[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!

This is authentic. It is glycine.

Thank you very much! The leather seems to be 'cracking' quite a bit despite the bag is practically unused. This causes a bit of concern.

Hi Bal experts.

Please could you authentucate this Bal hip bag for me? I won it from ebay - kind of last minute decision so didn't get to check with you guys first.
Name: Balenciaga Hip genuine peach iridescent leather bag
Seller: ezabuk
Item id: 162745591369
link https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https://www.ebay.co.uk/ulk/itm/162745591369

I have also added some photos. If these are not enough, please let me know as I'm not sure what is required for a Hip bag.

Thank you very much.

from what i see the bag looks good to me, but i would guess it's Automne from 2009 and not Cognac
what bugs you is not a red flag but normal feature of any Balenciaga strap from the back side. Just due to its age it has become a bit floppy and corners lifted up a bit.
Maybe i'm confused about the colour, pics are either too lit, or too shadowed, but the bag itself looks ok.

thank you so much!! this puts me at ease. you guys are amazing!

I'm sorry but we don't discuss the details re: authentication. Sometimes the fakers post here to get info so we have to be very careful!
