Alright so you know how everyone’s losing their minds over Fendi doing Pokémon stuff? Yeah, saw it all over social media too. Thought, ‘How bad could the price be?’. Man, I had zero clue what I was getting into.
The Big “Let’s Find Out” Moment
Popped open my laptop first thing Tuesday morning, coffee in hand. Went straight to the Fendi website. Typed “Pokemon” in the search bar, fingers crossed.
- Nothing. Nada. Zilch.
- Scrolled through “New Arrivals”. Just bags and coats looking like… regular Fendi. Ugh.
- Checked the “Collaborations” section. Still zip. Felt kinda dumb, not gonna lie.
So I switched gears. Hit up some big department store sites I remembered sometimes get this stuff early. Searched again:
- Saks? Saw pics! But everything said “Coming Soon” or worse, “Sold Out” already? How??
- Neiman Marcus? Same deal. Teaser images, no prices, no buy button.
- Farfetch, SSENSE, Matches – just dead ends or vague promises. Starting to feel like a wild Goose chase.
The Price Hunt Gets Ugly
Got desperate. Decided to brave the weird, unofficial sites. You know, the ones that might have info but definitely sketch you out.
Searched Google like a madman: “Fendi Pokemon how much”, “Fendi Pikachu bag price”. Most results were useless articles repeating “It’s coming!” or sketchy reseller sites with prices that looked completely made up – like $5,000 for a tiny pouch. Yeah, right.
Finally found a fashion news site I kinda trust. They dropped some numbers, but damn:
- Biggest brown Baguette bag? Over $5,000. Gulp.
- Medium one? Still hovering around $3,400. For a bag?
- Cute mini charm thingy? $1,200 minimum. Seriously?
My Take? Ouch.
So turns out, finding a solid price before the stuff sells out everywhere is basically a part-time job. You gotta be glued to sites, refresh constantly, and hope you get lucky.
And the prices? Pure insanity. Honestly? Most pieces seem to start around $1,000 and just climb straight into the stratosphere from there. Unless you’ve got deep pockets or really need Pikachu on your purse, it’s a tough pill to swallow. Looks cool? Absolutely. Worth emptying your savings? Jury’s still out for me.
Total headache trying to get real info before launch day. Maybe just admire the pictures online, save your cash and sanity. Almost threw my phone at one point. Why bother? Rich folks and sneaker bots win again.
