I’ll show you, step-by-step, how to find dupes on Amazon using two simple tricks.

Specifically, the screenshot and special keyword methods.

But before that, here are the current best Amazon dupes if you’re just looking for:

1. a done-for-you list of Amazon dupes to shop right away,
2. or some examples of dupes you could find using this guide.

Either way, you’re in the right place.

The best part?

These are VERY easy steps to follow. They’re little-known tricks that works great to date for me.

Let’s get started.

How to Find Dupes on Amazon (2 Easy Tricks)

In the early days, when you searched for “brand name” + “dupe” on Amazon (e.g. Gucci dupes) you got results, but not anymore.

Nowadays, Amazon suppresses most searches that contain terms like “dupes“, “lookalikes“, “knockoffs“, & “replicas“.

Your search may return no results at all. That’s probably why you’re reading this post. Right?

No worries, there’s a workaround. I’ll show you how later with the second method.

But for now, use this first method below to get quick results:

1. How to Find dupes on Amazon: Screenshot Method

Here are 4 simple steps to find dupes on Amazon with the screenshot method:

Step 1. Take a ? screenshot of the item you want to find a dupe for.

Step 2. Open the Amazon mobile app, and tap on the camera icon in the right corner of the search bar.

Step 3. Upload the screenshot or photo of the item and click “search photo”.

Step 4. Amazon will scan your screenshot and bring up lookalikes for that item. 9 out of 10 times, it will be the perfect dupe you’re looking for.

Note: This function currently works only on the Amazon mobile app.

That’s how you find fake designers on Amazon. Pretty neat right?

Now here is the next method I promised you below.

(It’s a bit of a hit-and-miss, but whenever it works you’ll find replicas on Amazon that’ll make your jaw drop)

2. How to find dupes on Amazon: Keywords Method

Here are two ways to find designer dupes on Amazon with the keywords method:

Part A. Go to amazon.com, in the search field type in your desired “brand name + dupes”. For example, “Lululemon dupes”.

Yes, I know this counters what I said earlier. But don’t roll your eyes yet…

Because this method still works in some cases for ONE reason:

If at least one comment in the review section describes that product as a dupe, it will appear in the search.

For example, I searched for “Lululemon dupes pants” and got relevant hits.

Why?

Because when I opened the first search result…

…you can immediately see the review that brought the product (and related products) up in the results.

Part B. If method a doesn’t work which frankly I expect, then rephrase your search using only the initials of the “brand name + item” you want.

For example, search:

• GG Bag (for Gucci bag dupes)
• CC Earring (for Chanel earring dupes)
• LV Backpack (for Louis Vuitton backpack dupes)
• BV Handbag (for Bottega Veneta handbag dupes)
• Cartier Bracelet (obviously, for Cartier Bracelet dupes)

you get the idea. Yeah?

And it’s okay to just type in the full brand name when you don’t know their initials…

… or if they don’t have a unique brand initial (like in the last example)

It would still work, just don’t add the word dupe this time.

How to Find Dupes on Amazon: Conclusion

That’s how to find dupes on Amazon.

You will now be able to look for similar styles for any designer item you spot online, quicker & easier…

…but more importantly at an affordable price tag.

Happy shopping!
