Part of My Replica Bags Collection Crazy how these are worth over $40,000 USD at their retail price when I got them for a 10th of that amount!
Where do I buy replica bags?
Hi guys!
I get A LOT of emails about what sites I recommend for buying replica bags and here are some dealers/sites I shop with right now.
I try to update the list from time to time but keep in mind I buy replicas about 4-5 times a year in big hauls so I don’t update the list every second.
Please keep in mind:
- These are just places I have experience with hence why I recommend them.
- BUT at the end of the day, you should shop with whoever you feel comfortable with.
The key point of this blog is to point out differences you should be looking for between real and fake bags which you can use whilst shopping generally. For a detailed guide on replica quality, please refer to the article on How to Choose Best Replica Bags.
Table of Contents
Presently, I don’t shop on Ioffer, Aliexpress, or social media because I have been burned through them (as have a lot of other blog readers) and they are really hit or miss.
I prefer to build long-term relationships with reliable sellers so I can make sure I always get high-quality products every time.
If you have any sites to recommend please email me or comment below!

Now, let’s delve into the details of these sellers and my stories with them. 👇
- Hannah – Perfect Hermes (PH)
They cover almost all of the bags from the Hermès collection and a portion of their wallets, like Birkin, Kelly, Constance, Evelyne, Garden Party, Bolide, Lindy, Jypsiere, and Halzan – it’s a treasure trove for Hermes enthusiasts!
They also offer other Hermès-related items, like shoes, home goods, and scarves.
👉 Read my full review of the Fake Hermes Blanket Comparison
This seller was recommended to me by a reader named Jess. I clearly remember that for months, I had been searching for the best supplier for my Super Hermès.
I have authentic Hermès, so I wanted the highest quality.
Back then (in 2016), several readers recommended PH, so I reached out to Hannah. She responded quickly and shared videos of their hand-stitching process and leatherwork. It was both amazing and fascinating.
I ordered my first faux Birkin bag from them back in 2016. Wow, it’s been so long (I feel old)!
They have access to pretty much all the colors, if it’s a new color I’m not sure, but it’s worth asking.
I sent Hannah a photo of a HSS bag with 3 colors, (I didn’t know the name of any of the colors) and she was able to tell me each color name so that I could order.
The sellers see these leathers and colors all day every day. It doesn’t hurt to ask!
She was very patient, asking about my preferences, like if I preferred the more textured Togo leather. She made recommendations based on my tastes, like a personal stylist—haha.
They offer Togo, Epsom, Swift, and other leathers, including exotic ones. Besides that, they also provide a variety of hardware options.

You can place an order on their website or email them pictures and dimensions of what you’re interested in. They’ll check the quote for you.
If it’s not in stock, they’ll need a 50% deposit for custom orders, which take about 15-20 days.
They do really detailed work and take tons of photos of each bag, including the keys, lock, leather, logo, stamp codes, stitching, and edges.
They also send videos. If there’s anything you’re not happy with, they’ll make changes, so make sure to check the photos carefully.
Once everything is good and you’ve paid the rest, they’ll ship it the next day via DHL, FedEx, or USPS, and give you a tracking number.
In my experience, the shipping method can vary, but you can ask for a specific one.
I’ve gotten 2 Kellys, 4 Birkins, 1 Constance, 1 Evelyne, 1 Garden Party, and 3 wallets from them. Honestly, they’ve never let me down, and my bags always get lots of compliments.

One of my orders. Birkin 30, Nata/Gold, bghw, epsom. I love it! |
This is a gift for my sis. Lindy Etain outside with rose sakura inside, GHW. We both absolutely love the adorable combination that Hannah recommended. |
Ever since I met Hannah, I no longer think it’s worth it to “play the Hermes game” to get a Birkin or a Kelly. The high-tier version replicas are SO good.
I have taken my Kelly into the boutique to get a pair of leather shoes for my husband. I have worn these bags around my girlfriends who have spent >300,000 on boutique bags. And had them gush nonstop at the quality of my “Diamond quality fake”
My next replica Hermes will be a crocodile Birkin and I’m eyeing the Himalayan.
Long story short: I will never get a boutique bag nor a resale Replica Knockoff Hermes; I will ONLY get high-tier replicas from here on out.

- Lily – Designer Discreet (DD)
Warning: there are fake DD out there. The fake sites stop responding after you pay. I’ve received several complaints, a lady was scammed out of $1500!
They’re a massive factory, offering not only bags of various brands but also clothing, shoes, earrings, bracelets, and necklaces.
They have a wide range of products. If you can’t find what you’re looking for on their website, just shoot them an email.
I got some excellent fake Gucci items from DD, and they go really well with my outfits.
Honestly, one of the reasons why I bought fake is because I used them as replacement to my Replica Knockoff items for traveling. Just like the replica Gucci Savoy bag I picked out for my husband. 😂😂
I seldom use my Replica Knockoff for travel especially my Chanel or any Replica Knockoff bags that are bright color.
I was in Paris for a week. Traveled with fake LV, Chanel, and YSL bags. Even went into the LV boutique with my replica Pochette Metis from DD.
I’ve traveled with my replica bags several times and have never had an issue. My personal bag is always a replica St. Louis or Neverfull and inside is always another replica bag like my Multi Pochette Accessoires or Classic Flap.
Whenever I’m looking for a more niche brand, DD is always my first choice. Customer service rep Lily has great insights into their bag selections (not necessarily the priciest ones).
For instance, when my sister really wanted that red fake Miu Miu, Lily didn’t recommend it. She straightforwardly mentioned the color discrepancy issue with that bag and suggested I go for the black one instead.
She would select products for me and circle the most obscure flaws and send me pics.
If an item I wanted wasn’t repped well, she would tell me and suggest items when she figured out I had eclectic taste. She’s the best!

- Xinya – Louis Mirror (Louis)
Email: louismirrorru@gmail.com
They specialize in Louis Vuitton bags as their name suggests, and have some sneakers on their site as well!
I bought a pair of Gucci sneakers from them, and I even compared them with my Replica Knockoff ones.
Their product album is easy to browse, but there’s no shopping cart button. You can only order via email.
They charge $30 for shipping, but usually, when I make bulk purchases, they waive the shipping fee.
I like working with Xinya. Very sweet, responsive, quick, good English.
She also gave me an insight into how they go about their business, it was fun chatting with her. It makes me feel like I’m not talking to a robot, but a friend hehehe
I remember one time when I wasn’t satisfied (it was a newly repped bag and the stitching didn’t look great).
After I saw the pre-shipment pictures, she offered a refund or said if I could wait 10 days, they could produce a new one to guarantee perfection, and they threw in a cardholder for the delay.
I find them still competitive. It is absolutely worth the peace of mind that my quality will be top-notch every. single. time.
She has sent multiple bags back for quality issues before even sharing them with me, and if I have a concern with a bag she is willing to send it back, but my concerns are usually resolved with a quick video she snaps.
She’s to the point and no nonsense, no fluff, so it feels like a personal victory when I can get a fun emoji out of her, but she’s fantastic at what she does.
- Hannah – Perfect C Club (PCC)
Email: perfectcclub@gmail.com
PCC is a great source for Chanel!
Super responsive and had several successful purchases that arrived safe and sound, perfect boutique packaging (dust bag, booklet, flower, box, and shopping bag).
Very good selection and a good communicator. A good friend of mine was a replica newbie and they helped her with a serious Chanel mission (wedding party) that she was ecstatic about.
Hannah would even returned excess payments because the ones I liked were not available. Very honest. P.S. She’s a Chanel enthusiast. Whenever I have questions about bags, she patiently discusses them with me.
She’s very honest and professional. She’s also stopped me from buying something because it was not well made. I trust her opinion 110%!
She will tell me straight up if there are flaws in a replica that I didn’t notice (slightly off color or strap length differences) and will recommend better quality reps, she’s great!
She never gets annoyed with my many questions or requests for more photos, and I’ve always been happy with what I’ve bought from them.

Email: kittyrepstar@gmail.com
Kitty was difficult to get started with she’s very cautious (understandably so) and was slow to respond (I knew her modus operandi was to disappear after taking the monies, which I was prepared for, but I didn’t expect the initial struggle to get her to take my money!)
However, once we got through that first order, she’s been an absolute gem!
She’s so helpful in helping me pick out things I like if something isn’t available, and their quality is top-notch, I love working with them.
- Bella
Email: bellasrepbags@gmail.com
Love working with Bella. She is my go-to for wallets and I’ve bought 7 of them from her!
I remember one time, she declined a wallet her colleague sent for me as there was a very small what looked like pin prick mark in the leather.
She sent the photo and circled the damage for me to see and told me that a new one has already been requested.
She did inform me about the delay, but I was kept updated the whole time, and their quality control was excellent.

Which seller is better?
For me, this question is impossible to answer because it’s entirely subjective.
What may be crucial details to one person could not matter at all to someone else.
Different sellers/factories have their own strengths and weaknesses when it comes to major details (like leather, proportions, and all external features) and minor details (like the shape of a clasp, font on the serial number tag, etc.).
If the suppliers or sellers have different brands and styles, it’s not really comparable.
When I want LV, I usually go for Louis or DD.
How do I order a replica bag?
1. If you want to order a specific bag, you can send a message directly to the seller.
Or, if you’re like me and enjoy browsing extensively through the seller’s website and album catalogs, I often decide on the style I want through browsing.
2. Ask for the seller’s opinion. Keep in mind that the quality can vary between different batches of products. Some batches are great, while others might not be as good, so asking is really important.
3. Once you’ve made your final choice, confirm the order and pay using your preferred method.
Generally, sellers accept PayPal Friends and Family, Wise, Western Union, Bitcoin, MoneyGram, wire transfer, etc. I prefer using Wise because it’s fast and has low fees.
4. Be patient while waiting for the PSPs (pre-shipment photos) of each item you ordered. Most sellers don’t provide them automatically, so be sure to let the seller know you want them when you place your order.
5. If you’re happy with the PSPs, the seller will ship your order. If not, the seller will offer an exchange or refund.
6. Once you’re satisfied and the order is ready to ship, make sure to send the seller your complete shipping information (recipient, address, city, state, postal code, country, and phone number).
Also, let them know your preferred shipping service and the declared value for the package. (I usually don’t make special requests; the sellers are more experienced with shipping and declarations.)
7. Be patient while waiting for updates. The seller will provide a tracking number within a few days, and you can track it at 17track.
Trusted Seller Resources: FAQs
｜About Payment
1. Why some sellers don’t accept Paypal?
PayPal can be a risky payment method for replica sellers, which is why not all of them use it.
Sellers who do use PayPal have often had their accounts frozen, suspended, or completely shut down due to fraudulent disputes filed by dishonest buyers after they’ve received their orders.
That’s why, if a seller accepts PayPal, they’ll typically ask you to send the money using the “Friends Family” option rather than “Goods Services.”
2. How do I transfer money via Wise/How to wire money?
Some people think using Wise is tricky, but it’s actually not that bad. They provide clear, step-by-step instructions for sending money.
There are several options for paying for your transfer. You can pay from your bank account, your Wise account, or use a Debit or Credit Card.
Keep in mind that different methods come with different fees for each option. Just pick whichever method you find most convenient or has the lowest fees.
If you prefer a wire transfer, you can also check this guide for reference.
3. Why does my Wise/Wire transfer keep getting denied?
They’ve got to play by the rules, which include federal and international anti-money laundering regulations.
If it’s your first time transferring money abroad, they might put your transfer on hold and ask you some questions about who you’re sending money to and why.
Sometimes, the rejection has absolutely nothing to do with you. It could be because the seller has hit their limit for receiving transfers, whether it’s for the day, month, or even the whole year.
So, if a seller says they can’t pick up the money even though your tracking status shows as “Received,” it means the bank or agent has the funds but won’t release them to the recipient due to account limits.
If that’s the case, you’ll need to reach out to Wise/bank to get your transfer sorted out. No need to stress too much; they can’t just lose your money.
It’s all tracked electronically. If there’s a hiccup, just talk to your seller and call the Wise/bank’s customer service number, and they’ll help you out.
4. What do I tell them when Wise/bank asks me about my transfer?
You can be honest and give general answers, be honest and provide all the specifics, or you can just keep it really vague.
It’s tough to say which approach is more likely to get your transfer approved. It can vary from person to person depending on the agent you’re dealing with.
They’re not grilling you to catch you buying replicas; they honestly don’t care about that.
Their main concern is making sure you’re not sending money to some shady terrorist group or falling for a Nigerian prince scam.
｜About Shipping Customs
1. I received the EMS/DHL/FedEx/USPS tracking info, but it’s not valid.
Don’t jump to conclusions just yet if your tracking info doesn’t seem to be working. Sometimes, it takes a few days for the tracking to actually start showing updates.
What’s happened is that the shipping agent, not the seller, has created the label for your package. And they’re the ones responsible for sending it out.
Give it a day or two. If you’re using DHL, sometimes the waybill number can change.
To get the updated number, you’ll either need to reach out to the seller or try searching by the shipper’s reference number on the DHL website.
2. Is there anything I can do to prevent customs from seizing my package?
Honestly, not much. What customs decides to take is kind of a random thing.
It’s mostly just bad luck. Even small packages can get snagged just as easily as big ones.
And skipping the full packaging doesn’t necessarily guarantee it’ll sail through safely. At the end of the day, all you can really do is cross your fingers and hope for the best.
3. What if my package gets seized? Will the seller replace it?
The standard policy is that if your order gets seized in China, the seller will replace it for free. However, if it’s seized in your destination country, the seller typically isn’t responsible.
The seizure policy can vary from seller to seller. So ask about their specific policy before making a payment.
Some sellers might replace seized packages with no extra charge, some might reship if you pay half of the original total, and others might offer seizure insurance for an extra fee.
Be aware of what to expect in case this happens to you, so you’re not caught off guard by the outcome.

Advice please! I ordered a pair of Golden Goose Sneakers. Seller sent me pictures and the shoes look really bad. I pointed out some specifics of the differences vs authentics and he said the factory can’t change them. Any advice on what I should do? I paid for them on 11/11. I had not heard back so reached out on 12/5. He sent the pics yesterday and told me today that they cannot be changed.
If there are obvious flaws like quality issues with the shoes, you should tell him. If you ordered a custom size (too large feet), you likely won’t be able to return them.
just received my small Cartier love bracelet and paired it with my AE moissanite tennis bracelet. So happy!
Anyone ever use capcod wipes on your gold hardware?
I’ve been influenced as well!
I didn’t know these existed, thank you for the tip. Just googled and ordered
Are there any high quality cashmere sweaters that are rep or grey market? Looking for some nice quality cashmere sweaters (doesn’t have to be Loro Piana but looking at La Ligne range…essentially a step up from Everlane, etc) and wondering if I’m better off trying to find a sale on auth or if I’m missing any info on reps!
Hello all, I hope you’re having a great weekend! My first two reps are on the way (Chanel CF SHW and Loulou black GHW) and I’m so excited!anxiously refreshes tracking📦✨
I need fashion advice! Tl;dr do black shoes match a silver bag with a navy dress or should I get silver or navy shoes?
I have a good amount of navy dresses to match my husband since he wear a lot of navy and I usually wear them with black shoes and a black bag.
I’ve been eyeing and have this cult Gaia bag in my cart and I want it in white or silver. Leaning towards silver but it comes with a gold chain
Many people consider navy with black to be very classic. However, I love a metallic. Is it a good excuse to buy silver bag and silver shoes for evening events…?😉
That’s what I was thinking 🫢😂
Black and Navy match pretty much everything and generally class up the joint wherever they go. You can, of course, get silver for fun.
Personally I don’t care for shoes matching the bag so I’d do black shoes.
You’re fine to wear black
I ended up buying red shoes to go with new red bags I bought LOOOL OOPS in hindsight I should have bought navy but I guess I wanted the excuse to shop hahaha
So I was messaging a seller about my order and ended with “hope you are healthy and take care” they responded back “❤️ I have a little headache”. Am I the headache? Do I say anything back? Maybe something was lost in translation? 😅
Lolllll I would just write a heart back or nothing at all, but I’m lightly obsessed with some of the seller conversations being posted here recently 😂
Currently in Paris on vacation, I bought a Max Mara Pauline coat (I’m in Love!) I have a rep of the same coat in camel at home, can’t wait to compare the two when I get back from vacation. 💕☺️
Yes pics please! So fun you’re in Paris for the holidays!!!
I’m having a great time! Yes I will definitely post pics
Cute! Post pics if you do a comparison (if you want lol) 🙂
Ugh…please talk me out of getting a Mini Kelly!!! I know how impractical this bag is but I can’t get it out of my head!!!! 😅😅😅
Do it. Who needs stuff inside anyway when you’re looking so cute
Lol you’re not helping! It IS so cute right ugh 🤦♀️
I can fit quite a bit in my mini Kelly. I have a Samsung 22, usually two lipsticks/glosses, keys, cards and cash, a compact mirror, perfume, and ear plugs in mine when I go out. All of it fits without it looking loaded or stuffed.
Thanks for the advice. Is your MK Epsom? If I ever get one I want it in Chèvre leather do you think leather makes a difference in flexibility?
Mine is chevre. I have a 28 in Epsom, and I’d say the chevre is a little more pliable, but for me, not so much that I’d pick one over the other for this reason.
Haha I think you should definitely get it as long as you have access to the sellers..
That’s true who knows what other disruptions will happen in the future!
Alas I cannot. I had the xmas shopping outing yesterday with mine and just love the feeling of it. It completes a look like nothing else makes me feel like a million.
I just love the look that’s why I’m struggling. Does it wear well crossbody? I am 5 ft but quite busty.
Meh, I can’t work it crossbody. 5’3″ and also busty (the struggle is real.)
I love what you said about it completing an outfit and making you feel like a million! Our purses should make us feel this way!
get a kelly 25 or Kelly pochette.
Yeah maybe a K25!
I LOVE my mini kellys. If you don’t need a lot with you all the time, it’s a lovely bag
It is really adorable 🥰
Do sellers have vintage Chanel reps with solid 24k ghw? I want a ghw bag but don’t want it to tarnish
I haven’t found any sellers that sell vintage chanel with plated 24k gold, I wish they did though. I would love to buy one.
It was never solid 24k, only 24k plated. Now it’s just gold colour.
Ahh ok thank you!
No problems! 😊
What is your favorite small crossbody to wear with casual or athletic wear while running errands. My go to is my Chanel WOC but it doesn’t fit my pro phone well. I need something a tad bigger. Suggestions?
I love my Gucci Ophidia, so cute, versatile roomy!!
Celine trio is my daily driver
LV has some nice options
Mini Lindy!!!!
I love my Mini Bolide, Mini Halzan, and Mini Puzzle. Each one fits all my necessities just fine and are tiny and adorable and obviously not heavy at all. Each of these is also IYKYK in my view. I agree with you re the Chanel WOC.
What’s everyone using as their wallet? I’m more into small cardholder type wallets. Currently using the LV key pouch but it’s annoying trying to find the card I need but I do love the size of it. I’m looking into getting another with actual card slots to replace it. Any recommendations?
YSL fragments! I have it and love it. It has plenty of card slots and a zip top for errant bills or other things.
Outfit of last night. I don’t like wearing black really, but when I do, it needs to be a little witchy. 🧙🏾♀️ I waffled between shoes and bags, but ultimately went with the white bag and gold hardware shoes. Patiently waiting for my Chanel classic flap to go with this. 😊
I finally did it. I pulled the trigger again on V gold🤦🏻♀️ This time with white gold pieces. I did experience yellow v gold “tarnishing” or fading on the edges of my last Love bracelet. I was dead set on sterling silver but found it was damn near impossible to find a seller that had it. It was either 18k, V Gold, or stainless steel. I very much wish I could find a seller for .925.
So I have the Love 4 diamond and the small pave in V Gold (VG1). After 3 weeks of wearing 24/7, they are holding up fine. Make sure to dry them if they get wet and also to polish them with a jewelers cloth and they can last for quite awhile.
Is yours white V gold or rose/yellow?
White
Ouu keep me posted if anything changes! I haven’t seen very many white Vgold reviews, so this is helpful. I’m definitely interested in the wear and tear update (:
Curious to hear who you found stainless steel pieces from!
I ended up going with AE and did V white gold, and then bought a stainless steel one from a DHG shop (:
Does anyone know if we can cop football jerseys in our lovely rep universe?
Not an expert by any means, but my husband and I have been happy with the jerseys from this DHG store.

Thank you! Will check it out.
These snow days are bad bad bad. I need to be stopped. I’ve ordered three 5 motif bracelets a 10 motif necklace and two small diamond JUCs in the last 48 hours.
2023 is fast approaching-looking for some rep inspiration!
My friends, I received a DHGate Polene numero un nano and waiting for the Replica Knockoff to arrive.
Anyone else new / semi-new to bags scared to death of leather conditioner?? I want to condition all my bags as part of my end-of-year closet cleanup, I have leather honey + bick4, but the only bag I’ve ever conditioned is my fendi first (like a year ago) which wasn’t too scary as it’s definitely leather also black
me! i didn’t even know you had to condition them 😂 i’m extremely new so i haven’t conditioned any of them… including my vintage ones. i’ll have to do some research about the best conditioners and cloths to use! tho i’m scared i’ll ruin them or something !
I’ll do some research too, I’ll share if I find a good guide!! My deadline is 12/31, so I need to get it together ❤️
i think i remember reading here that some people will avoid leather honey on light colored bags; and use cadillac or apple conditioner on light colors ?
How do you store your bags (auth or rep)? I usually keep them in their dustbags, but saw youtubers etc would ‘display’ them. Is there a ‘right’ way to store them?
Depends on the amount of room you have. I keep mine in brand boxes and have them looking good with the brand ribbons etc and also have a ‘display’ shelf in small walk in robe to show them off. This is for my benefit. Sometimes I just walk in and stare at them and go out again. I’d have more out but I don’t have a huge robe, I have about three ‘posed’ and looking fabulous.
I like to see my bags, they make me smile🙂. I store mine on a display unit but sadly it doesn’t have doors so put a diy curtain/drape up to keep the dust out, zero sunlight and still allowing the leather to breath. Works well for me 🙃
I loveee the idea of displaying them out, but I probably wouldn’t do that without a glass door — I keep my windows open though and I get a lot of dust buildup, so it’s the mean reason that I keep things in their dustbag for now
The best way to store leather bags are in their dust bags, away from lighting not in boxes to let the leather breathe. Displaying can cause damage the sun will make color fade and will also dry the leather. Dust will damage the finish and make your bags look dull and just a simple dusting won’t take care of all of it. Also don’t want to over clean the bags because of dust.
Dustbags if they’re not in an enclosed cabinet.
Mine are mostly out displayed by themselves behind a glass shelf. The ones that don’t fit are stored inside dust bag/boxes.
In the last week or so I’ve been on a kick trying to minimize and streamline my life: paring down my skincare and makeup routines/collections, my closet, and of course my bags 😂 It’s bittersweet listing any of them for sale, but I already know it’s the right choice to send them to loving homes where they’ll actually get used! And if I really miss them, I could always order another rep, right?
I’ve never sold a bag in my life hahaha. I suffer “analysis paralysis” over analyse every purchase so I only buy where there’s a need/gap in my collection. That’s not to say I haven’t received a dud here or there and those I just donate/throw out. Wardrobe, on the other hand, is a constant problem. I used to be one of those people who went through every year and anything I hadn’t worn over a two year period went straight to the goodwill bin no questions asked (except gowns/coats/jackets etc which have longevity!). Been a bit slack there of recent years but always seem to be buying new clothes??? Great idea to pare down skincare as we all went through a phase of over treating our skin and buying every (mostly unnecessary) new ‘thing’. TLDR; yes, you can always re-buy hahaha
I’m standing here right now I’m the same situation. Sell a bag?! Never!
