Is it possible to have the date code at a different location for Montsouris Backpack and shouldn't be the workmanship of the LV Logo print be at the same spot regardless of a new & old one? Is this bag still available in LV Store?

Can you recommend a trustworthy seller?

Sorry for the new thread, the old one had 20,000+ posts which was taxing on our servers. Better to have a fresh start, once in a while.

Eeekk... the heat stamp on the back of the backpack for the first auction worries me... the O in Vuitton should look like an O rather than a zero and the N should be thicker...

i thought the same too! if you notice that the heat stamp for the 1st auction is slighly lower than the other two, not too sure is all because of the angle taken. if you look at the front of the zip pocket print, the LV logo right below the pocket is out of the alignment (1st auction seller actually include the original Black& White catalog in pic & i thought is a gd reference piece).
Btw, is there any possibility that the newer batch of bag may differs cos im no expert here.

Thank you Addy & Lee for your time and help! I was 90% sure of its authenticity, but still a little worried because of that one off stud! Now I'm 100% sure thanks to you two! Although a little disappointed with LV's quality control though..I think in many cases, we're even more meticulous at checking than they are nowadays!

The ebay auction for a "Boulogne" (#160298302277) is an obvious fake! It has been bothering me for several days!

This purse was not listed as "AUTHENTIC", so does this give them a loophole?

I apologise if this question has been asked before. I am new to "fake spotting" and wonderwhat really constitutes a fake!

Although it is obviously a "knock off", technically they are not saying it is a real Louis Vuitton!

From the few pics they've provided: does this card case appear to be authentic? I know their Coach items are...
TIA!
