Handbags the girls go mad for them on eBay especially Louis Vuitton


I came across this company yesterday ... click here... they are based in Florida and sell top designer make ladies bags and accessories at wholesale prices .

Now I must admit I am tempted to experiment again ...you see I just can't stop myself ... The prices are very tempting ...but my one niggling doubt is whether they are genuine or not .

I did some research on Louis Vuitton bags and they go like hot cakes ( sorry American readers ..hot cakes is a British expression) ..The UK bidders can't get enough of them ..

So I am tempted to buy a couple ..... What do you think ??..Help me make a decision here cyber friends ..

Yes or no ... let me know in the comments ...or let me know if you are tempted as well :-)

incidentally ...Louis Vuitton..is a great name for the Fat fingers site ..loads of people spell it wrong .

But your'e wrong Rob. We American's are very familiar with the term Hot Cakes.

Those of us in our 40's vividy remember the American TV Show in the 60's called "Green Acres" and the "viddles" Lisa Douglas used to cook up to the shagrin of her poor husband "Oliver".

To get a better look at Lisa's famous "Hotscakes" and their doughy cousin "Vaffles" browse on over to

then come right back here.

Here's a quote from the site.

"Her hotcakes were so tough that they came in handy as backup shingles when the roof needed repair"

You guys are funny...

Hotcakes is recognized in the States...like, something is "selling like hotcakes." Port of call too is known too.

Remember though - we used to be a British colony over here and so many of our phrases, words, and terms had their genesis with England - we liked 'em so we kept 'em.

Of course, we like other countries' languages too...French, Spanish, to name a couple. For instance, deja vu...I'll bet a lot of the younger people here think that's an American phrase, and have no idea we actually borrowed it from the French. I could go on and on.

American English is ever expanding. If there's not a word for something, we'll make it up, and oila! all of a sudden, it's in the dictionary. The most recent word that comes to mind is "truthiness" as coined by Ken Colbert (a political satire comedian over here). It refers to, in essence, a statement given that has no basis in fact or truth, but by virtue of simply saying it, it is the truth. (This is very political in origin.)

And, would you believe - this word became the number 1 new word for 2005!!!!

HI there, I have actually been considering buying from the same site you are mentioning. I believe it is ok to sell them on ebay as long as you do not represent them as authentic. There are tons on ebay that are not authentic. I was actually looking for some replicas to sell on ebay as well and I am seriously considering that same site for my ordering.
