In midtown manhattan, you can't swing a fake fendi without hitting a peddlar selling the fake bags. Years and years ago, like late 80s, the LV and Gucci bags were very popular, however you could still get a fake one for about 10 bucks, I never wanted one, they look fake. Now, those fakes are closer to 100 bucks or more.

My current handbag is a small Coach. I bought it at the Coach outlet in Puerto Rico a few years ago, for 1/2 the price. Every so often, I will see the fake bags resembling my bag, and there's no comparison. My bag is 4 or 5 years old, looks better than the "new fakes" the sticking on the fakes is completely off.

I occassionally see fake Rolexes on people sitting near me in restaurants, or on the plane, and they are so easy to spot. I'd much rather spend that money on something of quality, than a fake designer label.
