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!
 
@Asphodel it’s a bit tough to tell how much fading there is with this bag, perhaps ask for a pic outside in more neutral light? Colour looks maybe a little uneven, but again, hard to tell from these pics.

Thank you, that’s a great idea. The seller mentioned that the bag was dry as she hasn’t moisturized it in a long time but said there wasn’t any fading. I will ask for pictures in natural light and post once received.

That's encouraging. There are a couple of spots where the colour appears more saturated but that could just be the lighting.
 
I was hoping someone might help me authenticate a bag? It might be too late since I already won the bid, but the seller gave me some additional photos, but I do not yet have any of the back of the inside tag. I'm new here, (and this is potentially my first balenciaga) so please let me know if I did not post correctly. I read the first post but I don't have all the info. Since it's ebay there's some buyer protection.

Hi and welcome! Can you repost with the link to the eBay listing? The pics aren't ideal, I don't see any cause for alarm but would suggest you repost with all of the needed photos when you get the bag. We'd prefer you to post with full size pics rather than thumbnails.
 
Does it matter that the listing was closed already? As in, whenever I click on the original link it says "item purchased." I don't know if you can see it. But let me copy it from my purchase history!

And I'm so sorry about picture size! I thought they were full sized. Let me try again. Thank you!!!

Here are the pictures again. I downloaded them a different way, so I hope they're bigger!

Thanks again!

The pics on the eBay listing are taken directly from a Fashionphile listing. It may indicate only that she originally bought it there and was too lazy to take good photos but I'll reserve judgement until you have the bag and can post all of the correct photos of the actual bag. (And thanks for posting the pics full size, it really makes a difference).
Sorry, I didn't quote! The info is right above!

Yes, thank you! Should I just contact ebay before it comes? That seems really shady. I can find something and try to get y'all to authenticate ahead of time.

Thank you again, friend
