Authentic vs Fake Louis Vuitton Speedy B 25 Damier Ebene Comparison 

Thanks for watching! This is a comparison video between an authentic and fake Louis Vuitton Speedy Bandouliere 25 in the Damier Ebene print.
I am by no means a Louis Vuitton Authenticator. I simply made an expensive mistake and wanted to share the learning I had done afterwards. It was easy to see a lot of photos/videos online about the more obvious differences like the patterns, stitching...etc. Some of these are just hard to detect without seeing it in person or comparing them side by side. I tried to take this video in as high of quality as possible to show the differences!
I chose not to show things like the receipts since those can be easily faked. I’ve heard that people are often buying real bags and using that receipt with some edits to sell fakes. Do not take a real looking receipt as a way to validate the bag.
FAQS:
Where did I buy the fake?
I purchased it in person in my city from someone lying about the authenticity
Is the fake for sale?
No
Why does it say 53rd week of 2020?
The 53rd week of 2020 is considered December 28 - January 3
