First off, you got the whole “Made in Italy” vibe with Fendi. Super fancy, right? But then you gotta figure out HOW that fancy-ness gets to your door. And that’s where the local shipping stuff comes in.
I saw something about “Flexible, Reliable Local Delivery” on Facebook Marketplace for used Fendi bags in Hong Kong. See, *that’s* already interesting. It’s like, high fashion meeting, well, Facebook Marketplace. And it makes you think, are you getting the legit Fendi experience or just a sweet deal? (I mean, a deal is a deal, but still…)
Then Nordstrom chimes in with “Shipping is always free and returns are accepted.” Which is awesome! But then you look at the Fendi site itself and they’re like, “Shipping is free… from the nearest Fendi location.” So it sounds like Nordstrom might be more flexible overall in terms of free shipping. Though Saks, blegh, needs a $100 minimum. Like, who spends LESS than $100 at Saks, anyway? (Okay, me. Sometimes. But still!).
And then the whole “Ararity’s Huge Weekly Weird Treasure Sale!” thing… I’m just gonna say that throws me off completely. What does that have to do with Fendi? Is it like a Fendi-adjacent treasure sale? Are there maybe some gently used Fendi accessories hiding amongst the other weird treasures? I need answers, people!
So, my take? Fendi and local shipping is kinda all over the place. You gotta really pay attention to who you’re buying from and what their shipping policies are. The actual Fendi site seems pretty good, especially if you’re near a boutique. But if you’re cruising Facebook Marketplace for a bargain, you gotta be extra careful and check those delivery options.
