I assume you’re talking about the Nata B25 SO person? If so, it’s just kind of funny because in her video, she starts to remove the stickers from the hardware and is all “it’s safe to remove these stickers. It’s not like im gonna resell this bag. Harharhar” (paraphrased)
aahhhhhh i see. im assuming the FP listing doesnt have have hardware stickers either.I assume you’re talking about the Nata B25 SO person?

Did anyone notice some of the influencers who attended the Hermès events posted with their “Ad” disclosures? Example: “On my wishlist” is their caption in the stories; the stories have “Werbung/Ad” which is “Advertisement/Ad”
I'm starting to wonder if FP just puts their stickers on the bags. Ive seen multiple listing that said wear on hardware but they all have stickers on ?
Spoken like a lawyer. Lol. And I don't mean that disrespectfully. I'm an attorney.
This is correct. No stickers on the listed bag.
(Assuming this is her bag listed) +1 to @acrowcounted and it's funny to me that out of allllllll the bags she has in her collection (idk how many but she has a great collection) she chooses to get rid of the single bag that she designed custom to herself, supposedly just because...meanwhile she posts travel vlogs, bag unboxings, and "hauls" lols
Of course she can do whatever she wants but at the same time it's like 
Idk why she thinks that telling people how many pairs of Orans she has, is going to help her situation.
Anyways, more importantly, people need to stop bullying her over it - it's never okay to tell someone the things she's allegedly being told in response to the birkin slayer.
Yikes...I think a major misconception is that these micro influencers are financially stable. Many tend to fake it til they make it , or live above their means to provide content. Say they are making 100K a year (which is a lot for the national average) but they're also spending $120K to keep up appearances.This is correct. No stickers on the listed bag.

Take whatever these influencers say or post with a ton of salt. They are carefully curating a lifestyle/image that the audience fantasizes about.
Look at them as entertainers and actors playing a part.
Awww thank you! Such a compliment! Legal dramas are my favourite TV shows and I guess I learned something

Yeap, I think you nailed it. She also just had a wedding in Italy and immediate did a "closet cleanup" (aka reselling) afterwards.
I remember reading an article years ago of how influencers fake that they are sponsored when they aren’t (Googling lead me to some articles from 2018 like this one). “Fake it till you make it” is absolutely real.
Sure, I agree that the misconception exists...I don't share the misconception, to be clear with you.
(Again, I'm assuming she did sell her bag - she hasn't said anything about selling it.) What I'm interested in is merely an observation that she has probably 30-ish bags in her collection and the one that she was given a special opportunity to customize for herself couldn't last 2 years in her collection when she's had plenty of other bags that will have lasted longer. I'm not really interested in what's happening BTS with her financial situation, but even if it was about gathering finances for future content, there are plenty of other bags she could sell at a steep price - still, she chose to sell her SO.
Anyways, not meant to be a big deal...point is that it would just be a bit surprising and interesting if she did really sell it because special orders are generally thought of as...well...special.
That’s typically the hallmark of these micro influencers - having closet cleanouts on instastories, YouTube or on FB right after they went on a big shopping binge.
I’m assuming she did as well because at the end of her latest video she tries on all of her Hermes Bags at the end.. no so in sight. I’m just wondering what it was about it that made her sell.. The size? The shape? InterestingSure, I agree that the misconception exists...I don't share the misconception, to be clear with you.
