Any idea on cost for a 28cm ostrich souple Kelly?

Greentea · Mar 28th, 2006, 04:15 PM

My guess is around $12K...

weibaobai · Mar 29th, 2006, 12:18 PM

How much would a black birkin 40 in gold hardware cost???

Greentea · Mar 29th, 2006, 05:00 PM

Based on the cost of a 35, I'd say mid 7k...

Smoothoprter · Mar 30th, 2006, 12:19 AM

How about Hermes Year Codes? I think that would also be helpful.

duna · Mar 30th, 2006, 02:38 AM

Each year is indicated by a letter of the alphabet: i.e. 2006 is J last year was I, the year before was H and so on. So if if you want to know what year an older bag was made in , you just go backwards with the alphabet. I have a bag that was made in 1997 and has the letter A, the year before that will be Z. Once you get to Z you start again from A.

What I don't know is when Hermes actually started using the Alphabet.

Noriko, you KNOW you will!! I think you should et a Kelly next... :)

Guess that means 2007 is my year...I am a K! Could it possibly be?

Since everyone else has been getting their bags maybe one will be left for me.
