I believe there is an insider at LV or maybe several that make money for telling counterfeit manufacturers what is coming out and giving them a sample or two.

The counterfeiters probably just use the same locks they use when making the fake Speedies.BagLady14 said:The fakes have key holes in the padlocks with little keys.
The authentic bags have padlocks that are decorative only on the SPeedy and Pochette.
The locks on the Demi Lune and Musette are part of the closure, but still not keyholes and no keys.
