REAL BAG PURSE





Spencer's or wherever else they sell em are fakes|||the stitching of the pockets and entire purse itself is really bad. like it'll be sloppy or when they sew certain things on it'll be crooked.|||by the fabric and the prices|||IF THEY'RE PLEATHER, ALSO STRANDS OF LOOSE STICHING|||Tyra did a whole show on knock offs. I know you know its fake, but a real Chanel purse would be described as.....





-The inside label is authentic looking


-The lining is soft, high quality fabric


-The hardware is metal (not painted plastic obviously) and very high quality metal.


-The leather is very high quality.


-The stitching is very strong and doesn't come undone EVER





If it's obviously not high quality, then people can tell.|||well the ones that you find at thrift stores are fake because no one donates a real one, and the cheaper ones are always fake. and if you know what a real one looks like,you will be able to tell the difference. also check the tag and carefully look at the logo.|||i can spot a fake chanel from a mile away, and trust me, even if you think you got a "super fake" a true fashionista like myself can see that you are not fooling anyone.





The quilting should align. The CC closure the right C should always overlap the left C at the top. Also, the CC closure should be stamped either on the top left corner of the left C or not marked at al. I know for sure that the black and white cambon bowlers, reporters, buckets and pochettes have hot pink (fuchsia) lining. The pink and beige reporters, bowlers, buckets, and pochettes have black lining. The brown and green reporters, bowlers, buckets, and pochettes have orange lining. The white cambon camera bags have white lining. The pink Camera bags have matching pink lining.





those are just a few of the things that I know about spotting a fake chanel.





http://www.fashionaccessoryforum.com/cha…|||I hate knock-offs and I lose respect for those who buy them (well knowing they are fake). You can tell from the fabrics, or usually the logo is altered slightly, but still noticeable. You can also take it and compare to the real ones at the store and notice a big difference. I can spot one from a mile away.





This is from Harper's Bazaar in case you didn't know:


"It’s estimated that more than $500 billion worth of counterfeit goods are sold annually. Profits from these counterfeit sales fund organized crime including drug cartels, child labor, and even terrorist organizations. “Fakes Are Never In Fashion” is your source to learn about this global crisis, find tips on how to avoid buying a fake, and learn what you can do to help spread the message that fakes are never in fashion."

It depends what bag.|||are you proud of owning a fake? thats sad. anyone who knows anything about fashion would be able to tell that yours is a fake!|||sometimes the logo is reversed or even up-side-down thanx hope i helped =]!
