Supporting local? DJ Zinhle accused of selling overpriced Shein bags

Supporting local? DJ Zinhle accused of selling overpriced Shein bags. DJ Zinhle has been accused of exploiting her fans by allegedly inflating the prices of her Era handbags.
According to a few social media users, the bags were originally purchased from Chinese fast fashion brand Shein or a similar supplier.
DJ ZINHLE ACCUSED OF OVERPRICING ERA BAGS
This week, Zinhle showed off a few new pieces in her Era fashion accessories collection. They included a cute mini bucket bag, which comes in pink and black.
But one eagle-eyed tweep quickly spotted that the bag – minus the Era logo – was nearly identical to one found on the fast fashion app Shein. To add insult to injury, the bag was a third of the price of the one sold by the DJ.
“I’m just plugging the girls who don’t have R750 to spend for that Era logo”, claimed the tweep.

Naturally, many consumers on the X app were not impressed:
@khulanimalambe: “Buy local, only to find out you are buying a logo on a Shein app.”
@shazzzy__: “She didnt even try”
@wendymay13: “Both Shein and Zinhle buy from the same supplier in China. Probably for R30
@lelethuzintle: “1/10 for creativity”
@joy_zelda: “DJ Zinhle has become GalxBoy. Why put a logo on something that is not yours? She’s a disgrace.”
