How to spot a fake Balenciaga handbag

 

Fake Balenciaga handbags are getting more common on the internet. This guide will provide you with an idea of some of the styles of Balenciaga handbags that are being made, so you will be able to spot a fake if you are considering buying one off the internet.

Of course you can find authentic Balenciaga handbags on Ebay and the internet for some wonderful deals, but the consumer should be aware of how many of the handbags are actually fakes. Look at all the pictures, read the seller's feedback and ask questions about how they acquired the bag. Ask if they guarantee the handbag is a real Balenciaga and do not consider a purchase if the seller does not guarantee authenticity. The reason for this is because an authentic bag may be shown in a listing, but it may not be the bag you receive. If the price seems too good to be true, then it is probably a fake.

But be aware, sellers are now pricing their fake bags much higher in an effort to make them appear to be authentic Balenciaga handbags! While a low price may be an obvious indication of a fake handbag, you can not depend on price to help you spot the real deal! Be cautious no matter the price of the bag.

Google the style you are interested with the word replica, and see if anything shows in a search. You can also go to Ioffer.com or Tradekey.com (two replica sites) and see if the bag you are interested can be found there. If you suspect a handbag is fake, you will need to ask plenty of questions for proof of authenticity such as how the handbag was acquired. If they say from the manufacturer, ask where their retail store is located and confirm its existence.

All the Balenciaga handbags pictured above are fake. Fake handbags may even come with boxes, dustbags, tags and authenticity cards. The handbags pictured above were all for sale at replica sites. They also come in other colors and other styles. Of course the more popular a handbag, the more likely it will be counterfeited as with Balenciaga's motorcycle handbag.
 

If a handbag looks authentic in the photos, make sure the photos are not "stock photos" copied from other websites or sellers. Some sellers will have pictures of an authentic handbag but will send a fake in its place. Most internet sellers that take their own photos take the photos in the same location. Look at their other photos to see if the background is the same. This can be an effective tool to confirm the handbag pictured is from the person selling it.

Balenciaga handbag listings that say "100% Leather" or "Genuine Leather" can sometimes be fake. Sellers have to point out that it is genuine leather because some of the fakes are not. When you go to a major department store looking at handbags in a high price range, do you think a sales clerk is going to say "Look, its made of genuine leather!". This type of "genuine leather" description can sometimes mean the handbag is fake.

When looking at Balenciaga handbags on the internet, always be cautious, scrutinize the pictures, research the seller, and always ask for a guarantee of authenticity. There are some great deals for Balenciaga handbags to be found on the internet. Just make sure what you buy, is what you get.
