These two photos show the fraying I described. And the bag has been authenticated by bababebi so unless she made a mistake (which I highly doubt), is this considered normal for a new or like new H bag?

I would say it is normal, my Halzan actually has a really messy stamp and some imperfect stitches (when new, and purchased new).

I have been wondering about the best place to resell scarves also. I have some I just haven't used and it seems pointless to keep them even if I will sell for less than retail. I just have no idea where to consign them and I don't want to manage listings on my own.

I have a reseller I've bought from but never sold to. If you're interested, DM me and I can pass along her website. (Not an endorsement, though, because I have never consigned with her).

Hi everyone, as I mentioned a few posts up I recently purchased a Halzan 25 from FASHIONPHILE, which was listed as New condition. The bag overall does look new, but I’ve noticed some mild fraying on some of the stitches especially the strap. The fraying is very very mild so you won’t be able to see unless you inspect up close under sunlight (I couldn’t even take a clear photo to show), but since I’m a newbie and this is my first H but pre-owned (though listed as brand new condition), I wonder if this is normal? It’s like some of the threads don’t have much wax on them? Or is FASHIONPHILE not being accurate or honest about their listing? I just don’t know what a “new” condition Hermes bag is supposed to look like regarding the threads…

I have a Jypsiere which is 100% authentic and that has a few slightly fraying stitches and even a broken stitch at the back it doesn't worry me and at some point when I get the bag spa'd I'll get the stitch fixed to be honest I think the fraying depends on what the strap was rubbing against when the bag was worn and i think its more noticeable on white stitching than dark (my bag is gold)
I wouldn't worry about it.

Thanks, FASHIONPHILE listed the bag as brand new, that’s why I thought if it’s new and unworn then it wasn’t rubbing against anything just yet. So it sounds like perhaps this is normal for even brand new bags. I do have thread conditioning wax so I’ll try some and see if it helps. I don’t doubt its authenticity at all especially since bababebi has already authenticated it; I just wanted to make sure FASHIONPHILE wasn’t dishonest about its condition rating.

Hi H sisters, I’m decided to offload one of my earlier B’s (to make space for new B/Ks). Any advice on options? I was thinking of one of the more “famous” reseller but I’m a little worried of people damaging the bag because of consignment.

What about Julia Rose Boston? I have not worked with her directly, but have heard from people that she is very legit and sells things quickly and fairly. (Obviously, do your homework as I am not vouching for anyone on-line)

Where are you located? This will allow better advice. Can you use a reseller who does not have a physical store so that your bags are not handled by customers prior to purchasing.

Has anyone used the ig reseller hermes_originalbag? I just want to see reviews good and bad to see if they are a reputable seller and can be trusted bc they only do WU and bank transfer. I'm a little suspicious that they used to do Paypal, but stopped including paypal as a payment method in September but they claim that they don't use it now because Russia can't use PP because of Ukraine, which is true but doesn't explain why they stopped including it in their posts in Sept. They also price stuff 20-25% above hermes retail for quota bags which is kinda weird, when asked why they said "and what price should there be?, we usually earn no more than 20-25% of the transaction, thanks to this we have a lot of sales"

Has anyone also used capngrab.com or theleatheriva.com?
What're some of your reputable IG resellers you have bought from, trust, or seen good reviews for?
