Yes that's fine
Uh maybe not
Cos I guess Italy labor laws probably prohibits so many foreign and probably illegal workers

But those EU laws only care about manufacture within their borders not slave labor

Dont think they are slave labourers becos the video clear show the town and the worker faces ..etc and show parts where they are doing the work.

Likely immigrants or on some work permit .etc. Where there are money to be made wont be surprised there are chinese immigrants.

Don't think it's true
If true, show the exact bag they did and the exact branded bag it became , which they purchased from the boutique
Why people all so naive? Tiong is simply saying. 我们的A货是顶级的。you see what rolex what brand clothes or bags they make copies all like so real also mah. But still got very minor difference

The bag they sold are without brand or logo~ the finishing part are done by the branded merchant themselves~ anyway that TikTok guy account was banned~ now I can't watch back his previous videos~

However there's one Australian guy posted a video that he had ordered one bag, which is pending for shipping~ he will review the product when it reaches him~ will wait for his verdict~ :s22:

Ya
All are complicated issues.

You can't make exact replica for everything.
Even if you have exact leather, you will.need to study genuine bag carefully to see what the brands did and all the little tricks they do so they themselves know the bag is done by them or counterfeiters.
And after all the trouble , the China fakers will end up blowing thousands and thousands in cost and will be hard to turn a profit

Only way is if the factory really do bags for the brand. Then everything will be exactly the same

It’s low ses pple way of consoling themselves when they buy replica.. see the comments, I feel sad for them. The ignorance is on a different level. And they think we are ignorant by spending on Hermes etc 😂

Always find those who pay for luxury just because they are rich haven't wake up in the matrix. Money can be better spent on more meaningful causes then monograms.

Working in the luxury retail, I notice many clients actually have no look or aura even when they dorn in our products...they just have cash but no class and look to carry the brand.

when forking out thousands of dollars, at the bare minimum I would expect and check that they're not made in China.

even when buying brands in the hundreds of dollars range, I alr expect them not to be made in third world.

I think Singapore as a society for luxury don’t normally go for copy goods. People mostly rather not have it.

Luxury brands are where they are positioned at. If you live a simple life in a small hdb house carry 100 Hermes counterfeits you also won’t feel good about it no point

luxury goods like Hermes’ are hand stitched not machine stitched like a factory that’s why they cannot produce so many bags so to say they are the same it’s pretty off

This is what the brands would like you to believe.
I think they stake their brand reputation on it. You believe tiktok factories shorts rather than a high margin luxury business who stake their rep on hand made high quality meh?

i wont

Unsold stocks are destroyed and incinerated to maintain the image of scarcity and exclusively

Raw materials are super duper cheap cheap

It's all about marketing and branding
Nike basically is just a shoe. iPhone is basically just a phone
