Buying a new handbag can be a very troublesome decision. We all want to get a fashion designer purse, but only a few of us can actually afford it. I don’t care what anyone says, these items are exaggeratedly pricy regardless of the quality of the leather, aesthetics or name written on them. Nothing justifies paying a couple thousand dollars for a bag. This is also the reason why so many women have turned their attention towards replica purses; because these items are affordable and have the same look and feel as the genuine ones. The trick is buying them from the right place, from a store that is reputable and reliable. Is Toteandmore.com one of those stores? Continue reading to find out.
The homepage says a completely different story. It is incredibly ugly and unappealing. The whole thing is designed with poorly looking pictures, banners, layouts and color scheme. Honestly, the website doesn’t inspire professionalism and high quality at all. It is rather that type of cheap page where the products are low priced and inferior quality, the type of company that you want to stay away from.
Toteandmore.com carries a wide range of replica products. As the name also suggests, this e-shop carries much more than just handbags. It also offers shoes, jeans, sunglasses and jewelry. It carries everything you could possibly want for looking stylish and chic. On the homepage there are two menu bars. One is displayed on the upper side of the screen and it includes the most important product categories and the second one is in the left side and features the available brands. There is no wide banner located in the center of the page, nothing to get your attention instantly; just a large list of sponsored products with images and prices.
Not only this merchant carries a wide range of products, but it only has numerous brands displayed. These range from the less popular ones like DKNY and Ed Hardy to very famous ones like Dior and Cartier. The very disappointing thing is that there are some errors on the website and when you click on some of these categories you see the text “no records” displayed and no items in that given category. Only a couple of the brands actually include products. Furthermore, the categories that feature items have very few replica bags, about 10 models or so.
The prices are incredibly varied, from replica handbags that cost $300-$400 to ones that cost $20 to $40. I do not understand how these are priced. All seem to be made from real leather. And no matter the material or size some are incredibly pricey and some are very cheap. For instance, some Boyy, Dior and Versace purses are over $300 while some Fendi and YSL models are $30 or less. There are even some Hermes Birkin 30 cm Togo replica bags at $90. So from what I see there is no logic to this. Probably, it depends on the supplier that sells these products to Toteandmore.com. Obviously this site is reselling them to us without having a clear price policy.
What is obvious right from the first moment is that this company does not have professional product pictures. The images presented on its website are copied from several catalogs. The sources seem to be numerous unprofessional suppliers that do not have very good quality photos. The replica bags have only one presentation image that shows just the front side of the item. The inside, sides, back or bottom of the knockoffs aren’t visible. This is a very huge downside because you can’t be certain that what is shows on the site is what will be delivered at your door. Toteandmore.com may change its suppliers and not update the photos so what you will get will look completely different than what you expected.
Not all replicas displayed on this website look authentic. Frankly, most of them are inferior quality, but I managed to come across a very well cloned bag and this is the Dior Sac Diorever En Taurillon. On the page this product is available in several colors like black, beige, blue and light purple and when you compare the photos of the replica with the ones of the original item you discover that these are incredibly similar. Please take a look at the photos enclosed to this review and you will notice that the grainy texture of the black leather, the details of the metallic logo attached to the upper flap part, the shape of the purse and the handles, everything is the same.
On this website there are various types of accepted payment methods. Credit card is just one type of them. Visa is the supported credit card company and it is available for all orders. But there are alternatives as well and these come with a discount. Western Union and Money Gram are those alternative payment options and these get you 8% off from your order total. But no matter how tempting these discounts may be you can’t ignore the fact that credit card payment is the most secure option for paying for your online purchase.
Toteandmore.com is able to ship packages worldwide regardless of the destination country. The thing is that while the replica bags on this website may be cheap the delivery fees surely aren’t. To have a package delivered to USA with regular mail costs $29 which is a lot for a non-expedite shipping method. Basically, you pay $29 for having your package delivered in about 7 business days. For this price other companies offer delivery by Fedex, UPS or DHL.
This merchant offers a 10 days refund and exchange policy to all its customers that have received an unsatisfactory replica handbag. If you are one of these unfortunate gals then you must contact customer service within 10 days from the delivery and request the return information so you can ship the inferior item back and receive a refund or another product instead. The thing is that the returned bag needs to be unused and with the original packing and paperwork. Plus, the return shipping fee must be paid by the customer and the refund will be issued only after the package is delivered at the seller’s warehouse.
Toteandmore.com believes that the most simplistic communication channel is also the most effective one. This being said, the company offers customer support only by email address. To get a hold of the company and find out the answers to your inquiries you can contact the merchant by email. The site does not have a professional business email address, but a Hotmail one. This type of email account is highly unreliable and unprofessional. It is very disappointing to see that the company does not care about customer service that much and that it does not invest more into supplying easy to reach and reliable communication channels like live chat or a phone line.
It is almost impossible to find a trustworthy replica handbags store that offers good quality product and services and Toteandmore.com is a living proof of this. The website is very mediocre. It has a poorly designed page, low quality product pictures copied from several catalogs, pricey shipping and unresponsive customer services. The things that are most appealing about this site are the large selection of products, the diversified payment methods and the 10 days refund policy.

Hey Hannah! I’m on the hunt for a dupe of the Gucci snake bag – any ideas?
Hi Hannah,
I absolutely love your blog and wondered if you would mind talking to me about the whole concept behind your work. I am currently in my final year of university in London and I am looking into counterfeit luxury products and your feedback would be so appreciated!
Thank you
Mollie
Hey Mollie, What would you like to know?
Ciao 🙂
I had a few questions just about how to analyse the bags and how you got into the industry. Would it be possible to email them over to you?
Many thanks
Mollie
Hi Mollie, I sent you an email.
Ciao 🙂

Hi Hannah,
I love your blog and I was wondering what you think of voguekingbag.cn ?
I’m looking at purchasing a bag but I want to be sure that its trustworthy before I buy.
Thank you!,
Natasha
Hey Natasha, This site has it all: Multiple images of their products, Wide range of payment methods and they also promise 14 days refund in case you want to return the bag. Seems like a very good deal.
Ciao 🙂
Hello Hannah I really love your blog, but could you make a review about this online store repbeast.ru ? They have a lot of video review on YouTube but I would know your opinion about it , cause you are the Queen of replica e-commerce reviews .
Lovely regards
Mary
Hey Mary, Here I explain why I prefer not to write reviews for Russian (.ru) websites. Repbeast.ru return policies look very convincing, but they don’t mention refund as possibility of resolving a problem with an order. I checked out their Louis Vuitton handbags section and the pictures are gorgeous. The only thing that worries me is that their prices are extremely cheap. On the other hand, if you buy a knockoff for under 50 bucks and it’s not up to your expectations – the loss is not so great.
Ciao 🙂
Bao,how does your China business ship handbags, after receiving western union. Usps or ups?
I just took a look at ‘designerbound.com’.
Their ‘Birkins are selling for almost $2,000. I know how pricey the real Birkins. But I have never seen a replica site charging over $1,000 for a replica handbag.
What is the difference between this replica bag, and the many, many other replica Birkin sites I’ve seen over the years. What is that difference?
I also have three ‘Birkin inspired’ bags as well. Several years ago I was looking for the Birkin like I have been looking for the Chloe Marcie style.
Hi Lin,
You’re making some pretty strong arguments without any actual proof. I can’t say for sure about why all these things happen, however, and in my opinion, your reply sounds a bit paranoid?
I forget the word I want to use. If I remember I’ll go back and fix it.
My thoughts were these sites, because they are selling illegally, sound too good to be true and an agent of the for these things, or whatever you want to call, closes them down. I don’t know how or why this is all done. I just know I have gone from this site to selling sites and in less than a week, sometimes even the next day, the site which got a great comment here got shut down.
I have purchased three Chloe influenced handbags in the past month. Now, because it does not say Chloe anywhere, these sites are legal. I am happy because I have to be,with a beautiful looking and feeling leather handbag. I love the styles of these bags.
Not one person in my circle of friends, family and acquaintances wouldn’t know a Chloe bag from a Birkin. Well, maybe, but, no I doubt it.
I am no where near the ‘tax bracket’ to make such purchases. Heck, even buying this good look alikes is a bit of ‘biting off’ for me. I do love style, and fashion. I love all things beautiful, including other beauty products.
I would, if given the opportunity, to see how close my Chloe lookalike to a replica and see if anyone could tell the difference. I do not ask people to open their handbags so I can see the label. Yes, Carrie Bradshaw loved labels, too. And in SATC, somehow a woman writing only one column a week for a second rate newspaper could afford to buy ONLY labels. Yes, I am jealous. I’d love to buy the real thing. Practicality, unfortunately keeps knocking on my door and wagging it’s wee finger at me, and forces the, yuck, reality.
I am quite sure I have gone on a tangent. Not sure just how far off the beaten path of this particular article, but there you have it.
Hi Hannah,
Its, me Renee again.
(oy) I am so frustrated. Every time I see a good rating on you site, the site has been closed down, hacked. I don’t know how these things work.
What is even crazier is these site were reviewed a few days ago, maybe a week ago!
I’d like to hear from any other fashionista’s out there on this site who are having the same issues.
Just looking for a Chloe Marcie.
Renee, the reason those websites have been shut down or hacked is because the owner of this site and that other site Spotbags.cr are using gullible and naive women to give them the names of their replica bag vendors, so that they can get the websites shut down, and therefore eliminate the competition for Pursevalley. Think about it, whenever someone recommends a website, it is almost always shut down, but somehow magically, Pursevalley is never shut down! Because, they are eliminating the competition so that people will purchase from that garbage website Pursevalley, which is kinda genius if I might add. I believe the owner of Spotbags.cr name is Sophia or something like that, and apparently she has been doing this same song and dance for quite some time now. These “replica review” sites like this one does not truly exist to help people find affordable high quality replicas. They exist to get people to divulge the websites where they purchase their replica bags from, and then turn around and get those websites shut down so that it is less competition for PurseValley. Sad but true
Hey Lin, even if I had a ‘magical’ power to shut down/hack any other site – I wouldn’t do it because it’s illegal. The fact that your offensive comment is published on my site (and approved by me) is the proof that I am here no to praise purse valley, but to give possibility for buyers to ask questions and express their experience.
I gave not so complimenting review to designerbound.com store, and it’s alive and well till now. On the other hand Hotsalehandbags.co.uk got bad review from me and now it’s closed by Louis Vuitton. Do you think I can influence big brands and domain registrars as well? Your arguments don’t hold water. My guess is that most of the closed sited were committing fraud by receiving customers money and not sending any merchandise. A site can’t keep doing this for long time and eventually changes domain and tries to rip off more customers.
Ciao
Well stated,.Lin. And while Pursevalley has the best bags, their customer service is the worst. I ordered Christmas gifts, on Thankgiving day, and my order STI’LL hasn’t shipped. AND, I had to make FOUR trips to the Western Union store to change the name of the recipient. This was my fifth time orduring and each time has been worse that the previous.
Hi Hannah!
I enjoy your blog 🙂
I REALLY would love a Speedy 30 Damier Ebene, but the $1,000 price tag on the authentic is too much. I am willing to spend up to $500. Do you have a recommendation on where to buy the best replica? Or would you suggest buying a preloved authentic?
xo
Hey Brooke, When price difference is just a couple hundred dollars between replica and (as you so ingeniously said) preloved authentic bag, then you better of with used purse.
Ciao 🙂
