Hope you like your new bag. In my experience though MIF doesn't mean the bag is flawless. My ALMA BB is made in France as well and the base doesn't sit straight. I haven't used it enough yet to see if it will flatten eventually.
As long as you don't mind the flaws in your alma then you should be fine. I'm just one of those that can't ignore certain imperfections especially if im paying that much for a bag

I have to ask .. As debating this bag for awhile … can a hard eyeglass case and a rayban softer aviator sunglass case along wit zippy coin purse and iPhone max fit in alma bb?
I personally think that would be a tight fit for everything. But it could work. I always put my LV passport holder, soft nylon eyeglass case (from Prada), my keys and my iPhone Max 14 in it along with a few lipsticks and lotion, and it fits perfectly. It zips up nicely without the bulge. So yours might work.
 
I haven’t posted here in a long time. I just pulled the trigger on an Alma bb in monogram. It doesn’t have a tag saying where it was made. Is this normal or is this bag just made in one country? I know there are no date codes anymore and there is something in it that is scannable. Still not sure about it. I don’t carry much anymore so I don’t need anything bigger. So space isn’t an issue.

Newly made bags are now microchipped. Check on the bottom side of the base of the bag,where the made in is embossed. You are able to see where it's made. If it says Louis vuitton Paris it was made in the us. Hope this helps

I believe that’s because it was made in the USA. It would say Made in France or Spain (My Epi one does) but my Damier ebene was made in USA and it just doesn’t say anything besides the Louis Vuitton Paris. Also no date code either. I don’t know where they scan the bag to authenticate- does anyone here know?

I also finally bought the Alma BB and hunted through the bag several times to find a tag - I guess I’m so used to seeing the tags and markings that Coach, Dooney and even Gucci put in their bags. I know the bag is authentic and I do have the info on the microchip but there is something reassuring about having tags in handbags.

Mine is embossed on one of the sides as in pic:

I did post a pic in this thread few months ago, the color is called camel, it was a limited edition from the ramadhan collection 2023, only available in South Asia and Middle East.

Ahhh yes that collection. Beyond jealous that this wasn’t available worldwide. This seems like such a beautiful neutral that will be classy for years to come. Thank you for sharing!
