Left/top is real...this game is fun! I play it when I walk around NYC, my boyfriend thinks I'm nuts :biggrin: .

Sometimes its easy to spot fakes...they just look "off", anyone know what I mean? A casual passerby may think they're real, but our trained eyes know better!

I agree that the one on the right in the first set of pics is fake. The leather looks plasticy, there's a badly frayed edge on the pocket, and a loose thread.
Once again, with the second set of pics the fake is obvious. It's the bottom one. The first thing I noticed was how crooked the zipper looked and how poor the stitching on the handles looked. LV would never use such shoddy stitching.

Left is real. The LV symbols on the right one look funny (too skinny?) and the distressing doesn't look right either. The vachetta handles can become shiney after use, but I don't think the shine would be photographed that well.
