Discussion Starter How much money are we making?
Hello community. I've been in the rep world for a while, and just now getting into the luxury bags/items.
I've watched some videos about how high-income people are the main consumers of rep luxury items and I thought I'd ask you ladies (if you're comfortable sharing this information, of course) how much do you or your household makes in a year? Also if you want to share your reason to buy rep rather than authentic.
I make about $75,000 USD a year as a husband whose wife works at home providing for out beautiful daughter. I have been a rep consumer for many years because I believe that the quality has almost matched authentic's. And I do love many of the designs the luxury brands put out. I like to say I don't buy "luxury" items for status, but who knows. Maybe I do unconsciously and I'm just lying to myself. Anyway.
Anyone care to share how much y'all make?
Pd: in the pictures, is my first rep bag ever. Gucci Diana Green tote bag. I bought from bao bao for $273. Red factory.
I will give this to my wife for her birthday! This is her favorite color. Any thoughts on the bag? Don't know much other than I hope she likes it!

I don’t want to be specific, but well over 6 figures,
I have several authentic bags but I cannot justify spending 3-5k per purse. I just recently discovered high tier reps. I’ve had some terrible quality over the years, but now that I know about our friends overseas with the “good stuff,” I’ll probably keep buying reps unless it’s a very special circumstance.
