Can anyone give me an opinion on this Fendi?

I bought it off ebay a while ago, probably around 2003. I had seen the same style in the Fendi boutique and loved it. I always believed it to be real due to the high quality leather and workmanship and because it was a more obscure style that, to my knowledge, hadn't been replicated. Recently one of the metal "FF" screw studs fell off and I want to bring it to Fendi to get fixed. Just want some expert opinions first so I don't embarrass myself by bringing in a fake. Thanks so much!

I think it looks okay, but please wait for an opinion from baglady.1 :sos:

Can you guys please tell me if this site sells genuine Fendi? I'm specifically looking at this model right now, but considering other ones as well.

Hi there!

I checked out the website - I think a friend of mine tried buying from the same site as well thinking it is genuine. Luckily she didn't end up making the purchase.

The prices indicated on the site definitely show that that the bags are replicas :(

It this helps...if you are looking for a pre-used Fendi bag in good condition, you should definitely try out some good pre-used bag sellers online like malleries, yoogiscloset etc. They usually require sellers to post high quality photos and also provide a detailed description of the bag for sale. Also, new Fendi bags can run anywhere from $750 and above.

Hope that helps! :)

We need to see the hologram tag to authenticate, but so far it looks OK. :smile1:

Hi all,

New to this so will try to follow protocol! Trying to authenticate the following Fendi Peekaboo on Ebay. Smelling a little fishy...mostly because of the hard-to-read serial number on the authentication card. She sent me a separate picture of the hologram, which looks good, but has yet to respond to request for the serial number on the leather tag on the inside of the bag.

Item Name: Fendi Large Peekaboo (it's not...it's a medium)
Item Number: ?
Seller ID: jennakiehl2013
Link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Large-Fendi...272?pt=US_CSA_WH_Handbags&hash=item3cd1b806d0

Thanks!!
