I want to tell you that your comment hit home. I have wanted a birkin for 15 long hard years. I try hard on my search, then give up and take time to recoup and then try hard again.
I am really determined and I am going full force now. Your support (and that of the ladies on the forum) gives me the drive to continue. Imagine 15 long years? Talk about frustrations and desires for a treasured handbag. But it is my dream bag!

Hi, and welcome! It's so cool that you have connections! :)

What is Hermes' and your opinion regarding people who buy Birkins and Kellys and then resell them on eBay for thousands more than retail, with no intention of keeping the bag?

Disclaimer: not naming any names here, it's a question that I've been wondering about for some time.

I'm really hoping that the Birkin finds you soon. You deserve it so much

Well, what can I say? You are someone who deserves it. What would you like exactly. If you want I order one for you! 15 years is way too long to wait. Why did not you put your name on a wait-list? 15 years??? You could have received even crocodile.

A Birkin 30 in Potiron is amoung my top three choices. Gorgeous.

[Kellybag]

La Van you know I adore you. Thank you.

If you see an old lady bent over 10 years from now on a street walking that will be me...finally with Birkin on arm...can barely hold it, but will finally have one!

[Greentea]

That's me, too KB! One day we WILL get our bags!

Hermes is totally AGAINST people who either buy bag to re-sell them on eBay or for a Japanese market but after all what can they do. That is why there is a strict policy in Hermes Paris to sell ONE Birkin a year to a regular client NOT MORE! And that is ridiculous. Take a look at createurs*de*luxe on eBay, she has more bags in stock than a main Hermes store in Paris. I know she is banned from buying at Hermes US but she pays people who buy for her. hermes should do something that will bring results to stop re-sale.

Kellybag's 15-year wait has developed this wish list. Please help her:

potiron/bicolor/vermillion/rouge vif/black/raisin, 35cm, palladium

Unless the preferences have changed Kelly?

The only way I see to help her is to fly her in to Europe and I promise her to get her a Birkin. Not a croco, but something classic for sure and cannot pronnounce for the hardware. Otherwise if the store ships to the States the problem will be settled, your 15 years wait will be over.

Thanks BBA.

Kelly - if you fly to Europe you can get your Birkin. Then, after the VAT refund, that would cover the cost of the plane ticket.

I am not pretending to be Hermes guru, not all but for the years I have established contacts with this brand that could be called intimate so I know almost everything from whithin. How it works. So if you have any questions on anything concerning Hermes - I would be happy to reply. Do not hesitate with questions or probably any help needed - I will try to do my best and if I cannot reply right away you will definitely get the answer within 24 hours (just time to have a breakfast with my Hermes pals). So...

Hello, welcome! I would like to get a tan JPG bag. What is the best way to do this? Thank you!

[Kellybag]

BBA, you have touched my heart and I cannot even begin to tell you. You are very busy now on these threads, maybe we can speak when you have more time through a pm. Thank you so very much.

You should probably place an order. Shoulder Birkins are easier and easier to get.
