Authenticate This Balenciaga

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!
 
If you file a claim you should get an oficial certificated proof of authentication by "Authenticate4you" for example. That is what Paypal will ask you for.. but, have you paid already?

Post#405

Yes, I paid and have received the clutch already. I just submitted a claim through ebay. Fingers crossed the seller doesn't put up a fight!
 
HELP PLEASE. I have just purchased this on ebay. If fake I will need to return it. I belive it is a Day Hobo.
I am especially worried about the strings on the handle !

So far looks good. Please ask seller for a straight on & close up shot of the front & back of the serial plate showing "Made in Italy" taken just like my example. Once you get these, resubmit your request citing posting # and someone will help you out

Please see page 2 of this forum for the right pictures & position they need to be. http://forum.purseblog.com/balencia...ics-for-balenciaga-authentication-741442.html
Metallic purses are difficult to take pictures without glare. With these picture you have provided dark, off angle & out of focus it looks fake.
Resubmit your request citing post #409 with the right pictures & someone will help you out.
 
Regarding post # 408 . Day hobo
I attach additional photos of the tag inside the bag. There is NO metal tag - just the leather...
Are there any other things I should look for ?
And then it is like the leather on the bottom of the bag looks different ?? (

#1 missing key features. Please see page 1 of this forum for the right angle & required pictures > http://forum.purseblog.com/balencia...ics-for-balenciaga-authentication-741442.html <

Once you get these from the seller(s) resubmit your request citing posting #414 and someone will help you out.
