Authenticate This Balenciaga

[Ellie Mae]

nope, it's from flosspatrol

sorry for the confusion

Well, don't contact flosspatrol, as that is the seller who appears to be selling the same bag over and over again.. as best I can discern.

You may be right... flosspatrol photo varies from that of orchids. HOWEVER, that fact remains that the flosspatrol black bbag was sold on the 30th, 31st, and is again listed w/ bids. Same photos, same bag. diff buyers...?? So what's up w/ that??

COULD BE SHES TELLING THE TRUTH? YOU KNOW HOW YOU'RE LOOKING FOR A BAL BAG YOU WANT REALLY BAD, SEE ONE AND CLICK? MAYBE THE BUYERS WERE A LITTLE ANXIOUS?
WHY ELSE WOULD EBAY LET HER KEEP PUTTING THEM BACK UP?

Same bag, same auction, same photos.. 3 times?? 3 days in a row... and 2 of them already sold?

LADIES, TAKE A BETTER LOOK AT BOTH PICS. NOTICE THE SLIGHT DIFFERENCE? I THINK WE WERE WRONG!

You got that right!

But ebay has no way to know until someone reports it. They don't look thru the thousands of items listed everyday for duplicate listings or duplicate photos.

And my guess is that the 2nd photo was probably stolen from a diff auction, as it looks like a smaller bag IMO... city vs first

GOOD.. then ebay figured it out themselves. Good for them... about time!
Unfortunately, the two bags that have already SOLD remain intact.

 

[fuchsiafirefly]

HOOOORRRAYYYYY!!!!!!!

 

[Ellie Mae]

I also just noticed that these same auctions were brought up on ATB yesterday for same issues.... this has been an ongoing issue.

The ACTIVE from flosspatrol listing has been removed, the 2 sold listings (same bag, same auction verbage, same photos) have not.

i hope this is an ok place to ask (since im new and really not sure how everything works yet!!) but i was just wondering how you can identify a real balenciaga from a fake. i know they have lampo zippers and serial numbers. but thats about it. i dont want to waste hundreds of dollars on a "real" bag. help!?
