Not to worry, I don't upset easily [emoji38].
I just bought a bag on fashionette ( german online store) and it looks like the same, Black City S , since the description of the bags on that website is confusing.
So I just wanted to know if Bal bags still have the paper that says the year and material. Or the lil leather patch?
And what year is it from
My Tag says 431621 1000 W 568008
But I'm gonna post it fully tomorrow when there is light to take pics.
Tried to find out more about the letters and the year, but it stopped with 2017 everywhere.
Thank you, and I am sorry if this is the wrong thread, but I searched the whole bal forum abd couldnt find that bag, only here on the authenticate this.
 
Hello lovely authenticators,

I’m hoping someone wouldn’t mind helping me with this balenciaga city. I’m a bit confused by what I’m seeing about C dates being 2004 but this is metallic edge not introduced until 2014? I love this bag, please tell me I’m missing something :/. This might not have what you need for authentication, so I apologize if that’s the case.

item: metallic edge glacier acier city
Item#: 407177
Seller: fashionphile
Link: https://www.fashionphile.com/balenciaga-chevre-gold-metallic-edge-city-gris-acier-407177

thank you so much for any help you might be able to provide ❤️

just here to add any additional photos that I think are needed for authentication. Thank you SO very much for any help. If I missed a photo, please let me know. Thank you!

Hi.
Would like to ask your opinion if this preowned Balenciaga is authentic, i think it's a First, though from seller's post it's a classic city, bought it from ebay. thanks in adv!

Authentic in my opinion. And yes, it’s a First.
 
Noted
Bit hard to advise seller to pic correct angle
Will try
Sorry for the trouble caused
You could try explaining what you need and maybe send an example. Just tell them to take clear close up pics facing the camera with no angles. I appreciate that you can’t control what they send but we can’t help without the proper pics.
