I agree, Frankie you need to ask for detailed pictures of the zipper pull, heat stamp, date code, hardware (lock and keys). ANYONE could have an authentic LV box and dustbag next to a very good fake. I am not saying this is fake but it is hard to tell from just one pictures. This is just my opinion. Be careful.

I meant the leather pull on the zipper... doesn't it look odd, or is it just me??! Also the hole seems "little"???! no??!

Hi all...
I'm new here

I need help from you guys to check if this bag is authentic or not. I won this item from ebay
250224626765, I´m thinking, there could be something wrong because the inside bag colour is not bright red like what I seen in other Speedy bag 30 sale on ebay. Also, this is a new seller.
I'm excited (coz this is my first LV

) as well as worried

what if it's just a fake one.
Any thoughts please?
Thanks so much & Happy Easter

It looks good to me, but I'm not a Damier expert.

I purchased the large size toilette on eBay about a month ago. Because it was vintage and the zipper was messed up I got it for a really cheap price. The seller said it was authentic and judging from the color of the LVs in comparison with my other bags I'm pretty sure it is real, however I don't have any vintage and I was just wondering.

This is the only pic I have right now because my camera is dead. There is a white looped tag on the inside that says LOUIS VUITTON PARIS made in france. The date code is just to the left of that on the side where it folds together and it reads 833. I'll get more pics when I can, but from this, what do you think?

From what I can see, I think the bag is fine. It would be nice to see a date code and heat stamp though.

It's not unusual for the lining to fade in color... but it could also be due to the flash on the camera washing the image out.

Can't see a whole lot in your picture... but I don't see anything out of the ordinary. What kind of zipper pull does it have? Is it Talon brand?

ibu francis · March 21st, 2008, 07:47 PM

Thanks all for your opinion :)
I will ask her for the stamp heat & date code
well fingers cross.... I also ask my poupette to check this bag, do you think it really help?
Thanks

There is no zipper pull on it. I guess it had broken off during the time the previous owner had it. I want to get it replaced but I don't want to bring it into my local LV store and have them tell me it's fake. I would be so embarrassed!

What do you think about this bag? Is real or fake? Thanks.

VivaLaJuicy · March 22nd, 2008, 04:50 PM

^^^It looks good to me...

If you take a bag to the store, isn't it their responsibility to take it away from you in case it's a fake?
Just wondering...

lilstrlett · March 23rd, 2008, 09:00 AM

I've never heard that, besides, it's not my fault if I bought it from someone on eBay and they told me it was authentic. I'm not just gonna stop using it or give it to the sales associates at the store.
