Default Hermes Birkin and Kelly Bag FAQ's

It seems to me that the majority of new posters in this forum want information about the Birkin. I have made a list of some helpful threads that answer many of the questions those new to Hermes often ask regarding the Birkin. I know many new people are unfamiliar with the search function so I am hoping we can provide new posters with this link in the initial post and then when they are more comfortable they can search for additional information. I hope this will help and if you can think of any other threads please add them.

Is the Birkin Worth the Money and the wait? Is it obtainable?:
