No problem Cheese!Thank you, Lee...I received a real bag in a fake dustbag before so I wanted to be extra cautious. Really appreciate your help
Item Name: Epi Sac D'epaule
My mom has this LV bag. She doesn't remember where she got it from and she wants me to sell it on eBay. It is used and she (being a mom) made holes in the strap because it was too long. Anyways, from everything I see, it's real... but then again I'm not 100% sure. Please take a look and let me know if this is real. I can post more pictures if I know what I'm looking for but I don't see any "date code" (I could be missing it but not sure where to look)

Thanks. I decided to buy the bag because I think it's real, but the heat stamp "Louis Vuitton Paris" on the side tab has worn off. Will this make a vintage bag more difficult to authenticate? The date codes are there, as well as the stamped grommets (which were all included in the posting).

Here is one more on the Dutch website. What concerns me right off the bat is the LV date code (SP5128). Has the date code format recently changed or is this a fake-O? The seller says that the bag is 2 years old.
Thanks!!!

I bought this at my local goodwill, if it's a knock off they did quite the job. A friend and I believe it's fake but I would like a second opinion. I will take more pics if needed..
3 zipper pulls, 2 on outside and 1 on inside, all three have LV on them and say "made in france" at the top of the pulls..
on the side view of the purse, little square patch at bottom on both sides with stitching around them says r with a circle around it like for copyright. under that is Louis Vuitton under that Paris, under that made in france. buttons (I think they are rivots not sure) under the handles of the purse all say louis vuitton (2 on each side of purse) inside patch says same at the two squares on the sides of purse. Little tag sticking out from purse on inside says RA-1780-003
handles have a darker red coloring after the stitch where they were put together
some of the stitching looks sloppy.

Thanks to anyone in advance
I found this today at a new thrift shop in town. Compared to other Louis Vuittons I own this looks and feels like the real thing. The only thing I'm really questioning is the date code, because I'm not familiar with that grouping.. Please let me know if you'll need more pictures!
Thanks!
Thanks!
