TIPS TO AVOID COUNTERFEITS ONLINE
How to spot suspicious sellers online?
THE OFFER:
If the seller is not a professional, beware of "perfect" photos of the product as they, typicallyare copied from the official website of the brand. Ask for real photos of the product fromdifferent views. If possible, ask the seller to see the product before buying. Check on thephotos that the finishing of the product complies with the level of quality of the brand (do nothesitate to go to official stores to compare with genuine products)
Beware of "too good deal", too attractive prices and discounts. If the price looks too good tobe true, it probably is.

Here is a list of keywords that may indicate that the item purportedly authentic offered forsale is actually a counterfeit: LONGCHAMP TYPE/ STYLE, LONGCHAMP REPLICA,CANNOT GUARANTY AUTHENTICITY, NO GUARANTEES, DESIGNER INSPIRED.
THE SELLER:
Study the information available on the seller: sales history, evaluations (negativeevaluations, mention of the word "counterfeit", disputes). Collect maximum information
about the seller, including its location.
Ask the seller about the origin of the product. We recommend asking the sellers ofLongchamp products to prove their authenticity by providing labels, receipt and the original
packaging. However, be aware that, even if the seller guarantees the authenticity or showsa supposedly authentic label or tag, he may nevertheless be selling a counterfeit product.
If the seller is not a professional, beware of a very wide range of different models of different
brands in big quantities. Beware also of seller not having stocks but offering to manufacture
on demand.
IN GENERAL:
Be careful with the use of your personal information.
Print and keep a maximum of proof of transactions (screen shots, emails) as well as
information collected on the seller.
