Louie Vuitton monogram never used purse

By One4him, 6 June, 2025
Description

The Louis Vuitton purse in these pictures has not ever been used. I believe the name of the purse is Louis Vuitton Monogram Popincourt Long. The purse was given to me a few years ago. I looked at the same purse online on other websites it was sold at $1049.00.

Louis Vuitton Monogram Popincourt Long Handbag (M40008)

📌 Item Description

  • Brand: Louis Vuitton
  • Model: Monogram Popincourt Long (Style Code: M40008)
  • Made In: France (stamped inside)
  • Material: Coated Monogram Canvas with natural Vachetta leather trim and gold-tone hardware
  • Dimensions: ~12" W x 7" H x 3" D
  • Condition: Mint/Unused
  • Year Estimate: Although you noted possibly 1972, the Popincourt Long style was introduced in the early 2000s, not the 1970s. The bag is not vintage from the 70s but is still considered a discontinued and collectible model.

🔍 Authentication Overview

Based on the images provided:

  • âś… The heat stamp inside is consistent with authentic LV embossing.
  • âś… The model number (M40008) matches the Popincourt Long.
  • âś… Monogram alignment and stitching quality appear consistent with Louis Vuitton standards.
  • âś… Natural patina on vachetta leather looks authentic for age.
  • ⚠️ One element not visible is the date code (often located in a side seam or pocket), which helps confirm production location and year.

Conclusion: The bag appears authentic, but to fully authenticate, locate and verify the date code inside the bag.

đź’˛ Current Market Value (2025)

This model has been discontinued, which can increase its value among collectors. Based on current secondary market listings:

Sale Venue

Price Estimate

Private Sale (e.g., FB Marketplace, OfferUp)

$850–$1,100 USD

eBay / Poshmark (verified condition)

$950–$1,300 USD

Rebag / Fashionphile / TheRealReal

$700–$1,100 USD (after commission)

 

🔸 Since your bag is unused and in mint condition, it is on the higher end of these values.

🛠️ Next Steps & Recommendations

âś… To Sell:

  • Include photos of the date code to support authentication.
  • Photograph corners, strap wear, zipper pull, and interior.
  • Create listings on:
    • Fashionphile
    • Rebag
    • TheRealReal
    • eBay (include closeups, serials, and tags)

âś… For Professional Appraisal:

  • Recommended if you plan to insure, consign, or get formal resale documentation.
  • Look for a certified luxury handbag appraiser or visit a Louis Vuitton store for informal confirmation.
