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 I just received this from Vestiaire collective - a classic city mini in lamb skin, I believe from the ss19 collection as a moderator confirmed in another thread-

it looks a little different to what I recently seen in a balenciaga boutique which has caused me to question its authenticity (it may be because it’s less shiny) but not sure so any help would be greatly appreciated
Authentic in my opinion.

Seller said there isn't a mirror. He sent this picture and said it was a cloudy day. I'm trying to decide if I'll regret not having a mirror. I also kind of want to get something in chevre.

07 aquamarine? @ksuromax what do you think?

S/S 07 was a mix, looks more like chèvre to me, what say you @ksuromax ?

@whateve I did a bit of searching and the posts I've found all point to chevre...
Just wanted to give an update. I've received the bag and the color is gorgeous! At first I thought it seemed the same as my agneau bags but now I think there is a difference, unless I'm imagining it. This aquamarine is smoother and the leather feels thinner than my other Bals (2009, 2010, 2011). My other Bals have more wrinkles. Does that sound like the aquamarine is chevre?

I've seen wrinkly chevre, smooth agneau, so it's hard to say. But if it's aquamarine it'll be chevre IMO.

Hi
Please help me to authenticate this bag. I never seen this matte black hardware anywhere and the serial number shows year code “V”, Anyone know which year it was made? Thank you in advance!

This would be the current season. Yes matte black does exist. Authentic in my opinion, where was it purchased please? There's no link or mention of that.
