I want to be clear, I don’t believe I am a FENDI expert at all, I have however done extensive research based on my past experience. I did let The Real Real know that this bag is a fake. However they insist the bag is real and have since relisted this item.

I'm super upset. They just sent me a fake. First purchase too. Hoping the handle this quickly. Can't understand how a company can have this many issues.
Oh no!!! I’m so sorry😞 Come back and let me know how it goes. It’s so traumatizing!! I hope they do the right thing.
Ohhh mama! I just saw you on the CNBC news you shared in the group chat. Wow glad you reached out to Fendi customer service and found out this is fake and TRR still re-enlisted the item. 🤦🏻♀️ This is a very helpful video. Thanks for sharing your experience. It’s really scary and hard to trust these consignment store.
So unfortunate for your to receive a fake bag, at least you can still get your money back. Thanks for sharing your experience
I did receive my money back, thank you. I agree, I really loved the design. TFW
omg it looks so real. i have a fendi bag bought new and just checked the tag there is a plastic piece in the tag! but just by looking at it i can't tell!!!!!!!
I almost ordered from them. I guess I won't ): I hope you managed to snag a proper beautiful bag in the future.
Can’t be mad at them though, I was refunded. Awe!! Thanks so much! I actually did finally snag a Peekaboo from Rebag 🤩🤩🤩. Really appreciate you watching 😘
@@melikeetoo no worries! Yay! At least you got what you wanted in the end ♡
I have heard that the Real Real often misrepresents the quality of their bags.. it’s really frustrating.
The color combo is so pretty, it’s a stunning bag
I agree! Color combo was stunning. Was trying to convince myself it was authentic! Thanks so much for your feedback and for watching.
This video deserves wayyyyyyyyy more views. and you deserve wayyyy more followers!
I really appreciate that. Thanks so much 🥰
Amazing video. Thank you for sharing your experience- it’s so scary how many good fakes there are, and that the big companies like RealReal are authenticating them! It’s also disgusting that certain UA-camrs with thousands of followers support and purchase from these businesses. I’m sickened that RealReal insists it’s real and has relisted it. Thank you for sharing this! Buyers beware, please please, Do your research!!!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thanks for being such and amazing friend through all the handbag drama surrounding the peekaboo. It’s clear I’m not meant to have one at this time 😞. But I couldn’t have gotten through any of it without you! 🥰🥰🥰🥰
Thank you for your informative video. I bought a fake Louis Vuitton Noe BB from the Real Real. How I found out was I tried to sell it to FASHIONPHILE and they deemed it unauthentic. I trust FASHIONPHILE more now than the real real. Thankfully The Real Real is giving me a full refund even though I bought the bag 3 months ago. So that’s good. Just the hassle of it all, I’ll not be buying from RR again.
I do have to give it to the real real for standing by their product! I too got my money back, so glad to hear they did right by you. Really appreciate you watching, so glad you found it helpful 🥰
Thank you for sharing this video. I'm sorry to hear about your experience! xoxo
Thanks for watching Jill.
What is so disheartening is that preloved items are so highly sought after that the item could be in poor condition and someone may still want the item. The real real should be honest in their descriptions and post photos to show damage. Fashionphile posts clear detailed pics that can be blown up. They also do a great job identifying damage, sometimes I think they are over critical but that shows the extreme consideration they put into their listings. Shame shame for them selling young fake.
OMG Yvette! I’m so glad you were knowledgeable enough to tell it was a fake! I think as a consumer we tend to believe these reputable sites only sell authentic but this just shows how important it is to double authenticate everything! I hope the real real destroys that bag! Thanks so much for sharing and educating us!! ❤️❤️❤️
I’m so glad you found it helpful! As sadly as mentioned in the video The Real Real has re-listed this item, which upsets me so much! One of the reason I opted to make this video.
No! Even though you told them it seems like a fake?? It makes me rethink purchasing from the real real ever. 😠
They don't destroy it. As a matter of fact they sell it back on their site. Same thing happened to me. They sold me a fake designer bag and returned it to them. A week later i got my refund i checked their website and sure enough, its back on the site and for a lot higher price than what i paid for.
Sarah Oliva That’s appalling! After I called them to let them know it was scratched I checked the website and it was already in the “See It First” section of their website. It’s interesting to hear so many people with a similar experience. Thanks so much for sharing.
@@melikeetoo it's really unfortunate that people spend their hard earned money just to be scammed by this site.
When the family cat decides to adopt a purse as his scratch post, that isn't the time to sell it for or real money. Ugh...😒😒😒😒😒. Keep looking for a real, and nice bag that gets you excited. There must be one out there.
Melissa Bill Thank you so much Melissa, I have since found my perfect Peekaboo that I am obsessively using. So appreciate you watching🥰
This is exactly why people should not buy from the real real. Their authentication "experts" are just normal staff with minimal training.
I absolutely agree. Thanks for watching 🥰
Wow, your Fendi Dedigner review was very helpful and informative about the REAL REAL website. Sorry, if you experience this fake handbag. 👜Good luck with everything!
lovinpaws lovinpaws I’m so happy to hear you found it useful! That is always the intended purpose. Thank you so much for watching and your good wishes! Have a great week! 🥰
I just recently purchased an mcm purse from them hopefully it’s not fake
I can’t spend my money on something that’s hopefully real.
I just ordered two marc jacobs bags. Love your bag but to be fair, the listing does say scratches throughout the exterior!! I personally think leather looks better with age so dont mind a little wear on my bags at the price i got them but they cant be fakes!!
Zenobia Sethna I believe the description used words as faint and minor to describe the scratches. They were neither faint or minor. As indicated, the scratches weren’t deal breakers for me either. The fact that the item was a fake was. I have since purchased a pre-loved peekaboo, that has some wear. Thank you so much for watching have a great rest of your week❣️
The tag wasn't stitched all the way around. I saw it when you where rubbing the tag between your fingers. It could have come off, as all serial numbers and holagrams do, even on Chanel.
I assure you it was. I inspected bag thoroughly and as mentioned had an previous experience with another fake. Thanks for watching.
Thank u for your video, I've learn a lot from the video and wont be purchasing any items from the real real at all
Sazon Man I’m so happy you found it useful. Really appreciate you watching.
Oh no!!!! But why doesn't TRR authenticate it properly???
I think a rumor has been going around that runway pieces don’t always have RFID’s I think it’s caught fire. Thank for watching Tania 🥰🥰
Great video babe! ❤️I think it’s so great that you did this video.😘It’s so unfortunate that it didn’t work out. The search continues! By the way, I can’t believe they relisted the item! 😱
Hi Mama!!! Thanks for watching and yes the search continues for sure!! Me either!! I think it’s why I opted to make the video. Have a great week🥰
So sorry to hear about your experience. But the bag is so pretty though
Wasn’t it?? I totally agree I wanted SO much to believe it was authentic. Thanks for watching mama! 🥰
Thank you for sharing these things!! I hope you can eventually find another one that’s real and taken care of. 💕❣️
I know, I hope so too. Thanks Deleen!🥰
Hi dear I Am looking at a Fendi Baguette Monster fr a reseller, it was out on 2014. Qns is there’s a RFID + Hologram shown on e photo given. You mentioned on 2014 , it shld be a Tag + Hologram. After 2014 is RFID + tag. Why is mine RFID + Hologram ? Is it fake ? Pls help ??? Thanks so much 😅
Hi, sorry I accidentally responded to your comment on someone else’s comment and just realized it. In any case here is some additional info I found you may find helpful monalisalikes.com/fendi-bags-authentication/
Hi dear , I dm you on Instagram - could u pls take a look ,? Photos r there . And yes I’ve seen this blog post before. I just need your confirmation 🤣.
Love your explanations. My peekaboo has plastic in the fabric label but it doesn’t have a pocket on the other side. Is this really a definitive indicator that it is fake?
Thank You so much for doing this video. I need to check mine. I bought from Yoogiscloset and I didn’t check at all. I’m so mad of those preloved market to sell fake bags. I don’t know how much I can trust them at more. Thank You dear for sharing ❤️
Oh Irene!! I’m glad you found it informative, your bag looked authentic to me, but I’d definitely give it a second look just for peace of mind! Big hugs Irene 🥰
I love watching reviews video. I haven’t bought anything from real real. I am scared to buy preloved bag. The color of the bag is very beautiful, I’m sorry you have to deal with this. The bag had a lot of scratch i can see in the video too. I’m glad at least you get your money back. Thank you for sharing it is very helpful.
Sabina Stone Happy you found it useful, thanks so much for watching.
TRR takes legitimate photos of their items which show all the flaws and they have pretty great descriptions of all the flaws which explains the price reduction. I’m surprised they did not make it clear on the listing of the scratches
Edit: I saw the listing. The photo does not show how bad the scratching was. I’m sorry it didn’t work out :(
You really can’t trust their photos. I received a bag that had significant damage on the corner that very conveniently was not shown in their photos.
Thank you for the RFID trick! I definitely used it when I received my preloved peekaboo.
I’m so happy to hear you found it helpful. Congrats on your new piece!! The peekaboo is an amazing bag❣️
it's a very informative Dear.. you share a lot of knowledge about Fendy bag. so sorry to hear about the bag. hopefully u can get what u've been looking for. Thanks for sharing Dear
Happy you found it helpful. I hope so as well! Thanks for watching 🥰
Great tips on how to spot a fake! It looks like a very good copy! How disappointing!
I agree! I’m still bummed about the whole thing. Thanks for watching 🥰
Got a fake Chanel today from the real real. Logo on the inside was crooked. Nothing has improved with their authenticity. Shame on them.
So sorry to hear, they didn’t seem in a hurry to fix the issue when speaking to them. Not surprised.
Well, then I guess the only guarantee for authenticity is to go buy directly from stores and boutiques.
I would agree. Thanks for watching 💕
Just for your information. There was literally a Chanel boutique here in Kuala Lumpur selling SUPER FAKE. Right in the most luxurious mall. Everything seemed really legitimate until one day cops show up. Who knows how many customers bought from that store. Plz search online articles for more detail. Be careful, always!
Is it possible madam that the previous owner just removed the RFID?
The tag was intact and stitched all around. Someone removing the RFID wouldn’t make much sense either to be honest. Thanks for watching.
It is such a beautiful bag !! Such a shame that its not on the condition described! Its a fake?? I get a lot of things at The Real Real but I always do double check authenticity for everything because I have been scammed before on other pre-loved websites. Sorry this happened to you.
Thanks amiga! This is my 3rd time getting a fake in my entire luxury shopping life. Thankfully I can always sniff them out. TFW
I wonder if the RFID plastic part was removed from the previous owner?
Someone else had the same idea, but the tag was stitched all the way around 🤷🏻♀️
@@melikeetoo oh yeah! ☹️
Ok, so I guess you let TRR know you believed the bag was not authentic. What did they do then? I would love to hear their side of the story too...
Ana Paula Ghisellini I did notify them in store. As stated in my video, they insisted the bag authentic and they relisted and re-sold the bag. There is a news report out from CNBC that investigated them recently for this very thing. It’s on youtube. Thanks for watching mama.
Thank you for sharing this idea!! from Korea.
Thanks so much for watching.
Wow, a first time buyer can be easily fooled.
I completely agree, especially with so many bigger influencers being paid to promote the company. Thanks so much for watching.
Hi Yvette, so sorry it's happen to you. The combo is beautiful. I am on a hunt for green bag. But, since green is very specific color I don't want to get super expensive brand like Chanel or Fendi. Remember, Balenciaga green bag. I am still considering that one, as long as I can find on sale.
I’m such a fan of Olive green! It’s SO beautiful and unconventional! Green croc is good too! Sale prices are always a better incentive to buy 😂. Will keep an eye out for you 💕
I’ve read/heard by other UA-camrs of fakes on the RealReal.
Sadly it’s a common practice with them. Thanks so much for watching.
I have heard that they had quotas of how many items needed to he authenticated per day so I can assume employees felt pressured. Some of their items have great prices but they provide horrible quality pictures and poor descriptions.
Wow how frustrating! I hate how TRR and Fashionphile let so many fake pieces pass through. Especially ones that are blatantly fake. Hopefully you can find the peekaboo of your dreams 😢
I’ve never shopped Fashionphile, I’m told they are better than TRR but I’m kind of jaded now. Crossing my finger for a dreamy peekaboo 🥰. Thanks for watching mama!
Fashionphile is much better ive neverrr had a problem with them and from looking at your video their dust bags are much better quality than the real real!😊
Netta Noììr I hear a lot of positive feedback regarding Fashionphile. I have no faith in the real real sadly. Thanks so much for sharing your experience with me 🥰. Have a beautiful night.
Oh Yvette I’m so sorry this happened to you especially as it’s such a gorgeous bag!!! Good thing you’re experienced enough to know 😅 Can’t believe RealReal has relisted it though...that’s pretty unethical IMO. Thanks so much for doing this video as I’m sure it’ll help many people to know what to look for, myself included. You’re a 🌟🌷🌷🌷
I agree, it was GORGEOUS! I saw this design back in February and was bummed to know it was from 2016! Imagine how excited I was when it came up on TRR! I’m appalled they resisted the item!! When I took the bag in they had me speak to an authenticator, who insisted the bag was real! Shameful really!
melikeetoo I’ve seen their items being sold on Vestiaire Collective and have been tempted a couple of times to buy from them. That’s not gonna happen now! 😮 Glad you got your refund.
Thanks so much for sharing, it's unfortunate it didn't work out and it wasn't what you were expecting.
I hope you are able to get excalty what you want doll! 😉
I’m sure at some point the perfect peekaboo will be mine. Thanks Charaye
Hi , Is there a place where bags can be authenticated? In France shops can do this, and some designer copies are also worth a lot of money. In addition some artisans can fix bags that need refreshing and it may still be worth it depending on value and price paid? How much did they charge you compared to the "real" peek a boo value? Thanks :)
Real Real is extremely overpriced and they sold me a fake dior... TERRIBLE
Omg...The is beautiful but those scratches is terrible. I’ve never bought pre-loved this makes me nervous to buy pre-loved now.
Even if you tell them it’s fake they still put it bag on the website that’s why I don’t buy from them because anything that can be a replica they have it 😂
Sucks that this happened to you but thank you for sharing this experience!
I appreciate it, thank you.
They sold me a fake pair of Balenciaga speed trainers for only $100 off retail. 😤
They sold me fake Gucci and louis and best believe both were fake. I threatened to file a dispute and so they gave my money back
Katalyst552 WOW! I hear so many bigger youtubers collaborate with them and they say nothing but good things about them. Glad you too were able to spot the fakes! Thanks so much for sharing 😘
@@melikeetoo amberscholl was one of the ones that marketed them so I'm like its gotta be real so I went and bought 2 pre loved bags. So in love till I did my own inspection. Even though it says no returns, I made it clear that I will file a dispute and you know paypal got my back so ima need my schmoney back and get myself THEREALREAL BAG from the store.
I have seen her film a lot of Real Real Collaboration videos! Im so happy to hear you got your money back. I too rather buy in store than pre-loved. I have opted for pre-loved with certain bags, but I have a built in fake detector, that hasn’t let me down yet 💕. Have an amazing rest of your week.
I ordered a Kate Spade from them. I’ll be here Monday. Here’s hoping it’s real! If not, at least it’s cute 🤷🏼♀️
Best of luck with your new purchase! Enjoy your new bag 🥰. Thanks for watching.
The real real site is a scam. They send you fakes and bags in worst condition than described. With a “no return” policy. Super shady business.
And why I do buy used bags
Wow i feel you pain😞😞😞
Thank you for this video! Ugh! I hate that this has happened to you! Thank You again for doing this video!
Really appreciate your kindness. Thank you for watching, I do hope you found it helpful 💕
Why buy luxury, if one cannot afford new from boutique
Wendy RS Thats such an interesting comment, not certain why you believe it’s an affordability issue, there are plenty of items that sell for a lot higher than retail on the resell market, such as a Hermes Birking and Kelly, even a speedy nano sells for more. Have a beautiful weekend and a Happy Valentine’s Day 🥰
🙄
I never buy used ...
Wendy RS my sisters name is Wendy 💕
I just bought the Chanel bag from Real real,can u help me how you get the money back?please help me.Im scared that was fake
Did u end up getting your money ack?
Chow Girl it’s final sale,I don’t think i can do it . 😞
@@TranNguyen-vs8nd :( I feel for you
It’s a beautiful design ! I’m sorry it’s not authentic 😭😭😭 they better give you you’re money back !!
I know!!! I really loved the combo and so wanted to keep it! It actually recently sold again on TRR! I did get my money back. Thank you ☺️
melikeetoo I can’t believe they sold again knowing it’s fake 😓
Thanks for sharing!!!
I can relate I bought a vintage Gucci bag from them and it came without the serial number is unbelievable and it says is last sale so means coulnt return it but I didn’t know it didn’t have the serial number inside honestly they suck is sad UA-camrs are rating them and telling people to buy from them
I couldn’t agree with you more. I hear nothing but good things from bigger youtubers about the real real, some due to sponsorships others feel like their collections would be discredited if they acknowledge the issues with TRR. I’m sure if yo my contact your credit card company they would be able to refund you. Just request a chargeback. I’m so sorry to hear about your experience.
Buy new
Wendy RS I love buying new as well as finding amazing deals on the resell market.
