Authenticate This Balenciaga

[Vlad]

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!

Yes Its authentic but there just seems to be some difference in the stitching on the portion of strap I can see, but it’s not a great view of it. It may be nothing but it doesn’t hurt to get a better look if she’s willing.

She kindly sent a better photo of the strap. What do you think?

I don't EVER remember the Hobo's having a Metal Tag; then again, I have seen some Balenciaga "oddities" in my day, so figured I would ask .. on flea-Bay!

It's fine, it must have just been the angle of the other pic. Be sure to post a mod shot if you buy her!

I'm not that familiar with the style but the tag looks good to me. Let's see what the others think, meanwhile I'll do some research.

@CeeJay Yes, it did have a metal tag as per tPF...although they list the style number as 108209, I think that's an error...

"Flat Hobo [108209] - xxxxx
14.5 x 13.5 with 20 adjustable strap
silver tag (as of F/W 03) 213048"

Not authentic, sorry!

Authentic in my opinion, Yoogi's is generally pretty reliable.

Thank you @muchstuff! I haven't seen this style very often posted on TPF so I had to be sure! Have a lovely day!

It’s not a style I’ve seen often either, please post mod shots if you buy her!

I'm sorry but without the pics needed I'm afraid I can't comment.
