•
Beware
of
huge
bargains:
If
the
pricing
seems
too
good
to
be
true,
it
probably
is.
•
Buy
solid
products:
Check
the
"look
and
feel"
of
goods
—
fake
products
are
often
too
light
and
too
flimsy.
•
Know
your
retailer:
If
in
doubt,
buy
only
from
reputable,
well-known
stores
with
clearly
stated
return
policies.
