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.

Does anyone know why the series number only has two lines? Usually it three lines right? This bag is authentic or not? Thx again

The newer bags don't have the FABRIQUE EN ITALIE line anymore. This is a 2018 tag. What I see looks OK but better pics of the bale, zipper head and rivet are needed.

Thank you very much. I wish people would actually look before assuming their item is authentic. Also: Do you know of a guide to read the various Bal tags?

Nothing complete. Tags very according to the year the bag was made, so a tag from 2010 for instance will look different from a tag from 2014. Tags vary from style to style as well. Here's some basic info:

You can also check the Bal reference section, lots of good info there.

Thank you for all of your help. It is much appreciated. Would you happen to know anything about the mini pompon?

I've had a couple. What were you wanting to know?

Gahhh, we've had this conversation before on one of the threads, I think it's 2010 to 2015. Anyone else know for sure? My memory isn't what it used to be ...My F/W 2012 latte had a shorter strap than my F/W 2013 cigar fonce, so there was a strap change either S/S or F/W 2013.

Haha! I have one from S/S 2013 in Tangerine. and I wanted to make sure it properly fits the time period.

That would be a J tag, very pretty colour!

Thank you. Was it considered to be a hard to find color? I can't seem to find the mini pom in it online.

I really don't know. I've seen a couple tangerine bags lately on eBay but it doesn't seem to be a colour I've seen around a lot.
Here's a link to a sold out one on Polyvore. There was a sold out one on Lyst too.
