Louis Vuitton Date Code

[inmemoryofhim]

I want to Buy a used Louis Vuitton Alma bag, but when I look up the date code it says 2004 Made in France, but the bag is stamped made in USA on the outside on the bottom side.

Is it possible that it can still be authentic?

Nothing can be authenticated without pictures. If the item is in a listing, you can post the item number or a link to the listing.

As Alberta said any info is useless without clear focused pictures. That being said, there are date codes that cross over both France and US. The most common is SD.

Post pics...

OK,  it has SD0014 so probably cross over.  Thank you

That doesn't mean that the bag is authentic. Counterfeiters can and do put "valid" date codes on fakes. 

You need to verify that the bag is authentic!

Again, you need to post the listing if you really want to know as we’ve both told you. Never assume.
