Please try to stay on topic. I realise because of the complexity of some of the posts members may veer off but in answer do not 'go there'.

For info and questions on US customs please post on the thread below: post https://forum.purseblog.com/threads/us-customs-discussion-airports-importing.905560/

Detaxing (to US from Europe) https://forum.purseblog.com/threads/best-way-to-detax-after-h-in-europe.178302/

or non-US destinations: https://forum.purseblog.com/threads/does-h-store-paris-wants-to-ship.605014/page-3

For questions relating to prices https://forum.purseblog.com/threads/reference-hermes-current-prices.102567/page-357

For traveling with boxes https://forum.purseblog.com/threads...me-hermes-boxes-when-traveling.1044553/page-5



I will leave this reminder as a sticky because tthis is often a thread that new members (or new Hermès lovers) post on - hopefully temporarily.

If you are asking about US-SIDE declaration (once you have landed in the USA), then check this thread:

https://forum.purseblog.com/threads/us-customs-discussion-airports-importing.905560/page-21

Basically, declare that you made the purchase and bring your receipts, their recommendation is DO-NOT-LIE as they seem to be connected (FRA-USA)

Hope it helps!!

Thanks everyone for the input. It's really sad to know that getting a B25 in exotic leather from FSH is very hard/ complicated nowadays.

I don't dare buying from reseller because of how many superfakes there are and I have read that there was a case where the item has been authenticated but turned out to be a fake. if I am gonna spend that much money I want to make sure it is the real deal and I want to get it from Hermes boutique itself

I've purchased both a B and K from moda operandi and christies, at first I was hasitant like you but I talked to the concierge (or what they call them selves ) from the website and they have insured me its real. Once Ive received them I brought them to the Hermes store in NYC to authenticate they concluded that they are real. Now my advise is to make sure you talk to the sales persons from these "resellers" make sure its a legitimate website like moda which is a very famous e-comm so it does have a reputation to protect and auction houses like christies or sothebys, and have a written convo just incase make sure there's a receipt.

Do you have any purchase history at FSH? I think with hermes everything is possible.. Especially once you make a big spending I think bag can magically appear sometimes.. HTH

Guys quick question:

1- I have 2 nationalities, can I apply with both passport appointment online?
2- I cant remember if I read it correctly, if me and DH apply for the online appointment, do we need 2 different cellphone numbers? Or it can be on the same cellphone?

I think the question is if you can double your chances to get an appointment by registering under both passports for dual nationals. I'd also be interested to know.

Would there be any harm in trying or would this be negative if unintended by Hermes?

I know someone who’s is a VIP at FSH and she has a very extensive history with the boutique. After years of being a loyal customer and being bounced around between SA’s ( they kept leaving H ) she was offered a Croc B. It was very complicated and there seemed to be a lot of politics.

Yes, thats exactly my question... If i can double my chances with my dual nationality, I would do pretty much 3 online application (2 of mine and 1 of my DH).

As well, as do I need 3 different cellphone #s or I can use one cellphone# to get notifications for all 3 appointment app.....?
