I would like to see better pics of the zipper, blindstamp and the name plate. Doesn't look bad or could be a good fake. Need those pics!

^^ Pertaining to this Gold Birkin ... I am uneasy about the photo showing the interior of the bag. Reg flag. And one particular photo looks like it's not part of the same set of pictures taken. I hazard a guess it was stolen. Seller is also unknown. With eBay these days, pass. Not unless the seller is willing to provide better quality pictures all around.

Appropos of Mrs. S's comments I looked again at the pics as posted. TIA w/ Mrs. S!

Think it is wise to stay away when there is the chance of big questions. Not worth the aggravation.

You don't have to give up. There's very good sellers there and we rave about them again and again and again. Just ask some of them to help you find your grail bag.

I am pretty sure that these are not the seller's own pics.

Hi there,
Fairly new to Hermes and would like to know what you think about this one:

Looks good so far; I would ask for a close-up of the engraved metal, a clear close-up of the blindstamp, a side view of the metal guides for the straps, and a better one of the interior showing the end of the zipper. I don't know the seller but I like the listing. Succinct, informative, and willing to provide more info.
