Alright, folks, gather ’round, let me tell you about my latest adventure in the world of fashion. I’ve been on the hunt for a specific Fendi bag, the “Zucca Oyster” or “Zucchino Oyster Shoulder Bag”. I saw it on the official Fendi flagship store and I just knew I had to have it. This wasn’t just any ordinary shopping spree; this was a mission, a quest for the perfect bag.
I started by scouring the internet, typing in every possible keyword: “Fendi Zucchino,” “Fendi Oyster,” “8BH023,” you name it. I found out that this beauty is usually beige, made of black Zucchino canvas, and has these cool tonal leather trimmings. Man, it looked good even just in pictures.
Then I started checking out different online stores. I saw a bunch of listings on global sites, with prices all over the place. One was $770, another was $700, and then there was this crazy one for almost $10,000! I even stumbled upon some used ones, but I wanted mine brand spanking new.
Next, I checked out those big-name department stores online, hoping they’d have it. I looked through Macy’s, checked if they had any deals on shipping or something, and then hopped over to QVC, just in case they had some special value thing going on. No luck there either.
I even tried The RealReal, you know, that luxury consignment place? They had some, but they were pre-owned, and I was really set on getting a new one. Plus, there was this 20% off thing, but it still wasn’t what I was looking for.
After all that searching, I started digging into Fendi’s history. Turns out, it was started by Adele Fendi way back in 1925. They’re known for their elegance and those fine details. I also found out that prices can vary a lot between countries because of taxes and stuff. Like, up to 38% difference between Paris and the USA! Crazy, right?
Anyway, after all this, I finally decided to go for it and ordered the bag directly from the Fendi flagship store. It was a bit pricey, but hey, it’s Fendi. And it was exactly what I wanted.
- Searched online for “Fendi Zucca Oyster Bag” and “Zucchino Oyster Shoulder Bag”.
- Compared prices and conditions on various websites.
- Explored department store websites like Macy’s and QVC.
- Checked out The RealReal for pre-owned options but decided against it.
- Researched Fendi’s history and pricing variations.

It was a bit of a rollercoaster, but I’m so glad I stuck with it. Now I’ve got this gorgeous Fendi bag, and let me tell you, it was worth all the effort. This whole experience taught me a lot about being patient and doing your research when you’re after something special. And hey, who doesn’t love a good shopping story?
