How to Find the Highest Quality Dupes on DHGate (2023 Guide)

1. Set up a price filter minimum of $150.00.
2. Use the search phrase "10A handbags".
3. Check the quality of the handbag in customer review photos.
4. If there are no customer review photos, ask the seller for real photos.
5. Find more high quality dupe listings in the "Picks for You" section.

Let's go into more detail below.

1. Set up a price filter minimum of $150.00.

Setting your price filter to a minimum of $150 will remove all of the mid-quality fakes from your search results. The highest quality fakes you can find on DHGate will start at $150...

Tap the filter icon at the top right corner...

Then, tap "Retail Price", enter $150 in the "minimum" field, and then tap "Done" to update the results.

Since pricey replicas are not abundant on DHGate, you may have to scroll way down to find the results you're looking for.

2. Use the search phrase "10A handbags".

A select number of sellers have started to use "10A" in their listing titles to signify a higher quality product. The caveat is that using "10A" + [handbag name]" in your search phrase is not likely to yield enough search results. Instead, use the phrase "10A handbags" and scroll through the limited number of listings to see if someone is selling your style in "10A" quality...

Notice that "10A" handbag prices are a lot higher but understand that there is a limited selection on DHGate.

IMPORTANT NOTE

If the presence of two prices beneath each listing is confusing you, know that the first price is the seller's lowest wholesale price and the second price is actually the price for one handbag.

First price is wholesale, second price is retail.

3. Check the quality of the handbag in customer review photos.

So, how do we know the quality of the handbag matches the price? Check the photos in the customer reviews...

While on the product page, scroll down to reveal the menu with the listing options...

If the listing actually has customer reviews (many of them don't), the "Reviews" menu option will show. If the listing has no reviews, the "Reviews" option will be missing. If it's there, Tap "Reviews"...

The screen will automatically scroll down to the page section with customer reviews. If the listing has customer review photos (not all buyers upload photos with their written reviews), there will be a row of customer photos. Tap the three dots at the far right of the photos to see the rest (if there are more photo reviews than shown, the three dots will be available)...

IMPORTANT NOTE:

Sellers have the option of hiding their customer review photos on DHGate. They sometimes do this to decrease the risk of their listing being taken down for selling dupes. Don't be surprised if you save an item with review photos but, later on in the day, the review photos are no longer visible.

Please also know that not all reviews are written by real customers. Sometimes, sellers hire people to write fake reviews for their products. Please read this article to find out how to tell fake reviews from real reviews on DHGate.

4. If there are no customer review photos, ask the seller for real photos.

Most of the higher quality dupes on DHGate will not have customer review photos. If the product has no customer review photos, it will be missing the star rating normally found above the price on the product page...

If the product has no customer reviews, reach out to the seller and ask if they can send you real photos of the bag...

Tap the "Chat" icon on the lower left hand side of the screen...

ASKING FOR PHOTOS - PRO-TIP 1:

Some sellers will give you their Whatsapp phone number and ask you to message them there. That's fine. However, use only use Whatsapp to accept photos or discuss anything related to the replica aspects of the bag (stamps, logo packaging, authenticity cards, monograms).

But when it comes to everything else such as measurements, type of materials used, and especially shipping information, keep that part of the conversation on DHGate! If the seller does not fulfill their end of the bargain and you need DHGate to mediate in the dispute, DHGate will want to read the conversation between you and the buyer.

ASKING FOR PHOTOS - PRO-TIP 2:

When sellers are asked  for "real photos", most of them send photos from their suppliers (and many sellers use the same supplier!). Supplier photos are usually shot professionally and can look like this (but without the watermarks)...

But if you're not satisfied with the photos the supplier sends you, ask the seller to send you photos that include their store name written on a piece of paper. This will force them to retrieve the real bag and take a photo themselves. You definitely want to do this on items priced $500 and up. If the seller wants your sale, they will comply.

5. Find more high quality dupe listings in the "Picks for You" section.

Your search doesn't have to end on the main search results page. All product pages have a "Picks for You" section. The "Picks for You" section will show you listings that are very difficult to find. This section is fantastic because it will usually show you handbags in the same price range. And when searching for high quality dupes, the price attribute is nearly the only tool you have on DHGate.

But please note that the listings shown in the "Picks for You" section will not necessarily be the same as the product you're viewing. However, this section can be helpful because it will show you more dupes in a higher price range with products of higher quality...

Scroll down the product page until you get to the "Reviews" section...

The "Picks for You" section is located at the bottom of the reviews. Scroll down through the reviews section until you reach it. The "Picks for You" section will have a few rows of listings.
