They must be overwhelmed by the number of these clients reselling over and over because there are certain ones who keep doing it but keep getting bags. Today I saw one who does it regularly post an epsom c18 in mauve with rgh stamped u purchased 5/22. Sold already within 2 hours: the listing was for double the retail price. Amazing.
Hermes Blacklist?

Yeah but in those scenarios, it wouldn't surprise me if the resellers have extensive networks and they can't necessarily pinpoint it to that specific client. What we don't know or can tell is if they are sending in friends, relatives, or even finding Bobbie Sue waiting in the Chanel line and offering them a few bucks every couple of weeks to purchase some things for them at Hermes, and then re-selling the bags they get through those means too.
Much of this would be alleviated by a global system.
Since much of Europe isn’t in one system you can do this in neighboring countries only a brief train ride away and each store isn’t really the wiser.
The brand protection folks in the groups don’t really have a way to know which 8 or 10 stores the resellers are regularly buying from. Add in networks of buyers working for a reseller and…
I do notice an inordinate number of items for sale seem to originate with members whose names and locations suggest they are from a single small country with only one Hermes store. Makes it kind of obvious that they’re gaming the lack of centralized system…

I suspect many long term clients are the biggest resellers. Who NEEDS quota bags in all colours of the rainbow? Seriously, there are not THAT many nice and useful things that I imagine one would like in a year to buy to score 2 quota bags. For a normal consumer, there definitely would be seasons that one loves everything but there are other seasons that one couldn’t manage to pick out anything. So what do such loyal customers who buys 2 quota bags every year do?! Buy and sell!
This is the habit that Hermes had groomed isn’t it? The preference for loyal customers.

Please don't turn this thread into a beach-fest targeting individuals selling personal belongings. This thread is about Hermes' blacklist
BANNED/BLACKLISTED from Hermes: Purseonfleek - watching with my morning coffee!!!! New video up.
Oh gawd. I just finished the 50ish minutes YouTube video. I dunno what to say.
Didn’t Connor, another Australian, get a similar notice? He’s openly a reseller under the guise of a “consignment” business.
She mentions him (Connor) in the video as having received a letter as well. Not sure if he was banned though.
The funny thing for me is after that hour-long complaint (while forwarding through the majority) against H, she does clarify that she will not stop buying H products and she will still unbox (some) H items on her channel as a service to her watchers.
If I was as upset with H as she is, to an hour-long video, I wouldn't give the brand a cent more than I have. I'd take my business elsewhere.
I think the drama with H helps her channel's popularity.

Purseonfleek has always been buying a lot of luxury items from different brands (Hermes, Chanel etc.) and, after a while, reselling them because they didn’t suit her lifestyle or she didn’t like them anymore. She is not the only one doing this, there are a lot of people in luxury community having this behaviour.
If you make a wrong luxury purchase, I understand that you want to sell it in order to get your money back and get something more suitable for you. Anyway, I really dislike when someone buys a hot item with the only purpose to sell it at premium price and make money. I hope all these “resellers” will banned by fashion brands ASAP.

Also a good defense against defamation claims since she isn't calling for monetary harm to the company. I wouldn't be surprised if Mel is either being counseled or has sought an hour or two of an attorney's time prior to posting this video.
I'm sure there is more here, TBH.
Frankly, I think that she has been an incredibly troublesome client (loosely) in many ways, and Hermes finally decided that her business was no longer wanted.

I follow someone on IG that posts purchases and then a day later has "changed their minds" and then posts for sale. Lots of H, VCA and Cartier. Just waiting for them to be banned. It wouldn't surprise me in the least
