Thanks, I actually bought one from a reseller last week as I came to the same conclusion as you…Seriously, if you are local in Paris (or anywhere) but not interested in purchasing other boutique merchandise, I think resale, some of which is well priced, is absolutely the best way to go. Resale prices are going down, and there is a ton of selection. Unfortunately, bc of social media, it seems getting bags from the boutique will only get harder.
The Evelyn TPM is actually one of the more popular bags bc it is well priced for an Hermes bag; small; light; and cross body. I picked two up at resale bc my local SA couldn’t seem to get any that I wanted within the time frame I preferred. I am glad you were able to get the one you wanted. No reason to be sadcongrats on your new bag
ETA: I’ve had best experiences with FSH, but my FSH and another SA at sevres (the latter of which I did not shop with and who offered to transfer a yoga sweater to FSH) have told me that it’s important to the Paris boutiques to stick to one of them if you would like to build any kind of relationship

AliceinParis has a video on YouTube that speaks highly of Fauvette. It’s one of a few brands she talks about in the video.Hello! I’m looking for any feedback on the indie Parisian brand Fauvette Paris. Can you comment on the leather quality, craftsmanship, etc? I have my eye on a specific bag atm but it’s sold out so if you have any information on how often they restock as well, that would be helpful.

Cartier Ballon Bleu owners- wear and tear?
I’ve had mine for 6 years. I’ve worn it stacked with my JUC or my VCA bracelets. The scratches are visible up close but really not something that deter from the look of the watch.

Are you willing to pay more with your SA when preloved would save you money?

“My” last SA retired 22 years ago. 
Since then, between boutique turnover, and the fact I’m a sporadic shopper, I get someone new almost every time I go to buy something.
So my personal equation factors 1) how much am I saving by buying preowned, 2) how inconvenient is it to buy, and 3) how much work has the SA who assisted me done?
If the SA has actually been helpful - answering questions, texting or emailing additional pictures, ordering in from another store - I’m buying from that person. I don’t care how easy it is to get and how much money I could be saving. On the other side, if the SA is actively rude, I avoid the brand for at least a decade.
But it’s rare for me to get notable service. Usually, it’s reluctant smiles if I can get anyone’s attention at all.
Usually, I’ll look at things in the boutique, and then do preowned as long as the savings is at least 20% off retail
