A Coach purse? That'll be $30 -- themorningcall.com

Those perusing the tables lining the Pocono Bazaar on Saturday morning had their choice of purses, clothing and jewelry featuring designer names -- only six days after Pennsylvania state troopers raided the ...

Why does it matter if these people are doing this? Any consumer should know that if they are getting a Coach purse for $30 its fake! This to me is rediculas.... People always buy and sell knock offs....Its a way for the less rich people in society to have stuff that looks half nice... GEEZE

The thing is you don't have to be rich to have Coach bags,they are decently priced.They sell wristlets for only $78.I mean really,is that expensive?The fake ones are so silly looking and pathetic.

I wonder if it is illegal to sell them if they sell them as knock offs?

$78, for a wristlet.. that is only able to hold a cell phone & your license? That to me is ridiculous. There are more meaningful things to spend money on. Who cares what the name is anyway.

Yes! I agree.

What a weird way for the article to end.

Cops should be working on more important things. I agree who cares about bootleg anything. They were all made in China anyway.

Coach bags are NOT "decently priced".$300 for a purse is absurd ... and yes, only "rich people" can afford them.

Coach has small hobos for a small price of $158...check out coach.com .That is not bad. My favorite is the tri colored side buckle flap bag...in pink,so pretty.My husband has a very good job,so talk crap all you want about me "get me outta here" but no welfare receivers in my neck of the woods.We all have nice beautiful homes and nice bags.

I'm not quite sure whether you're bragging or complaining about your husband having a very good job. If he does, good for him but some other folks are not as fortunate then as you are I guess.

And besides, we don't care what your favorite HObo bag is...So go spend some more of your husbands good job earnings for MORE HObo bags for $158 or whatever the price may be.

By the way, I am not rich. I live in a modest 4 bedroom/2.5 bath colonial in Luzerne County.

Thank you so much for backing me on the fact that you do not have to be "rich" to afford the quality of brand name bags. They really aren't that expensive and like you said they have great quality in their fabrics.The coach outlet in Tannersville right now has signature wristlets for 44.00.They last a long time thanks to the dust bags!Can I ask what bag you bought.Is it a medium or a large.Great price for either.

THat's not a bad price and you could feel the quality. I don't think the fake ones should be allowed because then people can try to look like they spent money on the real ones and that is just not fair to the many folks who pay for the real ones.

Having a $275 purse does not impress me at all. If I had $275, I sure would not be spending it on a purse.
I buy a purse based on color and compartments..... thats it.
I can care less who makes it and what logo is on it.
And im certainly NOT envious of any woman wearing a coach purse.

Oh, but I would bet once you had a Coach or Burberry in your possession your attitude towards bags would change.They are just so nice to have.They look so nice,smell so nice and you can feel the quality.So what if you spend 150 or 275 you would be hooked.They last a long time too. Each bag has a dust bag.If you can only afford one there are many ways to change their look with attaching a silk scarf around it or add the little key fabs they sell.

If i spend $275 on a friggin purse it better come with a little man inside that will cook and clean and do my grocery shopping.
OMG it's just a purse. I thank you for trying to sell me one but..... I think i will pass.
Actually... i love my purse i have.
and it only cost me $18.99.
I know... i splurged.

Hey Kelly,
Maybe that good job of your husband's is leaving you feeling a little neglected if the smell of an expensive purse is soing it for you...as for me, Hip Hip Hooray, the vendors are back!!!

Then you did have enough money for breakfast!I can think of many things to by with $275.00, you people who have to have that designer purse are a bunch of phonies, you don't buy it because you think it good quality ,you buy to show off,well you don't impress me !

And it just isn't fair that anyone try to look like they are as cool as someone who can afford a better bag? I think a lot of the new Coach bags are ugly--why do I need the world to see I'm a snob who has such low self esteem that I think a bag with logos plastered all over it makes me better than someone else? Target has some beautiful designer bags for under $50 that are very cool...
