I have put it on ebay but will not call it authentic because I cannot find the serial number. One site I went to said that serial numbers were not around pre-98. There is no history or listing of purse made by Fendi by year.

It is very confusing. I do not want to sell what is not authentic, but then I do not want to give away an authentic one either.

Links to pictures

TIA

This one is not real IMO, so sorry...the raw edges on the interior leather trim on the inside is just not something Fendi does....

I have a fendi bag that I want you to authenticate.
I took pictures of the bag, but I don't know how to post them here.
You can click on the paperclip on the header of the reply box & load in photos from your hardrive, or you can host them on photopucket.com

You won't find many authentic Fendi Wallets on ebay. I doubt if these are real, given seller has so many. But I would need more pics to definitely declare it a fake...

Thanks never noticed that, went over everything with a fine tooth comb but there was something nagging at me.

If anyone has a contrary opinion, please let me know.

Thanks

Dear ladies,

I'd appreciate if you can take a look at these clutches for me. I've been surfing the forum trying to find a "how to spot a fake fendi" link without avail. Is there one?

Thanks in advance!

The first one is fake bag (incredible mirror image replicas on both sellrs fake FENDIs at auction). The 2nd one, I would need more photos, like the hologram tag & leather serial # strip sewn into pocket lining or lining of purse.

What's the opinion?
Really like the black or the white with blue handle
1st one is real, but almost priced at retail, you may do better getting at Fendi or retail store.
2nd is likely a fake, would need more pics to verify.
3rd looks promising, need photo of hologram tag & leather serial # strip to give opinion....

I agree with Baglady. It's definitely fake, which makes it illegal to sell FWIW.
