Fake Museum?

I was flying home from Washington DC and reading the American Airlines magazine. They mentioned something about a museum of fakes - like fake Vuitton handbags, fake designer clothes, fake Cartier jewelry and watches.

Has anyone heard of, or better yet, been to the Fake Museum?

I haven%26#39;t been but it%26#39;s on my list. The Musée de la Contrefaçon is all about fake goods. Here%26#39;s an article from the IHT and a general info website.

It might be an interesting place to stop into...if you%26#39;ve just purchased your wardrobe and accessories for Paris, while shopping down on Canal St....to find out if that $35 Rolex, $25 Louis Vuitton, $10 Hermes, et al were %26#39;..bargains..%26#39;.
