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!

Good evening. If you would please let me know of you see any red flags on this S/S 2003 Bone/White PH First with Long strap. I just received it in the mail and would love confirmation before I rate and complete the purchase. Thank you in advance and hope you're all having a great week. :smile:

I rarely comment on anything on the authenticate this thread because I don't have the background, but I have a question for the experts. There are many comments online that state that any Bal bag that has an engraved Lampo stamp is absolutely fake. But there is an old thread on tPF with comments that disprove that. Particularly with the 2003 long strap bags. Any comments, as I'm trying to broaden my knowledge, TIA! I've included the link...

Edit, I saw that Conni said in the old link that the engraved Lampo would be correct so all's good. This may be a good piece of info for folks like myself who are still learning! Sooo much to learn...:whut:

alla.miss I own this exact bag (purchased at the Bal boutique) and can vouch for the lightness of the imprint on the tag, it is faint on mine as well. I would be comfortable calling the bag authentic, but if you have any discomfort once you receive the bag, of course repost it.

Desr s.tighe, I received the bag that I previously posted for authentication. All is good about the bag, but the stitches in one place are wrong.. At the shoulder strap near the bale. I contacted Carol Diva already and at first she told the bag is authentic, but when i noticed the stitches and showed to her - not authentic.
I just don't want to keep a fake bag, but also don't want to return an authentic one. Need your opinion please!
Ps the seller has not kept the teceipt.
