Hi ya hun I asked the seller and she stated the bag has been re coloured by handbag spa. I have taken a chance and purchased as this one seems to be authentic but I will take more pics once it arrives I hope I’ve not purchased a replica. Xx

Sounds good.

Sounds good.

Here we are sweetie it came today. I took it in to my local Fenicks that has a handbag clinic booth and the lady had 2 city bags there and compared them and authenticated my bag I am so over the moon. The bag has been re coloured by handbag spa and I am awaiting a quote to have some cracking to the top piping sorted and the handles re laced. I am in love.

Details all look fine. How does the leather feel? A lot of people say the feel of the leather changes when the bags are redyed.

The leather feels like butter, the lady I spoke to today actually said the same thing some times it stiffens the leather but in this case it hasn’t at all. I have been stung with a replica before and the difference in the weight of the bag and the feel of the leather itself is just amazing. The real one is also a lot slouchier. Honestly I am over the moon. Thank you again so much for all your help. Xx

I'm not comfortable commenting on this without better pics, sorry. I need to see close ups of the rivets, bale and back of the zipper head.

Dear authenticators,
Found this Pompom and could not resist…
A little bit stained and the corners have seen better days but the price was very good and I wanted an everyday summer bag I wouldn’t baby…
Are there any red flags concerning authenticity in your opinion? TIA!

Thank you so much; I thought so based on the limited photos in the posting.

Also not sure if I want to mess with Vieux Rose after I found an old much-heated thread discussing the color, haha!!

The Day from TRR arrived today. I appreciate your opinion on authenticity

TRR link: https://www.therealreal.com/products/women/handbags/handle-bags/balenciaga-leather-handle-bag-ch8kk

The leather feels super silky and I the color. However the bag is definitely not in "very good condition with minor wear throughout" as described by TRR.
