I dont see any red flags so far but I'd like to see a better photo of the horse and rider zipper pull. :)

Hi, received the bag today. Here are some close ups. Thanks!

One thing I'm worried about, the back of the made in tag does not have a serial number stamped.

Is it also normal for the gold on the zipped to be rubbed off a bit to silver?

Please let me know what you think.

One other thing. On the back of the magnetic clasp (Picture 1 below), there's a circle of nylong material covering it (Pic 2). On the back of the second clasp, the nylon has fallen off and looks a bit shoddy. Is this anything to be suspicious about?

Can I please get a second opinion on this item. Seller purchased it at a consignment store and says she isn't sure about the season but guess it's about 2010.

Item Name: Longchamp Ecru Pebbled Leather Handbag Veau Foulonné Type Purse
Item Number: 221172407968

Please let me know if there are any specific places to check on this bag. Thank you.

The main concern is that I don't see the clear plastic tag inside, or a YKK mark on the zipper. I'm not sure if this is because it is older or fake.
 
Hi Ladies,

I am not sure if this has been asked and answered before....I just googled for authenticating longchamps and so far, all results I have encountered says that it is a fake if there are no accent marks on the "modele depose" of the Le Pliage... My younger sister likes the Le Pliage and she bought several when she went to HK.. She told me that they (original ones) are cheaper there and I didn't bother to check her bags until she gave one for me this Christmas.

I know this is quite not nice of me to do but I am just concerned she's buying fake ones without knowing it so I took some quick snaps of one of her bags when she left them on the sofa. It was quite difficult to take photos of the other details but all of the markings are there, it's just that there are no accent marks on the "modele depose".

I will later post the Eiffel Tower edition she gave me.

The leather looks good to me. If you can show us the leather marks on the back showing the 'modele depose'...?
Tag also looks good on this one. If this was purchased from a legit store in HK or duty free you should be fine. :)

Thank you so much rx4dsoul... I will inquire with her where she bought her bags but I remember she bought the first one at HK duty free...here's the best shot of the 'modele depose' markings.. this made me bothered when I saw that there are no accent marks.

Here are some snapshots of the Eiffel Tower... I find that the leather and the missing accent marks are a bit off... Please do authenticate this as well... Thank you.

It's an older bag (maybe 2006ish) but real. :smile1:
