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!

Hello, im not able to authenticate this. Seems that this color is not found in the F/W 2013 color chart.

Hey Girls! I have been stalking this thread for a while, and finally have something to contribute! Would greatly appreciate your expert help in authenticating this Bal City [FYI- the original owner left the plastic cover on the mirrored tag]-

Thanks for the reply! I was wondering about this, myself, so I asked in the Bal ref forum about black not being in the F/W 2013 color chart, because I've read they make black every season, and I got a reply saying that they do make black every season, so it would be legit for a black Bal to have a 'I' letter tag from fall 13.

**EDIT: after closer inspection of the color, it seems closest to Gris Tarmac from S/S 13, however the tag doesn't match the respective season for the color! Obviously, the tags don't lie, but I'm so perplexed because every other authenticity detail of this bag appears spot-on. Based on the season/tag discrepancy, I have to assume there's something off.

Considering purchasing this bag from someone locally and they have sent me the following photos, and say the bag is auhtehtic. I would like to get this confirmed by some experts! I am actually looking at a few different bags and I will post them separately.

Please let me know if any further photos are needed and I will ask for them before I purchase.

Thanks!

All 3 are fake to me, but feel free to confirm with the expert :smile:

P.S. Regarding the above bag, I did ask the seller to provide pics of the studs and the clips that attach the strap. If you can think of anything else I should ask for, please let me know. Thank you :)
