Most online replica stores accept credit card, Western Union and Bank Transfer as payment methods. And I am sure you have noticed that usually fake bags websites insist on the promotional advantage of paying by Western Union: you get a 10%-20% discount. How could anyone say „no” to such an offer? I mean, this is the main reason we choose to buy replica purses. We want to save up as much money as possible.
The catch is that the over-praised Western Union discount isn’t really a discount. It is just a way of compensating for the Western Union transfer fees you must pay when you send money using this service. This fee is usually about 10%-20%, depending if you pay online or at a Western Union office and if you pay cash or with a card. And guess what? The Western Union fee seems to have pretty much the same value as the discount offered by replica handbags stores? Is it just a coincidence? I think not! It is just a way of tricking you into choosing the most convenient payment form. And, I mean, the most convenient payment form for them.
You see, Western Union is the perfect payment option for fake purses online sites. It is risk free. Once you pay with Western Union, you have no way of getting you money back if you change your mind or if you are scammed. You are at the company’s mercy. If the company is a reputable one then if you want to cancel the order before it is shipped or if you receive the package and you are unhappy with the product then they will consider your refund request and give your money back. But this very rarely happens, and it happens in their terms.
You know what they say, better safe than sorry. If this is the first time you buy a bag from an Internet store then it is better to choose a safer payment option like credit card or Paypal. Both the bank that handles your credit card account and Paypal are very dedicated to protecting every transaction you make. If they think that a fraudulent transaction took place or that you were deceived in any way by a company then they will refund your money.

Hi Hannah –
Thank you for recommending AAAHandbags to me. They had the bag I wanted, but only accept Western Union. After reading your article about not using Western Union for lack of buyer protection, I decided not to order from them. Can you recommend another great site that accepts credit card or Paypal?
Thanks so much!!!
Hey Tracie, any payment method has its drawbacks. Of course, credit cards payments or paypal offer high protection level, because you can dispute the payment if the item you receive doesn’t match description. Less and less replica sellers offer credit card payment option. I don’t know any good site that accepts paypal.
Ciao 🙂
Hi Hannah I have never bought a fake replica handbag before. Every review or site gives different advice. outdoorcleats.com
Hi Hannah
have you heard or bought any purses from ITPURSE.CN or DESIGNERDISCREET.TO?
Hey Juliana, I didn’t had a chance to order from those stores, but I noticed that DESIGNERDISCREET.TO have good reviews on The Purse Queen blog.
Ciao 🙂
Hi guys, Thank you for this blog. I was about to buy two bags and pay via Western Union, but now I don’t think I would. Do you know anything about these people chanellove.x.yupoo.com or mary.ba.store.6 on Instagram? Thank you!
Hanna DD only takes western union. Can u tel me what to do
Hi Hannah I have never bought a fake replica handbag before. Every review or site gives different advice. Where one site is recommending a company the other us trashing it for poor quality etc. Could you recommend the best site for replica LV monogram bags?
Hi Hannah,
I love your website. Everything you want to know about replicas can pretty much be found here. It’s awesome! Base on this Western Union article I was just curious how you choose to pay for you items? Credit Card?
Hey Joy, it makes sense to pay for your first order in an online store with your card, because it grants you extra protection from unscrupulous sellers (you have possibility to call your bank and dispute the charge if you never received your handbag). Once you see that the seller is good, you can pay with other payment methods, like western union. Usually replica stores give discounts for these kind of payments.

Hi Hannah,
Quick question..I placed an order with fallin2fashion4.com and they want 310 $ for shippment,
for three handbags, bracelet and a wallet. shipment to Germany.
I think that’s a crazy amount, since Bagaholics want a 40 $ flat fee for shipping.
Thank you very much!!!! xx
Hey Stelli, You’re right! $310 for shipping of parcel is unreasonably high.
Ciao 🙂
ok thank you!! have you ever ordered with them..they have an amazing selection but I’ve only ordered from Bagaholics till now..and they dont take credit cards
Hey Stelli, I’ve never ordered from fallin2fashion4.com
Ciao 🙂
Same with shopreplicas.cn! They have a great website, take your money by western union only and then stoprresponding to emails!
Beware*** Chicc Chanel has scammed a lot of people, they take your money and then stop responding. Do not order from them
Hi Hannah,
do you happen to have chic-c email address? Their website has been taken down by Chanel and I need to get in touch with them!
Thank you very much
Hey Fran, no I don’t have it. Haven’t they sent you a confirmation email after you ordered? Maybe they use hotmail or gmail account to contact customers.
Ciao 🙂
I hope your impressive handbag network can help me.
I live in England and have just come back from Afghanistan ( I was a doctor working in Helmand Territory ); having been away for about 6 years I am thankful to be home.
Unfortunately, having been gone for so long, I have lost contact of my handbag supplier Jacky from China. The last time I corresponded with him was when he had a site called ProfitCome, and that was in 2008. I sadly no longer have the means to contact him.
He had the most marvellous Mulberry collection!!! I would love to get ahold of him again.
If you know his whereabouts – may I ask you to please pass his contact details to me, or alternatively, give him my details. Hopefully he may remember me and know I am legit—-I’m not with the ‘Purse Police’ !!!!
Eva, please take pity on me!!! I’ve been wearing combat boots for the last 6 years with no pretty accessories. If you could possibly help me I would be very grateful indeed.
Thank you very much.
Kind regards,
Charlotte French
Hey Charlotte, I’m not Eva. I read her site from time to time. Sorry, but I’m not familiar with Jacky from China.
Ciao 🙂
Hannah, thank you so much for your awesome blog!
I purchased a Dior bag from shopreplicas.cn and it’s been 3 weeks and i still don’t have it. They said the bag was out of stock and then they promised to ship it this week and so far nothing, and i had sent several email and they have not answered any. Not sure, have i been ripped off? Do you know this website?
Hey Mary, I don’t know this website. What payment method did you use?
Ciao
Unfortunately Western Union. I had already resigned to the fact that most likely i have been scammed. Is there a way to let other people know that these guys are scammers, i bet you they get a lot of people like me, they have a great website.
Hey Mary, Tell them that you will file official complaint to Western Union. This won’t help you to get the money back, but maybe those idiots from shopreplicas.cn will start responding.
ARGH, these scammers make me so angry 🙁
Hannah, do you think I should report them?
lifewire.com/how-do-i-report-internet-scams-fraud-2487300
Hey Mary, If they got your payment, didn’t send you anything and don’t reply to your emails to try and solve this problem – of course they deserve to be reported.
Ciao 🙂
