I saw that specific bag in person and while I think there are probably other threads in Shopping to discuss price, it is absolutely lovely, so congratulations!I won this bag at a reputable auction house but I'm new to Hermes and have no clue if it's value.

I'm not sure if this bag is "great" or just "ok". Forgive me for being clueless. My husband bought me a Birkin 35 for my birthday in 2012, but I never carry it. I thought I may carry a Kelly because it can be worn crossbody and it's smaller. I just saw this one and bought it, but do not know a thing about it! Hoping some Hermes experts may have some insight!
I did compare prices for this bag and paid a reasonable price for it. I guess my question is:
Is this bag anything special or is it a typical Kelly?
For example, my husband shops at Hermes all the time. He bought a "Candy series" Birkin for my bday. I wanted to return it and get black, but the SA's said I was crazy because the one he bought was very special. I kept it. I, seriously, am clueless!
I hate to say this, because you're probably not going to like my answer, but I have to be blunt: I think those SAs didn't do you any favors, because they basically talked you into keeping a bag you never use. The candy Kellys and Birkins were limited edition, but whether or not they were worth a certain price, or worth buying at all, depends entirely on the individual customer. I was never tempted to buy one because they are made out of Epsom, a leather I personally don't care for. For others, though, they were very special and worth every penny!
Rouge H in Chamonix is less common than, say, black Togo. But how "special" it is, and what it's worth, is something you have to decide for yourself. Sorry there is no magic bullet answer here.
