Don't Get Snagged By A Fake Handbag

Fake Fendi Part One

In this guide we have illustrated some details about

real Fendi handbags

on ebay and other domains that will help you weed out the fakes. This is in no way a conclusive or complete guide to every detail about Fendi, but it has enough information to highly increase you chances of spotting the fake Fendi handbags. Combining some of these brand specific points with the universal tells we have listed should help keep you insulated from many of the fake Fendi handbags in the open market.

Note: Many of the images we show to highlight a specific tell, also have another tell within the same photo. When this occurs we will try to point out the secondary tell also. However, on occasion we may miss some of the secondary tells in the photos. So we encourage you the reader to inspect the images for other tells to help increase your spotting skills.

We recommmend that you read our tutorial Spot Fake Handbags first, to learn the universal tips essential to build a foundation for spotting fake handbag tells. Then reinforce that foundation with the brand specific tells we highlight here.

As we get more details we will add them. Also, if you the reader have anything else to add, please email it to us, we will be glad to add it to the site, info@spotfakehandbags.com. If we use your tip we will refrence you and add your web/blog link if applicable.

1. The Fendi Spy glass wand:

The hardware is gold and silver tone. Some new Spy's have all one color.
An authentic Fendi wand is woven all the way to the top and bottom, often the fake Fendi wand is not woven all the way.

2. Fendi Spy glass end cap:

Should be thick with lip upwards.
The FENDI logo will be engraved on the inside.
The inner engraving will be smooth. You will not be able to feel the word FENDI.
If the glass end cap is thin it is a sure sign of a fake Fendi.

3. Fendi Screws

Authentic Fendi screws will be a flat head (-). Often times fake Fendi's will have philips head srews (+).

4. Fendi coin purse.

The hinges should have a two piece mechanism that rotates opposite each other. If the hinge is not a two piece hinge it is a fake Fendi.

6. Fendi interior metal label

An authentic Fendi label should be a metal square with leather background.
The fendi label should read: "MADE IN ITALY" and "FENDI".
The leather background corners should be square and not rounded. If the leather corners are rounded in any way it is a fake Fendi.
