Does Superfake mean super cheap?

Superfake doesn't mean super cheap as are often handmade, use more expensive materials and are difficult to tell apart from the pricey originals.

At Jakarta's Mangga Dua market, dubbed "Hong Kong Alley" by some locals, the top superfake bags come with real luxury prices.

Copies of the luxury industry's most sought-after handbags from French fashion house Hermès start above $1,000 and stretch up to $10,000 for a replica of a Kelly crocodile-skin bag.

The superfakes might be a serious investment, but they still cost 10 per cent of their genuine counterpart.

A crocodile-skin Kelly — the most coveted and rarest of all Kelly bags — can easily cost $100,000.

And that's only if you’re invited by the brand to make a purchase.
