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! 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!

Thank you so much for the help! :heart: I think I got ones that will be clear enough once I was able to do it while the sun was still up and get near an open window:

Hi ksuromax .... those were the only fotos by the seller, listing is from eBay ... unfortunately, I don't know how to attach the link since I'm only using my smart phone .... no PC around here. And thanks by the way for looking at the pics. :flowers:
Ask for more pics, in particular tag back side
meanwhile, did you see the stains (possibly, water marks?) at the back of the bag??
Overall feeling is ok, i just want to be absolutely sure,
as i am not that pro, i prefer to comment with "better safe, than sorry" approach :)

Not just that, I'm also concerned about the bag strap ... here's the foto (see that tiny bit of leather?)
