Thanks and be well!

Help!
Bought this jacket on eBay. All looked okay but got it today and the base of the zipper to zip up the front of the jacket is plastic...like thin, pliable plastic. Would an authentic bal jacket have this type of zipper??

You're better off posting here, see link. These gals know their jackets far better than we do on the AT thread!

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.

Item: Balenciaga Bordeaux Giant 12GHW Envelope Leather Clutch

can you, please, take another snap of the tag back side, but not with a flash, just normal natural light?
the rule of the black thread does not always apply to small items

Hi, thanks for your reply Ksuromax.

I took a few more pictures of the tag without flash (just in case) - hopefully its clearer now.

i'm afraid these are blur, too
try to focus your camera on the font, if you are using a phone camera, just tap on the screen where the digits are, hope it will help to get sharp snaps

Thanks for the tips - would this picture be better?

It might help to take the bag outside. You can get clearer pictures if there is a lot of natural light.

Hi Ksuromax, so sorry for having to trouble you to look at the pictures so many times. I took @whateve’s advice and tried taking the pictures under natural sunlight, hopefully it’s clearer this time! The last picture has filter to hopefully make the font look clearer (although it made not be what you’re looking for).

Hello ladies,
Bought this from a consignment shop over the weekend, can you help me to authenticate this?

Hope I have all the pics required.
Thanks in advance!

While it's always good to see the whole bag, this one is authentic in my opinion, S/S 2014 rose azalee.

Yay! Although would that mean that the seller wasn't quite honest about purchasing the clutch last year?
