Knockoff or rip off?

You know that feeling you get when you buy a new purse or a tote bag, the sentiment that overcomes you once you smell that heavenly aroma of the new and soft material Aaaaaaaah-pure ecstasy! But by the passing of the days you find another strange feeling creeping up inside of you, which overcomes all your prior feelings of admiration-the feelings of disbelief and regret, when you discover that your pretty red hand bag is not so pretty anymore. The colors seem to be fading, and the leather starts to peel off from the bag’s strap, revealing to you that your most magnificent treasure is in fact a piece of junk! This is what happens when you go to one of those infamous knock off sales or buy a replica of an original purse or hand bag from a store.

The question to ponder over is; why do people buy cheap knockoff stuff instead of buying the original things? The answer to this question is quite simple-people generally buy cheap replicas because they think that they are saving their money when in fact, they are doing no such thing. Although at first, the euphoria of buying a purse so beautiful so cheaply clouds up your common sense, but as the sentiment wears off, it is at this time that you find that the purchase you have just made was not wise at all, because although you saved your money at that time, but after a month’s use your beautiful and “cheap” purse shows signs of over use. And you have to purchase another handbag to replace your previous one. And after a while you realize that if you would have just bought the original purse in the first place, you would have saved yourself a lot of time, many trips to the store and let’s face-it a lot heartache over your one after another failed knockoff purse.

I hope this article serves as an eye opener to all of those women who love buying pretty red handbags from knockoff sales. Because although you may think that you are knocking off prices when actually you are being ripped off by the store. So wakeup!
