Just for fun, imagine this: WALLMART BUYS HERMES
The bags, quality, leather, colors, place of production, staff, prices :NOTHING changes EXCEPT the bags are stamped Wallmart instead of Hermes. Would you still buy their products?
a lot of people either visit this subforum as outsiders or like you, even ruminate as an insider, on the appeal of hermes and seek to test the H fans' "honest" interest in hermes. i don't understand that.
run, rose, run! you opened up a can of worms with the walmart thing. i've never shopped in one either, and i knew the point you were making and that it wasn't about "ethical" vs. non-ethical companies or anything. lol
we've never demanded the # of male v. female craftsmen from hermes. lol
. Would you still buy their products?
No. I shamelessly pay for the name as much as the luxury of the product.
Just having a bit of fun......not testing anyone, honestly!!! I was not even aware of Wallmarts 'unethical practices' (and perhaps should have used another store) , don't shop there myself..... having a slow evening, hubby's gone to London, having a glass of wine, dreaming up 'stupid' questions......
