Hermès Scarf Identification

[Miss Pugsley]

Seton, thank you so much for the helpful response, I also visited your website and some of the research links on your list - great information!

[LeMonde]

I posted my previous reply without realizing this is a brand new thread (got here by search LOL) - love it, thanks seton

Question - where should we post questions about authenticity e.g. auctions on ebay?
Here or on the general 'Authenticate This Hermes' thread?
It may get confusing very soon and we'll see more double posts in both so I thought we should establish this now Personally I like seton's original approach and wouldn't ask authenticity questions here.

seton, what do you think?

Hi LeMonde, I appreciate your response! When I click on the link, for some reason it shows "no results"? i also tried a tpf search, under the 6308080, but all i find are my posts and the replies, nothing previous. Thanks for being so understanding about navigation, yes it is a little confusing at first!

Thank you Seton! I was never really interested in scarves before now, but it's hard to deny the gravitational pull, no??

I personally would not go over $80-100 for this one but it's up to you. My info on the design can be found here http://hermesology.wordpress.com/200...x-libris-1946/ It's referred to by the words on the bottom right - La Reale. This is reissued about every 5 yrs or so by H.

helloooooooooooooow seton! i hope this isn't OT, but do you know how i can register on the luxury scarves forum? i have tried for days and the link doesn't work. i thought that for scarf seller and auth. questions i wouldn't post on the purse auth thread here. OR do you want this new sticky to serve that purpose? sorry if i haven't read enough to know if these questions of mine have been already answered.

Regarding Authenticity questions in this thread:

You may post your authenticity questions HERE as long as you don't cross-post the same question in the "Authenticate This" thread.

If you want to discuss a seller only, post in the "Discuss Resale seller" thread.

Opportunities has a white one

I recommend both sellers

[Brennamom]

Oh thank you both! You've made me a very happy pumpkin! Off to shake that money tree

[CobaltBlu]

good luck!!! I always thought I would get that for fall if i lived somewhere where there actually was fall.......

[Brennamom]

Too true, CB, we don't really get seasons, but I still wouldn't trade Turkey Day in shorts and t-shirts! That said, I am powerless to deny the Pumpkin! I took at look at the scarf library and found the other gorgeous colorways (red, blue). As I said originally, I'M SUNK! Thanks for the link!!

hi! i believe this is authentic and from a good seller. my question is about its rarity/value. it's the most beautiful scarf to me and i would love to buy it -- just checking with the experts, if it's a smart value at $400? I realize the answers are somewhat subjective, so I'd just like your opinions please. tia

I personally would pass. It's not especially popular on eBay and could be gotten for less.

Also, there has been lots of discussion about this seller on TPF. Did you do a search? She is also referred by the intials "TPRB" here
