I dropped off a birkin for spa in mid-feb and was given an ETA mid May, my store shut down in march and only just opened for curb side. No word yet on when the bag is coming back to me

I forgot to respond to the second part of OP. Years ago, when I brought my Vintage kelly in, actually, I think I brought two in (one BBK and one Porc), my SA and not Claude, but the gentleman who worked with him, were very nice. It in no way impacted my rrelationship with the SA or the assistant manager (whom we knew from a prior different luxury retail store), and it did not affect my Subsequent purchase of a birkin from Hermes. I already had an established relationship with the store and the SA before bringing the vintage bags in.

Hello ladies and gentlemen
I have bought a 2005 hac 32 with the old style hardware, with the square turn key , I was wondering if Hermes would still spa this bag should it need it ? It's in pink chevre

i have the same bag with year stamp squre K！ yeah they will spa it if it is original condition.
Please note, I have added to the title of this thread to reflect its status as the master thread for spa questions, comments and reports.
Oh that is good news thank you , how do you find the hac compared to the regular birkin?
the handle is short. I usually just grab it rather than hanging on the crook of my arm. the capacity is the same with B35. it losses its shape easier than a birkin because its height.
Just to be clear, most H boutiques will repair any bag of any age. I was offered hardware replacement on my 1952 Kelly (the hardware was in fine condition but it was the old brass style). I have never had a bag turned down. The most likely reason to get turned down is simply that your bag does not need it.
I actually prefer it , I think it looks quite ladylike, I'm now on a hunt for another one
That's good news then , I just panicked incase they would not have the square turn key , but now I know at least they will spa
what a great video. Loved watching it. I'm shocked that she decided to completely refurbish. Honestly, I would have sold for what I could and tried to buy a new.
I would look into Winnie Y on YouTube. She has a before and after spa video for a epsom b30 I believe. It’s a very detailed video. It challenges people’s perception that epsom doesn’t spa well.Hi! Has anyone had Epsom leather cleaned? Esp. on a Birkin?
Thank you
Thank you! I know her videos, but I was hoping for some experience on lighter colours
