Thought this was an interesting read. I LOL'd at "Frauda". But the author comes across a bit dense questioning why people would spend "real money" ($200-$1000) on fake luxury bags. Why?! Because $200 is WAY cheaper than $800 and you're getting damn near the same thing. They also say how "risky" it is to wear knockoffs...umm ok. In the unlikely event that someone does figure it out, I'm not that worried about it.

Interesting article!
-whoa, I had no idea that knockoff goods were a trillion dollar industry!! Mind blown
-ok, I need to visit the counterfeit museum in Paris
-I want to know where these odd corners of the internet are that enable you to work directly WITH the seller on the bag! However, I'm not paying $900 for a fake, so I'll stick with Fran.

 
Haha I’d like to go to that museum too, and the direct to seller thing is news to me too (mostly) - I buy bags direct from Fran’s seller on IG now, but I haven’t found anyone on my own. Although I’m a little bit intrigued by the Reddit pages they mention, but I don’t think I have the time to fall in that internet hole. 😂 And I wouldn’t pay more than the ~$100-200 I currently pay for fakes.

This cracked me up from the Reddit page

😂😂😂😂😂aids

I can't figure out the page either. I causally browsed some of their trusted sellers, and all the stuff looks like it would appeal to the teenage market - I don't get the Supreme stuff etc? If you hit the holy grail, please LMK. 😏

I keep seeing all of these goodies you all get and I can't seem to get approved for the Ali group on Facebook. Is there some special trick to getting into the group? Can you tell I'm all jealous over here of you guys and your purchases? ;)

It also cracks me up that someone called "69CallMe" was once one of their trusted sellers. I will probably stick with Fran's group.

hahahaha I saw that thread too - never trust anyone with "69" in their username. From what I read it sounds like they ordered shirts from him that should have had a large logo on them, like covering the whole shirt, but he sent them shirts with itty bitty logos right in the center.

I don't get the supreme thing either - there were a bunch of other brands I didn't really recognize either in that group. I've done a fair amount of poking around the interwebs over the last year looking at different Ali groups and stuff, and honestly so far Fran's is the best.

What did you get?

I’m debating on whether I need to go 1:1 or if I’m between is good enough.

I got an in between Neverfull and I'm getting a 1:1 Keepall this week... if the Keepall is that much better, I'll spring for 1:1... but hopefully in between is enough. Nobody is going through my bag to know it's fake.

 
I need a full review on the keepall! That’s next on my list.

I’ve got a cart full that I haven’t pulled the trigger on.

You all can appreciate my latest purchase, though—a 42 inch Mylar pink troll balloon for my daughter’s birthday. It’s in September, so I figure I better start ordering now 😁

A Chanel bag. How fitting! 😁

You guys.  The Foreo Mini 2 is spectacular.  My skin has never been softer.  I used to have annoying little bumps on my forehead, which have now vanished completely since using this little face cleaner.  I ordered two more to have around the house.  Also, I'm in love with the La Mer moisturizing crème.  I have no idea how it compares to the $$$$ original, or what they stick in it, but the Ali knock-off is incredible.  Save your money and skip the Botox in a bottle.  BTW, i'm not sure if they deleted the post, but did anyone else see the woman who posted a before/after of the Botox in a bottle?  It was VERRRRRRY obvious that the "after" was Facetuned AF.  I mean, why bother doing that unless the company is paying you?  So bizarre. 

Lol I missed the facetune post, I'll try and find it. Can you DM me the Foreo link you used? I've been eyeballing those but wasn't sure which link to use.

Can you DM the Disco info? I’ve ordered a 1:1 and ducking love it!! But I’m willing to get a cheaper on so I can have another. Thanks!!

Ahhhh!!! I love, love, love AK so much, Durst!  I really need to know what her husband does for a living that she is able to fly in her hairdresser from CA to bleach her hair blonde.  

​I bought a bunch of stuff from her, and it's always been top quality.  I think I may like her group even better than Fran's. 

Haha I saw that about her hair too - wild! Idk what her husband does, but back when she was working with Fran she said she used to be a professional bag reseller for Hermes, which is why she's so good at finding the good fakes.

I've only been in it a couple of days, but I like her group better too. Its way less cluttered, and I would suspect there are less dumb people in it who do stuff like "." to follow. It seems like Fran's group has almost gotten too big for its own good, and they're getting greedy. Her minions will post links with the ugliest, most random crap ever. Its like they are throwing everything at the wall just to see what sticks. I really like how AK's group is more edited, and the pics of how she styles stuff. That's part of the reason that in Fran's group I definitely don't bother to use Chrome- I don't find her likeable at all so I'm not inclined to do her any favors. I also hate how Fran's group is less than transparent about it and tries to make people think they won't get the right thing if they don't use Chrome, when the truth is they will get it, Fran just won't get the commission. I like how AK is just straight up about it.

I'm dying to know what went down between Fran and AK. There's kind of a thread about it on AK's page (just search "Fran"), it doesn't go into specifics but Fran is clearly a shady beach.

Yep, I totally agree with you about Fran.  I feel like I know a lot of women like her IRL, and I'm not into helping her out either. There's something about her that seems bitchy.  Also, no joke about the random crap that they're throwing out there. Dangling goldfish bag earrings. Really?

​Coincidentally, I reached out to AK regarding an order on the day she was fired.  She told me that Fran fired her b/c she was talking to some of the other admins that Fran had previously fired from the group. ???? Who knows??  I do like her taste and her style, and I find her endearing.  However, the huge skeptic in me has to question all of the fantastic tales she tells.  Like, does her husband REALLY make all those comments about her outfit?? Did she REALLY just fly from HI to CA in one day to deliver Hermes bags to a client?? (That was a fairly recent post).  In any case, even if it's all made-up, I really enjoy the page, and she does an excellent job of curating it all.
