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 purchased the bag and just received it today. I took a bunch of photos (the majority were taken outdoors with direct natural light, a few were taken indoors with indirect natural light). The color is hard to capture accurately (it looks electric blue outdoors, but it looks closer to periwinkle indoors). If you have time, would you mind taking a peek at my pictures? I'd love to know your thoughts on authenticity (and whether the color is outremer). Thank you so much!!View attachment 6128351View attachment 6128352View attachment 6128353View attachment 6128354View attachment 6128355View attachment 6128356View attachment 6128357View attachment 6128358View attachment 6128359View attachment 6128360View attachment 6128361View attachment 6128362

Hi Authenticators,
I have yet another (I know I’m obsessed) bag to ask you about. I am so grateful for your expertise and knowledge.
I’m mostly concerned with repainting on this as I’ve been fooled before.
Please and thank you in advance.

Authentic. Does not appear recolored to my eyes.
(I've noticed a lot of the dyed bags appear on VC- there are certain sellers that do that constantly. I scroll through there sometimes just to practice spotting them, lol.)

OMG! its so true! VC is where both of the repainted bags I bought are from. Interesting that when I resold one bag VC flagged it as repainted but didn't flag it when I bought it! Thank you so much for the reply. I am so glad I can ask the experts here.
