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!
 
@muchstuff even though I'd like to hear another opinion I agree with you! The more I research the more I can see it! Clearly I'm not an expert and was fooled by this one but my eye has gotten a bit better lol! thank you very much and I promise I will not bother any of you again because of this bag :smile:
No worries, some of the others are online later in the day due to time zone differences, I'm sure you'll get at least one more opinion.
 
The bag is indeed non authentic.

We are all here too help. You are most welcome to request for authentication anytime when in doubt ;)

hey guys I'm back! Long story short in the process of canceling the order the seller insisted that the bag was original :/ I asked for more pictures of everything required (he forgot the Bale and Rivet :/, but you can get a look at both in other pics... but not the same thing right? BTW the bale has notches) could you please take another look at it?
PS: muchstuff, I hope you understand my sutuation because I don't want to be disrespectful to you and I am indeed very thankfull for the time you took answering and helping me :smile:

No offense taken but every aspect of this bag screams fake. Front and back of tag, the back of the zipper head, the rivets (I can see a rivet, yes there are notches, no they aren't correct). Not a good pic of the bale so I can't comment there. @ksuromax , @peacebabe , @Conni618 can you comment so our original poster has more than one opinion?
should one more opinion be required, here's mine - FAKE!
hope, you can get your money back :)

Hi!
Would love any help authenticating this bag I purchased second hand. Unfortunately it is missing the front plate inside. Thank you!

Do take a look a the link below. We need clear, sharp, close up pics of the front and back of the interior tag (not bent), the bale, the rivet, the back of the zipper head, and good shots of the entire bag.

Hi! I am back with several photos below from the seller.
Please verify the bag, I Hope this bag is authentic *fingercrossed*

The zipper is not Lampo though, is it true thay they changed it recently?

Black Silver G21 City

Good evening friends. This is the first time I've had my hands on a G21 bag so I'm not familiar with authentication markers but it's supposed to be black and the set of 4 numbers on the top line should be the color code, right? So it should be 1000? This says 2011... and the zipper pulls and rivets seem off to me, unless they're just way different on G21's?

Anyhoo, I would greatly appreciate a yay or nay on this guy.

Thanks in advance![emoji173] 1530580160799.jpg1530580382973.jpg1530580470253.jpg1530580491348.jpg1530580555090.jpg1530580636731.jpg1530580694658.jpg1530580745370.jpg1530581208611.jpg1530581255954.jpg1530581405757.jpg

Please help authenticate this Balenciaga. This should be a 2010 ticket bag.
