I had bought one a few years back, I have asked a few of the top "knockoff knowers" and the bag was described as real, but I want to know if you would ever carry around a fake bag if the quality was great and why or why not?

Oh, hells yeah!!!
I have 11 purses - red, orange, yellow, green, black, black & white houndstooth check, brown, camel, white, hot pink & leopard. Every single one is a knock-off...Most are not-a-Prada's, 'cause that's more my style. But I haven't paid more than $35 for any of them, and I don't know why I should! It's a handbag, for pete's sake! As my single friend would say, if I'm gonna pay more than $100 for it, it had better vibrate!
I also have a "real" NineWest bag, which started falling apart faster than the knock-off's do.
As far as I'm concerned, anyone who pays full price for one is simply foolish...The materials aren't that special, and it's just gonna be out of style in another six months, anyway.

Never. Fake bags never have the quality as a real one and the guarantee. A reason to why designer bags are more expensive are because they are made and constructed with special materials and designed by high fashion retail designers. I've studied design and people think that they can always get the same look with a cheaper one but it will never be close to the same. For me, wearing a fake bag would be like cheating the designer. I know that if I was a designer, I would be disgusted to see others wearing a bag with my brand name on it but it would be fake.

fake? real? a bags a bag. if you like, it buy it. personally i find the styles nowadays suck. an i think people should coem up with something that actually looks good, rather then everybody copying the person who puts the hefty pricetag on their peice of junk.

I tried doing it, but I felt like people knew it wasn't real so I stopped. I only carry the real ones now.

Yeah, I would. It serves the purpose of a bag. And if I get style points for it, yay for me. If people condemn me for it, I may condemn them back for having a bag identical as mine only $500 more expensive.

NO WAY
and coach is becoming very overexposed and cheap looking because of all the poorly made disgusting knockoffs that dirty looking girls carry around.
also, they are now putting coach stores in malls that arent even upscale. so EVERYONE has access to it and EVERYONE will be carrying it around.
way to be original.

you could carry it around because chances are that no one will know its fake and not everyone can afford a high class designer bags (including me.)

if it looks real, I would. If I own a bag I own it because it looks great and not because it's Coach or some other brands.
