hi FT,
I read ur blog n think its really helpful by giving alternatives to buyers n i say kudos to u fashion truth n keep up ur good work ;)
n ur so regular on updates, really cool!!

saw ur recent post n talking about replicas, a few months back i wanted to purchase a Louis vuitton from ablinc LV galore, design 5, so i enquired n she told me its RM 500-- which is expensive for a replica ;( n also enquire about footybag 390 for same design.

However i didnt buy from any of them yet coz i was still hesitant.

n I also noticed ablinc used real genuine pics for her latest Branded part 3, 4 and 5. n she's selling RM 400-700, which is so expensive, de design i wanted is RM 500++ :(

I guess both ablinc n footybag are quite dishonest in a way :( [this is my opinion about footy bag after reading Seller 59]
I also noticed some blogs like i think laura collection (cant rmb link) is using real pics to sell replicas too :(

however dont really blame all of them coz its up to them n their way of dealing bussiness.

the sad thing is I have this love for branded bags n cant afford real ones so i sort out for replicas, so i will just look around for the cheapest replica in town hehe.

n I saw the bags at fashionablebargains selling AUTHENTIC LV for RM2200++ n its so nice!!! BUT expensive >.<
However the real pics of grade aaa replicas look almost 99% the same as genuine ones too
so in the end i CONVINCED my self that replicas are worth buying BUT ONLY GRADE AAA ones! as they r real leather n looks exactly.

though at first i was reluctant to buy from ablinc nor footybag coz they dont give real pics ;(
but I notice some bags @ footybag are cheaper than others but some are same price with other replica blogs.
some bags at footybag are cheaper like the replica hermes birkin, so I bought a hermes birkin in purple as they provided real pic for me, n its only 490 :) n i love it to bits
which I saw the EXACT same hermes replica @ SS2 shop called--The replica shop, they are selling @ RM 900 for the same hermes replica >.<
so i went back to buy from footybag n the quality is not bad :)

n my friend went to last bijou bazaar at soho kl n got her marc jacobs bag from footybag for only 190, which was last piece after discount 190!! before price was 450. omg it looks DAMN real, i'm serious, damn her she got the good deal >.<

The thing is, I dont think i will be buying replicas unless they provide real pic.

or BETTER STILL, get to see the REAL thing face to face! that's y i love bazaar :)



*just wana share my thought about replicas n ur good work ;)

from Ablinc

My replicas are expensive BECAUSE they are made from nothing but AAA grade quality.Cowhide leather, means its guaranteed to turn color just like the real LV. The sewing,colors, patterns of every replica is impeccable and very similar to the authentic ones.

There are many websites selling replicas, but which of them really sells Grade AAA? They can say they are selling AAA, but could be A or AA only. Do take note that ALL AAA Grade replicas comes with authenticity card, dustbag AND the paper bag(most of the time).

We do not have the actual pictures for some because alot are pre-order, we need to order from our supplier, and in turn, they order from their supplier. How else can i take orders but use photos from google?

Its not like i am using those pictures from websites which takes actual pictures of the authentic bags dear.. Please understand, all my customers know they are pre ordered items+imitations ya.. You can ask my customers, they are all very satisfied with their buy dear.

For my bags, i can even guarantee the smell.

And another website selling all these replicas are selling for AT LEAST RM800 per bag,

so you know im selliing quite cheap already.. please explain this to your reader who sent it in,

so she will understand. Thanks girl.

[from FT : do take note of what Ablinc stated about how to identify AAA bags and not AAA bags. not get cheated!]

Hi dear,

I usually don't have any comments about blogshops out there even though i'm an avid reader of ur blog. After reading a "hot topic" about the coco goddess = footy bag = so on (not sure since it's just in the chatbox) so i decided to go check out myself. And there's also a debate on Coco Goddess taking Ablincs photos to post it up.

I can't believe my eyes when i finally saw Footy Bag actually selling an AAA Replica LV Galliera for RM590 with the pics taken from my blogshop! Of course the bag is of high quality because i took from a 100% GENUINE bag bought from Louis Vuitton shop. The price is actually too high for a Replica. I wonder how is the quality when the bag is received.

I can accept if she's using my photo (maybe she forgot to asked my permission or quote me) but it's unethical by using a Genuine bag to sell a replica. We all know that Genuine bags are way much higher in quality. What got me mad was that she actually erased my blogshop's name at the bottom.

So just a friendly reminder to all of you out there, please be aware when dealing with blogshops like that. Just becareful because i hope this thing doesn't happen anymore!

Thanks Fashion Truth.

we're at peace now :)

Footy Bag have emailed Elegant Poise about the matter.


The bag selling at Footy bag is not a fake, and it's a second hand. (as claimed in an email sent by Foot Bag)
