It seems what they mention if often the retail price of the totally overprices brand name items. But how much does any of those brand name companies actually pay for the production? Maybe 10% or the retail price? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bangkok Barry Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 How stupid do you have to be to advertise knock-off goods on the internet so that the whole world can see what you're doing, including the brand name owners? And then be surprised when there's a knock at the door. I guess some people still don't understand the internet and that advertising isn't only seen by potential customers. Same with those who arrange illegal motorcycle races on the internet, and then being shocked when the police show up. Totally brainless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IAMHERE Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 Just how many Thai's can afford a 'real' designer bag? I don't see many at the local market that can spend that kind of money. If not for the fake goods there wouldn't be a market. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And then I spoke with girls who work in a 5-star hotel. Salary and tip together maybe 25k per months. And they all thought it's necessary to have a designer bag. As far as I remember the price of the bags they mentioned was 30k up, more than one month salary for them... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm all for copy items. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I expect they were paying import tax on the items same as you, they are not exempt. I am aware of several sellers and they all pay the import required. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Real price 50,000 baht, fake price 500 baht. Same bag, same use. What you want? a) real bag b) fake bag with 49,500 baht cash. Be stupid buy “real” bag. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
