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! Please help authenticate this City for me and confirm the color and year if possible. The listing is on FP and originally said mini, however I think the measurements correspond to the Classic. If this is legit, it's a bag I've been wanting for quite some time!

Item Name: Agneau Giant 12 Rose Gold Hardware City Anthracite
Item Number: 868129
Link: https://www.fashionphile.com/p/balenciaga-agneau-giant-12-rose-gold-hardware-city-anthracite-868129

Some requested photos are in the listing but additional photos beyond those in the listing are attached. Thanks!

I don’t see it listed as a mini? Authentic S/S 2011 anthracite G21 City.

Hi all - I just got this Velo on TheRealReal. What do you think? I’m not super experienced with Balenciaga and I’ve seen some very good fakes, so I was a little worried, but I *think* this is OK? I had a hard time getting a good shot of the zipper underside; it’s Lampo.

Definitely a Velo. As usual TRR doesn’t supply the pics needed to authenticate. Nothing’s screaming fake but that’s the best I can do.

Yeah, I’ve been stalking bags on TRR lately and they definitely screw up the names sometimes. The best way to find something specific on there without missing any is to save a more general search by brand name.
