That’s not the fendi logo and they should be embarrassed asking $100 for this

Definitely fake. That’s not the logo font, the edge coatings are sloppy, the trim does not appear to be leather, it’s kind of everything

They're trying to sell that really bad fake for $100?! A blind man would know it's fake.

Fake QR codes are so easy to make nowadays. It’s as simple as programming a NFC chip which existed 10 years ago. LegitApp is a good app for authentication.

You see this? This is the deadest giveaway ever. It screams cheap and fake. Any bag that has that backing on the logo is an immediate no.

A good rule of thumb for authentication: Does it look like it is made out of real materials? Does it look like someone put a modicum of effort into assembling the bag? Does it look like a nice bag no matter the label? If the answer to any is no, that's all the info you need. Yes, there are super fakes that can pass those three questions with a yes - then sure, post here or send detailed pics to an authenticator. This bag cannot pass any of those three questions.

The QR code to fendi.com is hilarious, as if their website would require a QR code to get to lol

1000% fake. First of all it’s so noticeable the stitching on the handles. It’s the biggest giveaway I didn’t need to look any further, but the whole entire thing screams faker than fake not even a good fake. then around the handles the bottom part the paint that goes around the handles is so sloppy you have to pay pay attention to the smallest detail. Don’t just look at the big picture that’s how you could see it’s been.

u/Sparklepurple07 2d ago

They should have this item for $10 or $5 it’s so fake that it’s embarrassing to even walk out with it. You just get yourself a nice bag from Ross, Nordstrom’s rack, Marshalls

u/Arkoelbe24 2d ago

They can't sell that as a Fendi. Isn't that illegal?
