maxima,
styledrops.com is an authorized Fendi retailer. I've just been so swamped with work (fiscal year end is finally within my sights: June 30th!) that I haven't updated my lens in months!!

I just purchased my very first Fendi...from BlueFly. I knew about the troubles they were having with fake Balenciagas, but I had also heard other stories of people receiving 100% authentic merchandise. Even so, I have been having second thoughts about giving Bluefly my business since the second I pushed the order button, but I figured before returning this back I should check the authenticity. I would appreciate it sooo much if someone could help me authenticate this spy hobo since I know very very little about Fendi other then what I've learned from perusing the lovely photos/collections on this site! Thank you in advance

jdy324,
Congrats! It's an authentic one! As I suspected, not all BlueFly merchandise is fake, and the recent Balenciaga/Chloe scandal is a bad, but isolated incident.

Greendrv, Thank you sooo much for taking a look at that for me! I felt the leather on the purse and it was soooo soft I didn't think it could be fake! It's good to hear that BlueFly isn't completely bad, though I must admit the way they're handling the current situation makes me wonder if I should be giving them my business. Thanks again!

hi all,
I purchased this fendi at off 5th a couple of months ago. I know I should not be worried about the authenticity, but the pattern doe snot lined up correctly. I dont know if it is some sort of defects (thats why they sell it at off 5th), or it is fake.....
Anyways, here are some pics that I just took. I hope you girls can tell me if it is a fake or not.
thanks a bunch

I just bought this baguette from BlueFly and I was concerned with the authenticity since I read those reports about bluefly with some fake bags. Is this a authentic Fendi?

Well, I can't say one way or the other without some better photos. However, it would seem that the recent reports apply to Balenciaga and Chloe. Tpf and tfs members have purchased fendi bags from BlueFly that were definitely authentic, even after the scandal.

so, the fact that the pattern does not lined up does not make it not authentic, huh?

I just bought a Fendi spy bag off of eBay and I'm not too sure about its authenticity..could someone help?? I also just noticed that the handles aren't braided and i wasnt sure if that had any thing to do with its authenticity.
