Is it Real or is it a Counterfeit Knockoff?
How to Spot a Fake vs Authentic Louis Vuitton

1. If the claims are that it is "brand new" and costs less than $300, most likely it is counterfeit.

2. If the "LV" logo is upright on both sides, it might be a knockoff.

3. If it's "brand new" and being sold on eBay or Yahoo! Auctions, there is a good chance it's a fake.

4. If the piping is not leather, it is a fake.

5. If the seams are uneven, frayed, the monogram is missing or the item is poorly sewn inside or out, it is definitely a counterfeit.

6. If there is no date code (e.g. date number) provided or if the seller is reluctant to provide a date code or receipt, it could be a knockoff.

7. If it is a new bag and the bag handle is a different color leather than that of the piping, it's definitely a fake.

8. If the re-seller doesn't allow returns on 'new' items, most likely it's fake (or stolen).

9. If you bought it in your local Chinatown or from a street vendor, you can bet it's a knockoff.

10. If the dust cover has rounded edges and/or if it doesn't come with a dust cover, it's a fake.
