She should have taken a dump on the American flag. Then she would be hailed as a honorary member of the imaginary 99%.

Have at it!

I can’t believe Clint is letting his family loose tot he public eye.. they look like a bunch of ‘entitled’ little punks with silver spoons up their noses. Dina came from humble beginnings and so did Clint. sad to see their progeny so warped and on display for money. they use to call them freak shows I think. ;-)

I've purchased authentic designer bags from ebay at a fraction of the price.

A good friend of mine has an eBay store. She specializes in “vintage” handbags, shoes, boots and coats (“vintage” meaning as in not new : ), ) but good quality and by known designers. She mostly looks for 60’s and 70’s stuff but will do new stuff if it’s the right find for the right price.

She actually does quite well. She finds most of what she sells at second hand stores, flea markets and yard sales. She’s very selective in what she buys for resale and is pretty knowledgeable about how to detect knock offs and sometimes comes across incredible finds (like the brand new Coach bag with the tags still on it for $10), although she has to sift through a lot of junk to find them and comes across quite a few knock offs. Interestingly she sells and ships a lot of boots to Australia and a good bit of the funkiest shoes and coats to countries in the Middle East.

But even if she’s 99% sure an item is authentic, she’s very careful not to say so just in case. She’ll list as “appears to be” or “tag says”. She’ll take lots of pictures of any of the identifying labels and markings and let the buyer decide if it’s the real deal. She told me eBay can get quite testy if they catch you selling knock offs as authentic and one time some designer brand (it might have been Kate Spade) had eBay take one of her listings down because they suspected it was a forgery. IIRC they even sent her a cease and desist letter.

I agree with Mrs Wbill about really cheap goods and knock offs and “it’s better to spend a little money and get something of quality, than be a penny wise and a pound foolish” but then I’ve gotten some really nice handbags from Target and Kohls that have lasted me for many years. The most expensive handbag I ever bought was from a department store. It was a black genuine all leather bag that I bought to go with a really nice black leather coat my husband bought me for Christmas about 12 years ago, I think I paid about $70 for it and at that price and I thought I was being uber extravagant spending so much money. Twelve years later, the neither the husband nor the coat are around anymore but I still have and use that handbag.

There are many of women with a lot of money who use a new bag a few times, throw it in the closet and dig it out to resell it on ebay when the new season is upon them. I purchased a Gucci bag in mint condition from an NBA wife who periodically emptied out her closet.

If I had taken a size 11 shoe I would have had designer shoes galore.

BF bought me a fake Pravda at the flea market for $10 (he actually thought it was real!)

Drop him. You can buy a recent issue of real Pravda at any international newstand for a couple of bucks.
