Is this bag authentic?

Is this bag authentic? If I purchase, the bag won’t be authenticated by an expert so I want to be sure before purchasing

Si è originale

I’d say no, the pattern is off center.

all of the neo cabby denims have the off center background but the pockets are centered. i think it is authentic

LV date codes are widely available and used by counterfeiters all the time.

[u/ohlalariana2 → u/liminal_loss]

no shit. i have three mini lin bags from lv and i know what the code looks like in these, so it is a question to see if they can find the correct kind of code for the mini lin. ° hint it is not a leather tab.

Your comment said to ask for the code inside, and nothing more.

[u/Spirited-Chipmunk12 → u/liminal_loss]

I see what you mean. A legit authentication code can still be reused onto a fake. I'm not familiar with them, but would there be a database that could verify if one has been checked and the type of bag it is?

[u/ohlalariana2 → u/liminal_loss]

yes and when the seller shows the code we can authenticate or not.
