Hi Friends
I recently bought a Black box Kelly and it came without the shoulder strap, clochette lock and keys- I would like to buy them but don't see them much on EBay .. Is there any other avenues I can explore? And what would it be pricier to buy from Hermes???
Any help or advise is appreciated...

Can I order them at Hermes? But then the Kelly is from a reseller and not brand new!!! Can anyone advise me what to do?? I am carrying my Kelly as is and love her..:) but would love to complete the look with the lock, key ....

The price is not that high. The cost of straps at Hermes is quite steep.

Yes I just saw this on EBay - am seriously considering it :) can I get the clochette lock and keys from the Boutique? Do I have to order it? I did see some on EBay a few weeks ago .. But it had ended :( these do not come by often... Thank you ladies -

Have you tried doing a search? I just pulled up at least five threads with this information. It's been discussed frequently in various threads.

I did search before when you suggested it to me in the authenticate thread but could not find anything!!! Hence I started this thread.... Can you post me a link to those searches? Maybe I can find some info on resellers who might have these?
Thank you :)

If you search the general forum using the words strap replacement clochette and the like, there are a lot of threads that turn up about people's experiences.

You can purchase on Ebay or through a reseller, or try to get these items from Hermes directly. For the lock/clochette, you need to bring in the bag. My understanding is that the lock and keys cost in the vicinity of $300 or so. Cost of a strap depends on the leather; I recently paid 461 euro for one in chevre and 441 for one in swift; the orders took two years to arrive. Others have had lesser wait times. If the colour/leather is discontinued or not as common, it may take longer or may not be possible for Hermes to make.

Hope this helps.

I was in your shoes when I bought my BBK.

When you see a strap, clochette, etc. in the reseller market, buy it. Straps are really hard to come by at the store. If you are near Madison Ave, LA or FSH you may have more luck.

Congrats on your Kelly. Even without a strap, it's a stunning bag.
