What should I ask the seller to show me as far as more pictures go? Also, I noticed the seller has sold other high end purses slightly used. But two or three of the same slightly used purses. Let me guess... fakes?
I am pretty sure this bag is not real. Even with the "fuzzy" pic.

Yes it does.

No, that would be the other way around the older bags don't have holograms, but all newer bags, 2003 and on all have holograms...

I just got a call from Neiman Marcus. The buyer said the new bags do not have the hologram--only leather strip with serial number.

It looks authentic IMO - are we thinking of another baguette?

I have never heard of that. Every new bag I have seen so far has had a hologram, including the New Peek A Boo bags.

If this is so, we possibly won't be able to give opinions on them, since the fakes have done a pretty good job of replicating the leather strips.
I have PMd someone who works for FENDI to see if they have heard of this -- ??

I have seen the "woven"look bags like the one you gave for authentification With Hologram Tags before. Also, both the lining & zipper pull look unlike anything I have seen FENDI produce. But I have seen Fake Fendis with these features. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...#ht_720wt_1167 Finally, the seller has a 97% positive FBack rate, which is not one I personally would find acceptable.

I did go ahead and Reported a dispute and I will be getting my money back, but what really sucks is I still have to pay for shipping back to her. I say the seller should be charged to mail back item. It it was REAL, but had wanted to return and talked to the seller fine, but selling a fake bag and then charging a buyer to mail back an a fake item is too funny. It should be taken out of the seller account.

The seller stated I HAD BUYERS REMORSE. The only remorse I had was buying a FAKE BAG. She didn't even know what the FENDI Holgram tag was or the serial number.

BUT what I do owe you all who are wise and knowledgeable about Fendi bags. Thank you for your knowledge (and obsession), if it weren't for you or my friend that gave me the same advice about the bag, I would of given my bf's cousin a fake bag. GASP!

I will definitely be asking a lot of question before I ever buy a bag on eBay. I do feel sorry for the seller, but do to this incident. I will not be so trusting, I will be asking so many questions.

If you give Ebay a call about the situation, they may reimburse you for the shipping. It's worth a try. Good luck!
