Just bought a bag off the LV website. The bag arrived today and I checked the datecode. The datecode starts with LM. According to google that’s made in Spain? But the bag is stamped with made in France?
 
Hello everyone, very long time no see!

Hope everyone is doing well x

My husband just bought me an Artsy MM Damien Azur. Stamped Made in Spain ( I am in the UK) I am having real trouble locating the date code. Can anyone help me please? I know it can be on a leather tag inside the zipper pocket on some Artsy models, but there definitely isn’t a tag in there on mine. I also believe it can be heat stamped inside a pocket, but again, I’m having no luck finding it.

Any suggestions? Could it be that the heat stamp has ‘fade’ with age?

Thank you so much for your time x

Where did he purchase it from? A boutique or private seller?
 
Hi! Can anyone help me find the date code for the multipochette accessoires- specifically for the bigger pochette? I was able to find it for the coin pouch and the mini pochette but failed for the last piece. I also bought the bag online.

Thanks for all your help!
 
I bought an alma bb from the louis vuitton store but it has a date code of ML1189. I just wanted to know if anyone else has this kind of date code?
My new palm springs mini has ML0250 date code also made in France. I don't see ML online either so maybe its a new factory? I chatted with LV online and they wouldn't tell me either due to "counterfeit". If ML is a new factory in France it would be nice to know the location/city for a peace of mind. I did recently see a video on youtube of a palm springs mini replica and it also had a ML date code (new zipper model) so this had me worried.
