Default FAKE CRAP - Ugh!

I just received a package in the mail where I bought (sorta last minute) a Coach keychain for my wife...it arrived, in a FAKE Coach box and I instantly felt duped.

The box was not the "right" shade of Brown...and the Coach logo looked funky...

As I opened the box...I saw where the keychain was simply packaged in a little plastic sleeve of a bag...



The Coach logo on the keychain looks like TIMES NEW ROMAN FONT.

I hate FAKE products...and I hate the fuggin' people who sell CHEAP, FAKE sheit.

LOL! Yeah, it was cheaper than Coach retail...but not so cheap...

In other words...a "genuine" Coach keychain retails for about $45. I paid $25...but it wasn't this year's offering...so I figured it was simply a discontinued item...

Apparently not.

In the end...it's just $25 (+shipping)...it's just the point...the principal is all.

I'm sorry you got duped into thinking you need to spend $25 for something that holds keys (and probably costs $.50 to make-- fake or not).

in fact, made by coach or someone else, they both fake their true value.

Watches, bags, jewelry, etc. I'd never buy except from a confirmed retailer. Too easy to fake it.
