I do not have the original receipt as it was purchased back in 06-07 however it has all the tags and code numbers and also a serial no. stamped into the leather on the inside of bag. What is the best way to know if it is authentic and how should i list it so i do not violate any policies?? It is Brand new never been used do I need to state that it is pre-owned just never used?? I am new to selling and not sure what i have done wrong? CAN ANYONE HELP ME PLEASE?</P> Tue, 20 Nov 2012 20:39:22 GMT https://community.ebay.com.au/t5/Selling/Authentic-louis-Vuitton-Handbag-Listing-removed/m-p/222808#M21273 katandmia2008 2012-11-20T20:39:22Z https://community.ebay.com.au/t5/Selling/Authentic-louis-Vuitton-Handbag-Listing-removed/m-p/222827#M21278 <P class="mce-p">All of the fakes have all of the accompanying paperwork and ebay has no way of knowing if any bag is fake or not.
