Fendi Baguette in Cream Canvas from TS Mr.Gary
Disclosure
None! Bags were on sale and no additional discounts were given. Mr.Gary did not know I would be writing a review at time of purchase.
CCW! I am a sucker for sales and this time was no different. All accuracy checks are compared to videos and pictures since I do not have the physical auths to compare to.

Fendi Baguette in Cream Canvas
Photos
- My photo
- PSPs
- Factory photos: post was removed from his sale’s album before I downloaded factory photos
- Authentic: fashionphile
Quality - 9.5/10
- “F”s on fabric are nice quality and embroidered very well.
- Engraving on hardware is clean and deep
- (-0.5) stitching on the side of one strap is a little messy
- Zipper is smooth and sewn on straight
- Magnet closure is very strong
- All screws are pointing the same way on clasp
Accuracy - 8.5/10
- Color of canvas and strap seem to match various listings I have seen
- (-1) stitching on the leather clasp portion in auth is light and matches the canvas of the bag. Rep’s stitching matches the leather. Would be something someone can call you out on if they were super into Fendi. However, this style isn’t sold anymore so less likely for someone to know about it.
- Inside engraving and strap engraving looks identical to auth.
- (-0.5) Number of “F”s across the canvas seems to line up for the most part (I see varying number across the front flap on fashionphile listings).
- 6 sideways pairs of F’s across the bottom with a center seam
- 2.5 pairs along the side
- 6 clean pairs of F’s on the center row across back (3 rows total)
- 4 visible pairs of “F”s across the front flap where the leather closure is along with 1 “ | “ on either side (some bags have more of an “F” while others have more of an “|”
- the deduction comes from the fact that the bottom of the front canvas on my rep starts with a clean line of “F”s while the auths seem to start with the top half of the “F”s.
Satisfaction - 10/10
The Fendi Baguette has my heart and I will love any version of it. For a mid-tier bag on sale, this bag is very good quality. It can carry everything I need to for a night out or while running errands. The shoulder strap is a good length to keep the bag comfortably under your arm or on your elbow.
Seller Communication and Service - 10/10
Mr. Gary is such a nice TS. He is always very responsive and willing to answer all your questions. He was so prompt with PSPs and shipping out the package. I never felt like I was left in the dark when ordering with him.

Yours looks amazing!!! ⏤ by piscatology0918 (↑ 2/ ↓ 0)
Wow, I’m pretty amazed with the LV Speedy in the Damier! I have this exact bag that is authentic and your bag is pretty much it! I’ve seen a lot of terrible fakes but your LV is the best fake I have seen yet! I think it could even be in the “Super Fakes” category that came out about five years ago that even the experts were having a tough time authenticating. I hope you let us know how it’s holding up. It looks awesome. Congrats to you!! ⏤ by anasanfran (↑ 1/ ↓ 0)
