I've always been curious as to whether or every LV item has a single designated date code location, or if they can vary depending on changes in the production process over time and other variables. If your bags were both made in the same year, I'd be skeptical about it being placed differently from what you've seen on your bag and others around TPF, but I don't have any solid info to back that up.

I'd recommend calling 866-VUITTON and asking them this question. They'd be able to give you a far more informatively substantial response than I can :p Good luck!

I just purchased an epi zippy coin MIF with a TS4112 date code. Can anyone confirm that the new TS code extends to the epi line....I always thought it was exclusive to vernis. Thanks for clearing this up for me!

For the most part they remain in the same place but there are a number of bags that have been produced over the years where the datecode location has changed.

hello
I posted on another thread but I think I may have posted in the wrong one. I just wanted to ask a general question, would anyone know if there is a date code by LV beginning with VP. I have been looking all day but have only found VX and VI and V.I. but no VP. Any help would be grateful thanks, according to the code the bag was made in 2013 so recent. thanks

Never saw VP but our list is not exhaustive

Did you buy the bag from LV directly?

hi addy
thanks,no it was preloved date code VP1113 on ebay uk. I decided not to bother as she was a brand new seller and no matter where I have looked VP just doesn't come up. She said she did have an authentication letter but I decided to steer clear. I'm just going to buy online from LV as we don't have a local store here. thanks

What do you mean by authentication letter? From a recognised organisation??
