Best website glitch ever!
A technical problem on the official Balenciaga site caused the coveted leather totes and satchels (like the one Kim Kardashian has in the photo above) to be priced at $200-$400 when they usually start at around $2K!
Some people who happened to be on the site at the time couldn’t believe their luck and were “screaming when they nabbed a bag,” according to reports!
Once the glitch was discovered, the website quickly went offline and this statement was posted:
“Balenciaga.com is currently unavailable while we make upgrades to improve our services.”
The orders that were placed at incorrect prices were also canceled, and some people are NOT happy about that!
but the fact that @BALENCIAGA is deciding not to honor the purchases is absolutely ridiculous considering that was an f up on their part

Fuck you @BALENCIAGA for not honoring orders placed online, glitch or not….

Well, you know what they say — when something seems too good to be true, then it probably is!
Whomp.
