Here is the rule of thumb when buying a LV. ALWAYS BUY IT FROM THE STORE, there are hella sites and supposedly legit stores that sell these LV bags and they can come off looking real (Thanks to south Korea) but in the end its still a fake.. Get it from an LV store just to be safe. Each item has their own special code, so if your sis wants it to be repaired or replaced then LV can go off of that special code. If you want to waste 1k-3k on an LV bag, get it from the store.IMO people who buy fake LV's are posers, if you cant afford the real thing then dont get it at all. Its like a taking a 328i emblem and replacing it with a M3 badge.

What if you have a shit ton of real bags and you want some fakes too? Some stuff to wear every day without worrying about thrashing?

I can see that, but then you should just get a different kind of bag. I can see the value in it but honestly those bags never look great after a while. Anyways, I've been looking at the LV Neverfull Damier Ebene MM. Fucking impossible to find If anyone sees it pick it up for me and i'll toss you some cash on top.

A good sales associate should be able to track them down for you.

I've seen shitty cheap fakes and great fakes shes purchased. I've held the real and bs bags next to each other and the fakes are f'en spot on. Come with the lock, key, serial #, certificate of authenticity. Fuck, shes had people at the LV store check out her bags as well as dropped fakes at the store for cleaning.

There is a difference between a shitty fake and a great fake.
to be even more off topic

does she actually GO to china to buy them or get them online through a chinese distributor?
