Thanks and be well!
 
@Sassy_dietitian712 I did a bit of looking at Alexander Wang’s iridescent hardware on the Marti and the Rockie under his own brand and it’s very similar. I’m guessing it’s authentic but I haven’t yet found another Bal with that same bale. We’ll see if ksuro sheds any light on this.
 
Hi,
Been drooling over this all weekend but wonder if it is legit since it doesn’t cost and arm and a leg? I believe I am missing a photo or two at this time. Listing is still active. I appreciate any input on this one.

Item Name:Balenciaga Classic Metallic Edge Iridescent Black City Bag
Item Number:224132174348
Seller ID: vo0o0iill
Link:https://www.ebay.com/itm/224132174348
I went back for another look and you can see the bale in one pic but it looks odd, let me check with @ksuromax...
the bale is wrong, this i can tell you confidently.
It must be the same as any other bale Bal's been using for years.
i can't clearly read the back of the tag, which letter is there? C?

Hello everyone,

I hope everyone is safe!

I am thinking about buying this balenciaga city bag in Lilas to start my first renovation and dye of a luxury handbag (which explain the overall state of the Bah and the interesting price... which is also quite disturbing) but I’m not sure this one authentic. That’s why I am kindly asking your help with this authentification :-)

Hello Ksuromax,

I apologise for missing pictures and important details in my last post.

I tried to get more pictures from the seller, mentioning the important parts of the bag that I wanted to see. Please find hereafter the pictures that I received today :

I did not manage to obtain one from the bale but I really hope these pictures are good enough.

Again, thank you very much in advance for your help with this!

Wish everyone a nice day,
