After buying super fakes for a test drive and then getting into exclusively buying authentics, I can tell you most people will never be able to tell the difference. Most don't even know the designer if it's a understated brand. Super fakes are not cheap either if you want quality imported leather, mirror copies, etc. they start in the 200 range and can go up into the 1k-2k range depending on what you're getting (bags, jewelry, shoes, etc). If you find a good artisan they can make you copies or even original designs.
Canal street and similar street markets have barely passable fakes, most are overpriced for the low/mid range quality they are. I didn't get into fakes to create an "image", I just love fashion and designer pieces. Besides, mid-range and fast fashion brands "dupe" and rip luxury designers off every single season, so I don't view them as anything special or original. Dupes also almost always have inferior quality to the designer version, in a way it's like buying a fake in itself. And TONS of people buy them for the sole reason of "it looks like the designer" and "i wanna look trendy for the gram"..."iNfLuEnCeR ViBeS".
Take Zara for example, how ethical do you really believe they are? Their factories? Their treatment of workers? The materials they use for their goods, is it all non-toxic? They churn out designer rip offs and charge exorbitant amounts of money for polyester at the end of the day. Shein anyone? 🫢🤮 They're probably one of the worst with their proven toxic & cancerous goods.
As for the 'organized crime', canal street and other street markets probably fund those kinds of things but if you find a private artisan overseas they are just trying to feed their kids, not a gang lmao. There's a lot of scandal around authentic brands too fyi...the whole Balenciaga thing? Wtf was that? It's literally part of organized crime. 😡
Agree with you 100%. And anyone that thinks the designers are being ripped off is delusional. They were paid for their design work and on to the next best thing, they could give a hoot about what happens after that.
@@babycakes1402 Yes that's what I mentioned in the start of my comment. Superfakes can run from the 200-2k (even higher for exotic skins) range depending on the brand, quality, and design. They're extremely difficult to differentiate from authentics by the average person, usually only experts or special authenticating software can determine the authenticity and sometimes even those fail. What is upsetting is that some are taking advantage of this and flooding the preloved market with these superfakes, listing them as the real thing. 😞
no excuse for supporting or condoning black market fakes & the lies that are told for fakes.
Only inexperienced people can't tell the difference or people who don't care to say anything
@@ErikaBardereGirl bye
How many bags are left besides work? *preluxs*
I bought a fake Louis Vuitton tote bag that to me looked fake...but I cannot tell you how many women with real Louis V. bags have come up to me and chatted about my "vintage" LV bag. It's a fake bag, people! But that proved to me that people see what they want to see.
Excellent point. I have a friend who has experienced the same thing. I do think a lot of it depends on where you live too. I could carry a fake and no one would know the difference.
@@flohough1870 Well, I live in San Francisco so everyone and their sister, mother and aunt has a real L.V. or a fake one!😄😄
*amzrepx* You are so well-informed about luxury accessories and bags. You've obviously done your due diligence and the comparison to the US is very informative...because of course, I live in New York. thank you very much.
$20000 to $30000 can help homeless families stay and provide them with food. Why waste so much money? Why not buy replicas instead *preluxs*
My mom bought one *preluxscom* and she loves it. It had been there for over 10 years when she went out with it.
I have replicas and authentic bags, one time one of my friends swear that my authentic gucci bag was fake saying I didn’t have the “means” to buy it, or that even if it was real ppl wouldn’t believe it, and then I had people complementing on my fake neverfull bag which was $100 dollars on dh gate 💀so at that point I’m like people are gonna believe whatever they want to believe choose whatever makes you happy cuz at the end of the day nobody really f cares ! 🤣🤣
I’ve complemented people who are clearly carrying fake bags on purpose. I do it to see the reaction and if they will tell me it’s a fake. I just smile and move on.
That’s your friend?
@@tbow7412 weird
*amzrepx* A good fake luxury bag brand. I can't tell the difference at all because their quality is amazing.
That's a shitty jealous friend tbh 😂
My aunt and uncle are very well off, like multiple 8 figure net worth. Uncle is a self-made commercial real estate investor and he owns multiple warehouse buildings in a tech-heavy area and has a few factories in the US and overseas for his old manufacturing business. Exported a fleet of Tesla Model X’s for his overseas team with the hefty tariffs that come along with it. Even then, my aunt exclusively owns replica handbags because they value that money to be put elsewhere, be it other investment opportunities or back into their existing businesses. Not all rich people value luxury goods the same way. My aunt and uncle didn’t come from money, so they value it more than just blowing tens of thousands on a brand name marketing.
Edits: grammar
Where does she buy from
Sorry but i honestly think they just tell people they’re fake so they don’t get robbed or envied. You’re very gullible.
🥴
So why buy replicas at all? Why not buy unbranded or midrange bags?
@@AC-ee8cv hi! I am a Chinese wholesaler and offer preferential prices. We sell Lv, Gucci, Chanel, Hermes, Rolex, Patek Philippe and so on.
kay, I’ve always scratched my head about the obsession around the *preluxs* book totes and their practicality, but this one is adorable!! Congratulations
HEY *preluxs* !! I have been watching you for years and im so proud of where you have made it! I love you so much! Also thanks for making my day.
Love *preluxs* the way you show it! You really focus on showing off the bag. I don't think any other RUclipsr can show off bags in as much detail as you.
Unashamedly, yes I buy reps! I never cared what folks thought of how I spend MY money. Also I buy really nice undetectable reps…that’s the key
where do you buy them?
Yeah where?
Me too! 😅 buy really good replicas 🤷🏾♀️
Why not buy a genuine bag for the same price from a brand you can comfortably afford?
Me too!
As someone who used to work in retail (specifically as a someone selling name brand bags), I realized you really don’t need to spend more than $50-$100 on a high quality bag.
As a worker, some companies might give you over 50%-75% on a bag that can be priced up just because it has a brand name attached to it.
As long as that bad fits your needs and you love the look, that should be it!
Also supporting small businesses who make their own bags is also a plus, you don’t need to drop money on things that have a name attached to it!
Well said!
Can you give more details on these high quality bags costing $50-100, like fabric, size, where to find, etc. Thankyou!
I love this. I’m a luxe shopper and love high quality goods. However, high quality doesn’t mean it needs to be high priced. I always go for *suluxs* , their quality is great. Great video.
I believe no girl can refuse *suluxs* yt
Really nice points made in this Video. I've just sent an email to you asking about the link/website for the 1:1 you recommend :) *suluxs*
i love you so much! I recently just found your mamacoo and i’m in love!! Your videos are so fun and you energy is just MWAH! keep living your life
Come across this video randomly and I watched *luxdups* OMG your closet is every women’s dream! Love your voice and the way you talk
What is the real thing? Are they not bags? Do they not hold things?
Some people view these items as art pieces and don’t want the piece to be remade by someone who is not the original artist.
My thoughts exactly. “Is it real?” Yes! It’s not imaginary is it? 😂
A bag is a bag is a bag!
Leather costs $0.0001 in south asia, these real bags cost nothing
My mom bought one *preluxscom* and she loves it. It had been there for over 10 years when she went out with it.
I don’t even wanna spend $40 at target on a bag. I can’t imagine spending several thousand dollars.
Absolutely
I used to be like that too but recently I decided I deserve nice things. I'm not ready to spend thousands on a bag but I did buy a Marc Jacobs leather tote for 450 and an mcm for 700 and got a 15 percent off coupon from neiman marcus😂
Some ppl really love a good handbag and would rather spend their money on that than other things , it’s all on preferences ! I collect them , I have idk how many at this point , over 30 designer ones . I don’t buy the fad bags like trendy stuff tho … that I would suggest finding a dupe or rep in because it’s fleeting and you will be lucky to break even selling it , much less make any profit down the line . I do have some I just love using tho .
As my business grows and I make more and more money, I will still avoid buying genuine products, especially after prices continue to rise. *amzrepx*
I appreciate *amzrepx* 's attention to detail in every bag they make. Zippers, handles and stitching are carefully crafted to make their bags true works of art. And their prices are so surprising to me!
I completely agree, I have bought both real and fake designer goods, but I often find it hard to blow $$$ when I know I could put it into my investments. I always think I deserve this new whatever it is, but I don’t I deserve financial freedom 🎉 love you by the way ❤
Excellent point.
Beautiful luxury bags I think all girls love, but the price is making life difficult for us, thanks *amzrepx* for visiting.
It's been months since I bought my *amzrepx* tote and it still looks the same as when I bought it. I have to admit that they did a really good job in this regard. The craftsmanship and durability of these bags is truly impressive.
*amzrepx* bag I love it so much, it sparkles in the sun, has so many positive reviews, can always wear it with any outfit!
Love your personality and you make a ton of sense!! *amzrepx*
I've never understood the fake bags thing because you could literally just buy a lower priced bag. People complaining about Chanel prices can easily find similar style bags for less, but they don't because at the end of the day, what they want is to pass a Chanel bag as real. I can't afford a Chanel bag but have a small boxy bag that I bought from a maker on etsy. It was a $100 leather bag. No one needs a fake. To me, it's the equivalent of would you have the same energy if someone stole your videos, art, etc and justified it with, well you already make money so what's the harm?
100% agree with you
Good job, ur not fucked lol. This is the same mentality as going for draws, if you don’t win then move on. Buying a fake doesn’t give you the same feeling, if you really want it then go make the money and pay to play.
I agree with you. even getting a nice leather bag from banana republic, coach or quince...but...
She does have a point about looking the part in certain social circles. I see both sides.
Nope because a Michael Kors bags is still a Michael Kors bag not a Chanel bag....
But these high end brands often steal designs and art from smaller brands all the time. So really, that’s not a moral high ground to stand on.
*yutulu* bag collection and subscribers have grown. And somehow she remained grounded, relatable, authentic. That’s why I’m still here

Most people cannot tell a $20 bag from a $20,000 bag. Trust me! My $25 purse from Ross makes people think I’m rich and ???? enough to pay so much on a bag!
I totally agree!!
I purchased a *amzrepx* replica bag. I have to admit that the quality is very good and I like their products.
Thank you so much for meeting *amzrepx* and letting me buy the same bag at a lower price.
*#amzrepx* The craftsmanship and durability of is truly impressive.

I bought a fake in nyc once. It just didnt sit well with me. It made me feel fake. Id rather buy a bag i like at a lower price point than a knockoff.
I totally agree. I rather be real than fake it till you make it type of mentality. I dont need to attract gold digging girlfriends either.
My college friend worked on Wall St. one summer. She spent her free time working on connections to get original quality bags! She was proudest of an ostrich leather mini. I believe it was LV.

I have one *esluxscom* bag I got in 2019, it's the LV white catogram speedy. It's counter quality and it has a nice honey patina now, so the leather is real. I think whatever makes you happy go for it. I've seen LV with plastic leather and blood red glaze...
You know my grandmother gave me a fake *condupcom* bag because she knew I like pretty things and she thought it was pretty too. I was 22 years old at that time. I really don't care. People thought it was true. When she died 4 years ago. To me, that bag is worth more than any of my bags and jewelry combined. Ignore them. this is precious to you.

Lovely and love it, ordered this size, great value for money, can't wait to buy again in different styles and colors *hotdups* .
Great video!! I had been THINKING about this for a LONG TIME and no one else is talking about it 🎉❤
Girl where have been. This has been going on for awhile now *suluxs*
I love your voice! Thanks for sharing your lovely *preluxscom* bag / wardrobe collection :) I actually love how you store your collection and definitely an inspiration for me in my future home

After Chanel ridiculously hiked up their price, I was done. No way a medium flap will cost over 9k. I started looking for other brands and watched several RUclips videos and did my own search. I was able to find a really great seller. Just ordered a Dior Bobby and could not tell the difference 😭 If I could return my authentic one, I would have already. Now I feel silly spending all that money on it 🤦🏽♀️
Can you share where you got the bag
Where to buy?
@ayena2600 where’d you got the bag?
@@azi_adam_ I have a seller I get high tier rep on the style that I like.

I love functional leather goods like handbags, wallets, and eyeglass cases. They leather feels softer, warmer, than synthetic materials. There are plenty of companies that make quality leather products at a reasonable price. They don’t fall apart like the fake designer goods do either.
I agree
I 100% agree with you.
PLENTY of sustainable, small makers out there. Why spend hundreds on a fake just for the look?
I still love my LV reverse monogram *esluxscom* clutch! It's versatile, fits a variety of items, and is definitely a workhorse! I think seeing it everywhere (like the LV speedy) is proof that it's already a classic.
You know a lot about *esluxscom* luxury accessories and bags. Obviously you've done your due diligence and the comparisons to the U.S. are very rich... because of course, I live in New York. Thank you so much.
Before promoting counterfeit goods, I would suggest looking into the makers of counterfeit and the industries counterfeits fund (google that and tons of articles from reputable publications come up from as far back as 2000s on this). The option of fakes makes financial sense but from an ethical sense, “is it responsible” would be another question that should be asked.
The exact same is true for many of the luxury houses themselves.

I live close to the Mexico border. I always go for *esluxscom* , their quality is great. Some of them are made with leather and really hard to tell the difference from real or not. Either way, it’s your choice. No judgement from me
*preluxscom* bags just outclassed the rest..too good
Sorry mate but an actual Chanel classic Flap superfake goes for *esluxscom* 00 dollars when purchased directly from the factory and passes at least 5 of your checks.

I buy replicas and guess what I have a nice savings account, I own a house and I drive a new Lexus. My priorities are in order. You got folks on youtube buying luxury bags but sleeping in a family members living room with maxed out credit cards. How does that make sense?

hi, *preluxs* ,i just wanna tell you that you make my day with your videos. you have srsly helped me through not so happy times!!! thank you.
I guess my only issue with buying fake bags is people spend real money on none authentic things. But your point on classic styles is important
agreed. i rather have one authentic bag than 10 replicas. if i want a chanel flap but with a limited budget, just get one from a reputable reseller like fashionphile, i don't need a brand new chanel flap bag every year/season. if i only want to spend $500 on a bag, i'd just get a polene or coach, the quality and craftmanship are there, and still authentic.
When a handbag costs as much as a car, who wouldn't pay 1% of the expensive price to get a cheaper one? , when I became an adult, my mother taught me moderation, and on her recommendation I used *condupcom* , so that I could be satisfied with my moderation life.

I bought a LV bag at *hotdups* a few years ago. I took it to the LV store in my town last week to have it repaired. A store clerk inspected my bag and immediately told me that the bag was of excellent quality. She pulled a current bag out of inventory and compared the tags and I saw ZERO differences.
Great video. Very informative. You content is good and the way you explain is awesome.

From my experience, buying a famous brand is very troublesome. It costs a lot of money first and needs to be maintained later. Once it breaks, I have to wait 1 to 2 months to restore it. *condupcom* . I want one A more convenient way.
Do you find it too wide/big and bulky? I’ve just bought the *esluxscom* which is basically the same width and my only worry is it bumping into things and wear on the corners, has yours scuffed?

I really wanted a Chanel classic flap bag, when I finally had enough to buy one, they did a price increase, the sales people were incredibly rude to me, and they didn’t eve have one bag in stock in my area that I wanted. Also, I started watching some horror stories about how the Chanel bags just are made like they used to be, in a sense, Chanel is selling authentic counterfeit bags if you think about it! If they are using their own heritage and quality to sell a bag that is even cheaper! It’s terrible! 10,000 is a ton of money for a bag! I still wanted a Chanel bag, but I wanted the quality of it without the fear. So, I bought an expensive fake. I didn’t know then, about the criminal activity and possibility of child labor behind purchasing it at the time though.
should've bought a pre-love one instead of a fake.

There was a very recent documentary and they were interviewing very well-off women. These women were speaking about how they no longer purchase authentic purses and have chosen to purchase really good *esluxscom* of the designer bags that they do like. They then take that saved money and invest their money into other things such as real estate, stocks etc.

I'm not a fancy bag girl--not having the kind of lifestyle that requires a designer handbag, I buy purses at Goodwill or even make my own--so you would think none of this advice applies to me. But it absolutely does. The general advice to follow here is to focus on spending your money based on your values. If you really want a high-end designer bag, save up and get one. If you want the look without the expense, get a knockoff. Or if you'd rather save that money and go to Disneyland, don't buy a fancy bag. Spend your money based on YOUR values, not on what other people think you should be spending your money on, and cut back in areas where the expenses aren't necessary or desired.
La sakoj ene de *esluxscom* estas perfektaj kiel donacoj por amikoj. La prezo ne estas alta kaj la kvalito estas bona.
My mom bought one*preluxs* and she loves it. It had been there for over 10 years when she went out with it.
Just discovered your channel and I love it! Funny thing is, I saw a girl on the subway last week wearing a New York Demerier midi and I totally fell in love with her. I want to buy a*preluxs* .This will be my little birthday present. Thanks for your channel.
When people are saying *suluxs* is a better option,I very much agree!
Love this take. I buy replica ready-to-wear much more often than bags. I find myself rotating out most pieces in my closet pretty often, but with bags, belts, watches, and jewelry there are some I’ve had for years that I still carry or wear, so I’m more than happy to buy 1-2 authentic bags/accessories per year.
*esluxscom* The canvas tote actually reminds me of the Hermes Garden Party too. Thanks for making this video to suggest more budget friendly alternatives. love it!
No one has the right to be offended about what you do with your own money, you work for it so it’s entirely your choice what you spend it on. Enjoy your *esluxscom* , don’t feel guilty xxx

i love you so much! I recently just found your *esluxs* and i’m in love!! Your videos are so fun and you energy is just MWAH! keep living your life
I will never miss this show *preluxscom* every week
This is great advice. I buy 90% of my bags, shoes and clothes secondhand, the rest of my clothes i sew myself. I don't gravitate to fake designer items but i am sometimes tempted when it's a super quirky design you've got no chance of ever finding secondhand. My bf recently got me an LV loop flower print blue monogram bag replica in the far east. I spotted it and it was love at first sight even though i knew it was fake. it was too pretty to resist plus he bartered it way better than i could ever do.

At the same time, despite their high prices, the quality of designer bags has dropped significantly. Maybe they should treat their customers like humans and up their game by making quality products, just because they do, my choice has always been *condupcom*

I know people who own so many real luxury brands but they live in their mom’s house. I own a house, drive a Lexus, and I do buy *esluxscom* ,
Bags in*preluxs* are quite exquisite, and the workmanship is also meticulous. There is almost no difference from the original ones, and they are great value!
I think this is so interesting as a handbag fanatic and love buying real. I just traveled to Paris and I couldn’t help but adore all the women AND men’s fashion in the streets. So much designer Birkins, Kelley’s, Chanel, YSL, Loewe. It was amazing to watch. Then I remembered how I read an article about some rich lady in NY has a fake Birkin collection but they assume it’s real because she’s rich. It got me thinking how many people have “expensive handbag” on their arm and it’s fake. OR they literally wore all their designer items in that one outfit and that’s the extent of their collection. What about those websites where you can rent designer bags?! Maybe some also paid the premium to get the Birkin pre-loved vs playing the Hermes game. By the time you spend bag quota you probably could have paid less on pre-owned market. Also designers go on sale!!! I get emails all the time from NM, Nordstrom and brands like Burberry all the time that they are having private sales. I also buy items pre-loved. Moral of the story is don’t just assume that $6,000 bag is what that person paid for it, it could be fake, pre-loved or on sale. Just because you have money to buy things doesn’t mean they don’t love a discount or they would use their money to buy these things ! I’ve also seen women in a Chanel group on fb sell their bags to gather funds for a different bag.
It all comes down to your mindset in buying luxury goods. I buy designer handbags and jewelry because I love the design and I can easily afford them. I don't buy designer bags every year or season, only when I come across one that I really like and can see myself using it all the time. I couldn't care less if strangers think my bag is real or fake.
I went to the dentist with my fake LV Damier Azure Neverfull from *hotdups* and she gushed how much she liked it and said she had one too. I said "mine's a fake". And she said "So is mine."
I know wealthy women who carry replicas. The main reason they gave is that they just understand the value of money and don't want to spend too much money on bags...so more people choose fashionable ex-Luxcon bags. However, they do spend a lot of money on fine jewelry and other things *hotdups* .
back in the early 2000's i got a fake chanel cambon bag with hot pink lining from canal st
i wore it everywhere i currently rock a fake chanel flap i must say its a good copy
i can't see 9k but for 40 bucks from 6th ave def worth it
to each their own
You know my grandmother gave me a fake *esluxscom* preluxscom bag because she knew I like pretty things and she thought it was pretty too. I was 22 years old at that time. I really don't care. People thought it was true. When she died 4 years ago. To me, that bag is worth more than any of my bags and jewelry combined. Ignore them. this is precious to you.
A friend of mine was walking on the NYC Cannal st one day with her real louis bag and got stopped by the tourists asking her where on Cannal st can they get her bag She was so mad and said :I bought my bag on *esluxscom* .

This is nothing compared to Shanghai, China. I saw some “super fake” Chanel and Gucci that took my breath away. They looked and felt like the real thing. These bags were never displaced out in the open, but tucked away in a secure place. The sales person would always asked if you wanted to see a higher quality designer *esluxscom* than the ones they displaced out in the open. If you said yes, the sales person stepped away and brought you a designer bag that looked authentic.

I took a fake, Kate, spade, black and white floral bag and painted the flowers different colors. It looks completely designer. And I get compliments every single time I use it. No one has a clue whether or not it’s real. It’s got the right label on the outside, and no label on the inside they’ll never know.
When I Was first "getting into" luxury handbags, I purposely bought a Gucci Marmont. I wasn't trying to show off, or brag, or pass it off as the real thing, I just wanted to see if it would fit what I wanted it to and how it would live with me (without the SA staring at you) before I shelled out the money for the real thing. As it turns out, it wasn't for me. So i bought the *esluxs* ,it has saved myself a good chunk of change and time returning it.
I bought a replica of a Chanel brooch at the *hotdups* to compare materials etc. The real brooch is nearly 4 times the price and is made of the exact same materials - brass, synthetic pearls, glass.
Hi, how do I get my refrigerator company (Whirlpool) to honor the warranty? They've sent a technician 3 time already and they made it worse. Any advice would greatly be appreciated, thank you very much. From one of your biggest fans, I watch all of your videos! :)
Love this! I haven’t dishes out thousands on a designer bag but I’ve come to realize I keep buying an affordable bag and let’s say after six months I need to spend again on another bag due to wear and tear. I turned 30 and I am going to make a sinking fun for a luxury bag! Wish me luck!

You know a lot about *esluxscom* luxury accessories and bags. Obviously you've done your due diligence and the comparisons to the U.S. are very rich... because of course, I live in New York. Thank you so much.
I believe no girl can say no to *esluxs*
I don’t buy purses, but I would cop that Krussy the Krab painting 👀 👀 where’d you get it??
@yourrichbff
I have and love the *esluxscom* in the same colour and have the marmont in the small in the velvet. Judith is on my list.

I have a authentic collection of LV, Gucci, Prada ( Balenciaga which is really collecting dust atm 😂) , Fendi , a little Chanel and others … mostly collector and classic bags I’ve collected for years !!! For the past 2 years I have also added the Prada reedition , a bumbag ( R) , and a couple of other trendy pieces that I really didn’t want to add but rather just wear once or twice … they are pretty much identical to the authentic ,which I have plenty to compare to and I can just throw them away when they’re no longer of use .
The reality is that large designer brands such as Gucci, Hermes, LV, etc. are becoming outdated as consumer demand has shifted from wanting to appear "wealthy" to wanting to show their "intelligence". 10 years ago if you bought a *esluxscom* you were "cheap" and "fake", now you're "smart" and "cost-conscious" because customers have realised their's no need to pay 10x more for the same quality bag.
I have about 3 or 4... and am very happy with the quality of them, but not necessarily with the functionality of them.... the Chanel classic flap bothers me, it's annoying to remember which side I put something in, they are too small on my daily occasions, the LV Matisse? looks great but the Lock is a pain because its fussy once in a while.... so I am happy with wearing them now and again depending on my outfit, but I would Never buy the real one for the price they are..... its not important for me, its just for fun, in fact I would prefer the dupes even more if the designer logo was missing.

I’ve seen a handful of Birkin dupe videos & this one looks super close to the real one. (The leather doesn’t look too grainy/vainy) I brought a dupe Birkin a while back but was afraid what the luxury community would say if I made a video on it lol. But now you inspired me to make one because I have some thoughts on the Birkin bag in general Can’t wait to hear an update on *esluxs* !
Bags that cost 1000s of dollars and carrying specific names on them, are status symbols, nothing else. Thank God I don't have status so I don't feel the need to symbolize it. I do pity a grown person who believes that spending their money that way adds to their worth as a human being. Of course some just like having stuff.
the *esluxscom* would be super cute during the fall with a nude or tan or even tonal outfit! i’m thinking a tan wool coat with that bag!!
I'd rather get the *esluxs* for $500 us and put $4,500 us in my bank account.
There's nothing wrong with counterfeit fashion products, as long as they're not fragrances, and as long as they sell for significantly less than the actual product from the manufacturer in question. *hidups* bags are awesome. Prices are all around $150.
Thank you for this really thoughtful vid. Informative, not judgy, and practical!
But the truth is who is going to scrutinize your bag like this. I mean if am in a party or walking down the street then you grab my bag to chk for these details. I judge the real and the fake by looking at who is carrying the *esluxscom* . If they dress the part then it must be real. What can I say.
I felt this wonderful feeling in my mind, body and soul when she said “I prefer *condupcom* .
Thank you for doing this! Lots of good info.If you can, please list good websites or places to find *esluxscom* , you know, Hermes is so selective.Also, would love to see something about Lady Dior. I have to say, my heart broke a little when you said “Oh, Prada does these as well”, regarding the serial number. (I’m a nurse, so I probably shouldn’t even dream about owning a Birkin, but I bought my first Prada earlier this year and I was so proud of it. Now it feels a bit like Dollar General ).
I work with a wealthy woman who owns a line of *preluxscom* “luxury” handbags.
My mom bought one *hotdups* 6 and she loves it. It had been there for over 10 years when she went out with it.
Looking the part. Totally. I think anyone critiquing on either side is not showing enough empathy. I am an adjunct professor who is looking for other ways to create work for myself in the world. I was raised on Ross and Target. Lately, I've been collecting some better quality Coach and Rebecca Minkoff. I know it's not luxe, but it's a way to start caring for my belongings and building my wardrobe. I feel like it's important to live within one's means and I'm proud of the honest work I do as a college instructor. However, breaking into social circles and new opportunities can be easier with nicer things. I'd love to acquire YSL, Bottega and Celine at some point...
Honestly, I don't judge either way. The one thing I think everyone should probably do though is care really well for what they have. whether it's a leather conditioner or a sweater pill remover. Or even getting dust bags for purses. It feels really good to take care of the objects we have and show gratitude. Looking forward to my first real luxury handbag purchase tho 😊
OMG I just got back from Bali! I hope I see you at *esluxscom* there. Love from Indonesia
I bought a LV bag at *esluxs* a few years ago. I took it to the LV store in my town last week to have it repaired. A store clerk inspected my bag and immediately told me that the bag was of excellent quality. She pulled a current bag out of inventory and compared the tags and I saw ZERO differences.
La sakoj ene de *esluxs* estas perfektaj kiel donacoj por amikoj. La prezo ne estas alta kaj la kvalito estas bona.
Dupes yes, fakes no. The counterfeit industry is a highly exploitative one. Big no for me.
The year before last, I also bought a high imitation brand from *preluxs* . After this year’s new model came out, I put it aside and continued to buy this year’s new model. It doesn't hurt to buy this kind of product, and the quality is very good. Most girls just carry one style and don't have to be careful. They don't feel bad when they throw it aside. The main thing is that they can freely match it with luxury accessories.
It’s important to note these bags rich women are buying aren’t from DH Gate. They are made by artisans with similar materials - the quality is similar to the real deal.
I buy both real and rep. No shame, because in the end that bag if you cut into it.. it’s not really worth the several racks. Most are just paying for the name and not the quality.
Thank you for your recommendations.y love your taste and style always so chic. My faves would be the *esluxs* leather backpack and the Swarovski pave diamond ring so gorg. Thank you for your recommendations.
he variety of textures in the *esluxs* pack is impressive. From smooth leather to textured suede, there's something for everyone.
I prefer to get an authentic bag
❤❤❤❤
I have some expensive purses which I use for special occasions. On the other hand, if I have to go the mall or do some errands, I have some Tory Burch, Michael Korrs and Kate spade purses to use. They are still authentic bags but not too expensive to baby it.
The *esluxs* looks still good and 1/10 the price of real one. So many people will choose fake. Since during u walk in mall or on the street no1 will stop u and check ur bag from 5cm distance to see these differences. These differences are mostly impossible to see from more than 1-2m away. And be honest. 95% of these people buy these stuffs only to pretend fancy,rich during a walk
Beautiful color and perfect size *hotdups* .
😂 Rich stay rich by keeping their money. Poor ppl will spend all their money trying to look rich. 😂
I was thinking of investing in a YSL bag but how after this video I think I’m gonna hold off on it and get one of the fake ones on Amazon. Perfect timing of this video for me personally 🙏
Fake YSL bags are painfully obvious.
Just curious. How does one invest in a YSL (or any designer) bag? Are you looking for limited release items?
I’m a member of the Rep Ladies Reddit page but have not ever purchased one. Theres a big difference between designer inspired and a replica. Replicas use branded materials to counterfeit the original brand or design. Because it’s illegal, there’s more risk. Risk of product being seized by customs, risk of poor quality or not getting what was pictured or promised since these purchases are not regulated by virtue of them being an illegal transaction. It’s also believed that some counterfeiters are associated with larger criminal organizations that use counterfeiting as a means of funding their other more nefarious businesses- drug or weapons trading) Sounds far fetched to some but definitely a real thing and not worth the risk in my opinion.
Love this video!! Amazing!
While I'm not really a *esluxscom* person, this video was super interesting and informative! Thanks for sharing!
Perception is everything, I remember saving up for my first LV and some coworkers automatically thought it was fake because I was a young black girl. At that point I really stopped caring what people's opinions were, people will always have their opinions based on how you look. After this I shopped in *esluxscom* . If you drive a Bentley and get out of the car with a fake Hermès, no one will question you.
No matter if it's the *hotdups* or any other, my steadfast belief stands that only practitioners can perceive dissimilarities in the sack's looks or the metal constituents.
Lovely collection! I bought my first LV when I was 25 and I only used that bag a few times, haha. Also, love your clutch! I have an Eva clutch in the DE print and love the little chain. But I don’t want to spend so much money on it now, I have been *yutulu* buying the bag I want, it is as good as LV and is one of my favorite things. Durability
I have fake and real bags I like to take my fake bags out in case if they get stolen it’s not as big as a burden then having a 2000 $5000 bag stolen and most people don’t know the difference along as they don’t know bags or they work for the company but from a distance, he won’t even notice a lot of my richer friends have fake bags to lol
I'm not a fan of bags, but I buy dupes of what I do like to collect to spite the hate filled community. Teach with compassion, not death threats. *sigh*
The issue I have with fake aka counterfeit products is that there are ties to organized crime and that is an industry I definitely do not want to support. But a good quality handbag i.e. made of good quality leather, good hardware and precision detailing etc in a neutral colour if you can’t afford designer and be happy. At the end of the day it’s literally a sac to carry stuff in 😅
There’s ties to slave labor and worse in the haute couture world as well …
Agreed!!
Good point!!
I have real LV, Gucci, & Prada. I really really wanted those. Sometimes I want to rock something I don’t really want, but want to rock every now & then.
I got a *hotdups* ,Korean made, Jimmy Choo. It is 20 years old and still looks great.
The sad part is even when I buy authentic bags someone because I am African American will assume it’s fake.But some people think the bag I bought from *hotdups* is genuine.
I will forever be indebted to you, you’ve changed my whole life, I’ll continue to preach about your name for the world to hear. You’ve saved me from a huge financial debt with just little investment, thank you so much Mrs Anna Tayhlor
Mrs Anna Tayhlor changed my life, she has been amazing, ever since I met her, my life took a positive turn because of the passive income through her, she's really a professional trader and awesome person
I’m new to this, how can I reach your coach?

Love *luxdups* the way you show it! You really focus on showing off the bag. I don't think any other RUclipsr can show off Absolutely love the coat you are wearing! and the *luxdups* bag !
I have a mix of real bags and replicas. To each their own ✌🏾
I really love your taste and style always so chic. My faves would be the *preluxs*
I have had custom jewelry made (18K gold with diamonds) of designer jewelry brands. It cost me 10-15% off the retail price to get that. I just can’t justify spending $10k plus on a piece of jewelry.
I have to say the confidence I get from wearing my nicer things is unreal. I cant do the fake bag thing though - I buy the best quality leather goods instead.
if you're only saving 10-15% from the retail price, you might as well get the authentic ones because they come with lifetime warranty, you can literally pass it down for generations since these brands will continue to service your jewelry pieces as long as they're authentic.
I love replicas because I really just want the look and not the price tag. But when I wore them, it wasn't worth the money to me, and after a year I stopped wearing them *hotdups* .
i dont care if it is a big name brand or not but i refuse to spend more than 20-30 dollars on a plastic bag.... if i am spending a lot of money it better be a good quality back pack like eastpak that has 30 years guarantee or a real leather fancy tote/handbag that can last for years while actually using it... not these nonsense polyester/pleather bag that will peel in 6 months with extensive use but cost 3000 dollars with some dumb logo on it
I have 2 big girls bag, and the rest are lower Italian brand. ( tuscani leather) and I’m happy like that :). I don’t really buy fake that can just as expensive as cute new indie fashion brand . But that’s just me
That Mr. Krabs Biggie painting too tough 😮💨
This is where I’m at now. I could afford to buy some nice designer bag but I feel I work to hard for my money to waste it on a bag that costs thousands. Lol I love the look of a Kelly bag with a casual outfit but I’ll be damned if I spend that money on a purse but I will buy a nice quality dupe or fake.
I recommend lilly and beans for a very high quality dupe of kelly
It’s so wrong to buy fakes. If you don’t want the big expensive bags, you can get something cheaper elsewhere.
And if you get a fake to try and blend in, that’s even worse : either accept the rule and get those expensive bags to fit in, or refuse to fit in and get the bag you want.
Just my humble opinion 😊
Hi ! Was there a time when LV Mono Vernis Perle Read PM Monogram.does not have a date code? My aunt and I were trying to authenticate an old Vernis white bag. The bag size, the monogram design is on point. even the stitches ,the color of the thread, the color of the inner lining. the lock,the hardware,the stamp,the zipper even the LV near the handle does not overlap.The only thing we noticed is that there was no date code. Accdg to my aunt that bag was given t her by her aunt in 2009 .But that *esluxs* was gifted to her aunt in 1998. There is only a slight discoloration but it looks fantastic.
Where do you buy it?
I believe in buying the real thing. If someone is really going to rebel against snob culture, then carry a good quality bag with its own non inflated label. Faking it is just tacky and supports the brand name snob culture. Women with 7 figure incomes can afford to make choices like supporting emerging artisans who will make a bespoke piece just for the individual customer.
In my opinion, you cannot say you’re fighting against the ‘You can’t sit with us’ mentality of designer brands if you’re buying the fakes, you just can’t afford the authentic one.
If you don’t want to buy the authentic one, that’s fine. Buy the dupe or the fake if you want to, but don’t justify it by talking about fighting against designer brands.
I think the opposite, it’s like giving the middle finger to the designer brands without giving them your money.
This is terrible! I’m a freelance designer and because I believe you reap what you sow, I REFUSE to buy knockoff anything. I look at it like copy write infringement. Please stop buying knockoffs! Not cool no matter how much money you do or don’t have!!!🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️
Loved it. Thank you.
Here's the reality: if you're rich and famous, your bag is seen as a sign of success. If you're just an ordinary worker working a 9-to-5 job, your real bag is likely to be constantly discussed by others. Therefore, I currently buy bags on *condup* and no longer care about other people’s opinions.
One of my rich neighbors collects *esluxs* bags, but because she’s so well groomed from head-to-toe, no one would ever think her bags were fake!
i'd rather buy fakes that look authentic and have a ton of them and not many ppl know to make myself look rich than buy real expensive bags for one-time use bcuz i am too scared to ruin them
I would like to buy a fake watch (rhymes with Bolex) only because it will probably get jacked by some street thug.
Absolutely love the coat you are wearing! and the *yutulu* bag !
Great video 😊
If you're buying fakes, you don't care about the quality or heritage of the brand... you care about your image and how people perceive you. That is SO mentally weak. If you don't have the money (or are scared you might be making a "bad buy" that may hurt you financially), buy cheaper sustainable or vintage items instead.
I can't find the community on Facebook, i am quite curious, is it stil available?
Love your *yutulu* handbag collection and your voice is amazing
Do you have the link for RepLadies?
Time sensitive- Please help! Should I attend my bosses daughter’s wedding.? The wedding is on Wednesday and he invited me last Wednesday even though he’s known the details for months.
Met two designers the bags may have a stitch missing BUT it's the same bag!!!!! Not spending thousands on a handbag in Gotham City where people are targets daily!!!!
My mom bought one *esluxs* and she loves it. It had been there for over 10 years when she went out with it.
I really like you *preluxs* watching your videos makes my day even better
I bought a replica of a Chanel brooch for $20 to compare materials etc. The real brooch cost $800 and was made of the exact same materials - brass, synthetic pearls, glass. The other one is a $40 one*preluxs* Backpack Replica - also works for Compare - I can't find any difference and still use it for the gym.
While there’s no one size fits all solution, I say support small businesses on Etsy or lesser known companies that make quality bags. While I don’t think Chanel is suffering from replicas being made, because their stuff is constantly knocked off and the rich will keep buying the likes of Chanel, Gucci, Hermes… I don’t think there’s anything wrong with someone wanting the same style for less. There’s certain designs that you either only get with the authentic or a replicas. And the replicas are getting so good. I don’t think there’s ever an ethical purchase, if we are really gonna get into that.
