Default Japan (H)appiness!
And so I'm coming to the end of my Japan holiday - from Tokyo straight to Kyoto for a night, from Kyoto to Osaka for 2 nights, and then back to Tokyo for 5 nights...now, with 2 days more to go...I'm more or less done with my shopping, and I can spot an orange box or two (no surprises there!)...

Really happy and just prepping myself up for the reveal(s) in 3 days' time once I get back home!

Special thanks to kipp and other fellow tpfers who so nicely and patiently helped with my long questions on H shopping in Japan!

Just checking in at Hermes Osaka, and Hermes Ginza, as well as Hermes Isetan Tokyo this week alone, I've seen more birkins and kellys (from etoupe 28 kelly, 32 kelly and 35 birkin, to croc kelly pochettes and croc 30 birkins) than I have, to date in the last 2-3 years!

I absolutely LOVE the land of the rising sun!!

Dreamdoll:Glad to hear that you had a great trip in Japan.Did you say that you only stayed 1 night in Kyoto? Were you able to see all the fantastic palaces? It's such a divine place!!! My only trip to Japan was to see Kyoto.DH went to Japan a few times for business though. Japan is so interesting and different from everything else.I can't wait to see your reveals! Do post your pics of Japan too.

Hi Dreamdoll,

Do you mind telling me how much a 35 birkin and 32 kelly costs in Japan? I have made an order for birkin in Shanghai China. I am now comparing the price between Hong Kong, Japan and China to see which place has the cheapest price. Many thanks !

shopgirl bb - a kelly 32 costs about 800,000jpy and a birkin 35 costs about 1,000,000jpy, HTH!

kipp - Thanks!! I'm having a great time!! And yes, my head's still spinning from all the H!! :)

Glad you had a wonderful time in Japan dreamdoll!! We absolutely love Japan too...the people, hot springs, sashimi and especially Hermes shopping!!! Japan has been our yearly destination for the last 8 years and I got my first birkin from Hermes Ginza!

Can't wait to hear more about your Hermes experience and see your lovely purchases.
