Authenticate This Fendi

[drsamba]

We need to see a clear & close-up pic of the interior silver plate.

This is the response I got from the seller:
I have an old camera that won't get very close. The serial # stamped on the plate reads: 49-80-30 with the number 1925 stamped underneath it. Guaranteed authentic or money back.

Not sure what to do with that.

I am not 100% certain, but I'm about 90% certain it's fake.

I'd say those odds against it are good enough for me to steer clear! Thanks for your expertise Litigatrix!

Thank you Litigatrix, I'll ask them to send some more photos. When did Fendi start putting holograms and leather id strips in their bags. I'm assuming since this is an older bag it doesn't have those items.

Thanks again for your help.

abt 2003-04

DS - I think it is probably real, but it would be nice to get a better pic of silver plate as Lit pointed out. this is a vintage piece but the selleria leather wears well and I like these back packs.

Hi ladies,

Can anyone tell me when Fendi started putting the hologram in the interior? Which models do they do it for? I got my first Fendi from a Fendi store in Rome (2003), and it does not have a hologram in the interior. I got my second Fendi in the states at Neiman's (2005) and it does not have a hologram either. I have not bought a Fendi since then (Grad School sucked my budget dry!). Both do have all the correct markings and the leather strips with the serials.

Thanks for the info ladies xoxo

Thanks Baglady.1 for that. What do you think is a fair price for a 10-15 year old bag when you can't quite tell how used it is. There is a reserve on it so hard to know how much to bid and how much to cap it. Thanks

I'm pretty confident that Overstock sells authentic designers, and I know that the description of the bag says "glossy leather". So does that mean that the whole bag is leather and not coated canvas?

Your neimans' bag should have a hologram -- check again. If you want it authenticated, you'll need to post pictures here.

Your thoughts, experts?
