If they have half a brain, they'll sell the rip-offs as knock-offs and the police won't catch on.

It never ceases to amaze me that there are people (both women AND men) who are stupid enough to pay those exorbitant prices.

Obviously if you are rich enough to afford that stuff it doesn't mean that you are intelligent enough not to buy it.

Don't have to pay those exorbitant prices on e-bay. They are very affordable.

More likely they're being sold out of stalls at Waikiki's tacky International Marketplace.

I wear what I like...Chanel, Dior, Juicy Couture, etc.
I have a thing for handbags, shoes, and accessories.

However, I am a very smart shopper and most of my stuff I got for 50% or more off. Plus they seem to last forever.
I'd say that makes me very intelligent!

Why would someone want knock offs...That's a rhetorical statement.

I have to admit, the book was one I couldn't put down once I started.
What a self centered B*tch she was.
