Is there a price difference on the TPM's with the different colored straps vs the ones with matching straps?
Same price! There is a $75 upcharge for Maurice leather vs. Clemence.
Thank you so much! That explains it! I got the Maurice leather. I assumed the price difference was the strap. Is there a big difference between Maurice and Clemence?
Maurice is a new Hermes leather, very similar to Clemence. Congratulations on your new bag!

I cannot thank you enough for all the information! I am pretty new to Hermes. Thank you, I am so excited to add a TPM!
Hi everyone. Long time lurker, first time poster. I am new to Hermes. My first purchase was this year at my local consignment boutique just before the pandemic shut everything down. I'd come in to look at a Chanel shoulder bag but fell in love with a Bolide 31 that had just come in. Last week I went to my local H boutique to look at Double Sens and Garden Party and ended up picking up an Evelyne GM in bleu nuit instead. I am hoping for advice regarding an insert/organizer. Do you all recommend using one? If so, which one? Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
I only knew about Evelynes in the larger sizes and wasn’t interested in them, and then my SA showed me a TPM while I was in the store for other items. It really struck a chord with me and I purchased it. I’ve used it a lot and I’m wondering how hard these are to come by. Since my SA offered it to me out of the blue without me asking and larger Evies seem plentiful, I was thinking they were easy. But reading here, I’m thinking they might be difficult. What is your experience with getting Evie TPMs?
They are very popular. They post them on the US website often, but they are gone in less than a minute.
Look on the website several times a day and make sure you are logged in with your payment info so that you can purchase quickly. If you take time to think about if you want that color or not, it will be gone, so have color choices figured out.
Thank you! I'll be sure to be ready. But what about just buying them through one's SA? Would a store ever have a selection of colors to choose from, or are they rare to get through the stores?
Depends on the boutique. Mine seems to have plenty in neutral colors but I prefer tpms in pop colors so I always hunt for them online.
