to further hijack this thread....I'm reading a book about the Camora in Naples.
their one of the three big mafias in Italy. The knock off purse black market is gazzilions of dollars. The purses are made by real artisans and the cost is peanuts while they turn around and sell them for huge profits. My friend's wife used to work for Prada and she told me that the knock offs are so good that the salespeople couldn't tell a difference and they had to sent upstairs to a lab where they would look at the stuff under microscope. People would come in all the time and were shocked to find out they had a phoney.
