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!
 
Since you have the bag in your possession can you please take good clear forward facing pics of the interior tag, back and front (no bending please), the rivet (notched screw holding on the handles), the bale (hardware at the end of the strap), and the back of the zipper head. All facing forward please, no sideways or angled pics. We're happy to help but need the required pics.
 
Hello,

I am looking into buying this bag online but I am not very sure if it is authentic. Please help authenticate this Balenciaga City.

Hi ladies;

Hope everyone is well. I'm back again with 3 bags that require your expertise. Please authenticate these for me. This will be my first City, as I have always gone for the size utility of the Work bag. Any thoughts on which of these has the best leather would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you so much.[/QUOTE]
Nothing's screaming fake and I believe the seller is fairly reliable but none of the bags have all of the pics needed for authentication. Please see the link below for pics needed. If you resubmit please post each bag separately. (I'd say all three are likely authentic but won't sign off without the proper pics).

Thank you Muchstuff.
I apologize, I thought all the pictures were there, but I do see some are missing. I have requested additional pictures for the pink and camel bags. I checked the black one and it looks like all the pictures are present. If you need some other shots of that one please let me know which ones to request from the seller. Sorry for the long post. In the future, and when I get the updated pictures, I will list each separately. Thank you so much for your patience and guidance.

No worries, if you can get the extra pics that would be great. The last one had all of the pics except the metal tag (unfortunately) but I'm assuming the seller doesn't have it.
 
Hi, I recently purchased a Balenciaga clutch and would be eternally grateful if someone could help me to authenticate the clutch for my peace of mind. I tried my best in taking the pictures of the bag, but do let me know if the pictures are inadequate in any way and i'll try again!

The seller said that she had purchased this clutch last year. Also, just wanted to highlight in case it isn't clear from the pictures - I have read somewhere that the stitching of the logo inside an authentic Balenciaga bag should be in black and not the colour of the bag, but I had noticed that the stitching of the logo inside this clutch is maroon in colour.
