My wife came back with more bags than a Tesco checkout last December. There's a shop called Original Fakes (or is it Genuine Fakes) that does copies of Radley, Gucci etc, and another close by called Glimpses of India.

They are a couple of hundred yards apart on either side of the Dona Alcina in Candolim.

My wife and daughter found a good selection of bags at Harrisons in Candolim near the Panjim road T Junction.

Radleys off the shelf started around 600 rps

They will make from a photograph in a couple of days, (cant help you with prices)

My missus wants a Chloe bag, she said the name of it but I can't remember. It's got a huge padlock on the front anyway.

Do you reckon I could pick one up when I go to Candolim? Or is it best to get them made up?

On another note, would I be able to get a wallet made up for myself? Prefer to just carry a card wallet when at work, and would love to get one made up :)

My wife bought seven bags at Genuine Fakes January 06 and is intending to buy more this December! Everyone in her work have commented on how nice they are and want to give her orders for our next visit.

goanmad that's the one! Cheers for that :)
Anyone know if I could get one of them then? Of is it mainly just the leather work that they copy?

I bought a Chloe Paddington while there at Xmas, its a lovely copy and is of the softest leather. They had them in all the shops so I don't think you will have any problems finding one.

Hi
I've just looked at the Chloe Paddington bag - it's fabulous (and is now on my shopping list for when I go) :love2 .

Do the copies have the strip of leather across the padlock, the same as the originals?

What sort of price would I be looking at, in say Touch of Leather, Diva or Original Fakes?

Thanks
Polly
