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!

Hi thank you for your reply. The bag is not with me at the moment, i am planning to buy it. And the seller only gave me these photos are when i asked for details photos

You could try telling her exactly what you need for photos. Check out the link in the post at the top of the page for examples.
 
Hi! New to this place, but grateful for all the insights!

May I ask for the experts’ help in authenticating this?

The thing is, I can’t place what the model of the bag is. Can’t even seem to find similar ones online. I’ve tried Reporter and Neo Classic, but I can’t find something exactly like this. It looks, feels, and smells high-end and authentic, but will need somebody else’s expert eyes and more extensive knowledge of Balenciaga bags to help.

The straps are attached to the bag via a buckle. It’s not like the usual detachable hooks I see in Balenciaga bags. I also haven’t seen a Balenciaga mirror with gold frames.

Serial number reads: 420854 1000 D 002125

Thank you so much in advance!

does not look good to me, but i would like to have a clearer shot of the back of the tag, preferably in natural light and without bending the tag

I hope this works! Tried to take a better photo with its very limited opening. Thank you!

I’ve only ever seen a similar one in two other pages. One in Japan (https://brandear.jp/kakosatei/shouhin/23519930), then another in a blog (https://www.spottedfashion.com/2016/04/27/balenciaga-springsummer-2016-bag-collection/).

actually this looks good
seems this pouch was from a limited edition 2016 SS Papier range Frame, they came with a metallic frame around the mirror, this should be calfskin
