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!
 
Not an expert in this season by any means. However, concerned that the leather looks off, also hardware should be brass, and looks very much like pewter or silver? Open rings for strap attachments. So couldn’t confidently authenticate.

No obvious red flag. Post all required photos again to confirm if you are purchasing

This is a link to an older City on PoshMark. I requested more pictures, but have not heard back from the seller.

I would appreciate any advice on authenticity (with the limited ad photos). Thank you for the help, I love seeing all the beautiful purses on here :smile:
 
It's SOLD !!! :shocked::shocked::shocked:

I have a 02 2nd season Choco and lining is black, leather is chèvre

Looks silky!



Can't be 02 because there are no zipper stops and Corey says that's an indicator of 01. So maybe it is fake.
 
Hi, I saw this beautiful balenciaga bag I want to buy! but I'm not sure if it's authentic or not.. Will someone please help me authenticate it for me? Thank you so much!
The strap on the pictures is not the original one, but the seller has the original tho.

There are missing photos. Clock on my undersigned link to see exact photos needed for authentication. This supposed to be covered hardware. The seller must have cleverly removed all the leather covering the hardware due to wear & tear
