Authentic Louis Vuitton Wallets and Purses
Finding a replica Louis Vuitton is as easy as finding nits in a school playground, perhaps easier. But finding the real deal is a harder prospect - especially when they all claim to be the real deal.
Louis Vuitton anything has value. Whether it be a wallet, a purse, handbag or travel bags, if it carries the insignia of LV it gives the person carrying it the priceless commodity of ego. The fashion statement of carting your precious items around is instantly, and internationally, recognizable.
But counterfeiting items such as a Louis Vuittion purse or wallet is becoming an industry in itself. authorities closed a factory operating out of Guangzhou, China which was making, and selling, replica Louis Vuitton items. Who were they selling them to? Foreigners of course. Tourists who were looking to buy quality accessories at a cheap price.
So, apart from purchasing a wallet or purse direct from the factory in Paris how do you ensure your Louis Vuitton is the genuine article? Especially if you bought it second-hand or overseas.
- Check the quality Quality items such as Louis Vuitton are crafted with quailty materials and processes. Check the lining. Is it glued or stitched? If it's glued you've just bought a dud. Counterfeiters are always trying to make a quick buck so they will employ quick methods in creating their replicas as well.
- Is the price feasible Classic Louis Vuitton monogram wallets and purses run from US$50 - 200+. If you're paying any less, you're not getting the real deal. Fakes range in price from $5 to $10.
- Is the purse snap genuine. Real Louis Vuitton purse snaps are monogrammed. Manufacturers of replica Vuittons often skip that specific.
- Check the mongram The "LV" monogram should have irregular brown lines through the gold-coloured letters, and a flower pattern. Fake monograms may be a solid colour or look too green or orange.
