I forgot a vital bit of information. X and S stamps near the "Made in France" Stamp both signify Sale items. typically S will mean public sale but not always the case for bags where either X or S can be stamped. Sometimes you will see numbers near either the X or S stamp when its on bags and thats to signify the employee it was sold to.
Extremely helpful, lots of things I didn't know!! Thanks a lot:)))
Wow!! Thx for the information~ I would never have a clue of those stamps!
Love your super informative Hermes videos 😍 thanks for always keeping us well educated!
U r Welcome!
Such an informative and helpful video! Thank you!
Super helpful tips!! Thanks for sharing!
This is one of the most useful Hermes video I've watched! Thanks for sharing these awesome tips. :)
U are welcome!
Your videos are always so informative and helpful!! Thank you!! I will always always now look out for the bag death cracks!!
Hahahaha
Thanks for all the tips!
I have never bought Hermès pre loved because I have been very lucky with my SA getting me my dream bags. But this is fascinating.
I would never take my bags to Hermes anyway! I have taken my bags when to a specialist who handles designer bags leather goods . Always been satisfied ❤
Great insight. Thanks
Great tips thanks 🙏
I won't be ready to buy for years, but when I do, I'm sure it will be pre-loved and I will definitely be binge re-watching your videos taking notes! So informative and helpful/fun to watch. :-)
I'm so glad they are helpful! Definitely so important to be as informed as possible they are not cheap by any means but such a fantastic investment!
You’re so knowledgeable on Hermès🙌🏻 Thanks for sharing!
You are so welcome!
Excellent info Mel. Thank you so much. Yes more info videos please because you are very knowledgeable! Some of these points I have never heard from anyone else before 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Glad you love the vids! X
Thank you for the video.
I finally took the plunge to get a B35 preloved through a TP reseller. I'm so nervous 😓 and excited aswell and hope to have it with me when I get one in store 🥰
Wow congratulations! Let me know how it goes ! That's very exciting
This is very informative. I learned a lot from your sharing. 😍
Glad it was helpful!
Very interesting 🧐 knowledge Mel. Thanks for sharing 😘
U r Welcome!
Very useful and interesting.
There are pockets on the Fourbis. I have a 25 cm one, and also an organiser from 7RP (which is better since it's made to fit a particular bag).
i find the fourbi pockets very flimsy since it doesnt have structure so its like i couldnt use them at all :/
Thanks!!! 🌷🌷🌷🌷One note though... there is a shooting star that can be for HSS custom ordered bags... along with several other choices of heat stamps.... but i can't remember how many points that star has... i don't think it's like the one for bags made by and for the artisan though.
Very interesting!
The cracks can be prevented by moisturizing the leather. I know hermes is greedy by saying they won't spa any bag that has been treated, by I thinks that's more for painting treatments, or other repairs. If you buy a lesthe moisturizing balm, there is no way they can tell. The leather will just remain in prestine conditions.
Agree with you! Leather conditioner cannot be detected it wears off as well as it's designed to be absorbed by the leather it's not a polish by any means.
I’m still super new to Hermès so this was really helpful!! Also I really like how much the bigger Kellys and birkins hold but I’m a bit worried about the weight 😫
The ones I linked in the description are Gulliver leather which is predecessor for swift and it's super lightweight. Swift/Gulliver are the lightest leathers of all Hermes leathers. My Kelly 25 literally feels like air when empty.
Wowwww good to know my lady. 👍🏼😅 I got a hermes pouch with a “s” stamp from The Real Real. 🖤😘😘😘Sandy
Great video! I know a friend who got her s stamp bag spa'd. however hermes told her that they do not do employee s stamp bags, great video!
Yes! I have read people who have luckily been able to get their staff S stamp bags spa'ed even though they weren't the original owner but I definitely feel it's dependent on your relationship with the store. I think for people who never shop at the store and rock up with a staff sale bag and no proof it was supposed to be sold to them more likely to get declined 🧐.
@@Purseonfleek Good point! I do think it's dependent on the store and one's relationship with the SA. I love your videos very helpful!
I clicked on this right away thank you this is great information and I learned a lot. Do you think that having your bag retouched or spaed lowers the value? If you buy a bag on the pre-loved market do you preferred to have it untouched so you can make the decision whether to send it to the spa or not?
I think it very much depends on the retouch job. If it's been spa'ed but it's now actually made the bag look fantastic almost like a new bag again then that would help with the value than selling it beat up. But if the retouch job looks poorly done etc as though it wasn't done by an experienced craftsperson then that could affect value. Third party repairers can do the same work as Hermes artisans however there are some that obviously may not be as good
Thank you so much for your video. Super informative. Question what about monogram/initials? Should you buy it? Should you initial your bag ever in your opinion? Can they be removed? Can other letters be added? I take it up to a max of 3.
Personally if you decide to initial I feel like better to do the clochette (cover that goes over the keys for a Birkin or Kelly).
Because if in the event U ever need to sell the bag any bag with monogram really decreases the value quite drastically. It's not something I would do, and it's impossible to remove the initials completely as it creates an impression in the leather
@@Purseonfleek thank you so much for answering. I’m looking into a preloved b40 and it currently has my hubby’s initials. Thought it would be cute. Sorry to bother again but how much would you offer for a bag like that. If they wanted 7k USD you’ll offer how much lower/off? I’ve never made offers so idk what’s acceptable or even appropriate. Thank you in advance.
Great tips, saves this for the future! (I don’t own a Hermès bag... yet!). But I own 2 chanel jumbos; which insert would you recommend for chanel? I see that 7rue don’t make inserts for chanel...
Chanel is a quilted leather so any insert that isn't too firm will be fine. There is a store on IG that bought straps from I'll reveal soon as the quality was amazing but they do bag inserts too that could be worth a try for chanel..they are called: innerbagshop
Purseonfleek thank you for the reply! Will check them out💖🎉
I would love your expertise on something. I purchased a preloved Birkin in the Barenia Faubourg leather. It's gorgeous and relatively new--only about a year old. However, the previous owner must have beaten it to death. Corners are a little faded and there is a minor darkened smudge on the front and back. Also, there are a couple of teeny black dots on one of the corners. Do you think the spa can repair those issues on this type of leather? I'm still within the return period, but I hate to part with this one. It's really gorgeous, the price was palatable and the marks I'm describing are really only visible to us crazy bag ladies. I would love your opinion! Thank you so much!!!!
Fading can be fixed definitely they will condition and treat to bring life back to the leather. The marks and smudge however won't be so easily fixed Barenia soaks up oil/stains etc .
Thank you for these tips. But I've also seen a small square stamp under the logo. OD you have any clue what that means?
Was that on an exotic? I'd probably have to see it to give the right answer 😅
Very helpful tips, thank you!! I didn’t know about the rules behind the S stamp! I’ve somehow heard of the shooting star though 🤣
Also do you suppose there is higher demand for the mini Kelly or the Kelly 25? 🤔
(PS. I’m sorry for being a word nazi but indifference means “lack of interest/not caring” and not the way it’s used here. Sorry!)
Yes definitely there is a higher demand right now for mini bags still.
Indifference has 2 meanings the one U said ofc and also mediocrity. It's no wonder English is the hardest language to learn we don't make anything simple😂
You're amazing hopefully you can answer this question I seem to get no replies was there a time that the Hermes had a raised leather With their name
what do you mean by raised leather?
Did I miss the meaning of the horseshoe stamp? Love all this information! Thank you
Horseshoe stamp = special order bag
@@Purseonfleek Thank you. I knew there was a special meaning but couldn't remember what it was!
Hey there. You mentioned 7RP and it got me thinking that I placed an order with them for my Evelyne about a month and a half ago and haven’t heard anything. How long does it normally take for you to receive your inserts from them?
Usually 2months at most. Because it's handmade and very meticulous in detail they can't push out alot in one day they have alot of quality control for each insert. But I would suggest send a DM to their Instagram page 7rueparadis with your order number for a follow up. DM is the fastest method of contact I notice.
Purseonfleek awesome. Thanks. And thanks for replying SO FAST!! 🥰
Hello! What is the spa?
You can give your bag to hermes into their „spa“. It’s a repair- service from hermes. Where the can clean, refresh your bag or change parts of it, that are broken
Am i reading this right... 7RP insert for evelyn tpm is $600? 😱
Yes unfortunately they are not cheap but definitely the best insert for your bag without having to worry bout the leather stretching and getting an ugly buldge over time 😬😬
@@Purseonfleek your so right, it is worth the money to make sure that dosent happen. But it was definitely a shock when i saw the price! I figured it would be like 2-300 lol
Can you still get a bag repaired if you’re blacklisted from buying? I’m genuinely asking not being snooty. Since you said you sent it to leather surgeons, I wasn’t sure if at this time you had that whole issue with them yet and why you’d choose to send it to them versus directly to Hermes since they won’t touch it once it’s been fixed by a third party. Even if to save money, to me it’s not worth it since I feel like “what if it needs a bigger job that only they can do now I’m screwed all because I wanted to go down a more economic route”
Yes per consumer guarantee in australia they are not allowed To refuse repairs . Unless you use a dodgy third party repairer or replace aftermarket hardware chances are Hermes wouldn't know because they aren't tracked by serial number. This is just my opinion
You have the best Hermes info! Thanks always for sharing! I remember you bought from a reseller jael99 before. Are you familiar with femme.authentics at all? I saw they had the same listing once and got curious if they are the related? 🤔 TIA! 🥰🥰🥰
Yes my c18 BE was from femme.authentics I had a great experience with her.
Indonesia/SG resale market often consign same stock because the clients contact multiple consignment stores to put the bag up for consignment
@@Purseonfleek Thanks for replying so quickly! I had a feeling you would know! 😉 I was thinking of adding a preloved b35 but now I’m thinking for the larger bags a K32 or 35 might be better. 🤔 I have my eyes peeled for a good preloved deal. Thanks again!😘😘😘
Off topic a bit but I have a preloved B35. My SA was able to get me a K32, but told me if I saw a B35 in a color and leather I liked to go for it because she was still looking. I’m sure she didn’t mean preloved but it was what I wanted. I got it 7 months or more later. Now the question, it would not be my intent to rub anything in anyone’s nose but I I paid good money, I love her...should I be concerned about taking her shopping with me if I decide to stop by Hermes? I have no intention of lying and it’s no slight meant for her. We only have one store where I live. What do people do if they take a preloved bag into a store? I mean the SA’s can look you up in their system. You can always say you purchased in another country but why? Partially rhetorical question😉
When I first went to store I went with my b30 which was bought Preloved from Japan. Because it was a Birkin ofc she asked where I got it from because I said when I arrived I'm new to shopping at the store and only bought online so far. I told her I got it Preloved from Japan. There was no funny looks she responded with oh yes Japan is very well known for authentic preowned luxury bags.
So it's definitely no problem! U can take Ur bag sometimes they will ask sometimes they don't . Most of my other SAs never asked about the bags they knew I didn't get from their store.
U can’t get service on their employee stamped bags either
👍👍
