Abstract

In the situation that the economic globalization is keeping improving , counterfeit goods has become a worldwide problem. Counterfeiting is now widely regarded as a seriously social, economic, and political issue. The majority of researches on counterfeiting have tended to focus on issues of supply. This paper stood in the side of counterfeits of home-textile to explore the relationship between willingness to buy counterfeit goods and consumer personality traits. Through studying on the undergraduate on campus which would like to purchase counterfeit goods, we found that it is the values of materialism , consumer ethical beliefs, consumer vanity characteristics and attitudes towards counterfeiting that would have significant impact on the consumer’s willingness to buy counterfeit goods.
