Where can I get Louis Vuitton bags appraised? Or how can I figure out if it's real?

Question

My grandma gave me one of her Louis Vuitton bags because she said she didn't like it. I won't use it.. so I was going to sell it on ebay. The problem is, I can't tell if it's real. I'm almost positive it is, because where my grandmother lives (Austria) I doubt she could get a fake that looks this good. It has a serial number on the inside and I checked out the seam work and it looks pretty flawless. Are there any special features I can look at to make sure it's real? Or where could I take it to have someone look at it and see if it's real?

Answer 1

I heard if there's the LV print inside it's real. Not sure though.

Answer 2

First of all, do you know if your grandma had purchased these bags at the Louis Vuitton Store?  If you cannot ask her, then option #2 would be to bring the bags to the Louis Vuitton Store to have them authenticate the bags.  They don't charge for letting you know if the bags are real or not.  Finally, you can also take pictures of these bags, inside and out.  Then send it to MyPoupette.com to have them authenticate the bags for you for $10.  Otherwise, there is no other ways to tell if the bag is real or not since you did not post any pictures and the information you have posted are not enough to tell.
