First off, forget buying brand new. Unless you’ve got a sugar daddy (or mommy!), that’s probably not happening. You’re looking at pre-loved, second-hand, *previously adored* (read: used) territory. And even then, “cheap” is relative. We’re talking designer bag, not a grocery store tote. Duh.
I saw some stuff online, Vestiaire Collective seems like a decent place to start. They got “second-hand Fendi Kan I Bags,” so that’s a plus. But “second-hand” can mean anything from “barely used” to “looks like it survived a zombie apocalypse.” Gotta be careful, do your research, read the descriptions, check the pics like you’re CSI-ing a crime scene! ‘Cause sometimes, people try to pull a fast one, selling bags that are, well, let’s just say “well-loved” to the point of disintegration.
The RealReal also popped up. “Shop fendi kan i authenticated by experts at up to 90% off.” Sounds tempting, right? But, like, “up to 90% off” probably means that *one* bag that nobody wants ’cause it’s got a weird stain or something. Still worth a look, though, maybe you’ll get lucky.
Amazon and Noon.com are in the mix too, I guess? Honestly, I’m a bit sus about buying a Fendi bag from those places. Seems like a good way to get scammed, if you ask me. But hey, if you’re feeling brave, go for it. Just, like, double-check everything. Triple-check. Maybe even hire a private investigator. (Okay, I’m kidding. Mostly.)
And then there’s this random thing about “Kani- kama é um bastão feito com carne de peixe…” What the heck does fake crab meat have to do with Fendi bags?! Google Translate, you’re drunk. Go home.
Here’s the real tea: finding a *cheap* Fendi Kan I is all about patience and compromise. You might have to settle for a slightly older model, a less popular color, or a bag with a teeny-tiny scratch that nobody will ever notice (except you, because you’ll be staring at it every five seconds).
