no one fault if they want to waste their money away 🤣
I knew this was fake at 2:02. It's a terrible replica. The E. Goyard, 233 R S Honore Paris Paris Y placement is all wrong. That is all you need to see to know this is a bad fake. Still LOVED this video. These educational videos are so helpful.
I would use it for storage. I 100% agree with you about fake bags. They’re most often tied to other illegal activities that are far worse. I wouldn’t burn it as that’s not good for the environment. I’m sure if the lady looking at the bags had recognized the Goyard logo she would have definitely picked it up. For $5 it was definitely worth checking out. I followed a RUclipsr who would thrift here in Canada and she quite often found authentic pieces. I remember she would find lots of Bottega Venetta slgs. At the time BV was not as popular and I hadn’t even heard of them.😂 You just never know what you’ll find. I can’t imagine donating a luxury bag when you can sell them for good money. I hope one day you will find a real treasure. As for Goyard, they don’t have a good reputation for wearing well.
Love your input! I agree with you!!! I wouldn’t literally burn it, but toss it. But that just seems wrong too. 😅 yeah, sometimes people just donate their nice bags and sometimes people don’t know it’s a luxury bag either. I hope I’ll find one… one day! I’ll keep looking ☺️
I definitely understand where you’re coming from but I think you should keep it and use it. You did not set out with the intention of buying a fake handbag so I think now that you have it you should just use it. It’s actually a very well done replica and Goyard’s are outrageously priced for what you actually get. Very well done video!
Hi Jaclyn!!!! I really appreciate your input and it really is a functional bag. I could see it being a great beach bag with no worries at all. Yeah the real ones are sooooo pricey .. it’s crazy
Girl as soon as I saw how perfect the print was I knew it wasnt an auth goyard. The authentic ones are hand painted, so each little dot is unique. I can spot a fake goyard real easily but it takes a careful and close eye. I rarely ever get close enough to authenticate someones bag in the wild! lol Use the bag, don't feel bad. Material items are just that
Ohhhh thanks girl for your comment! Loved it! I’m not too family with goyard, so it was nice to get some practice here. It was fun! I have been using the interior pouch for my cash, but not the tote yet. Thanks for your input again xoxox
Isabelle from Isabelle’s Style has a few totes from another brand that she really loves. I can’t remember the brand right now but it has a very rich history as well and I’m sure the quality is better than the Goyard. If I remember I’ll let you know.
I think you should keep it. It looks great on you and frankly, it looks very sturdy. I have heard that this particular style is meant to be a beach bag and not meant for every day use. It is a beautiful tote. Hope you are having a good summer with your beautiful family. Have you heard that LV canvas items will be hard to buy in the future and very limited?xoxo
Yeah it is actually quite sturdy so that made me think it wasn’t real lol.. 😜 since I hear the real ones are flimsy 🙈. I haven’t heard that about LV canvas… that’ll be interesting. What are your thoughts on it?
@@TabbyViolet I think LV is raising prices on canvas and limiting canvas to focus on leather items and exotics. They want a wealthy clientele who buy regularly as opposed to people like me who have to save to buy a bag.
I don't like fake bags, but the quality of many of today's luxury items has gone downhill. I would have kept it and used it as a travel bag for car trips.
I could tell Right away that this is a fake only with the handles. I can see it is not real leather and they are not thick enough. That is a cheep replica … 🤷♀️ I am being honest 😘
Enjoy that bag because it is beautiful and a well-made replica. I would say it is a 1:1 replica. Do not alter the bag. Don't feel guilty.
Thank you so much for your input! Seems like that is the overall consensus ☺️

It’s gorgeous, I’d rock it
Thank you!!! I actually used it once at the beach. Didn’t have to fuss at all about it too.

Exactly!!!!! You’re right as long it’s worn with not too much weight, it should be good! thanks so much for your input :)
I could tell this was a dupe from the way it’s pretty stiff. The real ones are way more flimsy and floppy. But 5 bucks, I think adding stickers or some art is a good idea for a beach bag 👍🏽
Yes I love it!!!!! Thanks girl!!!!! Also the stiffness threw me off too
The are stiff when new. Then with use the soften up.
I would just keep it and use it as a beach bag or something
Seems like the general consensus and vote to do that! 🤗
I noticed the 3 logos on one side are placed at the top edge, whereas the other side has the 3 logos lower. Both sides should be symmetrical. However no one will notice once you wear it. Just make sure to wear it on the side where the top logos are lower.
Very observant of you! :) it’s actually been sitting in storage for months, so I’m going to drop it off at donations again. 💕
Decided to try and keep it and try it at the beach! So far so good!
It is environmentally friendly to just use the bag or send it back. Burning it would be a waste of a perfectly functional bag.
Agree. And I wouldn’t literally burn it 😜, just toss it… but that feels wrong when it’s a perfectly functional bag.
It looks like a pretty good replica! When you showed the lining that’s when I knew 🥺 I would love to find a thrifted authentic luxe bag but I wouldn’t even know where to start 😭
One day girl one day I’ll find one 🙌🏻😘

Cmon just use it. As long as you don't claim its authentic. Use it as your shopping bag or grocery bag.
Yes, ohhh a grocery bag is a great idea!!! I actually have used the inside little bag for my cash! Thanks for stopping by
I would just use it! Why not? You are not claiming it is real.
True 🥰🥰thanks for your input!
No please don’t burn bags, it’s just a waste of resources. Just give it someone to use as a grocery bag. Most people don’t even know what Goyard is.
Of course, I wouldn’t really burn it :). I actually used it as a beach bag☺️
I bought mine at goodwill but its fake just use it
Girl as soon as I saw how perfect the print was I knew it wasnt an auth goyard. The authentic ones are hand painted, so each little dot is unique. I can spot a fake goyard real easily but it takes a careful and close eye. I rarely ever get close enough to authenticate someones bag in the wild! lol Use the bag, don't feel bad.

It’s mechanically screen painted for about 20 years now. The bags are no longer hand painted.
Enjoy your bag. Don’t burn it. There are plenty of people who could use it. Just donate it back to the store so someone less fortunate can use it .
Isabelle from Isabelle’s Style has a few totes from another brand that she really loves. I can’t remember the brand right now but it has a very rich history as well and I’m sure the quality is better than the Goyard. If I remember I’ll let you know.
Hi, it’s Faure Le Page, I bought one after seeing Isabelles video and it’s great much thicker and more durable than goyard
Ohhhh now I’ll check it out!!! Thank you Debbie!
@@beeshopspink do you have a video on them? Thanks girl
@@beeshopspink thank you! I’m glad you’re happy with it. I was going to go and find Isabelle’s video but I forgot.😂
@@TabbyViolet I think Isabelle has done several videos. She was even invited to a store for an opening or private event in Australia.
Oh my, paint on it & use to trash it. 👍🏼 thanks for sharing my lady. 😘😘😘Sandy
