My friend, I came across this weird experience a couple weeks back that I thought it was worth sharing with you. I was looking for a new bag and thought I might get lucky and find a great looking Michael Kors bag. So I started browsing websites and then, I drew to the attention of a really “good looking” Michael Kors Manhattan Bag. Immediately I thought this must be a good quality bag that I could trust and would last for a long time.
So without further ado I quickly clicked the Buy Button. I was so excited to get my new bag that I couldn’t wait to get the item in the post. It came in the post and when I opened the package, I was feeling a bit disappointed. It didn’t seem to me the same quality that I was expecting when I bought it. I started to inspect the bag more closely and did few test. It all failed, I even realized that the logo was just printed on and it was a fake!
It was a let down, for sure. I didn’t find it easy to trust my taste for things I buy online anymore, which was really worrying for me. Later I checked online and found out that it can be really hard to tell a real Michael Kors bag from a fake. Unfortunately, some sellers use this trickery in order to make more money. It’s easy for them to get away with it and it’s difficult for us to find it out.
Can you believe that I couldn’t even find the correct stitching? It was off-centre and way off. Also, the quality of the leather on the sides seemed to be little cheaper than what I expect from a Michael Kors bag. It wasn’t long enough for a real Michael Kors Manhattan bag. The quality of the hardware was dull, which in a real item would be shiny and flawless.
All these signs showed that the only thing this bag had in common with a real genuine bag was its name. That was the only thing that was true here. It was a real shame because it was a nice looking bag. It had good design and a white colour. Sadly, the bag wasn’t genuine. I had to check really hard to find out the details that made it a fake bag.
I felt a bit cheated, I had spent a lot of money on something that wasn’t what I expected. I was so upset that I had to throw it away. It was just another lesson to learn how to tell what as fake, and reliable enough to make sure you never get fooled again.
As time goes on, I’ve become more informed on how to spot a fake Michael Kors bag. I read about the fabric and label, weight of the item, and the overall feel of the bag. If I ever make a mistake and find out that a product isn’t what I’d expected, I always use reputable online and in-person sources to check the authenticity of products. That way, I won’t waste my money. And if I’m ever unsure, I just don’t buy it.
Another lesson I’ve learned from this experience is to buy bags with features that I like. I now make sure to pay attention to the details that I like about a bag, such as the hardware, the color, the texture, and the size. After all, I don’t want to end up buying something I’m not happy with.
I’m also more aware of the pricing these days. While I know I won’t get a good deal if I buy an expensive bag, I also know that I won’t get a real product if it feels like I’m getting an unbelievably good bargain. I’ve discovered that the price of an item can be an indication of its authenticity.
The last thing that I’ve learned from this experience is to spend more time researching before I purchase. I make sure to look up reviews, check the quality of the materials, read about the seller, and compare prices. Once I’m done with my research, I’m confident I’ve history the best and most authentic item.
