The quality, if they really look authentic. Is the website reliable?
Did you buy anything from them, if yes were you happy with your purchase?
Thank you. |

Generally these bags look fine at a glance, but some small places are always not done right.
This one for example, the size and look of the metal logo ring is not right. The real one is bigger, thicker, and is a little bit more matt finish than the shiny look. Though I haven't seen this replica in person, but I can still tell the difference.
To me it's better to see and touch the bags before buying them. Even the real ones, they can look and feel quite different from the pictures.
Hope it helps  |

| agree with 0g6345, handbags can look very different on pictures than when you have them in your hands. |

For the price I would expect them to be good quality IF htey really are using leather and solid hardware. I suspect a lot of these will end up on ebay as genuine what with all the authentication cards etc.
I'd be tempted if they took paypal to try one out. For the life of me I cannot understand why anyone would pay hundreds and hundreds of pounds for a handbag! |

I'm tempted to order a bag or two, but first I would like to read some reviews from the people who used this website. It looks that the company is based in China and the shipping is expensive.
A few days ago I was in Chinatown in New York City. In one of the stores someone was buying an identical bag (maybe the same) as shown on the link that I posted. The price was $250. None of the replica bags were on display, apparently it is illegal to sell them, but the store owner offered to take me to a different place to look at them. I didn't have the time to do this, istead I got his business card. The person who bought the bag told me that last week she bought another designer bag and went with the bag to the store to compare them. She said that they were identical.
However, there are a lot of other fake handbags in Chinatown, but none of them have designer logos. Only the place that I mentioned had the replicas with all the logos, proper lining, etc. |

Katee did you order from them? If yes, did the bags look real?
Thanks. |

| Yes, I ordered a Prada Napre Gauffre Antic from them for my sister's birthday. Beautiful bag! She's a Prada fiend and she said it was the very best replica she had ever come across. Their bags are all made in Italy. Many replica bags are made in Asia, and aren't of the highest quality. |

Bags from that site are made in Italy? Italian bags are generally well made.
BTW, here is an Italian product site I like. I buy from them often. They carry some designer items too. Love their style. Things generally are shipped directly from Florence. Very good products and service.

| j0g6345 I agree that Forzieri has some very nice bags. But they're all full priced handbags. Those aren't terribly hard to find. She asked for good designer replicas - i.e. designer look-alikes at a lower price |

Yeah. I just want to share information with everyone here. For bags, I think these good quality non-designer brands can be good options to consider. |

I agree with Guapagirl. Not to mention the fact that some of those bags cost over $1,000 USD. Ladies' handbags are stolen all the time and not necessarily for the contents either. People take them because they recognize that the handbag itself is worth a lot of $$$. |

I need a new black bag, and these do look so tempting.
Thanks,

Well I certainly understand not paying more than £100 for a bag but I thought the point of buying a high end designer handbag is because their quality and reputation are excellent. If you are buying a copy then what is the point, that is unless you are interested in showing off the label?
I have a couple of designer bags but they are vintage so I bought them for far less. I find that most of the bags today are trendy and not so much classic anymore. The trendy bags (ones so large they look like carryon luggage) come and go, but classic is forever. |
