Hi again,

Could someone please authenticate the following bag for me? Ordered from theRealReal but just want to be safe as the color looks completely different than on the site. I had a hard time capturing the true color, it looks warmer in real life. The closest is the 7th image. If it is authentic, can someone tell me which color it is or from which year as well? Thank you so much!

Hello lovely authenticators! I sold a Bal bag on ebay and the buyer is returning because the bag ".....does not seem genuine."
Is it allowed for me to post my own pictures here of the bag to authenticate. The listing is no longer viewable because it was sold over 30 days ago but I have pictures. :smile:

Hello lovely authenticators! Please, can you help me authenticate this Balenciaga? I believe it is the Town model. The color is black with some sort of dark-green undertones. While the leather is soft and the purse collapses when standing empty, the leather is not really thin and the feeling is not super-buttery. The strap is cross-body, hip-length Many thanks in advance for your help!IMG_1757.JPG IMG_1760.JPG IMG_1759.jpg IMG_1758.JPG IMG_1761.jpg IMG_1763.jpg IMG_1765.JPG IMG_1770.jpg View attachment 4018423 View attachment 4018425 .

Thank you for your kindness. Both seller did not answer me regarding close-up picture of bales and rivets. I find it kinda odd. Anyhow i found another seller who seems to have one more ideal bag here are details below:

Item Name: BALENCIAGA Tasche in pinken Leder
Item Number: 202245377559
Seller ID: gomez883

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 ;)
 
Hi all-can you please take a look at this one? I've been looking for this color. Thank you!
