Can you post another rivet pic? This one's a little weird looking; I'm sure authenticators will want another to compare. (Also is the leather peeling off the edge of the back of the tag or is just the lighting??)

I know it's difficult, but I'm having so much trouble with the glare on the back of the tag. If you could try again to get a shot in which all the imprinting shows, I'd like to take another look. Also, need to see a bale at a correct angle.

As is, I agree with atlantis1982, the rivets are wonky compared to other new Bals.
 
Hi Ladies,

I found a lovey Velo on ebay and asked the seller for addtional photos of the inside tag as well as the bale (no response yet).

Maybe you could be so kind to take a look a the auction nonetheless?!

I spotted and purchased immediately at about 4 AM E.S.T what i am fervently hoping and praying is an authentic 2004 or 2003 Red PH First bag, but it seems almost "too good to be true" since it is purported to be in like new condition, so I am justifiably feeling very apprehensive and anxious that it may be counterfeit. :-* The color appears to be that of 2003 Red, but the alleged receipt that comes with the bag is dated 2004. I purchased it from Vestiare Collective from a reputable seller named Sophie with a "trusted profile" and already paid the duty/import fees too in advance, and in the comments section, there is someone alleging that they believe it is fake and why they think so.

Anyways, my only area of expertise in authenticating Balenciaga bags are those with G21 hardware from 2007 --2011. I have no experience whatsoever in buying Bal oldies, and this would be my first, so I truly have no idea if I have just been duped or whether I have serendipitously stumbled upon an exceedingly rare jewel, and I would be deeply grateful for any help in authenticating you can provide. Obviously, adequate pictures have not been provided, but I am hoping and praying that with your expertise,Bal intuition, considerable experience, and well-honed authenticating instincts, that you might be able to infer anyways the bag's authenticity or lack thereof from the pictures that are included. Thank you so much in advance for your assistance!! ;)

According to the seller's replies to questions, the bag is "sold with the receipt, extra straps, quality control, and dust bag. Perfect condition, inside and out.the bag was purchased at the Balenciaga store in 2004 in New York (invoice provided the shop) it was brought a few hours on one occasion and perfectly preserved in its dustbag and box in the dressing room."
