We are receiving many spam emails selling "branded" replicas on the internet.
A good point about these spam mails is that they have been honest about the product. However, we do not see the point of buying it over the internet since it is replica and there is a question if the manufacturer is legally licensed to reproduce it. In most cases, branded goods manufacturer would not allow replicas unless there is a proper license - so as to ensure quality for the brand name.
In some countries such as China or Thailand, it is common to see
replicas being sold on the street. Some of these really look very
genuine and could hardly be differentiated just by the amatuer's eye.
It will only make the difference once you start using it. Branded
watches are not just good for their looks but they have remarkable
reliability and accuracy, which is something not found in replicas.
Ofcourse, there are other products such as branded bags such as Louis Vuitton bags. There will also be difference in the material used and reliability.
In any case, I think it is safer to purchase replicas directly from a physical shop rather than online, esp. during a vacation tour in some countries. The replicas sold on the internet isn't cheap either (see below), and could probably be one of the "better" replicas. Note that we didn't imply "licensed" replicas due to lack of information.
