Hello!
I just bought an LV Garance Rubis from a second-hand luxury website. I was so excited to receive it, and it is a very beautiful bag. However, upon closer inspection, I found two serial/authentication numbers on the bag. One is gold-stamped onto a leather tab inside the removable pochette. The other one is blind debossed onto the underside of the leather part of the zipper. The numbers do not match. The one on the pochette is MI2175 and the one under the zipper is MI2195. I emailed the customer service of the website pointing this out, and they said that because the pochette is removable, that they often produce the pochette separately from the parts of the main bag, and that's why the serial numbers are different.
Have any of you heard of that for Louis Vuitton bags? Does anyone else have a Louis Vuitton Garance bag and can check if it's the same for you?
They don't carry this model in all of the stores in the area where I live, so that's why I can't compare. The sales person I asked didn't know the answer either.....
Thank you in advance for you help!
