It dun look clear enough. So hard to add 3 more letters lol, I mean it doesn't look clear enough on the pics to judge but I would be hard pressed to be convinced that they are authentic.

my friend got nailed on ebay... he was not a big timer... someone reported him, his auctions were pulled and he was contacted by a lawyer from Louis Vuitton which basically said if we catch you do this again, we'll f*** you up

you know what guys? it's futile to sale high-end gear to people who just assume it to be fake due to the fact that the price is low. i thought we're here to create some fellowship with a common love for BMW and as a result create *favourable* pricing for gear that we don't need anymore.
I see people sale high-end stereo equipment for a cheap, nice rims/wheel combo for cheap, unused clothing for cheap, used games/game-sets for cheap....etc, as opposed to saling at a fair price to strangers. think of it as a discount that the general public don't get.
i pulled my gear off here and sold it through ebay, it's not worth the head ache or comments that i got because i wasn't able to provide a clear picture or the other excuses i received.
if you're looking for LV gear, buy it from the store or, better yet, ask to see it in person as opposed to making ridiculous accusations on an internat chat board, that's my recommendation.
and to all the nay-sayers that inquired, if you're high-rolling, why are you buying used gear in the first place?

Its hard to make replica camera,rims,audio equipment,etc,etc..its easy to make fake watches,jewelry,bags,clothing...ATM take clearer photos and submit them..that will clear up the misconception that %99 of mulitple LV items sold on forums are fakes...

Anyone that even conceptualizes the notion that these could remotely be real deserves to get ripped off.....

1. I don't have a problem with fake stuff as long as the seller is straight up about it (not trying to sell them as real)
In fact, I prefer the fake shit because I change my style like I change my underwear and I would NEVER let those motherf...rs (designers) make $$ off me by selling me a purse for 3 grand every season, No way!
2. about the penalties - whoever got away with just a warning is pure lucky. I know ppl who got caught selling the stuff (especially LV) and getting fines anywhere from 10 - 25 g's. I guess it depends on how much they bust you with
3. LV is no longer in (the market is oversaturated with the fakes

Looks like i proved myself well...
BimmerBlonde... LV will always be in... its a classic style which is affordable... and besides... a bad fake you can spot a mile away... much like the wallets and belts that were offered to us at a favourable price because we all share a common love for BMW
How much did u get for them on Ebay?

also the real LV products never come wrapped in that plastic wrap like the belt buckle is.
