First off, the whole “overrun stock” thing. Basically, it means like, extra shoes Fendi made, but didn’t sell through the official channels. Maybe they made too many, maybe they had slight imperfections (we’re talkin’ *slight*, hopefully), maybe they just needed to clear space in the warehouse. Whatever the reason, these babies are out there.
Now, you see these popping up places, right? Like some random Instagram account in Bangkok (that +66 number is a dead giveaway, lol). And they’re promising Fendi at, like, $5.20 a pop. Okay, hold up. Let’s be real. That sounds *waaaay* too good to be true, right? I mean, we’re talkin’ Fendi, not some knock-off from the corner store.
My personal opinion? Proceed with *extreme* caution. I’m not saying *every* overrun stock seller is a scammer, but the odds are…well, they’re not in your favor. That price point is screaming “replica,” or “factory reject” in a way that might mean a shoe missing a sole or something. You know? Like, you might end up with something you can’t even wear.
Then you got places like StockX, where you can buy and sell *verified* Fendi sneakers. Now, *that’s* a bit more legit. You’re paying market price, which is gonna be MUCH higher than 5 bucks (duh!), but you’re also getting some assurance that you’re not getting ripped off.
And then you got stuff like the Fendi denim sneakers. Those are legit, I think, like, being sold at designer prices. That’s a whole other thing, if you’re looking for that sort of thing.
