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 think it's good that you avoid such store

Thank you for your input! I should have believed my guts and knew it was not authentic since this color was A/W 2015 collection. That being said I purchased a wallet from them and need to be authenticate too! FYI this is a cosignment store called Midtown Authentic.

I’m sorry If I’m not supposed to say this here but seriously, I was told he purchased this from someone who distributed Balenciaga from the east coast. He already purchased 15 bags from the same distributor and sold some to fashionphile. He still says it authentic! But he mentioned he will pay for authentication, the only one I used so far was authenticate4u, would you recommend a better authentication site?
 
Well, if you meant to lie about something, will you slap your own face and say that you are lying? We don't know what kind of distributor & don't know how reliable they are.

I must say that though our authentication service here is free, it doesn't mean that our ability is lower than those paid service. Why? Because we are big big fans of Balenciaga & have passion for these bags, so much passion that even though we don't get paid, we still happily doing this as we ENJOY doing it.

If our opinion is not good enough and you must have a endorsement for fake, u can go to authenticate4u. I hope they are still good

Be interesting to know if his distributor is from the US or Canada. There's a Canadian distributor from the east that we know handles fakes (not just Balenciaga) and is everywhere...

Please see the link in red below for pics needed. The black is a fake and I'm not holding out a lot of hope for the yellow either.
 
Hello, please post a close up, sharp & clear photo of the front & back of the tag again. Straight & forward facing , no bending

Click on my undersigned link to see example


I did my best to take a photo for both front and backside leather tag.
Hope this suffice to check..

As peacebabe said in her reply to you the tag has to be forward facing and not bent. The front pic is fine but as you can see the back of the tag is bent and the light is reflecting off it as well. Since font is very important in determining authenticity the pics need to be as requested. I know it's hard to get a straight pic of the tag back but it's what's needed on our end.
