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!
 
Hello, mmd1313 has showed you example of what's needed. The letters & numbers need to be clear & visible. And as i mentioned, there should be "MADE IN ITALY" at the back of the tag. It may be very near to the seam, ask seller to check on that.

Not peacebabe. Copy this picture & email the seller for the back of the serial plate. In order to be the real deal, the seller has to show a legit front & back

Hi - these are the pictures seller sent of the tag. Are there any red flags? Auction is ending soon - so I really hope someone can help me
 
Hi ladies,
Please help to authenticate this bag. The inner pocket has a zipper which is different from other papier mini which has open pocket.
Is this authentic? TIA!

I could be wrong though!

Good evening lovely authenticators.
I just received this preloved Town with rose gold hardware from Tradesy and was wondering if you can please look at it. I have 3 days to initiate a return if necessary. If you need me to provide a link or more pictures, please let me know. It didn't come with any paper tags but since the strap is not adjustable, I am guessing it is a 2010. Thank you for your help.

Hello, yours is a A6 Papier.

Im not able to help you with yours as i've not seen a 2017 A6 IRL. I don't know if that's the new feature but mine is 2016 & it's with open inner pocket

Hi ladies,
Please help to authenticate this bag. The inner pocket has a zipper which is different from other papier mini which has open pocket.
Is this authentic? TIA!

Hello, looks fine. No red flag. You're probably right that it's 2010

I hope these photos are more helpful! It's hard to tell in the photo but the font on the inside tag is heat stamped not painted on. Thank you again in advance!

Thank you so much for your help peacebabe! I panicked when I first saw the smooth underside of the zipper but found a TPF thread discussing that issue. So really appreciate your looking at this bag for me :).
