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!

My pleasure

Authentic, in my opinion.

Fiuuhh... Thanks @cbarrus. This one actually worries me because only with few use the handle where it usually rub with the hardware already starting to wear off (color rubbing off). I think older bag usually turns greenish on this site. Maybe because lower quality of leather or colouring technique on recent models?

I'm not asking if this particular bag is authentic because there are not enough detailed pics, but my question is if you know if Balenciaga actually made a red in 2015, like in the pics, called Red Ottone? There are a few shops in Asia and Australia that are selling red bags like these.

This is a link to the Australian website that sells the "Red Ottone" (well, "Red Brass" : ) among other Bals. I didn't want to post in the thread I started on the main forum since I don't know if they are authentic most probably not.

Another shop in Germany called Kademo sells similar bags on their own website and on eBay. When I asked about their Red City, they said it was Coquelicot 2015 and actually gave me some numbers from the metal tag of one of their bags (BALENCIAGA PARIS N ° 01615 F115748 ). None from the back of the leather tag, though and no pics of these. Still, these bags look pretty similar to what I've seen in other similar "intenet stores":

As I said in your other thread, I highly doubt that these are authentic bags for the reasons that I stated. If you can get more pictures from any of these sites, we could maybe make a definitive decision. No pictures equals no sale in my book, authentic or not.

Hey, i was hoping i can have someone set my mind at piece. Does this look real?

I know, thank you cbarrus, I just wanted to let authenticators see these links in case you haven't already. These particular types of Bals and colours seem to have popped up in a lot of places since about half a year (?) back. I don't remember seeing them before.

I understand. However, at this point I only have a hunch, and buyers have to use some common sense when shopping on these sites. If no detailed pictures are available, then it is highly likely that the bags are not authentic.

Or, highly possible that ones listed are not the ones shipped, thus, in order to avoid "not as described" cases they do not provide any additional details

First that cries odd on ******* site - right under the description it says "difference in colour due to monitors settings", "variation in measurements 1-2 cm due to workmanship"... excuse me???? What variations are we talking about?? Never seen anything like this on Matches, NAP or NM.... just mho
