Also, with a real bag, if you touch the hardware, it'll be cold metal to the touch...or if the bag's been out in sun, it'll be hot metal to the touch. The hardware on a fake will feel about room temperature.

Good description. I've also noticed that fake Louis bags generally have a different color (more orangey) leather particularly for the handles.
