Hi,
Could you all please authenticate this bag for me? It's the longchamp eiffel tower bag in graphite.
http://cgi.ebay.com.sg/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=250700981270&ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT#payId
I contacted the seller who said that the bag comes with a care card, and provide a copy of the receipt as well.
Hope you guys can share what you think! Thanks!

Hello! I purchase a longchamp bag and see on ebay and hope I can get assistance from all of you for authentication - Item number is:
230527973596. I checked it against all of the "typical" specifications- ( I think it is an older bag)all seems to check out but the plastic reinforcements are leather/material not the plastic, there is no tag on the inside,the snaps do not indicate original but they do not have the fake name sometimes mentioned and the gold pull tab says longchamp paris on one side and longchamp france on the other side. The bag is in great shape. Could you please give me feedback and your opinion? Could it be an older bag that doesn't have some of the newer qualifications? All of the other aspects definitely check out. I would like to give it to my daughter but want to make sure it is the real thing-I really appreciate your feedback. Thank you very much and I look forward to hearing from you.

Hi!
I just want to ask if it is normal to find the care instructions (and other details) tag of a Le Pliage on either side of the bag (inside)?
I own a short handled type M and the tag is on the left. Then I recently purchased a long handled "shopping" le pliage and the tag is on the right side. (Both inspected facing me - with the closed leather flap facing me).
I bought the long handled one at the airport and I know that it is authentic. The short handled one, however, was a gift. Everything else is the same - the snaps, clear plastic discs, zipper pulls, embossed logo & wordings (minus the size), texture of the leather... The only thing that is different is the location of the tag inside.
Hope to hear from you girls... TIA!

hi CH
Longchamp, I have the same situation as MicheleAudrey above.
I bought a Longchamp Le Pliage online and I believe that it is an older version for the reason that there is still that line under the longchamp logo on the leather flap which was their old logo as I read here on older threads. I love vintage Le Pliage and as I inspected all the specifications that would indicate if it's the real thing, all checked out - except for one.
This bag doesn't have the plastic inner label/tag inside where you see where it's made from and the codes (usually sewn on the inner side of the bag). It didn't also have an inner leather label saying 'Made in France' which I see in some older Limited Editions.
Did Longchamp ever make Le Pliage before without this "Made in" plastic inner labels or even those leather "Made in France" labels inside? It does however have the embossed wordings at the back leather portion saying "Longchamp Paris" (on the first line) and "Modele Depose - Made in France" (on the second line). I also noticed that the embossed jockey logo in the front leather flap is not quite seen on the reverse side (the newer authentic ones have embossed markings of the logo on its reverse leather flap side). Please share what you think of it? I'm worried. TIA!
