Oh, yes, that makes sense. I didn't think the chip shortage would affect the LV chips too but I guess it all falls under the same thing. I'm also glad to have the date code on mine instead of the chip.Yay! Congrats on your MP
My guess is the global shortage on microchips is causing LV to switch back to classic date codes. I’m happy for this as my Japan MP is special with a date reference I can see. I prefer LV collecting this way ~ makes it more sentimental

You're right, these super simple little RFID tags are really not the kind of chips that big tech manufacturers are short of. Not to mention that Vuitton most likely bough literally tons in advance years ago. But indeed they released quite a few products this year that feature both the RFID tag and the stamp. I got a card holder like that in Summer.
Oh that is so beautiful! Congratulations!I just wanted to share that I’m extremely happy to score the Japan MP today, FINALLY!!! I am a Chanel girl so I rarely posted anything on this forum. Also, these are my first Christmas Animation items so I’m really excited to have them!
I was able to order the Hollywood Damier Azur MP through the Digital Concierge on 9/30, a day before the price increase. Then got the Hollywood passport cover from online. AND today, one new SA came through for me with the Japan MP! OMG! I was in shock and couldn’t believe it! Also, I’ll be leaving for Hawaii this coming Sunday so the SA offered to overnight the Japan MP to me tomorrow so I can get it by Saturday before I leave for my trip! He told me that they normally only do overnight shipping for VIP clients and I’m not but he’s going to do it for me anyway. He’s truly amazing! If you need the best SA please pm me and I’ll share his contact.
Presenting my 3 lovely items. Thanks for letting me share!

Does anyone still waiting for the MP? I preordered in September and still waiting….
Me! I had my name put in the waitlist for the London MP on 13/10. It shows submitted on my order. I am just waiting to see they will be able to fulfill the order
Same here my order submitted on October 1 but still in submitted stateMe! I had my name put in the waitlist for the London MP on 13/10. It shows submitted on my order. I am just waiting to see they will be able to fulfill the order
@NatsumiYuki, @fibbi , and @LvLover1288, I preordered at store, not online. One of my items was canceled today - Xmas China bandeau. I am hoping my other 2 items: London and Japan MP are still coming. Good news that I did place an order today with LV concierge for Hollywood MP. EDT will be 2 weeks. Haven’t got anything from the Xmas line this year ☹
I haven’t gotten anything this year either. When did you place your orders? I’m hoping mine isn’t canceled. I ordered China zippy
@LvLover1288, I preordered at SAks LV on 9/3/21. Today, I called LV customer service and was connected to a very nice representative as she helped me to order the Hollywood MP.
It's finally here!!
London one still pending availability...

This beauty popped up online a few days ago. Not a huge fan of the mono but I don't mind it with a print or pattern. I also really love the blue interior and this one is the only option for blue. I also like the flap being aligned with the bag rather than envelope style after seeing some images of wear on the bag over time.
Are all the Felicie pochette in the Christmas animation made in Spain or elsewhere? It's really the only thing bothering me. All of my pieces are made in France which just as a personal thing I prefer.. This one is made in Spain. Not that I'll probably get an opportunity to exchange it with limited stock but just wanted to know if any of the Felicies are even made in France.

I noticed this on the LV forum and I'm curious what makes a piece "better" if it's made in France, as opposed to made in Spain, USA, etc? Not criticizing, just really curious. I never really had an issue with that before. I know once my Noe comes back from having the full vachetta replaced, it will be made in USA. That doesn't bother me at all. Does that decrease the value of the bags if they're not made in France?
For me it's not about being better as above I said it's just my personal preference. It's a French brand and it used to always be made in France when I bought anything. Now I like to keep it that way in my collection. Nothing about resale or anything else.
But that's me others may have different reasons or preferences..

Seems to be the norm on here, so I was wondering if it was something that makes it better if it's made in France. Thanks for your response though. I can definitely understand.
