That counterfeit items are seized! Noone needs them, rather to buy a real with a reasonable price whether it is a watch or a piece of clothing.

I don't really understand the "buy a fake" mentality either. So you can get mugged for a "Hermes" bag or a "Rolex" watch? I'd rather get a genuine and original that few people know and can identify...and nobody will want to kill you to take it from you.
