A link to the listing in question is required.

Thanks and be well!

Hi Ladies,

Sorry to bother you but can anyone tell me if there's any red flags on these? Thank you so much xx

I looked at the photos earlier and didn't see anything glaring but bracelets can be so tricky.
The black one is for sure ok.. The thing that bothers me about the lighter one is the faded numbers on the back, they don't usually do that.

But I don't see any obvious red flags.. Is the texture, thickness, leather scent & all that as it should be?
Ya know, those details you can only check in person.. :biggrin:
Do you recall where you bought them? That might be a clue as well.

Hello dear Authenticators,
could you please verify this? I bought it, but seller didn't send it yet and I found out too late about your wonderful forum.
I hope you can manage with the pictures on post, no bale though.
Thanks for your invaluable help.

Thank you so much for the help! Comparing both side by side, both are similar when it comes to texture, scent and thickness. The numbers at the back are actually not faded though it seems like it in my pic. So If the black is authentic, Im sure the light blue/grey one is authentic as well. I also just saw the price tag from the store for the light colored bracelet so that also put my mind at ease. Thank you so much! Have a fab day xx

Please help me authenticate. The only thing is the lampo or B on the zippers, everything else matches an authentic description. This is a 2012 giant hardware gold balenciaga city

Hello,
Are you certain this is a 2012 bag? Where did you purchase?
There is a known issue that 2010 bags with RGG hardware had smooth zippers..
Everything else does looks ok.. How do you know the year of the bag? Is it possibly 2010? And possibly Rose Gold HW? It looks like Rose Gold in some of the photos.

Perhaps one of the other gals knows of reg GG hardware with this zipper anomaly...
