Top 5 Signs It’s a Fake – Louis Vuitton
1. Unauthorized Seller with Large Inventory
Louis Vuitton products are only authorized to be sold at Louis Vuitton stores and online at http://www.eluxury.com, Most other purchases made are limited to small amounts to avoid reselling, so if you encounter a seller with a large inventory (more than a few items), chances are, they are counterfeit.
2. Item/Design Not Available on Website
3. Handles Wrapped in Plastic/Hardware Wrapped in Tissue
Many times, authentic Louis Vuitton handbags will have handles made out of genuine rolled cowhide and they will NOT be wrapped in any kind of plastic or bubble wrap. If you see this on an item, it is a fake!
4. Price Seems “Too Good to Be True”
With Louis Vuitton, you get what you pay for. An authentic item can last a lifetime and with the proper care, can live long enough to be passed on to your children. If you encounter an alleged LV item with a price that seems “too good to be true”, it probably is and is most likely a fake.
5. Cut Off, Asymmetrical Logos/Seam at Bottom of Bag
Louis Vuitton expertly crafts their handbags out of one continuous piece of of fabric or leather so if the item in question has cut off/asymmetrical logos or a seam at the bottom of the bag, it is not authentic.
