If you can find pics of the newer bags, at least 2011, or 2012 and up, you'll see the the change.
all i have seen so far, have been with GHW, thus 2 studs.... probably, they just were not as popular as before, and i just missed those few with reg hw and 2 studs which were made lately... cool, every day something new! спасибо! :flowers:

Think they stopped making the WE in 2014, 2015? So it would only be a few years with the change.
I did do a search on this forum but was only able to find older WE's (prior to 2010.)
Looked on-line and found the "newer" ones on BragmyBag. They're not popular, (am so happy about the new version, City X-large with strap) so not easy to find pics of.

and another pic from Neiman http://www.neimanmarcus.com/Balenciaga-Classic-Weekender-Bag-Bleu-Mineral/prod151830252/p.prod
one more that sold on Yoogis https://www.yoogiscloset.com/balenciaga-anthracite-lambskin-leather-weekender-bag-45143.html
(pics of the newer ones are nearly impossible to find.. grrr)

I will say, you had me question my sanity for a few minutes. Was thinking, oh hell no, I did not get ripped off!! lol.. but no, they did change them, if only for a 4-5 seasons before they renamed it City X-large.
пожалуйста :flowers:

@ksuromax - I've been trying to figure out when the 2 stud handle change happened, and of course Bal's site no longer has Weekender pics.
But I did find a post in the F/W 2012 thread mentioning the change: https://forum.purseblog.com/threads/f-w-2012-bal-intel.727851/page-59#post-22236819

Prior to that I found a pic of a S/S 2012 with the 3 studs on a Gris Poivre WE.
So I'm going to guess it started in F/W 2012, the season Cassis came out.


I'm mentioning this because I know you also authenticate at times.
Going to tag @muchstuff and @connie618 to confirm.

HI I am pretty new to this blog. I am a mother of two (boy-girl) and i have been searching for both a regular diaper bag for everyday, and a traveling diaper bag and i found tehse t=2 both from scuddles on amazon and i loved them see the links attached below

https://www.amazon.com/Bassinet-Portable-Quality-Water-resistant-Carrycot/dp/B01N4X5QDS

This one is actually very unique and even comes with a built in bed that folds in the diaper bag after you are done with it, We were traveling from TN to Miami and my baby slept inside during the flight and i really feel that this is an item that moms like me would actually love.

The link below is also from that brand but more of a simpler version for everyday. This is my first post i hope you find this info helpful

So I hit the BIN button on ebay on a 2016 Bal in mint condition for a too good to be true price. Seller has no previous history on eBay, first time selling, zero feedback. Three days later the purchase is still pending, the gal's email address is either not registered on her PP account or she's entered it wrong. Six messages to her on eBay and one to her hotmail account, no response. I called ebay and since they could see that I made payment and that I had tried to contact her with no result they GAVE ME HER NAME AND PHONE NUMBER :shocked: and suggested I contact her. That's more than a little disconcerting but OK, I tried texting her today and left a voice message, as I couldn't tell whether her number was a text-dedicated number or an actual phone number. Nothing yet.
So, all of the non-returned messages could be explained if her email had been entered into her eBay and PP account incorrectly. EBay account's only two months old. More likely I think, is that someone messaged her offering her more to go direct to PP and she jumped at it, leaving me hanging, and is hoping I'll just go away. Any other scenarios you can think of? I want that bag...:annoyed:

I can't think of anything.. fingers crossed for you she replies. I think at this point, I'd get a refund though.

I haven't technically paid as yet, due to the fact that her email either isn't set up with PP or is incorrect. My payment is sitting there marked as "unclaimed" and hasn't been taken from my bank account. I think I'll call eBay again and ask if they can check her messages to see if she sold it offline. I'll do all I can before I post a scathing negative feedback :lol:...

I am sorry to hear about this big hassle of yours. The only other scenario (a bit unlikely but I go to extremes on things, lol) is that a family emergency happened -- or she fell very ill. I hope you get your bag or a refund soon. I am dying to see the bag since I know you like mostly the older stuff with the exception of the VD bags.

Cancelled the transaction. I called eBay again and they felt it was a bogus account set up to phish for banking info and advised I cancel. As the old saying goes, if it seems to good to be true it probably is. But I'll watch and see if they come back with a new listing! (And, like you, I did consider those scenarios, but it's far more likely it's a fraudulent listing, sadly).

Bummer! Sorry it happened to you. How disappointing and annoying.
