Oh yes the HAC is kind of like the old school birkin, it can come in sizes 40 and 50 (maybe 60?), it's huge! I just googled what the abbreviation is for, a REALLY long French phrase "Haut à Courroies." They had a black one next to the brown boots when I visited...absolutely love it!

I hadn't visited since August, so I was so confused when I walked in and just saw a giant wall with pictures of Birkins lol. I actually liked the temporary client space, I always wondered what was over there. Also I too would loooove to work there, everyday wouldn't really be like work!

Ooh ok! Thank you for the explanation of HAC! :) I see why the name is abbreviated. Lol.

When I was there a few days ago I saw the HAC! I believe it was on the bottom shelf. You are right, it's HUGE and beautiful! I think I saw a clip of J Lo going to the gym with that size. It was said it was her gym bag. Lol. I think I would still use a Nike or Addias Duffle Bag personally, even if I was rich. Lol. Just saying :)

Same!! That is like my holy grail bag (that exact color and hardware combo), I would never think of taking it to the gym…I always stay away from large bags with musty odors for this reason lol.

I would use a bag like the HAC for travel or days when I need to carry a lot of stuff with me, never the gym 🤮 Definitely sticking with Adidas or Nike!

Also funny story, my friend saw J Lo in the Hamptons at Equinox this past summer, I’m going to have to ask him if he remembers what bag she was carrying haha. She has so many amazing Birkins, I wonder if she bought any of them at FP?!

Hahaha! Im sure she has SEVERAL SAs that can get her a brand new Birkin in any size. Lol. The only time I can see her going to FP for a Birkin is because it's a rare one, and perhaps FP has it. I was told years back from one of the ladies working at FP that someone flew in to pick up a rare and very expensive Birkin. They didn't tell me who it was so it may not necessarily be someone famous but it was definitely someone rich! Lol

Good morning, I had recently sent four items via photos to be reviewed for quotes by Fashionphile to possibly sell with them. I haven’t received quotes yet. This makes me leary! At least I found this nice forum. Thank you for sharing. You mentioned you had sold approx $20k to them. Did you consign or sell directly to Fashionphile? Have a wonderful day.

This happened to me as well!

It was for a very small item...unfortunately they weren't able to apply the discount when I called yesterday. I did make some purchases today with the Black Friday sale...so the savings from that made it less of a big deal lol.

I'm not sure if they do this as a one time courtesy, since my last order they were able to apply the 10% for that early November sale they had for discounted items (the sale happened the day after I made my purchase). I hope you were able to get the coupon applied!

I hope they give me that 10%! Lol. I bought a grip of stuff from them in the last several weeks! Lol. I have heard as a courtesy they will give you the discount if a sale happens within 24 hrs of your purchase, which will explain why they did it for you in early Nov. Mine is 3 days prior. Uugh. Oh well. :sad: I did find something at Rebag tho and got 20% off. Lol

I got a hold of someone. Same exact situation. They told me they don’t apply discounts retroactive because they only have one of everything and there is not guarantee it won’t sell before the code is published so buyer is always taking the risk of losing out on the item

Ok. Bummer! Well, it is what it is. Lol. FP hasn't responded back to my email yet either. It would be nice to get 10% off so I can go grab something else. Hahaha!

Ahhh that makes sense. I hope you still get the discount, especially being a repeat customer! The Rebag sale is really good this year too, esp. with the extra 5% off being a plus member. Sadly my wish list of items from them all sold before the sale even started….go figure lol
