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,
I found this listing online and I never seen this bag before. Apparently it's called papier hobo.
Can you authenticate this please

The tag looks consistent with the Papier line but I can't find either this style or this colour, more research needed.

Papier hobo, I found one listing on the internet it's not that common from Papier line.
The thing that I concerned the tag consist only numbers without the letter.
Seller has no id card or dustbag either, If you need more photos please let me know. I can ask the seller

I'd like a photo of the back of the zipper head and any rivets or hardware. Also a pic of the tag back facing the camera would be nice, rather than on an angle.

I've looked around and have only found two or three and the tags all look slightly different. I think it's authentic.
 
Hello,

I just received this and have some serious doubts about authenticity. I’m familiar with Balenciaga but no expert and this one has a lot of differences between another Metallic Edge that I have. Can someone give me a second opinion? It would be much appreciated.
