I think this member likes starting threads stating that she received fake Louis Vuitton purses from authorized stores.
She also posted saying that she believed she got a fake from Saks because the hardware was chipping off her pochette.:yes::rolleyes:

:hrmm: Thanks cindylicious,I thought it was hard to believe as well cos I remembered exchanging my LV once and they did a really thorough check on it.
 
shes a novice LV enthusiast...lets not attack her =)

some people who are new to LV think that the Monogram canvas is actually leather and do not understand that it is a vinyl like material
 
well, not unless she posts pics of the speedy... I dont think LV would sell fakes unless thhe SA is up to somethhing... I love the smell of new LV's though....especially the epi line...
 
My mom and I have bought LV from the store for at least 15 years and have never had a problem like this. The LV SAs, while not ALWAYS the best at being able to authenticate a piece, will no doubt call in the manager if there is any doubt about authenticity.
In other words, I highly doubt you bought a fake bag from the Louis Vuitton store.

It's not supposed to smell like plastic, right?

It has some vinyl smell..I don't know how to say it...it has brand new LV bag smell..:biggrin: :biggrin:

Why don't you try to post the pics of:

Date code ( the number behind the pocket flap)

Dust bag

The louis vuitton stamp (outside on the leather tab Louis Vuitton Paris Made in USA or France)

Inside and outside of bag

Keys and lock


I am sure others want to see the pics as well :yes:
