She kept coming back and accusing everyone of "Hating" her. No one is hating, just trying to educate.
I never said that you told anyone not to buy it. I was simply stating that it could have been said better than:

The only reasons that I don't buy fakes are:

1. They support child slave labor in foreign countries
2. Some of the seller support terrorism
3. They will NOT last like the real thing at all
4. It's against the law

That said, I have seen some really really good fakes where it's hard to tell the difference. However, the one you posted is not one of them, I'm afraid. There are so many "tells" right off the bat just from that one picture I know not everyone can afford the real thing, but something like this can be bought used or you can just save up for it. It really is worth it to get the authentic item, if you put them side by side you'll see the difference immediately.

Posting info is one thing, but saying that the purse on the site isn't a good fake simply was unrespectful.
