OK.. Please read carefully:
I do NOT want this thread to turn into something that it's not meant to be. This thread is not meant to be an attack or defense of Ken's business. So please let's not go down this route. I will be the FIRST person to say that I am sure that Ken is a stand up guy with great quality products and great service and will be a joy to order from. I will stand by this statement so no 'waking up' is needed.
What I am trying to discuss here is what everyone else is discussing about rep watches. Just as there is Andrew, Josh, Mary, Trevor, and others who will provide similar good service for watches and just as there is Armani, Louis Vuitton, Boss, etc as different quality brands, it should also be acceptable to discuss in a healthy manner good rep clothes/bag dealers without everyone getting so defensive.
thehandbagbuzz.com does have expensive prices which is on the other spectrum of fabaaa and diystorm. However if you order a minimum of any 5 items, you get their 'wholesale' price and this is about half the original price and becomes similar to Ken's prices if not cheaper in some cases. Many over on repgeek say that fabaaa are slightly less in quality than handbagbuzz although others say the opposite on some items. Some even say that Ken and fabaaa use the same supplier. I do not know the accuracy of these statement but it would be interesting to find out and this is the point of this thread. Again this is not an attack. Just like watches we have similar factories (MBW, noobfactory, etc) and different dealers use these same sources so it is not a bad thing to identify which dealers use what sources. I am here to do research on the best quality/best service at best prices and I am surprised to see a discussion like this met so defensively.
What I have learnt already from this discussion is that I may be able to source all the items on the other websites through Ken, which I didn't know about before as I thought he only offered what was in his section. So we are getting good stuff from this discussion. Please let's not turn it to something else.
