Hello!
I'm wondering if this bag is authentic?

There doesn't seem to be a hologram and I do not have a card. This bag was my mom's and was handed down to me.

The details can be seen in the images, the only one I didn't get a snapshot of was the F logo on the heads of the rivets.

The interior is coarse but soft linen, the exterior black leather (very soft and very smooth)...The leather strip with the serial/model (?) number is stitched into the interior pocket upside down, so that when you pull back the outside of the pocket to look at it, you can read it (so when reading it it is not upside down- you don't have to try to read it upside down...does that make sense? I hope so! :-) The number on the strip is: 2454/8br255/038 (with slashes)

Thanks in advance for your input!

Best wishes,
Bek

Hi all - am in a pickle - am on my sickbed having come down with Norovirus... :throwup: not pleasant! and I'm due to fly Sunday to 2 weddings in New Zealand and Sydney. To cheer myself up I ordered a Fendi Spy online - I came across it in the sale of one of the independent boutiques in the UK...

http://www.flannelsfashion.com/p448046/FENDI-LEATHER-PLAIT-HANDLE-SPY-BAG.html

I have just this minute received it and would be very grateful for verification of it's authenticity.

There are a few little things bothering me.
1) the bag was wrapped in a sheet of bubble wrap and in one of those grey plastic post bags. no box or anything to protect it.
2) there is no dustbag. is this usual?
3) i eventually found the serial no tab, but where its been folded and sewn in, the fold is wonky. surely fendi would show a litle more care with an authenticity label on a £1055 bag?
4) are all the numbers on the bag supposed to match the card? i can't make head nor tail of it!

Have attached some photos. apologies for mess - I literally am on my sickbed with a bowl next to me!!

I may be being paranoid! But would really appreciate you gals help as if I am to return the bag and get a refund, I need to advise them within 48hours.

Thanks so much!
Sam

**am having problems inserting pictures** will go search the help!

Looks good, IMO :tup: Could be the seller didn't have the dustbag to give. You might want to contact them and ask them for it?? :confused1:
