Nan shows off her payday fake designer clobber haul from Turkey – but trolls say they'd ‘put them straight in the bin'
TURKEY has become one of the biggest destinations for those looking to snap up designer fakes on the cheap. The 2 One nan decided to go wild after getting paid whilst in Turkey Credit: tiktok/@littlelisa_48 2 The gran napped up a mega haul of fake designer gear, including replicas of Nike and Hugo Boss Credit: tiktok/@littlelisa_48 A quick four hour flight could land you in a bustling market flogging 'Gucci belts' for £3 and Louis 'Fuitton' handbags for £20. So it comes as no surprise one gran, only known as Lisa, went totally wild after she got paid during her holiday in The nan, who works for the NHS, snapped up a mega haul of fake designer gear, including To treat herself without forking out a fortune, Lisa purchased trendy Nike trainers in black, as well as several purses. read more on fashion One of these - a replica of Although Lisa already boasts a huge collection of bags, the bargain deal was too good to sleep on, she chuckled in The monster haul, posted under the username @ Another gift her eldest grandson will be treated to is the viral and sought-after Palm Angels T-shirt in white - which on average retails for around £100. Most read in Fabulous With the grandson's birthday to look forward to, it seems the nan went all out - as she also purchased fake Louis Vuitton trainers with faux leather detailing and the iconic logo. In the clip, Lisa revealed that she also couldn't resist the same trainers but in a baby version. My favourite outfit has been labelled 'frumpy & ageing' by cruel fashionistas, but screw them… I'll be buried wearing it ''Baby LV, so cute I had to get them.'' The epic haul was indeed a successful one, as the Brit nan went to show off her brand new ''designer'' bags and wallets - more than a dozen in total. ''When you get paided [paid] while in Turkey,'' Lisa wrote in Is it Illegal to Buy 'Designer' Dupes in Turkey? In Turkey, buying counterfeit goods is generally considered illegal. If you buy a counterfeit product for personal use, you're unlikely to be prosecuted against - unless your purchase involves a significant quantity or the intent to resell. Customs authorities have the power to stop and seize counterfeit goods entering or leaving Turkey. That means they can stop you upon your return home and seize any designer dupes you've bought on holiday. 'Where did you buy these? So I can avoid' Although the clip was posted just a day ago, it's already taken the internet by storm - but for all the wrong reasons. As close to 250k people viewed the video, almost 2,000 gave it a like and 160 flooded to comments to share their brutal verdict on the cut-price items. One wasn't impressed by the quality and joked: ''The crocs look like those real or cake videos.'' Another chimed in: ''Where did you buy these? So I can avoid.'' ''Grandson finna be looking fly in this new gear,'' someone else chuckled. ''If my nan bought me any of this it's getting dashed straight in the bin,'' a fourth added, as Lisa had the perfect response. ''Just shows how ungrateful you are,'' she hit back.
