So I picked this up from a thrift store, and I was talking to the employee who priced it (she was putting up items that just came it)...it was priced cheap because she missed the brand name... NEways...I thought I had a great deal until I looked online for "how to authenticate" the bag... My concerns are the logo above the front button is a little off to one side, the zipper says "5CN" w/a "I" on the side (not a YKK zipper) and there is no tag inside or a lining. I'm thinking it's fake...but could it possibly be an older version? All other indicators are there... I don't know about the feel of an authentic longchamp le pliage vs this one, as I've never held a verified authentic one. Based on pics...what's your opinion...an obvious fake, or "well done" fake? (note: the underside of the button says "original prym 64B" which is hard to see in the pics)

Any input is much appreciated! :smile1:

Hi,

I need assistance in authenticating this Longchamp autour medium short handle in choco. I read some guides and it looks real to me however I read somewhere that the authentic version of longchamp doesnt have a plastic or paper like cover on the handle. Sorrry the pic with a tag is blur. got it from the seller.Thanks.

Too many fake bags on ebay which claim to be authentic...and the imitations are getting better and better i.e. the normal things to look out for like the buttons, the plastic snaps, the zippers etc are so similar that it is hard to tell which is real and which is fake for the untrained eye. Better to get the bags from the shop than to risk it on ebay.

This is an authentic travel XL size Le Pliage. Older, yes, but real.;)
