Today's bag review is by the lovely Tia. Thank you Tia for your detail pictures and your bag review of the Demier Azur Canvas Speedy 30.

Damier Azur Canvas Speedy 30
I bought this bag from a street vendor in Florence, Italy for 30 euros after bargaining it down from like 60 euros. All up I LOVED the colour it was heaps summery and a lot of Italian women had it so I wanted one too. It is fairly sturdy and the handles are really nice and smooth, given that I use it everyday and throw it around. I'm not sure if its really supposed to have a gold plaque on it, but given that I use it a lot it has kind of tarnished and looks a bit yuk now :( But overall I really like this bag its a good size and its surprisingly easy and comfortable to carry around.

Hermes Birkin with silver hardware 40cm grey bag review by Ace

The following bag review is by Ace and he is great to write a very detail summary of his Hermes Birkin from Joy. Thank you Ace.

"My Birkin arrived very promptly, all the way from China to California in less than a week. Ordering was easy and customer service with Joy. She was wonderful as usual. Joy is great at answering all questions and is honest about her products. If only the bag was as wonderful as Joy is... unfortunately, the Birkin had been stuffed into a small box, thus severely deforming it and bending the bag out of shape. The handles were especially bad - they were facing the wrong directions and looked terrible. This was very frustrating for me, as I look forward to being able to take a great replica out of the box and use it straight away.
There was also some sort of white paint or glue on the top edge of the Birkin. At first, I thought it was paper, so I tried to scratch it off. After trying and trying to remove the substance, I finally succeeded, but took a chunk out of the leather as a result. Annoying! Speaking of the leather, it is not nearly as soft or supple as I hoped it would be. I have an authentic Birkin for comparison, and this replica is hard to the touch and very stiff. The bag is rigid and feels like canvas.

The attention to detail is pretty good -Joy did a great job with the "Hermes - Paris" engraving on the metal plate - however, the stamped letters on the bag's strap are crooked and look unprofessional. I finally decided that the bag is NOT worth $200, and emailed Joy with a request to send it back.

Overall, I would give the whole experience a 5/10. I've used Joy in the past and like their products, bu not this time. Their Birkin needs a lot of work, and I would advise looking elsewhere for Hermes."

Pictures of LV trevi, speedy and galliera bags by Tanesha

Hi the follow pictures are taken by Tanesha. She didn't want any seller's information, that is why the pictures are limited. She is very generous to share with everyone the bags she brought. She also wrote the following to help others when buying reps. Thank you Tanesha.  

"i LOVE my galliera!!! at first i was concerned about the material it was made of but joy reassured me that it was in fact made from coated canvas. i have lots of pictures of it. in 2 of the pictures im posting, the trevi pm and the damier azur speedy are going to be featured in it. i DID NOT order those 2 bags from Joy the trevi came from toptopbag.net and the speedy from e-replica-bags.com."

 

How to get Jacky, Catty and other seller's information?

    I have been asked a few times about obtaining the sellers of Catty, Jacky or any other sellers. I have no problem in passing this information, but my main concern is if I do give out this information people who read my blog won't come back and make comments or learn about replica bags. The whole point of me starting this blog was to help not only me, but other people in finding great replica bags. I want people to read my blog and not be afraid in making comments or give their honest reviews. I have not learn everything there is to learn about replica bags and I need my readers to educate me as well. So I think the only fair way of doing this is I am willing to give any information on any seller if I get a  bag review from you. The rules are:

1. For every bag review I get I will give you one seller's information. PLEASE ONLY BAG REVIEW OF REPS OR AUTHENTIC BAGS. I much rather prefer reps. DO NOT GIVE ME PICTURES OF BAGS FROM COMPANY LIKE NINE WEST, GUESS, PAYLESS OR OTHER LESS KNOWN DESIGNERS. These kind of bag reviews don't help anyone.

2. Take 5 pictures (If you could take more that would be great.) and I will be posting your pictures on my blog and giving you the credit. Take pictures of the bag's handles (Make sure there is no plastic covering the handles. If there is, just remove it or move it to the side and then take the picture.), inside the bag, front of the bag, back of the bag and the last picture should be a picture of your hand doing the bunny ears or peace sign with the bag. (The reason I ask this is because I know that the pictures you take are really yours and you didn't just copy it from any websites. Anyone could put in a watermark on the pictures. Not many people take pictures with their hand doing the bunny ears with the bag.) Make sure I could open up your files and your pictures are good, if I cannot open it up I cannot give you the seller's information. If your pictures have too much glare or blurriness I cannot accept it. There are no exceptions.

3.Write a paragraph about your bag and your shopping experience and where did you get the bag. Just 4 or 5 sentences, if you want to write more that would be great.

4. I don't know how many responses I will get, if I don't get to you, please be patient. Please e-mail all the pictures and your experiences to craftress@yahoo.com.

5. I will not make any exceptions. These rules apply to everyone. Once I do give you the sellers' information, PLEASE DO NOT POST IT IN THE COMMENT BELOW. I will delete it. It's only fair that everyone contributes and get the sellers by themselves. I will also be deleting any seller's information on the comment below or any hints in obtaining the seller's information. This is only fair and it's not hard to do one bag review.

Here are some tips in taking good pictures of your bag. Turn off the flash and open up some windows to let in natural light. When you take the picture it would not create this glare or white spot. Use the close up mode in your camera to take details of the bag, like the buckle, zipper or stitching and it eliminate any blurry pictures. 

Here are some ideas of what to write about. Comment on the color, size and stitching of the bag. Do you like the bag? Is it cheaply made and what are your thoughts when you got the bag? How long did you have to wait in receiving the bag? Was it expensive? Where did you buy it? etc.

Here is an example of a bag I took picture to show you what is considered acceptable. When you take a picture of you doing the bunny ears make sure you don't block the bag. As you can see from the pictures below.

Picture #1-Front of the bag

Picture #2- back of the bag.

Picture #3- the bag handle.

Picture #4- Inside of the bag.

Picture #5- your hand doing the bunny ears with the bag. Do not block the bag.

Picture #5- your hand to the side doing the bunny ears with the bag. Do not block the bag.

Marc Jacob Wallet Review.

   Hi everyone. Been awhile since my last review. Here is a review of the Marc Jacob wallet I brought from Joy and so far it's my favorite wallet. Very well made and I love the color. There are a lot of compartments inside the wallet, so plenty of room for your bills, receipts, credit cards, and it could fit a small compact mirror and lip gloss to use as a clutch bag. I love the quilted pattern at the back of the wallet, which is stitched very nicely and not sloppy. In front of the wallet are two compartments, which are so cute. You could put coins or small items such as; jewelry so you could change your look easily. The only problem I have with the wallet is the zipper end is too long, which is a dead give away for a replica. I solve the problem by just tucking it inside the wallet, so it's not too bad. I recommend this wallet. It comes in many colors. I don't know if Joy have anymore because last time I check she was sold out of the white.

Tips on not being scammed when buying from ioffer.com

UPDATE ON A NEW BLOG. WWW.REPBAGSCHAT.BLOGSPOT.COM

Hi everyone. My adsense on this blog got messed up. I try to fix it, but cannot, so I create another blog just like Rep Bags. I transfer all the posts and almost everyone's comments on the new blog. The new blog is called REP BAGS CHAT. Here is the link www.repbagschat.blogspot.com From now on please go to the new blog site for updates on reps and to post all your comments. I will only be posting on www.repbagschat.blogspot.com from now on. Sorry for the inconveniences.

Hi everyone, I know a lot of people have been asking me about finding a great replica bag from ioffer.com or any other sellers. Here are some of my tips that I used when shopping for great reps. This will help some shopper pick a great seller and not be ripped off. I know this can be confusing, but if you follow my tips it might help you out on saving money and getting a great rep.

1. I type in the bag I want and I sort the listed of bags from Lowest to highest price. Do not go for sellers that is the cheapest online. Cheap doesn't mean good or expensive doesn't mean good either. RESEARCH is the way to go. From that list, I skip all the bags that have pictures of authentic bags or stolen pictures from other website. Pictures could be deceiving, so skip all the listings that have fake pictures or you think the pictures are off. If they have watermark, that is good. DO NOT BE AFRAID TO ASK FOR MORE PICTURES FROM THE SELLER OR ASK QUESTIONS. If the seller avoid that question you should avoid buying from them.

2. Skip all the sellers that have less than 99% approval ratings and sold less than 100 bags in their profile. 


3. Once you narrow all the sellers that has less than 99% approval rating, look at how many of bags they sold. Pick the seller that sold the most bags in their profile. Don't just pick any sellers with just 99% approval ratings. That can be deceiving. Always read the negative feedback from the buyers. It is usually listed on the last page of the seller's feedback page. Ioffer usually put it in the last page, because it puts sellers in a negative light. Reading the negative reviews give you an idea of how sellers handle the situation when there is a problem. Were the seller able to fix the problem or they ignore it? When did it happen? Did a lot of negative feedback start popping out recently, if it did, that is telling me that the seller is dealing with problems in their own life or manufacturing problems in the factory. You should avoid it. Click on a few of the negative review and read the exchange of communication between buyer and seller. See if the seller was good at communicating and did s/he ignore the buyer's questions? If they ignore the buyers questions, mostly likely they will ignore the buyer when there's a problem in the future. Reading the conversation also give you an idea that sometimes the buyer is being unreasonable and refused to work with the seller. 

4. It is also a good idea to contact any pass buyers of the bag and ask them personally how they like the bag. They might ignore you, but there is a chance they will answer you back. Questions like, How is the stitching, color and shape of the bag? Do you recommend this seller? etc.


5. Another way of picking a seller is when members from bag forums put pictures of their purchases online. If you see what you like go buy it from that seller. 

6. I cannot say one seller is better than the other. One seller might sell the best LV bags, but their Chanel is not great or their Gucci is bad. Another seller might have great Balenciaga bag, but not Hermes. My advice is buy from the seller according to their specialty.


I hope some of my tips help people in finding great replica bags. I know recently that my readers are asking me about Jacky, Catty or any other sellers. I am not being a bitch and being a seller hoarder. I do not mind sharing, which I will be doing in my future post. Please be patience. I just want to find a fair and great way in sharing so everyone could benefit.
