I have a Raisin Day bag. It has faded some but not a lot. But I didn't use it daily. I will see if I can show the difference in the color of the bag and the mirror which hasn't faded.

This is the same handbag that the person said had just come out of the "spa".

Description: Balenciaga classic city bag
Hi ladies! Can you please help me authenticate this bag? The stitching is good and the rings are souldered nicely but I have doubts on the name tag since it is in leather not metal plate. I hope you can help! Thanks!

I purchased this one online few days ago from one of the largest department stores. I was really surprised that the bag they sent to me was made six years ago. Does this situation usually happen?

I feel badly chatting in this thread :shame: but since you asked...
I actually have the exact pouch in Raisin. I bought it to use inside my City bags- so it's not exposed much. It has maintained the color very nicely.
I also have a Raisin City and it's faded just a bit but the color is still pretty.
I use Leather Honey on my bags a few times per year, It conditions & protects them & also deepens the color a smidge, however, it's temporary, the deepening & fades with time. I believe the L Honey helps prevent some color fading.
**I'm gonna tiptoe out of this thread now..** :back2topic:
The gals will need the required photos to properly authenticate.
Rivet, Tag front & back & the bale are an absolute necessity.
Examples are in the first post of this topic.
Hello, please click on my undersigned link to see exact photos needed for authentication
Hello, the photos in the listing are not enough for authentication. I authenticated based on photos posted
Hello, the bag looks fine. No red flag 
Perhaps the store is clearing old stock? You should check directly with them
