Do you buy fake branded items?

[finchy18]

aaminin ko syempre before bumibili ako kasi cheap.. newbie din kasi eh.. ngeeek!! pero laki ng difference sa quality .. so ngayun orig sana.. liban nlang sa mga auto replacement parts syempre bibili ako ng matibay kahtit japayoki ang brand..

I make a distinction between fake brands and legal 3rd-party alternatives. I don't deal with the former and I do indulge with the latter.

Software: All original commercial and/or legal open source.
DVD sets: All original
Car parts: OEM or legal 3rd-party altrnatives like FRAM parts.
Clothes/Watches/Shoes: I don't give a crap about expensive brand names. I wear a $3 lcd watch, cheap gym shorts and shirts 90% of the time because it's too hot to wear anything else, and a $20 pair of some no name tennis shoes...

The only items we have that may be considered "fake" are our furniture. 99% are custom built. I like my pc desk so, oh well.

class a na japeyks.

depende, kapag pareho lang ang functionality (like software ), i may buy fake. pero kung sa mga damit, sapatos, etc. hindi ako bumibili ng fake.

May pagkakaiba ata ang fake and counterfeit.

Pag counterfeit, the merchandise is the same. Only it was produced without the legal approval of the real owner. Tulad ng software, a counterfeit Windows XP is the same as the original Windows XP.

Pag fake, you are made to believe about the merchandise but in reality you are getting a totally different product. Tulad ng bakla, isa silang fake na babae.

So panalo ka sa counterfeit goods, pero talo ka pag napeke ka.

tawa ako dito.....

I buy both....depende sa pag-gagamitan... yung mga items na once or twice ko lang gagamitin tapos ang mahal nung orig and 100x cheaper yung fake, then I will buy the fake ones, used it once or twice and throw or give them out to somebody......

no need to be a goodie-goody in here.....hehehe I am not that wealthy to splurge my money on everything thats original specially if I am going to use it in short period of time......I am just being practical in here.......

pero sa babae... I make sure na hindi fake ang makuha ko....kahit once or twice ko lang gagamitin.....HARHARHARAHRARHARHAR!!!

No because I don't buy items based on brand alone.

[Monseratto]

besides lets face it, y buy an orig dvd when u'll be watching it..what..at most 3 times? you'll be sick of the movie before the 5th time. unless your a die-hard dvd collector (and has lots of extra money lying around).

Really old thread here. Uso pa debede. Ngayon puro *******s na mas malinaw pa sa debede...

[kha]

NO

OT: Uy si ms.cathy walang magawa, naghukay

[Starex_Gold]

^ Gumagaya sa'yo pag walang magawa

BTT: No.

[_Cathy_]

Never. It's unethical.

[remzam]

Never. I'm only fooling myself knowing it's fake.

Couple of times just to convince myself why I should buy authentic ones.

I don't.

Anyway, I'm shocked at how good the Chinese have become with counterfeit items. I was browsing Shopee and saw designer goods that were almost identical to the original. They even copied the box, dust bag and even tissue wrap! Kulang na lang receipt e It also costs thousands of pesos but a portion of the original price.

Since a lot of brands are now made in China, I wonder if these are ORIGINALS na naipuslit from the factory?

I think the West did a wrong move with outsourcing their production...

the chinese are not really the best, when it comes to counterfeits.
but they probably do it cheaper.

and until we stop buying fakes, and unless someone takes the initiative to sue them, they will probably just keep counterfeitin' ..

[kagalingan]

im not into luxury so hindi ako bumibili peke.

Ay may nabili pala ako peke = battery ng smartphone kasi phaseout na model ko .

naalala ko dati in Singapore...

madaming nagbebenta ng fake watches. you can bring it daw sa service center and guaranteed na even their technicians will not be able to tell na fake sya.

ako naman kasi... with branded stuff, its not just owning one. pati yung service and experience while buying the product ibang iba.

Which country is best at counterfeits? China lang naman mahilig mag fake. Based on my experience, the quality of Chinese counterfeits are getting better and better, I'd say almost close to original. Pati packaging nagaya na rin e
