Thanks to all who replied. After seeing so many fakes out there, I guess I'm one in a million!

very pretty, I'm falling in love with the black multicolor, and yours looks gorgeous, I love the when the black bags get their patina, so pretty! Great find!!!

the colors are severely off, i see about 6 maybe 7, not 33. Sorry but that is not real, at least your daughter did not buy it and received it as a gift, buying a fake is no fun (believe me i know)

Hi,
I would very much like to confirm that my daughter's handbag is an authentic Louis Vuitton. She worked at a high-end boutique and became friends with the owner who gave it to her (used). She thinks it looks old-fashioned, so she wants me to sell it for her on eBay. I believe it to be authentic, but I can't seem to find photos of the same one on-line (only some that are similar).
I would very much appreciate it if anyone would please look at the photos and provide me with some opinions. I can take more photos if it would help.
Thanks so much!

Yours doesn't look authentic to me. I found this one on ebay.

This Epi Speedy IS authentic...

Thank you for the confirmation.
However, the pocket is not really aligned(is it just a photo?) and the number of stiches on the leather tab with "Louis Vuitton Paris..." stamped does not seem right. The speedy I own(mono) has four stiches not five on each side of V.
If you own epi speedy(recent one with soft leather), can you have a look as well?
Many thanks.

KTLV - The number of stitches are different on the Epi. Which picture are you referring to when you say the pocket is crooked?

boysRsmelly · May 6th, 2008, 10:42 AM

Oh wait, you're talking about the triangle tab at the end of the zipper... sorry. Yeah, I think its supposed to have 4 stitches on each side of the V.

I found an Epi Speedy on Let-Trade's website (they always take such good pictures).

Thanks, BoysRsmelly

I meant the pocket outside when I refered slanted pocket.
When you place a ruler at the bottom of the bag and bring it up gradually you see what I mean. I am too meticulous and obsessed aren't I?

I have communicated the seller and the person seems so nice, but I think I follow my instinct and not bid for this one. Getting a LV bag in a office occasion doesn't seem right to me.

Thank you for your help, guys.

^^^ Nothing looks out of the ordinary. A pic of the date code?

Hi need your help again.
I've got an epi speedy25 from ebay(not the one I enquire about previously). It all looks good in the photo, but I noticed that the bag has LV stamp logo on both sides(I mean the one at the right bottom corner). Is it what I should expect???
