Has anyone ever heard of Hermes sending anyone a letter confirming nonauthenticity? Ever? This sounds completely far fetched.

Most folks here are not dropping off non-authentic bags for spa, so this would not be the place stories of those letters would abound. Not to mention the repair TOS specifically state they will send you a certificate that your product is not an auth H product.

The linked thread (Barney's) was quite another show of another level... man, i'm at a loss what to say! I've been waiting and waiting on a perfect Kelly in New York and yesterday, I saw an ad on my browser from Moda Operandi selling Hermes bags from an auction house! I was soooo tempted.... but no.. I'm too scared.... DH will not be happy if we lost money over my obsessions!

Keep the links coming, please! good interesting reading with POPCORN and SODA! : D

Hi
I stumbled upon this thread and found it interesting. I initially signed up to tpf because of my little knowledge and/or interest in bags in the past. Then I got hooked and started to observe this community of support for ones hobby - collecting bags. Plus, a good advice and intel are always useful to me.
Have your suspicions around this particular OP (still don’t know what it stands for lol) been raised because some people out there in the world, buy an authentic bag, then swap with a fake one and send that to the brands’ store for authentication, then have the proof the bag is fake and claim money back from the original seller...so these people end up with an authentic bag for free if money is refunded to them...did I get this right? It’s all very interesting! (And disturbing!)

I totally understand and I'd be a skeptic too. I'm not a longtime member of TPF and I'm an occasional reader. The information on TPF can be overwhelming although great. Any online forum is never good with categorisation or findability and catching up years of comments and backreadig is impossible.

I think I came across loukpeach posts and snide comments after it, some time ago and I was confused what was going on and NOW I KNOW WHY!! *Smh*

But back to the point, nothing is perfect and anywhere in the world, there will be malicious people who want to abuse others. We have to deal and the honest people in this community need to help one another without ostracizing newbies, but also helping dismantle scammers here!!

I personally am dying to build my H collection and I have a million questions as I'm rather new to the H-brand (all I have are scarves and plenty small goods and one bag that I have not used/don't plan to keep) But because the community is tight knit and overwhelming I was afraid to ask. I understand now why! But I still hope the community will continue to engage And be fun for everyone!!

OP, Any update? Also, are you able to answer the further questions asked here? If possible, help the community help you! Understand that skepticism goes both ways and while you are not obliged to reveal anything, posting here you kind of opened yourself to that. It's only fair IMHO.
