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!

I have a few reds that I liked on this website. I’ve asked about their authentication validity (not being familiar with the website) so I will not post here all the likes I have there. Since I was redirected to this thread, here are a few of my likes there:

Thank you so much, muchstuff! Now, the most difficult thing to do is to choose. I am torn between these two and a darker red one from another site. Thought that searching in a higher price range would bring better kept bags but that is not always the case.
I was browsing TRR mostly but then I found some reviews about their authentication being not very reliable so started googling for more sites.

If really is a bag by bag search. I do buy from TRR but you have to be careful. Their photos aren’t good enough IMO, they often don’t show wear that they describe in their listing, rarely show corners etc.

My thoughts exactly. I’ve bought from them a few bags and luckily they were in very good condition. But their photos are not showing most of the described wear.
This would be my first Bbag and I might get two from the beginning because I am eyeing a few and it’s so difficult to decide. I browsed the online stores for a new one but none of them were close to what I am looking for.

Authentic in my opinion, thanks for the extra pics (original post was 19627. :smile:) For any future asks please be sure to post pics right way up and full sized.

Oh sorry, didn’t realize they were uploaded as thumbnails. The tag itself is bent, so the best I can do is take pictures from different angles. As mentioned I’m not really able to see the numbers on it myself, so not sure I will be able to take a picture that’s good enough. Also, there’s fabric covering the rivet.

@janecm another TPF member messaged me to point out some other discrepancies she noticed as a Cagole owner. After all of the consideration on this bag I'm calling yours not authentic.

sorry, i was away for a bit, while this is a relatively new model and i don't have as much data on this one as on some older models, i tend to agree with @muchstuff a few markers are off, i would recommend to avoid

I just found another Bbag in great condition here:

Item: First Classic Studs Bag Leather

Balenciaga First Classic Studs Bag Leather Pink 109261105

Online Sale - Authentic Pink Balenciaga First Classic Studs Bag Leather at Rebag.com. Guaranteed genuine! Financing available. 109261105

Any help is appreciated with this one. They don’t name the color on their website which is not helpful for a newbie like me. I am torn between this one and one of the previous ones I posted. Not because of the price, but mostly because of the color and the size (I’d love a medium size bag, not a large one). Thank you in advance for your help!

Authentic in my opinion, it might be an 09 poupre. If you don't mind my opinion, I think it's very overpriced. I consider the First a small bag but then I like big bags.
