Differences between a real designer hand bag and an imitation?

Im looking at some sites online and some stores in person. the purses look exactly like the authentic ones from LV, Chanel, Gucci, Juicy Couture.. how would I know the actual difference between the handbags? if one i can get for less than the designer itself

Let’s take lv bag for example.If you want know more,please follow the link. www.louis-vuitton-sale-uk.com
Here’s some info I pulled off of Ebay. I hope it helps you out!
When you DO buy Louis Vuitton from a boutique… it will come with tags- but they are NEVER attached to the bag. Other designer labels like Chloe, Marc Jacobs, Coach will do this- but at Louis Vuitton- tags are usually tucked into a pocket or included in an envelope that comes with your receipt. This little white plastic LV circle tag…. with an attached tag? This was NEVER made by Louis Vuitton. If you see it attached, it isn’t real.
This weird yellow card was NEVER used by Louis Vuitton… if you see one included in an auction you are looking at, it is not authentic.
For some reason, the fakers all use this dark bronzed envelope with a Louis Vuitton sticker on it (to the left below- with the lock on it)… LV has NEVER used anything like this.
Finally, Louis Vuitton has never attached a canvas swatch sample to a bag like the one with the turquoise LV on it attached to the right side of the handle in the following picture…
When you buy an authentic Louis Vuitton item from a Louis Vuitton boutique or eLuxury… you will get two tags- and MAYBE a care booklet. If you have it mailed to you by your favorite SA, she MAY include a little card thanking you for shopping with Louis Vuitton or whatever. That’s it. One tag will say “Louis Vuitton” and will say what the bag is made of- whether it’s monogram canvas, vernis, epi etc. The other will have the model number, the correct french name of the bag and the bar code. Notice that they are NOT attached to the bag and do NOT have the little plastic round LV white thing the fakers love to use. The tags would look like this:
***PLEASE NOTE*** The fact that a bag you are looking at has cards that look like this does NOT mean that it’s authentic… The fakers do a better job duplicating the tags & receipts than they do with the bags!
4. The French Company & Vintage:
During a period between the late 70′s and 80′s, Louis Vuitton licensed out production of its monogram pieces to the French Company. This is a US based production company, who produced pieces that were intended for distribution in the market here in the United States. These items will either have a marking that says that the item was produced under a special license, have a US based department store logo, or a particular tyvek French Company tag inside. French Company items will NOT typically have date codes and they do look slightly different when compared to vintage French made Louis Vuitton.
Please refer to my guide to buying Louis Vuitton French Company items for more pictures & explanation…
Other vintage Louis Vuitton items (not French Company)… may look different from what you expect today- may styles are discontinued and are really hard to get. Like the French Company items, vintage French made Louis Vuitton items often used treated leather in some of these vintage pieces, like this vintage Dauphine:
Notice that the leather is darker and treated… this is not the untreated vachetta leather with a patina…
These vintage pieces could also have Talon or Eclair zipper pulls- not the Louis Vuitton LV pulls that we have today…
