Store history
On this site and others operated by the same individuals, many replica Chanel goods were advertised and sold, such as a brown messenger bag with the CC Monogram (12.5" X 4.5" X9") for $220, a Classic Quilted Flap MM Long (10.5"X2.5"X4.0" ) in white, pink, grey, blue and black also for $220 and a Calfskin Bag (15"X6.0"X15") in white, pink and black for $241. The replica items appearing here were sold with fake authenticity cards and serial numbers.
In March, 2009, a Federal Judge ordered the operators of this website to stop "manufacturing or causing to be manufactured, importing, advertising, or promoting, distributing, selling or offering to sell counterfeit and infringing goods using the Chanel and Louis Vuitton Marks." The Court’s order was ignored by the owners of this website. Accordingly, in August, 2009, the Court held the operators of this website in contempt of Court and ordered all of the operators’ domain names be removed from their control and transferred to Chanel and Louis Vuitton so that they could no longer be used as a means for illegally selling replicas.
Replica information
The reasons why Chanel cares so much about protecting consumers from replica products are reasons everyone should care about.
- Sellers of replica Chanel goods sell poor quality products. You might think you are getting a good deal, but what you are ordering is not anywhere near the level of quality of an authentic Chanel item. Moreover, when the product you purchase quickly starts to break, rip, fade or just fall apart, there will be no one standing behind the product to guarantee your purchase. Chanel stands behind the genuine Chanel products it sells.
- Replica Chanel sellers often do not pay taxes, leading to millions of dollars in lost revenues which could otherwise go to cities and states from the sale of legitimate goods.
- Since selling replica Chanel products is itself illegal, it is common for replica Chanel sellers to often engage in other unlawful conduct, such as identity theft. Also, such sellers often simply do not deliver goods that have been paid for. Some sellers of replica Chanel products may even be part of organized crime networks or terrorist groups, which use profits from the sale of replicas to finance their criminal activities.
