No More Bargains in Chinatown?



This may be a thing of the past before too long.


All those great knock off watches, $8 each.


The crackdown on counterfeit goods has taken a serious turn.


It won't be as much fun to go to Chinatown any more.


No more Fendi bags for $25.


No more fake Cartier watches to fool my wealthy friends.


No elegant ersatz Movado to go with my "little" black dress.


No more Breitlings to give to the guys on their birthdays.


No more cheap Rolexes to leave in the surgeon's lounge to see how long it takes for them to disappear.

But saddest of all, no chance now for me to have the fake Birkin bag that I covet.




Dim sum instead, anyone?
