Hey there Bal experts, I recently purchased a graffiti classic city from my department store and it’s come to my attention that my inside-the-bag tag seems different from what was shown on the website or every other graffiti cities I’ve seen. Mine doesn’t say “Paris” on it :/ and from what I read the serial number Y means the bag was from 2006?? The bag smells balenciaga but that minor detail bugs me a little. I’d much appreciate if you guys could explain this “outcast” looking tag I’ve attached additional pics to help with the investigation0E929ED1-7E10-4EBA-8960-31E534572DAB.jpeg7BDF7735-2B75-4712-BED7-5DBAC15AE69E.jpeg6A19F8FE-C2EA-45C3-8704-95B0CFE55AA3.jpegF607D869-9E1B-4E7B-81E5-FDC2AA8AB564.jpeg32E0D5A7-8034-4487-98F8-AD168471BF20.jpeg6928D45B-785B-4336-B163-A0E0A481987B.jpeg4AF7D366-C7C9-4552-BEB9-98FC896F094B.jpeg97740EF3-CC13-4CC6-9240-35C6A91B12B4.jpegC03AF407-5FD9-4CAB-BFB2-37B391A51189.jpegED2A3E5D-FE70-4A4C-A752-6F28AB90E86A.jpeg

Hello, has it been re-dyed?
it looks like black on my screen, while the colour code stands for Anthra
you are missing the bale, the zipper head underneath and i'd like to see a sharper shot of the back of the leather tag

Here you go :) Seller isn't sure if it's been re-dyed and it doesn't have its authenticity cards anymore.

It was a picture from the retailers website, which is different from what I received. Sorry for the confusion
ok, then
your pics are all the rest except the last one, correct?
the letters are now going in the second round, hence your Y stands for SS 2019
the tag and all other features look consistent with current bags, and in my opinion it's a perfectly legit bag from the recent (SS 19) collection. :)

Yes correct! That last pic threw me off lol. Thank you for clearing it up for me :heart:
 
Hello ladies.

Can you please authenticate this if this is legit? I am planning to buy this bag but I really want to know if this one is real.

Thanks!
