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!
 
What I see looks fine but a pic of the rivet and back of the zipper head would help. Looks very much like someone had the strap shortened, that stitching isn't the original.

My gosh thanks so much for the quick reply. Here are some more photos. It does look like the stitching isn’t original. I really appreciate it!

They're a but blurry :smile: but I'd say you're good to go in my opinion. F/W 2011 papyrus, I have the same combo in a Day bag, it's lovely.

Hello ladies,

I just purchased a Balenciaga Classic City via Bluefly and am fearing I’ll end up being a horror story. Once I receive, I’ll post pics. In the meantime, does anyone mind looking at this link and telling me your initial thoughts? After purchasing, I noticed the dimensions were a bit off from the Balenciaga site.

https://www.bluefly.com/balenciaga-balenciaga-classic-city-leather-satchel/p/468512201
dimensions are not what we need to see, they can vary basis different people taking the measures (what points they measure, if they squeeze/stretch/flatten the bag, etc)
please, take all necessary pics (see #1 post) and re-post once you receive the bag :)
