Thank you for your appreciation, chkpfbeliever. I have seen them on replica sites and I know of two which both have the same dubious Hermes stamp. I don't believe we can take anything for granted when it comes to fakes.Beautiful case !! Congrats on your find. This is not a B or K so I don't think that you'll see any replicas. The hard part is finding one in a condition that is acceptable.
I'm happy for you.

What a beautiful bag.
As a fellow Briton would you be so kind enough to DM me the eBay seller you used? I am ever so wary of eBay but alas it is the only way to find a KSaD these days.
I'm afraid you will have to go down the preloved route and make sure you get good authentication.
You should also decide which leather and colour you would like, then be prepared to wait.
Be aware that although the most common size is 38, some were made in 34 so you must check.
There are a few on eBay at the moment; the last time I looked on the well-know consignment sites there were none for sale.
I do like box calf very much, but for day to day use in all weathers and not having to worry about catching your finger nails opening and closing something like Epsom might be a better choice.

I saw two Kelly Depeche on sale on vestiare collective a few days ago, but they are not there anymore (usually the ads stay there even after the item is sold)
I really want a Kelly Depeche, but so difficult to get, and I'd rather not buy preowned because fear of authenticity

I don't think you have any other option than pre-owned and use a good authenticator
I first asked for and got authentication on here and subsequently paid with my own photographs
But no-one sensible would not share concerns about authenticity.
It has to be pre-owned HOWEVER there is a part of Hermes offering a special order service, I have seen it mentioned on here (I don't mean SO for Kelly or Birkin) and I did wonder if they would make make one, but I think the premium would be something like three times what the retail cost for a stock item might be.
I looked at VC there are two from the same seller!!!
I searched Hermes Briefcase, you have to try all the permutations of Hermes, Kelly, sac, Depeche, briefcase,
Good luck hunting

The Kelly Depeche is now available via à la carte order or special order (SO) as it's frequently referred to on this forum (refer image below). Price of the bag would be retail price. À la carte orders aren't at a premium price. I however can't advise on the pricing of the bag as I didn't order one.
