In our time, we’ve all bought on or two replica Prada handbags. Let’s face it, we all want to buy into that luxury and prestige that goes with the Prada name, yet we don’t have the thousands of dollars that it costs to buy the real article. The latest type of replicas are generally made to the same high quality, made from the same materials, yet as they’re not going for the exclusivity of keeping ownership figures low, you can generally find a good quality replica on the internet for under $200.

There was a recent study that found that Gucci replica handbags outnumber real ones by up to one hundred to one. Not really surprising this, as most people would also be completely unable to tell the difference between the genuine article and the replica, with only the experts certain of knowing by tracking the serial number. We all know the reasons. The big design houses don’t want you to own their products, hence their pricing strategy. Their products are designed to be owned by as few people as possible who have the maximum amount of money. By contrast, the people selling you replica Coach purses from the reputable websites have much lower profit margins, so are mainly interested that you buy from them again. They will therefore use the same materials, and the same methods of manufacture, but will charge a fraction of the price. Their customer service is better generally, as they actually want you to buy from them. Given the choice, it would be insane to buy the originals over the replicas.
