there might already be a topic om this, but i wanna know: how do you tell the difference between a fake & real bracelet? because some ppl are selling fake ones pinch.gif \

when i say fake, i mean that NO MONEY whatsoever goes to cancer research. isn't that terrible? sad.gif

You can't.

Which is why you should just buy 'em from the site or from Nike stores.

I got one because I inherited it from my friend, which she bought at a Nike store.

I think there's a 'Made in China' thing in the inside.

I know because I have a fake one and a real one. (The fake one I got for free.)

moved to the lounge.

The fake ones probably do say livestrong...bgut that's horrible, the whole point is to support cancer. And it's not like they're expensive, authorized dealers are only allowed to sell them for no more than 1 USD

i think the fake ones do say livestrong, just in a distorted way probably so most people wont notice it and the real ones are $1, the fake ones are $3.

OF COURSE it says livestrong on the fake one, what's the point of making a fake one and ripping us off if it's so obvious?

... Wait.. there's fake ones? It doesn't relaly matter, does it? Aren't the real ones inexpensive anyways? It's funny.. I never realized that people at my school actually wore them. And the last week before winter break, I noticed some people wearing them. They don't really look that great, but hey, it's supporting a good cause, isn't it?

I still think there's no point in getting fake ones since the real ones are inexpensive.

Uh, do we need to personally know someone that has cancer in order to wear this bracelet? No, we do not. We can just wear it for the support of the research.
