subject: Prada Knockoff Handbags [print this page] Yes, the Devil does indeed wear Prada and one would hope that he takes the time to actually make sure he's got the real deal and not a cheap fake. But for the average consumer, it's not that simple. How can you tell if you're as stylish as the devil or if you're just the average Joan who got stuck with one of the very many Prada knockoff handbags that proliferate out there in the real world?
Well to get you started, here's a simple check list of ideas:
1. How much did it cost? We're not saying that it's impossible for you to have purchased a Prada handbag at an amazing price, but let's be realistic. 99.9% of the time, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Don't waste your time looking for bargains. If you want the real thing, spend the money for the real thing. If not, then you shouldn't be reading this article anyway.
2. Look at the handbag's stitching. The Prada folks take great pride in the job they do in stitching their wares together. They do not rush it; the stitching will not be very noticeable and what you can see will be neat and extremely elegant looking.
3. Check the inside lining of the Prada handbag. A knockoff Prada Handbag will not have the black lining with the Prada logo imprinted on it to contrast with the black color. If the color of the inside is some other color than black or is a pattern, then congratulations, you've been punked. It's not all bad. It's still a handbag and most people probably can't tell the difference any more than you can, but be aware it ain't the real thing.
4. Check the spelling. Remember that episode of Everybody Hates Chris when Chris buys his mom fake Peur Voodoo perfume? The bottle was a perfect knockoff, except for the spelling, which was actually too good. The fake spelled "pure" correctly.
5. Look for a small metal tag on the inside. The Prada knockoff handbags will have a plastic or even cloth tag while the genuine article will have a heavy metal tag.
6. Finally, take a look inside and find the certificate of authenticity. This card should identify the product you are holding as the genuine article real deal. If it's missing, you like have purchased for yourself one of those very many Prada knockoff handbags.
