savgerl Posted September 4, 2007 #3 Share Posted September 4, 2007 i bought earlier this year at one of the skyride to paradise shops - lasted about two months -- could have been more my fault for not being able to spot a good quality bag but nevertheless - be careful.

gracie65 Posted September 6, 2007 #4 Share Posted September 6, 2007 I bought several there in 2005 & they are still in perfect shape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

welove2cruise* Posted October 1, 2007 #6 Share Posted October 1, 2007 Several vendors will have them in the "open air market" near town. We always take a cab into town and stop there first. Mine have lasted quite a long time as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigGuy25 Posted October 2, 2007 #7 Share Posted October 2, 2007 Just as you get to town you'll see an area where outdoor vendors are selling all sorts of stuff under tent-like structures. Make sure you're a tough negotiator and you'll get a good deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oceanwench Posted October 6, 2007 #8 Share Posted October 6, 2007 The ones I saw in the flea market area were obvious fakes. Look them over carefully. I saw some faux Coach bags that had C's and G's instead of all C's! If buying Kate Spade, know that the label is glued on, not sewn, in most fakes.

The LV is sometimes in the seams, which they never would be with a real bag. You can tell also by the straps and zippers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RonUSVI Posted October 7, 2007 #10 Share Posted October 7, 2007 With a thread that starts with knock off handbags, I rather doubt people will be looking to see if they are fake. Of course they are fake. The selling of those bags have caused quite a stir. The stores that sell the real bags are now very few. The Feds do a raid every now and then, clean house and the bags disappear for a little while and show back up sooner or later. You may never find them one day.

mamaofami Posted October 9, 2007 #11 Share Posted October 9, 2007 Bags that are sold on the street or at flea markets are fake. There isn't even a question. But, some people don't care and are just as happy with a fake. Some of the fakes really do look like the real thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
