I'm getting confused now! I always mix up magenta because it came out in 05 and 08 and there was an LE which is either Pale magenta or 08 magenta, I can't remember. actually after talking it out, I am certain PM came out in 08. I still think this is PM because of the zipper tape and distressing on the leather. PM usually has a brighter pink zipper tape. I just can't be sure because of the photos. Sorry, my brain is not working today.
ETA: it can't because it doesn't have the mirror. I'm going f to quit for the day. Long week at work. Lol

It's okay I'm confused today too! That time period there were a lot of pinks and LE and the changes with some 08's being chèvre and some not and the mirrors. Without the cards it may be near impossible to figure out the color on this one. If it is PM it's faded or one of the dry pale ones because PM was a bit brighter on some bags!
I'm on my phone now. I'll look again later when I am in my desktop and have a clearer head.
Can anyone help me to find out which year, season, name of the leather and color of this bag I just bought from neiman marcus? I tried to do some research online also in the reference section here on purseforum and have no luck. any help would be greatly appreciated!

It's from 2013. Here is a link. It is the distressed calf leather city in dark brown. http://forum.purseblog.com/balenciag...istressed+calfCan anyone help me to find out which year, season, name of the leather and color of this bag I just bought from neiman marcus?

Ok, this one is driving me nuts. I think it is faded from its original color or the pictures are really bad. I can't be sure. The thing that is throwing me off is the brightness of the zipper tape. The bag has to be from 2008 or 2010. That means its 08 PM, 08 BG, 09 Framboise or 2010 Pivione. The fact that the mirror doesn't have a pocket eliminates 08 PM and 08 BG, but there have been anomalies before. The zipper tape on 08 BG matches this one, on the brighter side. Framboise has a lighter pink zipper tape and so does 2010 Pivione. I don't think it is 10 pivione because of the leather. Here is a picture of a BG bag where the zipper tape looks similar http://forum.purseblog.com/showpost.php?p=22632215&postcount=99
Hi guys! I received this bag from Net-A-Porter the other day but through some kind of massive fail they haven't included the paper tag with the serial number on. Could someone please explain what my tag means? It's my first ever Balenciaga so I'm majorly clueless and I'd love to know as I'm a geek with this stuff and still waiting on NAP to get back to me to see if they can locate the card for me! Annoying. Thank you! 
I know it's driving me crazy too, haha! I think you nailed it though! It just has to be a slightly faded 08 BG without a pocket on the mirror, for all the reasons you have mentioned and the pictures you linked. The leather even has the same "look".
It's a Spring/Summer 2015 Giant Black Mini City. The first set of numbers is your style number, the "1000" is your color which is black, the "F" represents the year and season, I'm not sure what the last set of numbers is. The last set is probably either leather batch or hardware type.
Amazing thank you so much!
When you say style number, is that the same as the bags serial number? Or will I never know its serial number if I don't have the paper tag? Net-a-Porter will be getting an annoyed phonecall tomorrow! Just as well I love the bag more than my other ones already!
