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!

Hi aalinne_72, since i (still) don't know how to attach links here (only using my celfon so i'm still trying to figure that out) i just captured the Ebay item# for your reference. I also had this bag authenticated couple of days ago (post#2624/#2625 - Oct.10) .... i hope this also helps. I really appreciate your effort and time looking into this bag

Hello, can anyone authenticate a Balenciaga bag from EBay? My problem is, I don't know how to post the link to the item ... been searching for the "share this item" link for the bag but I can't find it (sorry, totally not tech-savvy). Anyway, I copied the item no. and here it is .... Ebay item#182306285257 and is described as Balenciaga Motorcycle Bag (GLYCINE PURPLE with classic antique brass hardware). I hope somebody can take a look at it .... TIA!!!

Hello,
Here's a link to the listing http://www.ebay.com/itm/Balenciaga-...285257?hash=item2a724d26c9:g:Lx8AAOSwzaJX-BfR

This is authentic but a couple of things to note, it is a City, it isn't a "part time" as the seller has listed.
It is NOT Glycine as listed, it's "Metallic Purple" and a special edition bag made for Neiman Marcus in 2011.
I happen to own this bag & it's a pretty color but the leather is extremely papery.

I just wanted you to be aware & informed of the details but yes, this bag is authentic.

Definitely, it's not authentic to me.
Thank you aksaiyo for finding the listing, I tried to through Item number but didn't appear, don't know why.
Seller stated it as a Part Time, but obviously, it's a City. Also, Glycine is light purpple shade from S/S 2012 and tags pictured on listing are from 2011, they probably correspond to another bag.
As I commented, there is no silver plate and every City with regular hardware should.

This is Glycine

aalinne, did you see the post where Pika said the bag was actually metallic purple and that she owns it as well? Special edition made for Neiman Marcus in 2011? I'm going to PM her and ask re: the tags.
