What we look at on a Fendi
Fendi has been in Rome since 1925 and Karl Lagerfeld designed for it for fifty-four years, which is the longest such run in fashion. The Baguette effectively invented the modern It bag in 1997, and the Peekaboo and the FF Zucca monogram carry the house today.
- Serial and the Selleria number where present
- The twist clasp on the Peekaboo, which should turn cleanly with no play
- Interior lining, visible by design on the Peekaboo and therefore priced closely
- Fur and shearling trims: condition, and whether they are original to the bag
- Monogram canvas edges and corner wear
Fendi bags we buy
- Peekaboo
- The twin-compartment bag that opens to show its lining. Interior condition matters unusually much.
- Baguette
- The original It bag, reissued repeatedly. Early examples are collected.
- Sunshine and First
- The newer tote and the sculpted-clasp shoulder bag.
- FF Zucca and Zucchino monogram
- Canvas monogram pieces across many shapes.
- Selleria
- Hand-stitched leather line, usually numbered.
- And many others
- This list is where most people start, not where we stop. We buy across the range including discontinued lines, seasonal colours, collaborations and pieces we have never seen before. If it is not here, it is still worth asking about.
Not listed? We buy across the range, including discontinued and vintage pieces. Call (619) 236-9603 or send photos and we will tell you where it sits.
How selling a Fendi here works
- 1
Show us the bag
Bring it to 907 6th Ave, San Diego, CA 92101, or send photographs of the exterior, the interior stamp, the hardware and any wear. Photographs are enough for a range; the firm number needs the bag in hand.

Authenticate, then get paid
Our specialists personally examine your bag and use authentication tools such as Entrupy as appropriate to the bag and agreed process. Once its authenticity is confirmed, we pay you by cash or check for the agreed purchase price or loan amount. Any fee for an Unidentified or other non-authentic result is subject to the terms discussed and agreed before authentication.
Questions people ask first
Is an old Fendi Baguette worth anything?
Frequently more than people expect. The late-1990s and early-2000s originals are collected as the first It bag, and the sequinned and embroidered ones especially. Do not assume age has cost it value.
My Peekaboo lining is marked. How much does that matter?
More than on most bags, because the Peekaboo is designed to be worn open with the lining showing. It is priced in rather than disqualifying, and we will show you what we are seeing.
Do you buy Fendi with fur trim?
Yes. Condition of the fur, and whether it is original to the piece, are what we look at. Bring any detachable trims and charms you still have.
How much is my Fendi bag worth?
It comes down to the model, the condition and how complete it is, and then to what that particular Fendi is doing on the resale market this month. We will not quote a figure sight unseen, because a number invented over the phone is either wrong or a way of getting you through the door. Send photos including the interior stamp and we will give you a range before you travel.
Do I have to bring my Fendi into the store?
No. Most people do, because the verbal appraisal happens in front of you. Payment follows your accepted offer and successful authentication. If you are not in San Diego, start with photographs and a consultation. Staff confirms suitability, the approved kit or label, insurance, inspection timing and return arrangements before you send the bag.
Can I borrow against my Fendi instead of selling it?
Yes, and people do this more often than you would expect with a bag they are attached to. A collateral loan leaves you the owner while we hold it in a climate-controlled vault. No credit check, nothing reported to a credit bureau, no minimum and no maximum. Four month term, redeemable early, and the bag is never displayed or worn.
How quickly do I get paid for a Fendi?
Once your accepted offer and successful authentication are complete, we pay the agreed purchase price or loan amount by cash or check. Timing depends on the bag and the review required. Bring a valid government-issued photo ID: California law requires it from anyone selling to a licensed buyer.
When might an authentication fee apply?
If Entrupy returns an Unidentified or other non-authentic result, a fee may apply depending on the bag and its accompanying documentation. We explain the potential amount and when it would apply, discuss it with you, and obtain your agreement before authentication begins.
We also buy Louis Vuitton, Chanel and Hermès. Prefer to keep the bag? Borrow against it. Not local? Sell from home after staff confirms the arrangements.
