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 everyone,
I know next to nothing about BAL. My research shows this is a metallic edge F/W 2016? Gris Perle? If this is real, I got the deal of the century. If it is fake, it is a very nice fake and I will still be happy at the price point I paid. This was purchased 2nd hand with no dustbag and no provenance. It is in pristine condition. I cannot find any inconsistenties on the bag. It is definitely real leather but I do not know what kind. It smells amazing, puddles like butter, and so squishy.
Yay or Nay? Even if nay, can you confirm what they are trying to copy? If yay, can you confirm which dustbag would have been put on the bag?
Any information is greatly appreciated. I will happily provide additional photos.

I‘ll let the experts weigh in, but I believe this is fake.

Comment: Hi! Could you guys please take a look at this City? The seller said it's a gift, so she's not sure if the bag is authentic or not. Something seems a bit off to me. There's no shoulder strap, unfortunately. These are all the photos the seller sent to me. TIA!

 

[IntheOcean]

And this is the best photo of the rivets, the lady selling the bag just doesn't seem to understand what is needed, even though I explained three times with examples...

@IntheOcean, it's fake.

 

[IntheOcean]

Thank you, I thought it might be, but wanted to make sure!

@IntheOcean, it's fake.
