Authenticate This Balenciaga

[Vlad]

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!

Having a bit of a hard time figuring out exactly what I'm looking at re: the white bit, it's a little too close. As to the sizes of the metal plates, it's like comparing apples and oranges, the plates have gone through more than one change over the years. Again, I don't know what your 2024 bag is or where it was purchased so it's difficult to comment.

Yep, I know what you mean, the white part is so hard to show and my English isn't good enough to explain correctly. It's where the leatherpart of the bottom begins. I took one more picture of it. Thank you for your help!

Ahhh OK it looks like that's just wear, it's an oldie after all . If it's really bothering you you could get some leather paint and touch it up, although matching the colour ink may be tough. You may have to mix a couple of colours together.

Haha, no I'm fine with it! Just thought it might not be authentic because of that. But it's all good

Nothing is screaming fake but K tags are tricky. Can you post a picture of the entire tag back nice and flat and close? And a picture of the back of the zipper head?

thank you! sorry i dont know what 'k tags' mean (english isnt my 1st language, i try to google it but can't find definition ). I write to seller on ebay for photos you need. But for now, from photos from auction - you think it safe, right?

Sorry, a K tag is the alphabet letter used for the F/W 2012 bags. As I said, I don't see cause for alarm but l'd feel better seeing the pics asked for, as that particular season had some known counterfeit bags.

Sorry the details in these pics aren't close enough for me to see clearly. Perhaps someone else can comment?

Thank you for replying.

Hi Everyone - A friend of a friend is selling me her Metallic Edge City for a somewhat reasonable price. I'm hesitant on the authenticity though. She said she got it from Hong Kong. I saw that the dust bag has larger font size compare to the one I got from Barneys. But then again, I'm no expert. Can anyone help please?
Item Name: Metallic Edge City

You don't have all of the pics needed but I wouldn't buy it.

Hello, looks good. No red flag.

Congrats! It's a rare gem

Edit*: Muchstuffs has confirmed it too

Hey dear people, would you be so kind and authenticate my bag?

It's a Balenciaga City in Ink (2006). I bought it preloved and posted it some days ago in the Identify this thread.

I'm not used to Bal bags pre 2010, so maybe you could have a close look at the bag. The leather seams to be thinner than the leather of my 2014 black Bal. Anyway, Thanks a lot
