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!

Also, any suggestions on what exactly to email the seller - seems like it's a legitimate resale/thrift situation and more likely an honest mistake but I still am having trouble writing up a message...
I'm 99.9% sure this is fake but please wait for a Veteran Authenticator to come on line & make a comment/suggestion to you.

Thank you mmd131 - agreed, even before I researched I could tell by the feel and overall look and that's with knowing next to nothing about B.

Side question - was this size/color combo even made? Having a hard time finding a silver metallic in this or one size up.
 
Hello Everyone! Unfortunately, this has only been my second time posting in here, so I'm not sure if I'm doing this the right way, but I was wondering if I could get additional sets of eyes on this:

Item Name (if you know it): Balenciaga Motorcross Giant 21 City Bag in Gris Tarmac
Link (if available): https://www.therealreal.com/product...els/balenciaga-motocross-giant-21-city-bag-83

I did not yet purchase this bag and therefore don't have any additional photos. However, I read some pretty terrible reviews about The Real Real, so I started questioning my possible purchase.
 
Looks fine, no red flag. :amuse:

Hi Ladies, could anyone please authenticate this giant city for me? The pockets inside the bag seem to be in weird shape and there': even a hole in the bottom of the bigger pocket....I'm really worried now :/ sorry tht the pictures are not in a good order.
Thanks all!!

Hello, yes, it's non authentic

Hi ladies - need some assistance, zero experience with the brand and impulse bought this in the middle of a busy work week without researching (never again!) Felt and looked wrong the minute I held it and some googling + searching here brought up clear signs (front and back numbers do not match on tag, wrong zipper imprint, thin/cheap hardware on long strap).

Just wondering if you experienced B ladies can give me the other signs of it being fake, as I'd like to have my information accurate before I return/contact the seller.

Tag: N0223C - 102106 (front) 128523 3555 (back)

Thanks!
