Default Re: I saw my first Louboutin fake this week

Is there really such a thing as "discounted" shoes, or is my best bet waiting for sales in legit stores/sites? I noticed that Barney's online has pretty good deals.

It really is better to get shoes from a reputable seller. Many sites are now selling counterfeits & even $20 is overpriced for that in my mind. If this year is anything like last year, there will be great sales on fall merchandise in spring & summer (May-June). I saw Legit CL slides at Joseph's online stores for about $250. You can also get occasional steals from Barneys - but their online stock is often incorrect, so there's a chance an order will be cancelled by email after ordering - but some folks do get lucky on their sales, so it may be worth ordering & crossing your fingers.

You can also try some Nordstroms (Seattle Flag store) during the 1/2 yearly sale to see if there are any discounts to be had.

And, there is always Bluefly - it's rare to find a CL for under $200 there, but is does happen occasionally.

Also, many websites offer so-called 'designer' shoes & handbags but will state AAA quality somewhere on their website. This is code for 'high quality fake' & is a big warning flag.

Good luck. If you are going to pay $200-$1000 for a shoe, it should be the real thing. KWIM.
