I can see your dilemma here.
Is this your first Birkin? Because this bag could be a nice add if you already have other Birkins, but I probably wouldn't recommend it as a first Birkin because of the canvas and the stripes (harder to mix and match than a neutral and canvas is more high maintenance than Togo for example).
Would this combination work with your wardrobe? Do you really love the combination? Can you make 35 size work?
You see, don't buy a bag that doesn't work for you even if it's rare.
Two years ago, I was offered the most beautiful Kelly in veau Grizzly with Amazone strap. Which was a rare find too. I truly loved that combination, but I realised I probably would not wear it often because it was high maintenance. On top of that, my SA told me that it would not refurbish well at the spa so at the end I decided to pass on it with a heavy heart. Even though I truly liked the look. Shortly after, I got a Colvert Kelly in Togo which I still love and enjoy.
What I want to say is that you just have to ask yourself if this bag would work for you and if you truly love it or that you rather want another combination.
If you don't love it or if it doesn't really work for you then just pass and wait for another offer. With H., there always will be another one

Good luck with your decision and please let us know what you decide
