What's the difference between PVC and synthetic leather, more specifically the feel?
Please look at these two purses. Of course, they are cheap, but I'm wondering how do they feel.

Technically, there may be no difference at all as PVC is used in many imitation leathers. However, there's a difference between the shiny PVC material and the leather-look PVC material. The shiny stuff will feel smooth and plasticy because it's been varnished, it will be shiny and will often be a thin material, although with it being a purse in this case it's probably going to be thicker and lined. The synthetic leather stuff won't be shiny and will feel rougher and tougher, to match the appearance of real leather. A high quality synthetic leather can be almost identical to the real thing if done right. Of course, it won't have the same smell as real leather so that's a giveaway. The purses in that link you've provided look as if they are more leather-look than shiny varnished PVC, they have very little shine even with professional photography.
