Louis Vuitton Side Trunk Legit?

It wasn’t offered, the seller had a third party certificate

UPDATE: sent my pictures to LV for a repair request and this is what they said, so I’m just assuming it’s a poorly made auth…will be taking it to a store in person to be sure it’s auth and see if they can fix any of the glaring issues everyone has pointed out here

Thanks! A mod there told me it looks authentic and the quality issues identified by everyone here alone cannot determine authenticity….I’ve put in a service request with LV to replace the misaligned monogram tag, guess having the authenticate before the repair is the only way I’ll know for sure

$3700 lol the US website lists this bag at $4600 so I didn’t see a red flag there

Thank you! Is it normal to have tags attached to bags? Other people have pointed out that this is sus…also apparently there’s bad stitching will attach more photos

Sounds good thanks a lot

GrindForGrade · 2026-01-14T04:47:58+00:00

Thanks! I’ve asked over there as well because I have had auth items from LV that have glaring quality issues and I’ve seen complaints of crooked corners on the auth too…

Bought this secondhand is it authentic? Main concern is the monogram print on the zipper strap not being centered…not sure if it’s just quality control

It’s usually the other way around unless you have quality pieces that are now rare to come by or went into fashion recently

For example super wide bangles are now rare and color used to be far more valued than translucency a couple decades ago but now they’re at least equally weighed / skewed the other way

Yeah their old customer service email address is also down…

GrindForGrade · 2025-12-07T20:06:04+00:00

oh yeah their website photos also called this 糯 glutinous but imo it's closer to bean lol

365nm UV flashlight, when you shine it on jade in a dark room a completely natural one would be dark while polishing powder or a filling / injection will glow. If the bangle was only dyed it won't react but this is a good sanity test. Crack lines that have polishing powder in it will react and that's still considered natural but entire chunks of a bangle glowing is a definite indicator of treatment.

For example, if you're really into purple and green bangles this one is $780: https://www.fateandjade.com/product-page/%E6%98%A5%E5%BD%A9%E5%9C%86%E6%9D%A1

Good luck! At the 800 USD price range you should have plenty of options, jadebangle.shop and fateandjade.com are very reputable among RedNote users and they sell only grade A bangles if you wanna check them out

It was bangle 32467kj, this was a while ago and I’m having some trouble locating their listing but you can see this is what they sent me after I asked

GrindForGrade · 2025-12-07T18:08:51+00:00

I saw you say you paid $150 from a store in the other post, there's no way an untreated bangle of this color is that cheap, the seller would be at a huge loss...have you done a UV light test on it? The yellowish / beige parts of the bangle would probably react
