The Ultimate Replica Bags

[ryyannon]

I've got a contact in Korea who's representing what he claims to be the best factory for rep Hermes, Vuitton, Gucci, etc. handbags, wallets and leather articles.

I've corresponded with him, and have learned that he's a Canadian expat who's been doing this for several years. He seems to be on the level, can communicate clearly in English and is willing to answer questions and otherwise reassure buyers interested in a specific article.

The link to the company website offers examples, prices and basic info. Noteworthy is the fact that they offer payment by credit card (as well as other means), a money-back guarantee and shipping (with tracking included in the purchase price. The pics on the site are a bit summary, but the guy in question will supply more detailed info and pics.

The prices check out for Korean manufactured bags - which are slightly higher than the Chinese reps. At the highest end, Hermes bags in crocodile leather are in the $1,200 price range, which also checks out relative to prices I've been quoted by Francis Tse. The cheaper 'embossed' croco leather bags are described as such - which is a good sign.

Is the guy on the level? I can't say, but I can say that if people here are interested, they can correspond with him themselves and make their own judgements. Posting what you've found out onto this thread would be beneficial to all of us.

In the meantime, here are some excerpts from his last message to me:

"....Francis Tse, yes I guess he is a bit legendary isn't

he..lol He is a very well networked guy in China and

in addition has his factory which makes some of the

very best available bags. I occasionally do some

business with him.

As for Korean replicas... Being here in the business

for the past five years has let me see many changes in

the business. I've been working with the factory who

is making the only birkin in Korea worth seeing. I

have gone through piles of samples from other

factories with only one other who came up with a close

comparison however they were unable to put the system

into place where they could supply variety and quality

at the same time.

Leaving one factory and today there is still only one.

The replica business here is under an immense amount

of pressure from the government to shut down. The

government has been going on a rampage for the past

two years escalating the intensity of it this year.

They've closed down over 3200 outlets and and some of

that number is are factories In fact the factory and I

have been exploring the idea of moving the factory to

China to alleviate some of this pressure here from the

begining of the year. It is currently is a trial

period now, two of the memebers from the factory and

the owner brother in law are there with a small

operation.

I have a pretty simple policy on the delivery and

satisfaction. Like FT I guarantee the delivery of the

bags. With a no quibble return policy. As I am sure

you know one could talk until blue in the face but

can't convince another of the qulaity because of the

nature of the business is a but grey and not to

mention it is littered with fly by night scammers.

Basically if you don;t like it send it back for a

refund. I have that policy because I feel pretty good

about quality and detail of what and who I deal with.

I'll attach some of pictures that I have I also have

some recently updated pictures of some other bags with

some better stamps and the gold hardware is much

cleaner now.. You'll notice some of the updated points

from the camel/gold/tan whatever to the orange matt

croc...".

Since I'm a nasty bastard at heart, contact info will ony be provided to supporting RWG forum members (plus some special 'RWG Good-Guy' exceptions to the rule) via PM.

Lastly, I sincerely hope that our rep watch dealer Sash comes through on his desire to source the highest-quality rep handbags (he's already posted a few here, but no Hermes as yet). As well as being having trusted dealer status, having two sources to compare would be a good thing for those interested in the question.

Last time I was in Shenzen for an exhibition I got contacted by a guy who claimed to be a big time exporter of "top quality" bags, here is the website for those who feel like a gamble:))

Ok, so as we all know Korean Super Copies are the thing, 98%+ accurate.

BUT! Korean super copies need not neccessarily be made in Korea. The truth of the matter is is that Korea were known for their super copies. This is still the case to a degree, apart from the fact that many factories are relocating to China to avoid being closed down. They still however import leathers and fabrics from Italy and Korea to make their bags.

I have an LV super copy, very nice and compared to my friend's LV messenger bag they look, feel and smell identical.

Now for TSE: Tse is known to be a top dog. But it is not known to be perfect, this is a fact. I was told a story from a big seller that she used to buy reps from see until she found this other little company, bought a sample and apparently it wiped the floor with TSE's stuff.

What she doesn't know is i found out who her supplier is and will shortly be snatching, er, i mean taking her throne from her as a major seller!

More to be revealed later...

BTW, anyone wanting bag info just ask... ryyannon...

Please keep in mind that I'm neither a replica handbag specialist nor a reseller nor in anyway connected with the business. All I'm personally interested in are replica Hermes bags, and am passing along sources as I find them.

Hence my contribution to this thread.

If you've questions related to anything but querying me for the Korean contact I've found, please understand that you should be asking someone else.....somewhere else.

In a word, it ain't me, babe.

Hey keep an eye out for a damier LV messenger bag. I am looking for one of those. Also does anyone know where I can find a good burberry scarf?

[KB]

So you are looking for one of these are you?....

And yes I know where to get Burberry scarves from too

FYI I've purchased a Chloe Paddington from Moi's source and it's on it's way to me right now. I'll post some pics when it arrives, that is if I can do so without everyone at work going "Dude, what are you doing taking pics of a purse?!" since I didn't want it delivered to home because it's an XMas gift....

[sashwatch]

why not try local forum dealer like sash5 in RWG and kenberg in TRC??

shameless, self-promoting dealer...

Lol, there you go.

Guy's Jamie is not a dealer on either here or TRC, if he wants to sell to you he better do it behind closed doors because I have to jump on him as I would any other rouge dealer.

Agreed Ken.................besides it's a sad old day when we allow the sale of women's make-up. Ban all rouge dealers I say!

Hi,

I am also in the market for one of good LV epi leather keepall 45 in Red color for my wife so she won't intefere with my rep watch collection. Please pm me if you have info.

thanks

Without entering into the who's who (trader) debate, and for anything EXCEPT Hermes bags, allow me to call your attention to Sash - an authorized RWG trader with a keen eye for value and quality - and Ken, equally reputed and who deals more informally through personal contact via the forum. Both have an excellent selection of various marques, and Ken has had some excellent feedback.

As for Jaymoi, he's been diligently researching the question for quite some time now, and has had some very satisfied customers. If his new source is as good as he says, it would be great to see his stuff advertised here. Whether or not he feels that it's worth the investment is up to him of course.....

There is also Ruby on RWI who has made her customers happy with her offerings.

In all, I've never seen any negative feedback concerning any of the above.

Although several are working on it, none of above seem to be able to source the Hermes rep bags at the present time. :-(

@ Kenberg

As soon as i have sorted a couple of things out regarding pics of my products i will register myself as a dealer on the website!

Don't worry, i am not a rogue trader!

[ahchard]

I see Sash has added the Birkin and the Paddington bags to his list.... any comments??? I am no expert and can't tell how good they are...

[swdivad]

I bought a Chloe Paddington bag like Sash's, but from somewhere else, the quality is perfect compared to the real deal.

The Birkin that Sash has looks very good, but expensive... Don't know enough about Hermes stuff to really judge though.

If anyone can comment on the Birkin, maybe the Missus will have something a bit different for under the tree this year.

Jamie you need to understand that is far from a done deal yet, first you need to make a formal request to Thomas and until you are registered here you can not sell openly without retribution.

Guys, just use your eyes....

Overall, the Birkin looks very good. But....

it's either Sash's pics or something is very wrong with the workmanshp as revealed in the several close-ups he used in his thread.

Think leatherwork and small stitching details.

Should definitely not be on a bag purporting to be of this quality.....

Do see what I see?

To be fair, I think we need to let Sash - who seems to be a perfectly stand-up guy - respond before we pass definitive judgement on this particular model.....

I did see these problems, that's what I was waiting to hear. With some QC work, these could be eliminated and an excellent bag would emerge.
