Authenticate This Balenciaga

IMPORTANT READ-ME

Please see post #1 for complete Balenciaga authentication rules. All requests must be posted in this thread. Authentications are not done via private message or in any other thread.

See the link below for examples of the photos needed and the format they should be in (clear, close up, forward-facing, no angles, right way up, no bends in tags).

https://forum.purseblog.com/threads/required-pics-for-balenciaga-authentication.741442/

A link to the listing in question is required.

It is an authenticator’s right to ignore a request that is not in the proper format. If the listing you are interested in is missing photos it is your responsibility to request them from the seller prior to posting in this thread.

Thanks and be well!

Hello,
Recently purchased this Balenciaga Classic City from Modaselle (Vancouver-based Reseller). I just noticed the tag is different so not sure if this is a new logo?

Hoping someone can help!

Thanks!
This bag is from SS 2016, and Balenciaga has changed the tags a year before that, so yes, it's a normal look for the tag from this collection, and to me it looks legit, but i'd love to see a good close up of the rivets, bale and zipper head from the back. :flowers:

Hi there, can someone please authenticate this bag for me. I have already purchased it so can supply more specific photos if required. Thanks in advance.

Pics if bale and rivets are looking very dark (on my screen, at least), can you post more close ups in better lighting and plus the zipper head from the back?

Thank you very much!

I'm just learning about the metal edge mini Cities, so can only offer my limited experience. Perhaps someone with more information can jump in.
Here's the ebay link, found by using the item number:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/NWT-Balenci...144525?hash=item4b1b46618d:g:0UsAAOSwbiFZXUP~

According to the hardware and imprints, this bag appears to be authentic. However, the other metal edge chevre mini Cities I've seen have a different style number. In my experience, the same style, same season, but gold hardware, the style number should be: 390160. Perhaps the hardware colors have different numbers?

Sorry I can't be more decisive. Hopefully someone watching can help. :confused1:
 
Hi-
I'm very new to Balenciaga and I just received my first new to me town. I would love to have it authenticated for peace of mind. Also if I could get help identifying the color and year. The strap isn't adjustable, so my guess is pre- 2012.
Thanks so much! I hope I've added everything that is needed.
