Scrolling through Marshall's website very fast and I did a double take! It's like the designer melded a Weekender and Midday together. (For the record the brand is Maxima- probably one of those Italian bag brands they often carry- and it's $89.99.)

Hi guys i´m new here :wave: and i need your help. I loooove the Balenciaga City Bag especially the Metallic Edge Version. I already have a small one in bordeaux (love!) and i finally got my hands on a more classic black one in a bigger size (see Foto). Bought it via Vestiaire Collective and let them check the authenticitie. I now have the bag, it came with dustbag and cards. I looked it up and the bag must be from S/S 2017.
My question is: Is it normal that the bag has short tassles on the front pocket? Can you tell me is it a special collection or something like that?
I trust the website, already bought many beautiful bags there... but you never see this Version of the bag in the internet.
Hope someone can help me and thx a lot :heart:

Someone’s either cut them or it’s not authentic. VC is capable of errors, we had a member lose out on purchasing a coveted collectable bag because they thought it was fake. Feel free to post the applicable photos on the “authenticate this” thread if you like.

I would be wary of Vestaire. There are a TON of fakes on there, including ones that are "verified and authenticated" by their "experts." For example: https://us.vestiairecollective.com/...eather-city-balenciaga-handbag-21990957.shtml
This is a very bad fake, yet it has that seal of approval.
I would have anything I purchased on that site checked by a third party authenticator, including the bag you pictured.

Wow! Wouldn’t expect that… For someone not very familiar - like me - that is a trap! I actually came across this bag in my searches and I found the ones looking weird. Some other things as well. But still, anyone can become a victim, trusting their authentication service. That’s why I was asking about which of these sites are to be trusted even though all of them brag about having ultra-extra-experts. :sad:

There’s not a site I can name that hasn’t had at least one fake slip past them.
