Are you in NYC? I just bought one from Garden city (made in Spain), Neiman Marcus at Roosevelt field still has one (made in USA) and 5th ave flagship had 4 (made in USA). I’ve been seeing it place in cart several days but if you want to check out alignment (like me) I rather buy in store. Let me know if you are interested and I’ll send you my CA contact info for both locations.

I think I’m two years late! Received mine just before xmas 2017 and have only loved it more! It’s most worn bag since and has travelled overseas with me on multiple occasions. Luckily I’ve had no huge flaws BUT I am having major fraying and the gold hardware is becoming silver. I’ve been avoiding taking it to LV in fear that they’ll offer a replacement instead of repair - the alignment seems perfect to me, I don’t want to lose it! 
defo would repair it, pretty sure those are like the easiest repairs on the bag so i dont see why they wouldn'tView attachment 4463949 I think I’m two years late!

Made in USA question....
I have been eyeing this PS mini for a while now, and have been stalking the web-site, but haven't had any luck. I randomly walked into my LV store today and lo and behold they had one in stock. I looked it over and it looked fabulous. (Perfectly aligned etc.) but it had the cheap made in USA tag. I was so disappointed. I just really wanted one made in France. When I asked the SA about it, her comment was "mainly the higher end bags and SLG are made in France or Spain" (I guess 2 gran is not higher end
) anyway, what do you think my chances are of getting one made in France if I wait to get one on the website? or does it matter? should I just enjoy my surprise find or be patient and see if I can get lucky ordering one on-line?
Thoughts?

My PS Mini Reverse is made in France. For me it doesn't matter where it's made. Why would it be cheap if it's made in the USA?
I received one from ordering online 3 weeks ago and it was made in USA so there’s a good possibility you’d receive one from USA if you order online. If the one in store is in perfect condition I’d just take it because these are not easy to come byMade in USA question....

I don't think it's cheap if it is made in the USA. I just have a thing for my Louie's to have the "made in France" stamp, and not the cloth USA tag. Crazy, I guess.
you'll probably get a usa one like others have mentioned. the reverse canvas one is moreso exclusively made in france (i have yet to see one otherwise and i've seen a handful). i get not wanting the cloth tag (i don't think its cute), but i would go with it if you wanted the regular monogram canvas (especially if the bag is in pristine condition)Made in USA question....

From what I've seen all LV made in US bags have a leather tag which has in the middle "Louis Vuitton." If the bag or whatever was made in another country below that it would say "made in [country]." US bags then also have a little cloth loop tag usually in the bottom corner that says "made in US."
I actually just received a reverse from online and it’s made USA. I was really surprised since my regular mono is made in France. It’s perfect though but the cloth tag did throw me off a bit.
what.... are you serious? i'm actually shocked. i've seen a total of 5 reverses and all were made in france. i guess they're doing the reverse minis in usa.
Anyone looking for the PSM mono? My SA has one (made in USA). PM me and I can send you her contact info.
