Re: Flea Market Raided
i just don't get it...why would someone think that a 300-600 pocketbooks would sell for 100? And yet still be real
sure there are places you can get discounts but COME ON

The majority of people buy fakes knowing that they're not authentic.

I've seen them..they don't even look real. The Coach bags have 'G's' on them!

i like the fake pocketbooks you would get nervous about losing it or getting stolen. I had one once and it broke on me the real pocketbooks so now like i said i buy the fakes.

Re: Flea Market Raided
Yeah, well .. in my younger years when I worked retail .. there were shoplifters who would target stores for big hits .. and my understanding was they were doing this to sell the items at the flea markets .. so that's a very low cost to the flea market retailers .. anything they sell it for would be pure profit.
There were instances when a pile of clothes would be missing from a display .. it wasn't uncommon for piles to be taken off the displays to be re-folded .. however .. there were times .. when things were really bad .. they were getting away with whole stacks of clothes .. and employees would be paranoid asking where piles of clothes went .. to make sure they were actually being re-folded somewhere .. sometimes they weren't.
