Thanks, the daughter lives pretty close and said she guarantees authenticity with full refund. She said the color was camel and thought it was purchased 1.5 years ago but couldn't be sure. She had the dustbag (black with fendi written small on it.) What about the lining could you tell was fake so I could use that as my excuse for the refund. Thanks again.

Camel doesnt look like that at all, that's a honey color and I believe the honey color only came out half a year ago. You dont need an excuse to get your refund, she's selling you a fake so she should do it no matter what!! Good luck

Can someone post a pic of a real serial number tag from an authentic fendi. At least then I have something to compare it to when i'm e-shopping. Thanks.

Hi,

Is it possible to get an "official" authentication from Fendi/a store selling Fendi? I bought a Spy which is a fake in my opinion. The seller wants an "official" authentication, because she thinks it's not a fake. The problem is that I live in Finland, and we don't have Fendi stores here. Is it possible to send it.. somewhere ?

Thanks!

Manola,
Do you have a concessions store that sells Fendi? or it might be worth emailing Fendi and finding out the best way to handle this.
If you can post pictures, pop a few up here. We have some amazing ladies (greendrv etc), who can tell a fake at 20 paces, and they can give you all of the reasons why it is fake and you can take this back to your seller.
Hope that helps.

Chloe-babe:

I already posted pics (pics on page 13) and yes, it's a fake as I suspected. I linked this thread to the seller, but she still doesn't believe it's a fake. We don't have any stores in Finland selling Fendi.

Could someone point out the things that shows that the bag is a fake (leather, sequins)? (Pics on page 13 (=Manola)).

Does anbody know any Fendi e-mail address so I could contact Fendi ?

Thanks a lot!!

Manola---sorry to tell you this but your spy is a fake And unfortunately Fendi do NOT authenticate bags, they just don't do that and never will(my SA told me they're not allowed to do that). I think you should try to tell the seller that YOU know it's a fake(and I bet she does,too! She's just a total LIAR )..DON'T tell her about SOMEONE ELSE told you it's a fake. Just say "right when I saw this bag I know exactly it's a fake"...then ask for a refund or else you need to contact eBay for this! This is a violation for selling fakes,so Ebay should be able to take care of this for you! Good luck and keep us posted
