I was just wondering, does anybody have a few tips on how to tell if the stuff is real or not?

And yes I searched on google.

[Warlord]

designer shit? did you buy it from a legit store or from jimmy the slimeball?

[mobster281]

I dont know but I got me a fake louis vuitton wallet and the leather feels better than the real thing.

Bring a teenaged girl with you. They know everything about designer clothes/accessories.

Your profile says male, why you getting girly stuff?

[Shin]

When in doubt, use the smell test!

But seriously, I think it works in this case. The real one has an .... authentic smell to it.

From what my friend's mom told me, there is a serial code in the inside on a little tag and you can call to check if it's a real code that hasn't been registered yet or something along those lines. Becuase she got one for really cheap, and it was real.

Plenty of guys here have designer wallets and watches. Along with D&G belts and such.

I only have some Burberry and RL polos but guys here wear designer clothes.

[Will]

Sure some guys here wear designer clothes but when you hear Louis Vuitton you think handbags...at least I do.

[Sida]

Never heard of Louis Vuitton. American?

[mobster281]

Never heard of Louis Vuitton. American?

I think its from England or Italy or one of those countries

[Sida]

Well i'm from England and haven't heard of it...maybe i'm just outdated

Nah, she's French. I've heard of her, and I think I remember Neopets advertising her handbags at one point.

Not a person, it's a company. They specialize in leather stuff. (ie handbags, wallets, etc.)

Sean is right; in the middle of the handbag or somewhere on the Louis it should have a small squarish leather tag that says Louis Vuitton and has a serial number.

Your vast knowledge on Louis Vuitton is making me assume things, Ender.

Yeah them stupid neopets flash ads exposing me to crap I shouldn't be exposed to

I can tell real easy because me and my buddies used to sell fake wallets and stuff. Basically you can only know from experience. Its the position of the stitching the pattern of the flowers and little circles can also sometimes be off. If your leather doesnt darken from oxidation after a while thats a sure give away. The most important is the serial tag you have to match it with a real one. Don't bring it to the LV store thats for sure i have seen people do that its a bad idea. If you are gonna buy pirated merchandise.....well just dont do it lol.

[Ilya]

check the tag on the inside of the shirt, there is a littlepaper thing it should be said where its made..

EDIT: W00T 2k post!

I looked it up, its a french company. Its just an overpriced brand like gucci. I went to the gucci store in the galleria and saw a wallet for 300 dollars! I think the leather on some 30 dollars wallets feel better than that piece of crap. I got me a fake one made of real leather thats just as good and got it for 1/10 the price of a real one.

[Amagius]

Lol, I never go to the Galleria. It's just an overpriced designer mall.

Yeah I usually dont go there much. I mostly go to baybrook or sharpstown mall. The closest mall to me is san jacinto but it sucks.

Convenient excuse...
