Hmm.. Funny thing is that I saw in a boutique a week ago the Alma bb monogram and was preety flawless. If i was not after the epi I would have purchased it.

Any other experiences with loose/bubbly interior for the epi's in the microchip era ?..

Hi. I have an epi alma bb in the indigo color. Bought it online 3 months ago. If by “bubbly” you mean that the interior is a bit “lose” then yes. Mine is like that too. Meaning the interior lining isn’t attached to the bag and it makes some waves if you look closely. To be honest I hadn’t even noticed before reading your questions and it doesn’t bother me. But I will say that LV quality is far from perfect in general and I see some asymmetries and imperfections in my bag. For example when it’s standing the 4 feet don’t touch the surface evenly. Also the bottom smooth leather strip looks uneven depending on the angle you’re looking at.
Although I didn’t return the bag because I also wanted it for a long time, these small details did put me off buying from LV. And by the way my bag is made in France (where the “maitres artisans” are supposed to be the best!)

I just received a replacement Alma BB in monogram. Is it normal for the inside lining to be loose? It looks like there are a few air pockets inside. Is the lining supposed to be flat against the canvas?

Interesting..I just got my today and noticed that there are a few of air pockets on one side of the bag. I wasn’t sure if it was normal until seeing this post. I ordered from the store by phone and wonder if I can return it to different store near me.
