Who doesn’t love sales? Especially handbags sales. Every woman on this planet adores shopping designer purses at a smaller price. The thing is, when you are buying replica bags, the price is always a bargain. Maybe this is why most replica online stores try to get our attention with names like Hotsalehandbags.co.uk. Still, when you are ordering products online, price shouldn’t be the only selection criteria. The reputability of the store is also essential. This is why; below we will find out how reliable Hotsalehandbags.co.uk really is.
Hotsalehandbags.co.uk does not impress that much with its design. It is a simple, airy and common looking page. I am not sure how are we supposed to believe that this is a reputable merchant when it is February and the site still has the Christmas promotion banner on the homepage with the message “Christmas is coming”. All self-respecting online companies update their promotions in a timely fashionable manner. Not changing your Christmas banner for two months is simply unacceptable. As I was saying earlier, the site is not that great looking. It has a bulky top menu with buttons for the most popular brands, a considerably long brands list in the left side of the page, a static wide banner and a few sponsored products- nothing too fancy or too impressive.
The company manages to satisfy all preferences and tastes when it comes to luxury designer purses. The collection is quite large and diversified. Over a dozen famous bags names are found on the site. Every single one includes hundreds of different designs. One thing is for sure- browsing these replicas isn’t such a piece of cake. Even though, the categories are divided in sub-collections which makes things a lot easier, the lack of and Advanced Search option is definitely a huge disadvantage.
As expected, the prices are in GBP. The company targets mostly customers based in UK even though it offers worldwide delivery and the products are dispatched from China. To be more appealing for its British shoppers, the prices are displayed by default in pounds, but in the right upper part of the screen there is the option of selecting a different currency. Regarding the prices of the replica bags, these are pretty affordable. The majority of the items cost about 100 GBP to 200 GBP. Only a couple smaller models are under 100 GBP.
Having good product picture is something very important for a replica handbags website. An e-shopper can’t actually see, touch and inspect the products before placing the order so for him seeing high quality photos of the actual replicas is essential for being sure that he is making a good purchasing decision. For instance, when a website like Hotsalehandbags.co.uk lists most images copied from the original websites and from numerous other catalogs this makes us doubt that it will send us what we see in the pictures.
Hotsalehandbags.co.uk is that kind of online site that tries to convince you into buying its replica purses by offering free delivery, regardless of the destination country. Of course, there are numerous situations in which this sounds like a terrific offer, but most often it also depends on what this type of delivery implies. In this case, the packages are sent with Hongkong post which takes about 14-21 business days to arrive and in some cases the tracking information is updated once a week. For me, any delivery that takes more than 7 business days is totally unacceptable.
What can I say? This company is not that keen on offering customer orientated payment services to its customers. Its available payment options are pretty limited. When you place an order on this page you can only pay with Visa and Mastercard. There is no option of paying with Paypal, Western Union or Bank Wire. Usually, accepting only card payments isn’t an issue, but the problem with this site is that its payment processing page isn’t secure for online transactions.
Funny thing about the website’s refund policy- you can’t return the product if you simply do not like it. The replica bags can be shipped back for a refund only if you notice any quality defects before the first 7 days from the delivery run out. Also, there is a 14 days exchange policy which says that you can send the defective or unsatisfactory purse back for a replacement, but all the return shipping fees must be paid by you. The company does not say if it offers a free repairs warranty.
I just love the fact that on the top right part of the page there is a Live Chat button that says “available 24/7”. Still when you click it, it redirects you to the Contact Us page. Relax, there’s nothing there that could get you in touch with a Live agent. There is just a Contact Form where you can type in your questions and send them in. The company does not offer a phone number or email address.
I couldn’t recommend Hotsalehandbags.co.uk to anyone as for me this site is the opposite of a reputable replica purses online store. The company may offer affordable prices, a large collection of bags and free worldwide delivery, but most of the products don’t have pictures of its actual knockoff, it takes only card payments, the shipping is very slow and the return policy has numerous unfair conditions.

Hey Embree, this site looks like a sister of spothandbags
Check out my review. It seems legit, although I didn’t bought anything from there yet.
Ciao 🙂
Do not purchase from this website!
I ordered 2 bags, one of which was a Prada. It took ages for them to advise on tracking number and when they finally do, the Prada was out of stock. I requested for a refund for the Prada and to go ahead with the 2nd bag I ordered which was a Chanel. They the told me that they don’t do refunds to a credit card and to pick another bag out of their catalogue.
I had to do so and when the bags finally arrived, it was different from the ones I ordered!!
I am out of pocket of more than 700 Australian dollars and getting sub standard bags! Now I’m kicking myself for trying them out…
DO NOT BUY FROM THIS SITE!
Chanel bag has a broken zip & LV clutch has terrrible noticeable & loose stiching
(unlike picture on their site)
I am trying to return for full refund & they will not provide me with their DHL account number for return.
I paid aporoximately $445 Australian dollars for the 2 bags & if i return by DHL
at my expense (as requested by them)
It will cost me $200!
CHEAP BAGS & SERVICE FOR NOT CHEAP PRICE YOU PAY EVEN FOR REPLICA BAGS!
Hi Dee,
Do let us know if you’re able to return and get a refund.
Just like you after many emails claiming to get in touch with my bank for fraud they finally replied and sent a tracking number (arriving Tuesday via DHL)
However I am expecting the bag to be crap and will want to return it as soon as I receive it.
Hi Esmeralda,
I sent bags bags back (at my expense) to a China address as advised by Hotsalehandbags.co.uk.
My bank had already refunded my money into my account which I was unaware of but very grateful for.
I would NOT have received a refund from this fraudelent site.
I believe this site has been closed down?
How did you go Esmeralda?
I purchased a Chanel bag & Louis Vuitton clutch from this site… quality is definetly not of a high standard & dust bags provided are absoluteky rubbish!
Waste of $445 AUD.
Only time i received a reply email from them was when I informed them i had reported transaction to my bank due to suspecting fraudulent site.
I would NOT recommend using this site!
Awaiting reply re. return & refund?
If only i had read your review before i purchased bags…
Hi.
Are you able to recommend a site for buying Chanel bags? I’m looking for the Chanel Boy medium.
Hi.
I didn’t check the site only after I placed order and kept checking for update and nothing comes out then I looked for reviews. Big mistake but learned my lesson. This website is probably a scam as I didn’t receive anything yet.
Hi Hannah,
I’ve just placed an order, however when it came to pay it said “error” and that the payment had failed.
But then I noticed that they still took the money from my account whitouth sending any email confirmation or proof of purchasing.
