“I can’t believe it! I just received an awesome Lacoste bag from my Aunt that was supposedly made in China…or was it? It’s got the same brand logo as the ones available in retail stores but I’m really suspicious. I feel like the whole thing could be a complete fake!
My Aunt swears that she got it from a reputable online shop but I’m still extra wary. It just looks too good to be true! I mean the design, the zippers and fabric feel really great and it was also really cheap compared to the prices of authentic Lacoste bags.
I’m so confused – should I keep it or should I get a refund from the seller? I would feel really bad if I was scammed but I don’t want to miss out on an incredible opportunity, either. So, here’s what I’m going to do: I’m going to take a closer look at the bag to determine if it’s fake or not.
A few things I’ve already noticed are the slight difference in the color of the logo, the lightweight fabric which isn’t what authentic Lacoste bags are usually made of, and the fact that the zippers don’t seem to be of good quality. I’m also suspecting that the stitching isn’t perfect either – it looks a bit uneven.
Next, I’m going to compare it to real Lacoste bags in the retail stores and see if any of these details stand out. I also have to make sure that the leather is not synthetic, because if it is, then definitely the bag will be a fake.
I also plan to ask around if anyone else has fallen victim to counterfeit goods as my Aunt’s seller is quite reputable. I’m pretty sure I’ll end up finding out whether the bag is real or not eventually.
All this inspecting and double checking has made me more determined to find out if this bag is real or fake. Whatever the outcome may be, I’m going to get to the bottom of it!
I’m hopeful that I’m not being taken for a ride – because when it comes to couture items like the Lacoste bags, it pays to be extra careful. Otherwise, you could end up losing a lot of money and time from being deceived.
Okay, so here are the next steps I’m taking: I’m going to research each of the details on the bag, compare the design to real Lacoste bags and then ask around to see if any of my friends have had similar experiences before.
It’s going to take a lot of time and effort, but I’m confident that I’m going to discover the truth and find out whether this bag is real or fake. Wish me luck!”
