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!

Hi ksuromax
Thank you for looking at my post. I asked the seller more "assertively" for more of the required pictures. This time she accommodated me saying she was just too busy this week. Here is what I have from her.
Please let me know what you think. The bag is in very bad shape, but I want to try my hand at bag restoration and I will not try on my beloved bags in good condition.

Not sure why the pictures appeared so small here they are large on my computer. I removed them and will repost them after I see what I can do about their size. I

When you do restore, I'd love to see your results and what you use.

You have the back and front of tag (the front tag pic is angled so the light hits it and you can't see the tag in it's entirety) and the back of the zipper head. No rivet, and only a very small pic of the bale. All of the pics needed are in the link, and as we've said many times, the pics must be clear, close up and forward facing.
From what I can see it looks OK but we really do prefer to have the pics needed to do a good job of authenticating.

Authentic from what I can see, what happened to this poor bag? :shocked: It's a Sunday tote based on the style number. Although I can't see the entire back of the tag it looks as if the "MADE IN ITALY" is upper case which would make it 2011. I hope she's not charging you very much!

The PurseForum requests that only members with an extensive knowledge of the brand and authenticating who have over 500 posts participate as authenticators in this AT thread. The moderators reserve the right to remove authentications that do not meet these requirements.

Please post authenticity questions related to Balenciaga in this thread.

- Please do a search within the thread (use Search this thread located on the top right corner) to check if the item has been reviewed by one of the senior authenticators before posting. Try to put your search term in quotes. For example, instead of searching for 1234567890, search for "1234567890"

- Please use the below format when requesting authentication for an auction item:

Item Name:
Item Number:
Seller ID:
Link:

If the bag in question is not on an auction site, please use the following:

Item Name (if you know it):
Link (if available):
then attach any photos

- You cannot post your own auctions. However, should one of your items be questioned in this thread, you are welcome to provide additional pictures or materials supporting its authenticity. Please note that while it's fine to defend your own auction if its authenticity is questioned, please do not authenticate your own Bbag.

- Do not handle your disputes with other members in this thread but take your differences to Private Messages. Failure to do so can result in banning.

- Please utilize the "Quote" feature when responding directly to another post.

- Please post link (eg/ #4888 , copy and paste the post number) to the original query when requesting a second opinion or in follow up post.

- Please note that comments on price and condition are NOT permitted.

- Do NOT PM an authenticator or moderator to request authentications. Any and all such requests must be posted in this thread.

- Authenticators are not required to answer every request, and it is their right to ignore a request that is not in the proper format.

Thanks @muchstuff. I did ask for the required pics, but only received those two.
