I’m not sure there’s a ‘right’ answer to this question because the answer is so driven by intangible personal characteristics. If you are generally risk averse you’re not likely to wake up and bank wire a five figure sum to a total stranger on the internet. Even the risk tolerant are unlikely to do this, so now we’re on a sliding scale with varying factors impacting the decision.
I think the best decision is the one that lets you sleep comfortably at night. I’m somewhat risk tolerant but the factors that give me comfort aren’t going to persuade someone who is less so. There absolutely are Hermes-made bags on the secondary market but finding one (at a price you can live with) involves some personal introspection.
