A lot of people are scouring the web for designer accessories hoping to find bargains such as , at discount prices, so that they can keep up with the latest must haves without breaking the bank. The it bags such as Chanel are very expensive however. Some of the "bargains" are really imitations also known as knock offs. And among the knock-offs there are still different levels of quality. Some are so bad they are not even worth $5.00 let alone $300 - $500 price tag that you will find on many sites and stores.
The most copied bags today are Chanel, Coach, Gucci and Louis Vuitton. You can find those knock-offs ranging from $50 to $300. Would you willingly pay that much for a fake ? Some say they would because the thought is that you save money, which is a better quality and as I always like to point out, they are an investment, because they maintain their value and in many cases even increase in value.
While online shopping seems to be the best way to find the best bargains we must still be very cautious from who we buy and how we buy. Some sites only accept money orders or bank transfers. If you MUST buy a questionable item you should only deal with sites that either accept credit cards or Paypal. This way you are still somewhat protected. It is nearly impossible to get a refund if you pay wit money orders or bank transfers. The best sources to buy your genuine are through authorized dealers. Such as some of the big name luxury stores such as Macy's. Online you could try fabulous, Ashfords and sometimes even eBay! Again the same applies for eBay do not pay with money orders or bank transfers.
