I heard that many people got cheated by buying purses at Bergacci.com. Bergacci advertised that their handbags are 100% authentic as they worked with brand names like LV, Chanel, Fendi, etc. When customers return a bag, the store will sell it to them instead of reselling at the store.

I think this website is now down probably because of the scam.

I work in a retail store... so spotting fake bags has kind of become a game for me. I'll see someone carrying a designer purse and I'll try to get close enough to see if its a fake. I have a pretty well-trained eye for Coach and Dooney knock-offs. I see tons of LV purses everyday, and no doubt most of them are fake. I don't even think there is a place you can buy real ones around here. I remember one girl who came in a couple of weeks ago. I watched her as she sat her fake Coach on the counter to pay for her purchase. Then she whips out her matching fake Coach wallet. Sheesh! I wanted to ask her if she knew they were obvious fakes... but I didn't. Wouldn't want to get into trouble for being rude to a customer.

Jennifer, I apologize for the link that I posted yesterday on my message. I found out Bergacci's website couple months ago and I was so closed to buy a bag from them. However, I do research and found out a lot of people got cheated. So I just wanted to share the info. Sorry about that!
