Do wait for a second opinion from Lee or Addy as well.

Ok, I wait. Kind Regards

Thanks! Did Louis Vuitton ever even make the color "Mango"??

I used to have this, but it was stolen when I was on vacation. I've been wanting to replace it, but can't bring myself to pay full price. Is this real? Thx!!

You know - I don't recall hearing about the color Mango. A quick Google search only turned up the eBay listing in question.

I'd have to do more research or maybe another of the authenticators knows the answer.

I'm so sorry your bag was stolen!!!

Item No: 290366352015

This auction needs all new photos - the ones included are kind of sad.

Straight on of just the bag
Heat stamp
Date code
Front and back of pushlock

Instruct the seller to use macro setting (little flower) on their digi, and use adequate lighting with NO flash.

I would prefer to see new photos - taken with macro setting (little flower) on the digital camera.

Heat stamp on leaf of bag
Date code
Zipper pull
Handle chav (where the rivet and stitching attaches the handle to the bag)

Hi Rebecca! Beautiful day for authenticating - no?

Thank you~~ Have a nice day~~~
I am waiting for ADDY and Lee...

The bag looks authentic, I'd also want a pic of the date code to be sure.

That's the thing... she insisted on cash, no paypal, no bank check and no cashier's check either. Pick up in person and cash. My problem is that how in the world would I know that it's an authentic one even if I see it in person? I never bought LV by myself before. I take LV leftover from my mom

She's miles away thus won't be able to participate. I wish the LV store would be able to help to authenticate the bag, alas SA told me that they didn't offer such service.

Is this not the date code picture that I'm attaching? The only one that the seller provided. Thanks again

Do not pay! The risk is too high
