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 there! I was hoping you wonderful ladies could tell me if this bag is authentic. Got it at a consignment store; the attached tag is the consignment store's. The actual tags were in the pocket. I've always been more of a mid-level purse buyer so this one is totally out of my area of expertise.

My apologies, I realized I need a good photo of the zipper underside, but I cannot for the life of me manage to take one on such a small bag. Is there some kind of trick to it? This is the best I could do, and I know it's terrible:

Hi! Not an authenticator but have taken my fair share of Bal pictures for this thread :smile: If it's a small item you can try to carefully turn it a bit inside out to take the photo. Or you put your camera/mobile inside of the bag. Try with or without flash. Often it's necessary to take a lot of pics to get one right.
I think it's very much about finding the appropriate light to photograph in. Daylight inside or outside, with a flash when it's darker, in the shadow by a window etc. Some parts of a Bal are just really hard to catch correctly.

Maybe you can also try and photograph the insides of the outer pocket opened? Just bunch it up a little from the inside and photograph it from the outside.

You've done a great job with the leather tag, an area I usually have a hard time with.Good luck!
