The rings on authentic Louis Vuitton bags will be in the shape of a "D" and not a circle that is found on many fakes. Check all rings that are on your LV bag handles to make sure it isn't a counterfeit bag. Fake Louis Vuitton bags usually have a circular ring for the bag handles, while authentic LV bags use a D-shaped ring.
Tip : You can ask Louis Vuitton to give you the date of manufacture of your trunk (delays 4 to 6 months), attach photos and bill of sale proving full ownership of the trunk. Trunks manufactured after 2000 have a serial number on the same register as handbags. This number indicates the factory , the week and the year of manufacture: XX O O O O.wvNBYxP. 554 723 502 947 700 90 97 920
