Thanks again, found it. Its actually black against red, so once I saw it, it was not that hard, unlike some previous ones stamped into the fabric. And it is an MI code, one I never saw before, but its MIF!
 
Check along side seams in all slip pockets, use a flashlight


I did that and couldn't find it. I called LV and she said they're making them so it isn't always visible. Since I bought it at a boutique I'm not going to worry about it. She also said that those codes are for their use when they need to repair something. Thanks for answering back!!!

They are quite difficult to spot on the ZCPs but it will be there ... and it will be visible. If they're not visible then why tell you they use them for repair purposes - LOL!

One thing I try to do is look for the same item on sale on eBay and see if the seller has photoed the code. From their pics, I can sometimes get a better idea of exactly where to look. Just today I did that on my Kusama Zippy after looking unsuccessfully myself,

Hi, just a quick question about a date code in Mahina L. Bought it in 2012 but the datecode is on the leather tab inside the pocket. So it is not stamped. Is it correct or fake? Thanks
