To Balenciaga Affiacionados...

[TiffanyBlue]

A seller from ebay told me Century 21 used to sell lower priced versions of the Balenciaga motorcycle bag. Is this true? And how much did they usually price?

This is true- aprox 70-80 if I recall correctly. They were a smaller size. Fewer details. Hope this helps.

Were those at Century 21 real ones?? I have seen some fake ones at ebay....

 

[foxinthesnow]

Century 21 one were "real". I think Balenciaga still has/had a liscence out there and it was produced under it? Made in italy. Italian label and statement of authenticity etc. I am guessing that this was the liscencee? (i cant spell) I think actually that this was a very old bag which they were selling. The quality was v v good with the exception of a small issue on the larger/removable/ shoulder strap which seemed to have some issues with the leather not looking quite perfect.

I was just gonna get one myself from ebay, but am so worried about it being fake. I saw a Dior Hardcore bag and was just about to buy it, when I decided to compare it to a picture on e-luxury. It was a fake after close examination.

I really wanna get a Balenciaga bag. Question is, is the Balenciaga motorcyle bag just so over at this point?

WOW

i have a balenciaga motorcycle bag and i absolutely love it and adore it!! IMHO it is endlessly chic

i don't really like the newer simplified version but definitely good for a cheaper alternative

They're gorgeous aren't they? Wouldn't it be cool to have the seat of three Balenciaga biker bags? the big tote, the classic bag pictured here and the little clutch too. I saw them in Harvey Nichols a few weeks ago, the colours are brilliant.
