I have to disagree with you... I've ran into many authentic LV's over on eBay sold by reputable sellers, but it seems like AMAZON is the worst place you could possibly go bag-hunting to...

Either way, I recomend any person in search of authentic Vuitton to buy off of eLuxury or of course, an actual Louis Vuitton boutique.


Can you post pictures of the bag you purchased on Amazon?

Yeah, I'd rather buy off of eBay. I don't even know if I (as a buyer) am protected when buying from Amazon.

But, I would much rather buy from the LV site or eluxury.com. That way, I know for 110% it is authentic!

Yes, I would be very wary of bags on Amazon. At least ebay likes to put the buyers above the sellers, although it kinda sucks when you're a seller. LOL! But I know of many reputable sellers on ebay that sell authentic LV and would much rather purchase from them. Amazon is okay for buying used textbooks though. LOL!

Ebay is definitely much better, I have had great deals over the years there , however you just gotta be extremely cautious now and buy only from reputed sellers. I buy only from people I have dealt with in the past.

You just have to know your ebay buyers, if you spend enough time on there, you'll get to recognize their names.
Amazon is a great source for books though.

I would never buy a purse on Amazon. I've seen WAY too many fakes. I def trust eBay more.

I know Ebay can be slightly risky at times.. But ive never been let down yet. I think you just need to be a bit careful because its such a good resource i can always find what im looking for and saves me hours of searching.

I never knew any of this about Amazon. There's really fakes on there? I kind of always assumed the bags were all authentic, bc I assumed Amazon was reputable. Man, can't trust anyone on the internet! Except I guess some ebay sellers?
