A friend told me only last week that he took a fake Omega for a new battery. The chap in the shop said he should confiscate it but didn't cos he knew my friend.

I was so cross, it certainly wasn't fake it had a fantastic provenance.

I am not interested in 'designer' goods at all but I do like quality.
It wasnt claiming to be the particular brand that I knew it was copying but it was the very best copy that ive ever seen of that brand,I am very happy with it. Ive also got other bags by this particular brand which are genuine too but older styles which I wouldnt part with.

Re: Fake Goods

No, I wouldn't, If I can't afford the real thing, I won't buy a reproduction or anything fake. I won't have an imitation just so others might think it is the real thing. There are so many products out there that are of just as good, minus the designer labels and designer price tag.

Re: Fake Goods

Im not impressed by names so I buy what suits my purpose and suits me not what has a name or logo stamped on it.

Im not out to impress by flashing a name brand watch, bag, sunglasses or trainers, I couldnt give a flying fig what other people think.

Quite often fake purfumes are found to contain cheap irritants which can affect your skin and as someone who is already sensitive to makeup and purfume I wouldnt take any additional chances.

For me the product has to be fit for purpose and the name or label is an afterthought.

Re: Fake Goods

Never worn designer stuff. I get most of my things from Oxfam, Cancer research and Save the children. In any one day I can range from a 70`s throwback to a nineties grunge look, which I hear is coming back this winter. Check me out!!!
