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!
 
Close up of front side of tag, rivet and underside of the zipper (the picture they gave was very small)
The front tag we have is fine, the other two would be helpful. I wish the bale photo wasn't angled , a nice flat bale facing the camera would be good to have if your seller is cooperative.
 
wasnt the pic i sent of the bale flat and facing the camera?

First one is flat and facing the camera so I can see the way the metal wraps around the little post. In your seller's photo it's angled so you can't see that aspect clearly. It doesn't seem like much but it's a detail that can help us determine whether a bale is correct or not.
Just an an FYI, it can be helpful to send the seller examples of what you need. I don't know if anyone ever does this, but the examples are in that link at top of the page.

Oh dear . Well, they don't really understand what we're looking for. This particular bag has one of those wonky tag backs which is why the other photos are important. It's probably OK, but if you have other pics coming anyway let's take a look.

Let’s hope she replies... been asking for photos and going back and forth all week.. and takes her ages to reply
 
:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: true!! I would have probably messed up the picture of the bale as well!!
We look to see the taper at the end and on this particular photo it's hard to tell if it's lying flat or not. I went through all of the other photos and looked at the bales and while there's no really good photo they seem to be OK.
 
Hello Ladies and Gents,

Sorry, the tags photos just aren't clear enough, I know it's hard to do. Don't use the flash, trying going outside in natural light.
Is this better? I can take more.
