i haven't read most of the thread, but all i can say is it's up to the the person buying it.
If you want to buy fake that are so well made that people can't tell the difference, go for it, flaunt it all you want.
It's your decision to buy it, and your decision to flaunt it. If you want to buy real, then buy it and flaunt it.
At the end of the day you know you didn't buy the real thing, but there's no need to justify whether or not it's real or not as long as you're comfortable with it.
I like to buy legit cause it pays for people's salary, the sales person, the designer, the producer, and transporter and it does make me feel good about myself,that i made enough to buy it legit. I will keep on buying the things i like so the designers can make more money so they have the motivation to design new items that i will like.
It's a free country, do what makes you feel good. If you like vintage items at value village go for it. I don't like the old vintage look. If you like to buy the fake stuff, go for it and pretend all you want. However, I like the whole fresh clean look, i like to wear new stuff. You can call me a consumer, materialistic whore, so what? I probably am, as long as i can support that habit in a legal way then it's alright.

It's like the whole downloading music problem right now.
You can download music for free or you can go buy the CD. If you want them to continue to produce good music then buy the good music. If you want people to stop producing music then sure download all you want because soon, there will be no one willing to make music.

Yes, i'm making the an assumption that 99% of people are money driven and will produce because of the monetary increase they will receive.
