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!

My pleasure!

thanks very much!

May I ask 2 more questions? What does the S/S stand for? And how would I go about determining the current value of this bag?

S/S is spring/summer. A/W or F/W are autumn/fall winter. Value is very subjective, it's really what someone is willing to pay. Depends on condition, colour, season, type of leather, rarity. S/S 2012 anthra isn't a rare season or colour. The leather would be agneau (lamb). Check out eBay and some of the resale sites for prices, that may give you some clues.

Did you look at the link in red? None of the pics needed are in the eBay link. We need good close up, forward facing pics of the front and back of the interior tag, the bale, the rivet, the back of the zipper head. The details needed should pretty much fill the screen, not just be part of the pic.

Oh, I'm so sorry.. Hope this one works.

I looked at all of those photos but the details needed aren't there. Please look at the link below in red for examples.

I see.. Is it ok if I'll take the pictures myself? But I can do that later because I am out right now. Thanks so much for your time.

Of course, that's actually preferred because then you can get exactly what we need. Just look at the pics provided in the link.

Work was made till very recent time, and additional cloth pockets (for mobile, most likely) appeared in 2012 (Much, please, correct me if i'm wrong), hence more recent Works well can have those and be perfectly legit. But without pictures we do not confirm anything, this is just general info.
Should you need any assistance, please, post the needed pics, we'll try to help you

thanks for responding!

i see only 5 pics, and none of them any good for authentication.
But!
Hardware rose gold was last time made in 2012, this is your cut-off point
if you have any other pictures that are useful, please, post them, we'll have a look
otherwise, without confirming authenticity, i can tell that a Work with RGHw and cloth pockets can be well legit and come most likely from AW 2012 season, so it's worth digging deeper

Hi!

I was wondering if someone would be able to take a look at this Balenciaga pouch I got from the real real. Also, is it possible to tell which year it’s from?

Thank you so much in advance for your help with this!

while it does look authentic to me, i can't figure out whether it faded outside, or it's enhanced by the flash inside?
my guess is between 2008 and 2012
