Thanks and be well!
 
I can't tell from the pics but I will ask the seller and post what I find out. She just noted the color as grey/brown, but that didn't seem to be a unique color to an obvious season, but I'm very new to Balenciaga :smile:
Your somewhere between 2007 and 2010 and there are a few browns it could be. Charbon maybe? I'll do a bit of research, the colour of the whipstitching will help. I should know this but I've forgotten exactly which brown had the lighter whipstitching. And yes, the pocket or lack of will help!

Got a pic and there is no pocket so I'm assuming it's a newer season and lambskin? Any additional info is really appreciated as I'm trying to decide what it's worth [emoji851]Thanks for all your help, you are the best!

I'm guessing it's an 09 charbon and if I had to pin it I'd say F/W pre-season. Yes, this would be agneau (lambskin). And, not trying to be a smart *ss, but I'd say its worth what someone's willing to pay for it...there are people who love the G21 hardware and others who feel it was just too heavy. I personally love the look.

nope, sorry, too many fakes around, and no any valid auth ID markers to check/look at.
Can't help, unfortunately
 
I need help!
I bought a Balenciaga mini city bag from this Canadian online store in Montreal. I recently tried to sell the bag, but Fashionphile said this bag is not authentic. I reached out to that store, but they insist that their bags are all authentic. I found very little review(almost none) about this company online. I'm very frustrated. Could anyone help me? I will post the actual pictures below.
