Authenticate This! Balenciaga!

They don't? I am so surprised, I really though that they were. What was the tip-off?

I think Raffaello is like styledrops in that it has never really been solidified whether their bags are authentic....so better to be safe and order from retailers we know are authorized.

If there is ever any question, I would beware, because there are SO many fakers out there :evil:.

RAFFAELLO-NETWORK AND STYLEDROPS ARE legit- I HAVE ORDERED FROM BOTH...

Whoa, i'm totally confused now. I guess it's better to just order from someone you trust.

I've ordered Prada shoes from them. They are quick. The shoes arrived the next day.

Please use this thread to point all authenticity questions about Balenciaga auctions, stores selling Balenciaga or your personal B-Bags.

I agree with the notion that the most knowledge about a brand lies within the brand's sub-forum. Additionally, this thread can build up to a centralized reference for buyers to learn about faux bags and how to spot them.

Thanks!

An already established reference can be found here.

Okay--let me start off by posting photos of the Bronze Classique that I bought from BlueFly the day before the whole mess atarted with all the fakes. I was worried about this one as well, because of all the fake Cities, but it seems to check out (I understand others have gotten authentic bronze Classiques as well, just not Cities). In case I've missed anything that's off though, I figure multiple pairs of eyes are better than one pair, so here are the photos. Let me know if you see anything that isn't right. Also, there seems to be a Euros price on a piece of paper taped onto the tag. Does anyone recognize what retail store this may have come from by the tag?
