look fabulous not fake... 

We do understand that the greatest form of flattery is to imitate, however lovehandbags.co.uk are 100% against copying in design and will only ever sell 100% authentic luxury goods.  Our aim is to make this boutique a safe and most trusted place on-line to find your authentic pre-loved or new luxury handbag.

The idea of buying an expensive handbag on-line is extremely unnerving for most people.  And rightly so as many of the designer listings online (for both new and pre-loved items), the majority of which unless purchased direct from the brand or an authorised agent - are for counterfeit goods.  A huge percentage of which are sold as authentic to an unknowing public for the same price or as close to as the genuine item. These counterfeit, mirror or high copies appear genuine to many unsuspecting buyers and often go undetected in most cases.  Unfortunately these items are then re -advertised for sale as authentic (often genuinely in belief of this) by the original purchaser - leading to a recycling of fake poor quality goods.  So it can be a minefield to find a fabulous genuine pre-loved item, which is where love handbags do the work for you.

fakes are never in fashion.com 

The counterfeit industry currently dictates that child labour amongst its many other illegal activities, remains rife.   The average adult weekly wage amounts to a pittance, whilst its workers perform under often intolerable conditions. This is an illegal industry, which offers its workers no basic rights within terms of safety, working conditions or pay.  The money which is paid for these counterfeit or fake goods contributes directly to the continued criminal practises of these networks, so think twice before purchasing a copy! 

Harper's Bazaar have just launched www.fakesareneverinfashion.com a new website which aims to become a key source in the counterfeit war and which will arm you with knowledge on how you can make a difference.  Take a look at our against copying in design page to read more on our attempts to eliminate fakes from your wardrobes!
