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!

oh I see! Thanks for the information! Btw is the Color code the last few numbers after The alphabet code? I super love this mini. My first bal and all. But just a little disappointed with the slouch!

Colour code is 6310. ETA: I'd check the bag interior very carefully for any signs of use. Look at the seams in the interior zipped pocket, the slip pockets. Slouch is generally consistent with use.

I don't see anything that would lead me to think the bag wasn't authentic. I can't explain why it's softened, the agneau bags are very shiny when new, maybe that coating helps to keep them stiffer, I really have no idea. We only have the seller's word and while I'm by no means saying she isn't honest we can't verify what she says either.
I've put the question out to a couple of the other authenticators on this thread to see if they have any input on the matter.

Aw thanks for confirming the bag is authentic! The leather isn’t very shiny as you would expect from a Chevre. It seems to be like a Hermes Chevre (without that shine, you speak of) vs the Bal Chevre. So I am quite confused as well. But let’s see what the others think!

I second Muchstuff, the bag looks perfectly authentic to me, too
but call me a grumpy old *itch, but i can't believe it was not used.
Carefully, very accurately, very gently, but used.
It's 2017 bag, 3 y/o, i really doubt it was kept in the dustbag without use AT ALL for all this time.
It does not reduce her beauty, or value, since there are no visible signs of wear, but it has developed that yummy slouch that Bal bags are known and loved for :heart:

Hi Guys - Could you please help me authenticate this bag? Thank you!

I recently got it online during NM 4th of July sale. I just got a little scared after reading posts here of 2 people getting fake Balenciaga and Fendi from the store. I know these are very rare instances but given the amount of money I spent, I needed some reassurance. I was honestly a little disappointed with how they packaged the bag. As you may notice, the dust bag is very crumpled. They placed it inside the bag and the bag came in a really small box. I am just comparing it with my experience ordering directly from the Mulberry store. The bag was nicely packaged and even came in with the store paper bag.

Hello, is it okay for you to authenticate this bag. Photos are provided by the seller. I am new to the brand and I just want to make sure. I cannot find this color on the color swatches from Balenciaga but the seller said it is Taupe bought in early 2018.

Item name: Belenciaga Mini in Taupe with GHW
Seller: from an app called Carousell

thank you for your help!ECF7E00E-D568-4868-9CC3-DD2615F23125.png1CB58917-1879-4C15-9450-064A0677784F.png9D6AB07F-97BE-4252-9A92-24C7FBF5D23B.png52B7D445-594B-4B22-8926-68FE8D5C2B53.png246A8661-0D3A-4F60-B360-7B9085E13922.png
