It's up on evilbay, and a new blue CW is coming my way today!
Ya, I was holding onto Battery Park because it was the so-called "special edition" - then they reissued it, so it was really no longer "special." Really bad merchandising.
I have not read all 14 pages, so apologies if this repeats advice already given.
Personally I do not have a problem with large collections.
If you feel the need to slim down: without looking at the others take out all the scarves you have used over the past year; use these as you working collection.
Those which remain unused could be the basis of those you wish to rehome.
Leave them unlooked at for a few months. Then look at them and make a decision if you can.

Ahh - not evil!!! Haha. Rather, bless the bay that allows to declutter - otherwise, we would overflow with the amount of stuff we have!!!
It was a trick to make people buy - with expectations of scarcity and fear of missing out. And then bummmm - reissue followed…
I think blue would suit you very well! Congratulations!
I dont believe any scarves have been SE now. They all have been issued as part of the season or produced in a limited colour for a specific charity or event. When was the last itme a unique design just for a special edition was made?
I would keep cave felem (lucky you !!) and the second one. Rehome the others
Hey now, I just bought a 1972 Olympics scarf that's never been re-issued!I dont believe any scarves have been SE now. They all have been issued as part of the season or produced in a limited colour for a specific charity or event. When was the last itme a unique design just for a special edition was made?
I think if they make a special edition and it's popular, they re-issue as a standard scarf. If it's not (like my 1974 Amazones parfum scarf) then the design dies with the SE. Which is practical from a business standpoint, but maybe disappointing as a collector.
Interesting. Thanks! I have actually worn everything in the past year because of a rotation scheme I forced myself to use. LOL.
And the problem with not looking at scarves - when I start taking pictures to list, I fall back in love with the scarf. I'm hopeless! But I like your attitude of not having a problem with large collections!
I was happy to support the Battery Park Conservancy with the purchase, and I love NY, but they lied to us. https://coolhunting.com/design/hermes-the-battery-conservancy/
"while supplies last" LOL

Hermès’ Limited Edition “The Battery New York” Scarf
A decade ago Hermès opened the doors to a retail location on Broad Street in lower Manhattan initiating a commercial return to a neighborhood in recovery. Only steps away, the Battery—a 25-acre par…
Well - perhaps we shouldn't take at face value everything we read
)) At least you can turn around and sell on whatever Bay it is (LOL) and perhaps recoup your investment!
