Agreed WHOLEHEARTEDLY.
My philosophy is this: If I can't afford to buy 1 or more of the REAL thing in any given year without it breaking my pocketbook, I shouldn't try to pretend like I can...cause really, that is what you are doing when you buy a fake.. you're pretending. Which is why I don't carry fake LVs, fake Fendis, or fake Chanel bags.
I will never be a supporter of knock-offs regardless of how little they cost, or how "close" they look to the REAL thing. It's sick really.
Remember that episode of Sex & the City when Samantha takes her fake Fendi to the Playboy mansion and looked like an idiot when she accused a girl there of stealing her bag?... yeah.
