Authenticate This Balenciaga

[Vlad]

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!

Sure! Sorry about that. It is a small bag so it is hard to get the camera in to take these photos. I hope these are better. Thank you for your time and please see new pictures

and yes, as @muchstuff said, rivet is still missing

Ok thanks for letting me know i have posted some better photos now i think

nope, this is a stud
the rivet is a screw that is right at the back of the stud
it's flat and has 2 notches

No thank you for your patience ☺️

And it is not strange that the stronga have a seem in them ? They usually don’t i think

Not authentic, sorry.

Thank you SO much for your quick reply. Damn, really sad to hear that I understand that you can't disclose details as to why it is fake, but could you please confirm whether it is just the rivets that are a giveaway, or other details as well? Ty.

well, this is not typical, but could be due to texture of the leather, smooth and soft leather would stay glued together, croc embossed is stiffer and might not
P.S. i have checked my saved stock pics, seems Bal did not sew the tassels, but the previous owner could, perhaps? if they split during use

It is typical for these bags. I'd noticed it previously in my Bal boutique. It's also only one thickness of leather not two.

maybe they started without sewing, and then later started sewing them???

It's just the croc from what I saw.
