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!

Hi Balenciaga gurus,
My name is Dinda. I am really really newbie in Balenciaga.
Recently I have been stressed with taking care of my 2 kiddos so I think I need a new bag!
A new bag it is.

Would you mind please helping me authenticate this..?

Hi.. I bought it online.. the seller said she purchased it from Balenciaga Retail Italia S.r.l. - 8, Via Europa.

I believe this is exactly same with the bag I own..

What do you think about it.. thank you!

OK here's what I can tell you. The tag, the zipper head are not consistent with the new style tags, zipper heads we see on the current styles. The perforated bags are from years ago and I may be wrong but I can't see Demna Gvasalia reaching back into the past to reboot an older style, he's all about his own design. I'd have my doubts about this bag personally.

Hi.. thank you for your kind response.
My apologize I am still lost.. (cry cry cry).
The W letter I believe means W = F/W 2006 in which the letter is repeated again on F/W 2018. Please correct me if I am mistaken..

The copy receipt telling me that the bag was purchased on Feb 2019. Maybe the bag was produced from last year?

Thank you again, dear ksuromax..!

W stands for AW 2019, and these bags have JUST started to show up in the boutiques.
It's next to impossible to see in on the shelf in february, just way too early.
Again, i strongly recommend you to avoid this bag

Hi there..
So you mean the zipper head shows that it is non authentic?
It should be only one B..?

Thanks
