Submitted a vintage nylon/neoprene Fendi baguette which I got from a reputable Japanese eBay seller to their Fendi "authenticate this" forum. The stamping of the lowest line of the "E" on the side of the logo was a bit faint, but legit- everything about the bag checked out from the back of the zipper, perfect stitching and overall quality feel. They took so long to respond so I decided to ask an expert - a professional who authenticates and sells designer bags for a LIVING. They thought despite the stamping, they thought it was legit. But a few week later TPF person - "A" said it was fake! So who would you believe? A PROFESSIONAL who does this for a LIVING for many YEARS or some random person who isn't even a professional, and is an "authenticator" by name only? The authenticators on the website don't even have professional standing so you definitely can't take their word 100% of the time. Also, I've noticed that the authenticators act so superior and arrogant. I appreciate they are providing their "service" for free but come on - there's no need to treat people horribly. You may end up waiting for ages, for them to only skip your request and pick the next one. Why? Because they can!
