Any Tokyo TPF'ers want to meet up with me for a little H browsing when I'm in town at the end of July? (Although I doubt there will be any acutal purchasing on my part, since I keep hearing how high the prices are there :wtf:) I'm coming the week of July 29th and DH will be at work during the day, so I think I'm free the whole week :yes:. I'd love to check out some resale shops, too...

It's good and there are definitely some amazing things about it, but I have to say that sometimes I miss my Blackberry :wtf:

So now that I'm officially an addict, when are we going bracelet shopping :p?

Wish I can join you abbyroad. But I don't go back till November. Was just there a few months ago...

Good luck! Make sure you check out Shibuya, Ginza and Nishi Azabu areas for resale stores where you can drool over their display...

I do live in Tokyo, but I have to check with DH as to when we are leaving for our summer vacation. PM me and let me know your dates.

BTW, tokyo is actually not as expensive as you think. The yen is cheap these days and lots of H items such as discontinued cadenas are selling at 1/2 to 2/3 of ebay sites.

Do save some $$$ and shop you heart out.:yes:

you're welcome. BTW, last time I was at the Mitsukoshi Store in Nihonbashi, where they have a Hermes boutique... they had three kellys and two birkins -- you might try calling them.
Good Luck!

Thanks, cookies. I'll try to make it there to have a look. I don't really have any plans to for a big purchase while I'm there but I'd like to see what they have anyway...

i've only seen ostrich and lizard brikins on the shelves actually in the H stores in Tokyo. But yes, resellers have lots of crocs though, in all the yummy colours. Good luck! Oh one point to note, because uts an exotic, think you will need the CITES cert to get your tax refund, which takes 10 days. I didnt manage to stay long enough so i didnt get a tax refund for my ostrich =(

I was in Ginza and Shinjuku Isetan H stores last week, but I didn't see any croc birkin. I think you best bet are resellers in Tokyo. Lots of croc birkins as Lumine has pointed out. If you need more help, pm me with what you're looking for. I will ask my trusted resellers to see if they have any and what the prices would be.

I was at the Marunouchi H store (the Tokyo version of *nothing on the shelf* San Francisco store) and didn't see any croc Birkin.

More likely to see a Ostrich Birkin...
