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!

Hello, welcome back !!!

Both bags looks fine. No red flag.

However, please click on my undersigned like to see what are the exact photos needed for authentication. And make sure all photos are present before posting ;)

The bag is sold. If you are the buyer, I do wish to see the back of the tag again when you received the bag. The rest looked fine. May be the tag is dry & with the flash, making it looks too "crackly"

Do quote your original post when you re-post with new tag photo.

Hi! I bought the bag. I’ll post pics when I receive it...she does not live far from me - she’s in ny and I’m in nj so hopefully it won’t be long. I HOPE it’s real.

Currently fighting with the last ebay seller. He says eBay approved the listing, which I know is a lie. I'm having the bag looked at by a third party so I don't have to ship a fake back to get a refund. I don't want it to be resold.

I have two more that I would appreciate feedback on, BEFORE buying. Thanks ladies!

the first one, patent, i will not comment on as i am not feeling confident, tag is not clear enough, too
the second, although the zipper head and rivet pics are missing, i would say it doesn't scream off and and with necessary pics we can confirm it's ok to go, but one tiny thing - it's listed as calfskin, which is a mistake, it's lambskin
if you get missing pics for the second one, please re-post again :)

I had such bad experience before. The only difference is the photos listed are an authentic one, yet i received a totally different, non authentic bag! No point talking to the seller, i open a case straight away. I open the case through Paypal instead of ebay as there's a Paypal office in my country. They don't have an option to choose for "fake", only can go for "item not as described". Though i told Paypal the situation, telling them i rather send them the bag instead of returning to the seller, Paypal said NO, i need to return to the return address in order to get a refund. But Paypal has been really nice, they refunded my the shipping back fee on their account. The only thing i lost is on the currency exchange rate!
