What do these brands have in common?

Rolex, Cartier, Omega,, Tiffany & Co, Chanel, Chanel, Gucci, Dior and Louis Vuitton, Hermes, Hennessy, Remy Martin???.

And the answer is.. China is their biggest market.

China made fakes for your market because when the Americans came to China that's what they asked the Chinese to make. Chinese themselves won't wear that shit.. because its fake, its for westerners and wanna be westerners and you got it.. because you ordered it. Japan was in the same trap until they found their own niches, the generation before you called anything plastic.. Jap Crap

That came back to bite you on the asses bigly and so will be the same with China.

But even then the "fake" market was more in the 80's - 2005, since then China and Asia in general have been clamping down on fake producing companies, sure there's a lot more to be done and you need to realise most of those factories have just moved to other countries.
