2100+ sites selling fake uggs???

Wow thats a big number but that's whats coming directly from the manufacturer. I've thought about posting them all here, but geez, that's a lot of sites, I really don't have the time or desire, and no matter, when one is outed they just register a new domain name with some corruption of the word 'ugg' worked into it somehow. That's why I say checking for the word 'ugg' in the url is the easiest way to protect against buying counterfeit product.

Rumor has it that there will be some changes coming real soon to the uggaustralia.com website that is designed to inform and educate about counterfeits, an interactive feature that will help determine if a site sells fakes or not, etc. It's a step in the right direction, but they really need to put that on the main page instead of burying it in the 'retailers' section. Look for it next week if the rumor mill is right.

  2. We suspect that many are sold by Chinese crime syndicates. Check out this post: http://how-to-spot-fake-ugg-boots.blogspot.com/2009/09/so-whats-so-bad-about-buying-fake.html
