Being that my Birkin will be my gift to myself when I graduate with my Phd in a few years, seeing the exact one I want made me feel extra motivated to achieve my dream of getting my masters and Phd. I can't wait till I open my own orange box!!!!

it will be very meaningful:)

bagpunk, To me I'd rather have the bag. It's more functional than a piece of bling. :)

Sunfire, What a wonderful graduation present for yourself. :)

bagpunk · Aug 5th, 2009, 08:28 PM

well, does not look like i am going to have that HAC after all

seller backed away. this is the trouble when you enter a negotiation without mucho casho....

all you have is good will...

yup, there are many things in life worth looking forward too, and of course, H will be one of them eventually

Kelly_Birkin · Aug 6th, 2009, 06:49 AM

bagpunk, I'm sorry to hear that. You WILL have your dream H bag someday. Don't give up. :)

Does anyone know the price range?! I couldn't find from people that bougth here on tpf! It'll be good to know how long do i have to save to buy my dream bag... i'm 24, i'll probably be able to buy for my 30th bday!!!

Me too. I always knew I wanted a red Kelly someday (thought my first would be orange though, lol). However when I saw the Rouge H, I couldn't resist. She requested she came home with me!

Well, I hope the H store in Calgary would open in time but it could get pushed back.

I really like Rouge H and they had a pair of Rouge H gloves that was on sale in Vancouver for CDN$150. I thought it was a good price but unfortunately, I couldn't go there and they didn't send me a picture of it so I didn't get it. The only Rouge H I have is this pair of shoes from Kenneth Cole, and it's not even from H.

ernskie, I think you rock rouge H color! As does Pug Shoes!

Manuela garcia, there are threads I think in reference re current prices -- I unfortunately don;t know them off the top of my head. Good luck! If you do a search in Finds thread or ebay, you will also come up with reseller prices. If you find something on ebay, be sure to run it by the authenticators on authenticate this bag thread -- they have a format posted on the first page on how to do it. . .

Ernskie · Aug 6th, 2009, 05:23 PM

Thanks 880! I love Rouge H especially on Box. I wouldn't mind getting an agenda in that colour and leather especially a zippered one.

I just noticed that even my stapler at work is Rouge H.

Kelly_Birkin · Aug 6th, 2009, 06:26 PM

Ernie, Cool shoes, even if they aren't Hermes. :)
Sometimes we all need treat ourselves every now and again.

Ernskie · Aug 6th, 2009, 11:44 PM

Thanks Kelly Birkin! My colleagues and friends like them. They call it my bowling shoes. I would love to buy some more H treats. Sigh... if only I won the lottery.
