I bought this at an estate sale and was told that the bag was authentic, however, upon further investigation, it is not because the handles, zipper, and side leather pieces have all been replaced by a cobbler! I was told that the original monogram was indeed, authentic however I do not believe that Louis Vuitton would agree, considering so many changes have been made. This bag will need to go to a cobbler for the zipper to be fixed as it is no longer on its track. However, the bag is an overall good condition otherwise! PRICE REFLECTS
