Authentic Replica

Have you any idea to whom you are speaking?
I laugh in the face of that colorful sweet talk.
Like a processed snack treat it's profoundly reeking,
An artificial contrivance at which I balk.
I recognized this trinket you wish to sell many times today.
It walked down the street into the coffee shop.
I saw it at work, in traffic, and prominently on display
Upon every laptop, billboard and bus stop.
I'm to believe this is a one-of-a-kind,
An original solution tailored to me?
It is rather, indeed, just as you defined -
'An authentic replica' - on that we agree.
There's no trick in your arsenal I cannot rebuff.
You may be wary of words, but not nearly enough.
