How to differentiate real or fake Louis Vuitton Wallet?

Here are some ideas: -If a tag on the inside of the wallet says "Made in China" - it's not. Expensive designer brands like LV are made in Italy or Paris (in most cases). -You could look up your wallet on eLUXURY.com to see if it's being sold there. That's the only site that's permitted to sell new Louis Vuitton designer products. -Was it wrapped in LV tissue paper when you got it? -Louis Vuitton uses brass & gold metal hardware (not plastic that's been painted gold). The zippers will also have "LV" printed on them neatly. -The LVs should be lined up on your bag/wallet. Take a ruler and check. -The overall feel of the material - it shouldn't feel "cheap". It should be durable and a nice material if it's real. -You could also try to ask how much your dad BOUGHT it for. I know it's an invasive question, but if he got it for $50 from a street vendor - well, that SCREAMS fake. Those are just some ideas for you. I don't know if Italy has a huge counterfeit/"knock-off" industry or not - but good luck figuring it out!
