I am not certain of its authenticity because there is no serial number. However, the leather and hardware is very similar to other LV products I own. This came into my consignment about three days ago. There are no cracks. The inside has some marks from pens, but it is in otherwise incredibly good condition. I am selling at this price because there is no serial number but it is very beautiful. I do not believe it is authentic, but it looks so close even next to LV products that I purchased myself.
