If you read the first line it says prototypes AND first season. The bag shown on the bottom is a first season as evidenced by the lack of zipper stop.
The one you listed has a zipper stop so is either second or third season. Hard to tell from the pics shown but the leather looks like it could be second season.

I love this color, but I can't get over the 'green' residue around one of the rivets...combined with the listing saying there is a musty odor, I am imagining the worst. The pictures showing the inside of the bag look pristine 🤨
I took a little break & came back to look. The prices are Insane, but…since there pricing them this high & people are buying them - I went ahead and consigned a few of my least often used ones 🤷🏽♀️ I hope more of the non-tpf-ers go ahead and buy mine (so I can wait for the prices to come back to reality & buy a few more lol)
It seems like overnight the prices doubled on the Bals on TRR! I always thought they were under priced but this is a bit ridiculous!! On a side note, you can have a 'backpack' that fits in the palm of your hands-lol! (see below) Who does these listings??
Doesn’t this look like Rose Gold, not SGH?
what year do you think this is? can't tell if i like the leather or not... looks really matte.
In a moment of Rose Gold weakness, I grabbed it. Will report back once it arrives. Thanks for your help!
I was struck by these photos too. That leather looks lovely. Good luck!
Looks like verdigris. Happens sometimes with brass. It was probably kept in a moist environment. The verdigris wouldn't necessarily scare me away as it can be cleaned, but musty odor implies mold, which I don't want to deal with.BALENCIAGA Chevre Classic Hardware First | FASHIONPHILE

Beware the fake SS 04 Yellow Purse on TRR… shouldn’t have a metal tag!
Such a shame because it’s a beautiful color, I definitely don’t want to deal with mold. I had no idea what that green residue was, thank you!
