ARCHIVE 6-01-13 Authenticate this Hermes **BAG**

[bababebi]

Dear bababebi , I know u recently looked quite a few RT items, but could I trouble you have a look at this ? Seller seems has really good feedback, but that UV birkin made me feel a tad uncomfortable. Checked feedback . It shows same UV bag being sold a while ago, is that mean seller has another one or the previous one being return? ( u can discard this question if it is off topic )

Your opinion is much appreciated, and have a great weekend

No, it is an excellent question to ask the seller to explain.

My problem with this RT is that the pictures are not good enough. So I cannot form a confident opinion. I have said the same things about previous Hermes bags of the seller also. Sorry.

Thanks, Bababebi! I might skip that this time, I do want have a purely peaceful mind for such amount I would spend, it is meaningless to take risk. Sorry for wasting your time -

This seller has had eight eBay id's in 18 months.

I have said that Kelly and Birkin bags being sold under at least two of those id's were not authentic. One of those id's was keepthepink.

I have also given a positive authentication on a Garden Party the seller sold. It is still my opinion that the Garden Party and the other Garden Party bags they sold look authentic based on the posted pictures.

My feeling in this kind of situation is that it is too uncertain, and I am not in favor of proceeding with this bag.

I also note the seller is asking for wire transfer for the amount over $1500. I am not in favor of wire transfers except in special circumstance with a well known and clearly reputable seller with long and impeccable history.

Wow, thank you bababebi! What would we do without you?? I read the feedback and saw that our docride had purchased from the seller too, so it made me feel more confident. Cannot thank you enough!

Dear Authenticators
Item : Orange box Birkin 35

I just bought this Birkin from a reseller (or consigner)I know through a friend - she has bought a Chanel and a Louis Vuitton Alma from her before - name: Ann Vojek

History: She acquired this Birkin recently. It is used bag. I was in touch with her a few days ago and she was awaiting the Birkin to arrive
I have bought the Birkin - with a 7 day return policy
Leather is just great, condition is good and she assured me a spa will make it pristine.
I am running these pictures by you to rest assured
Hope this is the one for me ...

Hi; if you read the first post, we ask that people ask for authentication prior to purchasing. There are paid services available to help you.

Thanks for your understanding.

Thanks for the help!

I am sorry Mistikat - please forgive
I have always followed rules as posted but I had no time as -if I did not buy it , my friend would have bought it- though I do have a 7 day return gaurantee . I am a loyal TPFer and always ask before a purchase as you can see from my posts and I have been eagerly anticipating this purchase and had also started a thread to help decide a Birkin.

Please do contribute more in other threads besides authentication threads, it would be appreciated. Authenticators prefer to help those who have broader interests.

I have recently investigated this bag and the seller carefully. They also began to sell on eBay under a different name.

I believe that the pictures shown here are of different bags. Some of the pictures show parts of a clearly authentic bag, but I do not believe that they were taken by the seller.

Avoid.

Thank you Bababebi!

Comments if any: TIA! Also, this might be off topic but where can I post a question about what a good price is for a pre-loved Birkin?

 

[connieluo]

Your pictures are far too dark, I cant see anything in most of them. I can however see something in one of the better lit pictures which causes me to recommend that you do not purchase the bag.

dear, i've took more pics for your review
