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!
 
Just checking to make sure you saw Pika's reply to your earlier post. There's no rivet pic and the bale shot doesn't show the bale itself in it's entirety. I'm not an authenticator but nothing jumps out screaming fake to me with the new pics either. I know it's a pain having to ask for more photos but it's the only way to be certain. Hopefully someone else will chime in, sorry I can't be of more help!

Sorry I'm being such a noob in posting for help. I had to google what's a bale and rivet and hopefully i got it right this time :)

I have another day to trigger a return. Will someone take a closer look for me please?
It feels legit but I'm only iffy about the hardware (my first silver) and also the strap feels shorter than it should be at 34 inches, bale to bale.

Can you post a clearer pic of the rivet? The side with the two little indents in it? Sorry, I can't recall, but did you post a pic if the back of the zipper head? That's says lampo? If not please do...
 
Sorry, you've landed on the Balenciaga Handbag authentication thread.
Hi-
Would you be able to help me? I bought a Balenciaga bag on overstock. They say it is a 2015 city bag but the tag looks different otme and the zippers have a B on it. Would you be able to tell if it is a fake?

While not commenting on the authenticity of your bag the tag style and zipper head are consistent with the newer bags. Could you please post pics of the bale and rivet as well as a photos of the bag itself?
 
Found in a thrift shop for $4.99, and probably too good to be true, but I thought I'd post it just in case. Could it be an authentic older bag?

Not an authenticator, just throwing my two cents worth in...there are all sorts of vintage Bals I'm not at all familiar with, but both of these bags have tags in them that have Asian characters. Plus the slang word "fave" is on the interior tags. Pretty sure Bal wouldn't use that...The tags are also in the third person (Balenicaga is known for THEIR very ...). Balenciaga Paris is all you should see. Also, look at the quality...
