CLOSED Authenticate This FENDI

[Rienapriharthini]

Hi, you please authenticate my fendi peekaboo bag. Thank you.

 

[Tittlemouse]

Hello everyone.

I’d really appreciate some help authenticating this (vintage?) Fendi bag. I’ve never seen the model before but have fallen in love with it.

I’d really appreciate any advice on its authenticity and hopefully this will turn into an unboxing thread too. Fingers crossed and thanks so much.

Please post authenticity questions related to Fendi in this thread.

NOTE: The PurseForum requests that only members with an extensive knowledge of the brand and authenticating who have over 500 posts participate as authenticators in this AT thread. The moderators reserve the right to remove authentications that do not meet these requirements.

Please use the below format when requesting authentication for an auction item:

Item Name:
Item Number:
Seller ID:
Link:

If the bag in question is not on an auction site, please use the following:

Item Name (if you know it):
Link (if available, if not, provide source):
Attach photos


Pics needed to authenticate Fendi:

1. Clear pic of entire bag / accessory
2. Clear close up pic of hologram tag (front and back)
3. Clear close up pic of leather serial tag
4. For older vintage items - need a clear pic of serial stamp
5. If bag / accessory is constructed of Fendi Logo Jacquard Fabric - need a large area close up pic of the logo print
6. Clear pic showing a nice large swatch of inside lining (lining does vary by style)
7. Any hardware logos, rivets, underside of zipper head
8. If available pic of authenticity card
9. for Selleria bags, need to see a clear close up pic of the silver Selleria plate

**Close up shots can be tough, best way to capture: camera needs to be set on super macro (little flower icon), tons of light, no flash and a very steady hand, press down very lightly on the shutter to focus and take the pic. You might have to take more than one, sometimes at different angles to get the perfect pic**

Additional notes:
If the bag is from a listing, always Include the listing link using the proper format. If the seller does not have the needed pics in the listing, please request PRIOR to posting your inquiry to avoid delays in getting an answer.



PLEASE NOTE:

• Do a search in this thread (type seller's name in "Search this thread" located on the top right corner) and check if the item has been reviewed by one of the authenticators BEFORE posting a request.

• Should one of your items be questioned in this thread, you are welcome to provide additional pictures or materials supporting its authenticity. Please note that while it's fine to defend your own auction if its authenticity is questioned (someone says, "I think it's fake b/c..., etc"), please do not authenticate your own bag.

• Do not handle your disputes with other members in this thread but take your differences to Private Messages. Failure to do so can result in banning.

• Utilize the "Quote" feature when responding directly to another post.

• Post the link to the original query when requesting a second opinion or in a follow-up post.

• Please note that comments on price and condition are NOT permitted.

• Do NOT PM an authenticator or Mod to request authentications. Any and all such requests must be posted in this thread.

I wrote in this forum back in December and haven’t gotten a response. This “Fendi” purse was gifted to me for Christmas but after doing a reverse image search to find out if it was real I had doubts that it was authentic. Reading so many different opinions gave me mixed reviews so I called in a few Fendi stores and the reps were kind enough to allow me to send pictures to their personal phones to help me verify authenticity. The reps said it was real but then a few places I called that I didn’t send pictures to said Fendi bags have hologram on tags on number or leather tag and neither applied to this bag. The only set of number this purse has are the ones that are on a tag inside the bag pictured below. Please HELPPPPP!

Hi! I’ve bought this old and very much worn Fendi Baguette in maybe 2004(?) from Ebay and being young and naive I just believed it was authentic. I didn’t have any reason to think otherwise.. I thought I didn’t have this anymore but recently found this. Could this be authentic? Thank you so much if someone has the time to help me.

Hi, could somebody please authenticate this bag? I already have a feeling it's not real, but I'm not an expert on Fendi. From what I've researched online the serial number should be 16 or 17 characters & this has only 15?

Also, this same exact item is listed by two different sellers. I contacted them & they informed me they both work for the same boss so they share items to list (??). Pictures are different, but show the same bag & serial numbers. TIA!

Hi everybody! When you have a moment may you please help me authenticate this item? Please let me know if more pictures are needed. Thank you.
Item Name: Fendi Bag Bug.

Item Name (if you know it): I think it’s something along the lines of: FENDI the forever black neoprene baguette
Link:https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Authentic-FENDI-Mamma-Baguette-Hand-Bag-Canvas-Black-90026/333505411854?ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649#viTabs_0
Seller ID (eBay): next-innovation-au
Serial Number: 2321_26566.018

Everything seems good to me, the only thing that I am concerned about is the Fendi engraving on the side of the front buckle. I have compared other photos of the same bag from other listings and everything seems to match except for this...The last line of the " e “ is barely visible and is a lot thinner compared to the other lines. Is it perhaps just a defect or a sign that it is unauthentic?
More context of the bag:
I got it from a Japanese seller on eBay and they had many great reviews and provided a lot of photos and details about the bag except for this.. The bag has an overall nice weight to it (weighs about 400g/0.9 pounds) and the material does feel nice. Also the bag came sticky from age presumably.

There isn’t much information about this bag so if anyone knows anything please let me know.

Thank you so much in advance for your help, it is greatly appreciated.

I am not an authenticator; however, seeing as how none have responded I will try to assist you to the best of my abilities. I personally do not feel as if this authentic. The stitching is questionable along with the hardware. If it were authentic, this would probably be from the late 1970s - 1980s.

Just inquiring the last authentication was in January.. I’m hoping we that didn’t purchase from a site aren’t posting incorrectly. And I don’t want to keep posting just Incase I’ve done it correctly.
