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!

I’ve requested pics of the bale and rivet but here’s what I have so far. Is it worth waiting for the rivet pic as the tag just looks wrong to me.
Thanks!
Used to authenticate Bals and pretty sure it’s fake but just wanted validation. Things do not add up with this bag.

Hi, i'll be honest with you, i cannot say firmly as what i see from these pics, does not look bad, font is consistent, format of the tag is fine for 2015 SS, but it does not look like lambskin, and hw looks more like pewter, which is hardly possible.
Paper tag doesn't mean anything, it can be a separate, re-sellers store one
Model number does not correspond to First, but if it was a Limited Edition, Specific market short stock model, it could be the case (due to different leather, mink, for example). Until you get more pix i say - NO GO

Hello ladies, please help me authenticate this beauty. I have been wanting to add a light pink city bag to my collection for so long. I appreciate your help.

Item Name: Balenciaga city bag

Hello all! These are requested authentication photos for a mystery City bag I posted in the Identification thread. I'm thinking it's from 2003, as the interior zipper is plastic, not metal. Leather tag has that softer look that you don't see after 2004. O-rings are soldered. Rivets are not notched, hardware is pewter. But lining is suede and I can't tell what the leather is. Thanks again for solving this mystery with me!
