I can see why another member doubts the authenticity of the bag. The datecode is totally wrong. It makes no sense whatsoever. Datecodes on bags made before 2007 are read the following way: the first and third digits are the month and the second and last digits are the year. The datecode on my wallet is CT1005. That translates to 10/05 or October 2005. Your datecode says AC0005. That's 00/05? There's no zero month obviously! Also the stamp that says "Louis Vuitton, Paris, Made in France" seems off. I am sorry to say this, but I also doubt the bag is real.
