10 WAYS TO SPOT A FAKE LOUIS VUITTON *EASILY*

1
If the seller has a lot of bags on offer you should steer clear. Vuitton only makes limited numbers of its bags available specifically to avoid them being re-sold. So anyone who has large quantities of LV bags on offer should be considered with a certain degree of suspicion. Take a good look at the official Eluxury website and get to know the genuine articles, knowledge is power as they say. Some so-called LV bags were in fact never produced by Louis Vuitton

2
Louis Vuitton do not use plastic or bubble wrap to wrap their bags.

3
If the price is ridiculously low then it is very unlikely to be a genuine bag. Louis Vuitton handbags are expensive for a reason, they take a long time to make. 

4
Check the quality of the craftsmanship - LV bags are extremely well made and should look as if they are

5
Look out for creases, wrinkles, logos that are not symmetrical, seams that are obviously poor quality.
6
The Certificate of Authenticity - there should be one, fake certificates also exist of course, but no certificate is a bad sign

7
Circular tags made from cheap looking plastic attached to the bag were never made by Louis Vuitton, LV do not attach their tags. When you buy a bag from LV you get two tags and possibly a care booklet. One tag says "Louis Vuitton" and will state the material of the bag 

8
LV dustbags just have the LV or Louis Vuitton logo Interiors made of cheap plastic, or cheap suede

9
The patterns are always lined up correctly (think wallpaper patterns) Louis Vuitton never ever have sales or discounts or wholesale prices.
10
 leather---The handles, straps (if any), and/or trim will usually be a white-colored cowhide that will oxidize (change to a darker honey color) over time.
