I bought a Longchamp Le Pliage Fuschia from eBay:
http://cgi.ebay.ph/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=360375427392&ssPageName=ADME:X:AAQ:PH:1123

I bought this bag because of the seller's feedback. It looked authentic in the photos but when it arrived I compared it with my other Longchamp Bags bought from the boutique and the zipper pull is totally different, its slightly thinner than the original ones that I have. The size is the same. The inside has the tag with the code and the care card looks exactly the same. The embossed logo on the flap is larger than the one I bought from the boutique. I am not an expert so I am not sure if this is real. Does this embossed logo on the flap and zipper pull really vary?

I am bringing the bag to the boutique to have it checked and I also sent pictures of it to Longchamp customer service, not sure if they can help but its worth to try.

I hope you can help me too and give your opinions while I await their reply. Aside from the photos on the link I provided by the seller above, here are some additional ones that I took, comparing my boutique bought LE PLIAGE "SHOPPING" tote of the same size in Navy, your opinions would be greatly appreciated as well. Thank you!

I'm sorry but your mauve is a replica. It's unfortunate to have fake bags passed on as authentic at Ebay.ph and when sold by powersellers and high feedback rated sellers it becomes more convincing. I am speaking from experience. I have seen such replica and they are very close to original. Only upon closer scrutiny will you see the difference.

Ask for a refund.

Hi dear...i think its fake and yes, i had the same experience with a seller with 100% + FB on ebay.ph i can pm you the seller's name, these are very good replicas and its sad to see how many good feedbacks they get probably from buyers who didnt know better :( i contacted the seller saying that there are wrong details on the bag and the seller offered to refund me...i hope you can do the same.

By the way this seller has a Curry le pliage on sale with the wrong color code so i would guess this person is selling mostly replicas.

The fakers are really good at what they do now. One thing that gave it away too was the smell. It didn't smell like the one exactly in the boutique. Thank you so much for confirming my doubts.

Hi Longchamp Experts,
I desperately need your help. This bag I'm watching on ebay is described to be "authentic" and was bought at WoodburyCommons. There's NO tag inside that says the serial number and where it is made. Also, the zipper pull says "Longchamp Paris" and on the back "Longchamp France" Shouldn't the other side say "Longchamp 1948"?Here are the photos sent by the seller. Any help will be much appreciated.

^hi i'm not here to authenticate your bag since i am not an expert but just wanted to share that i have a longchamp le pliage which i bought years ago (circa '02-'04) in paris (airport) and the round zipper pull also says Longchamp France on one side and Longchamp Paris on the other side. It says made in france at the back side of the leather flap though (back of the bag). Don't know if this helped but i'm just sharing - i'm not saying whether your bag is authentic or not - i'm leaving that to the thread experts. :smile1:
