Honestly, I don’t see them getting enviable bag offers very often. Usually the absolute best they get are the hard to sell exotics or LE sucker bags (like the In and Out line).
I do agree that it can be frustrating when these pseudo-H-employees buy up all the stock of a new season shoes/RTW/ jewelry pieces that a real client actually wants and the whole thing makes H look bad. So embarrassing for everyone. It’s like MLM sales at this point. We should start calling the resellers “Hermes Huns” and “Boss Babes” :lol:

WHAT WOULD IT TAKE FOR MY DW TO CALL ME HER "HERMES HUNK"! For anyone interested, let me know your Oran sizes and sushi plate orders for 50% off retail!!!

I have a vintage Birkin 35 in very good condition and was told it wasn’t worth much (less than 5K) because it’s courvechel leather. Rebag also refused online because they aren’t buying this style. It’s disappointing. Can anyone explain?

If you haven't already, make sure the pictures you submit are very clear and against a white background (if they asked you to submit photos).

In addition to the previous comment, it's worth considering that not as many people are buying from FP, Rebag, etc. right now for a multitude of reasons (e.g. the economy in the US and increase in travel). Also, they may have enough B35s that haven't been sold yet, even if you don't see them on the website.

My recommendations are to 1.) Wait and try again in a month, 2.) Try FP because they give higher quotes usually, 3.) If you want more info, contact support and they can tell you the reason they didn't accept your bag.

Hello everyone :smile:

I want to know your thoughts on my dilemma. I would love to get my first Hermes bag this year, and am happy to go the pre-loved route to get what I want. The bags that are currently on my wish list are below (I have also provided this wish list to my SA):

- Picotin18, Orange GHW
- K32, Box Sellier, GHW

If you were me, which bag would you purchase first? Would love to know all your thoughts, thank you!

You might have to buy the picotin first before you get offered the Kelly. But who knows. I got lucky an appointment opened up for me last year while in Paris and my first ever Hermes is a Kelly.

Smaller sizes are more on trend these days so size 35 sells for less. Nonetheless, if the condition is actually very good, it should be worth at least $7,000-8,000 as a private seller, depending on color and hardware. Third party resellers will give you less because they have to make money too and selling yourself comes with some risk.

Has anyone see. The Harness for Birkin? Anyone asked the SA whether it is sold separately from the Birkin? If yes, anyone knows how much it costs? I am so in love View attachment 5732780

It was literally previewed yesterday on the runway. No one is going to have this info (price at least) for weeks/months and it will be months before it hits stores. We should see more pictures of it during press photos this week but deeper info is going to take some time. Just for fun though, since H bag straps tend to be in the $1,000-3,000 range and are much simpler, I’m going to go out on a limb and predict this Birkin harness will cost upwards of $4,500, if they are sold separately.

Stuck between a Hermes mens wallet and a Goyard.

I love the look of the Hermes, but I feel like it holds less while being the same size as the Goyard. The Hermes holds 4 cards and no cash. The Goyard holds 6 cards and cash.

I know this sounds obvious but one is Hermes and leather, and the other isn't.

That would be choice made right there, but of course I'm biased and I don't own any Goyard. Fix your priorities, and then choose your wallet.

Very close! The price for the harness about two years ago was projected at USD $5500 according to a conversation with my SA yesterday. One can imagine it will be slightly more if it does make it to the stores this year.

Hello! I'm starting my H journey and I'm considering a B35 as my first purchase. I'm going the pre-loved route and have two bags to consider. Which would you recommend?
Bag A: 2020 B35 Noir Evergrain w/GHW
Bag B: 2022 B35 Etoupe Togo w/PHW

Both are in excellent condition. I need help deciding on my first B35.:confused1: Thank you! :flowers:
