Finally revealed! PURSEONFLEEK on Ebay? Are the rumors true? Purse On Fleek's Hermes drama continues

Mel from ‪@Purseonfleek‬ made a video called: "HERMES MADE ME CRY😢... WHY I AM DONE WITH HERMES | Raw Truthful Store Experience Long Term Customer". Since my first video and thoughts on this topic was published, many of my viewers have been telling me that Mel allegedly had or allegedly still has an Ebay store where she allegedly sells and resells Hermes, CHANEL and other branded as well as non branded goods and my viewers have been asking me my opinions on this topic so today I talk about it in this video. All I say in this video is alleged. I hope you enjoy this video.

"When Hermes runs out of dustbags they know where to find some more" LMFAOOOOO IM DONE 😂😫😂😂😂😫😂

[@Shazdog123]

I’m in UK and we have a delivery company called Hermes. Now, I’ve used them quite a few times without problems, but they do get some bad publicity. When I saw the post about her being done with Hermes who reduced her to tears, all I could think was bloody hell, what did they do with her damn parcel! I felt such a twat when I started to watch her video, but it did give me a good laugh. Worldwide pandemic and people are crying over Hermes bags!! Lmao!

[@rooismum1023]

Sharon, I'm also in the UK and Hermes has never let me down. Your comment gave me a great chuckle. In fact only the other day I got a bag handed to me from one of there employees. So now I'm thinking " do I have a Hermes bag". 🤩

LOL I'm so glad I wasn't the only person. I also thought it was the courier Hermes lol

Hi Sharon! They just lost my parcel last week. LOL

[@garysimcox345]

At first I did feel bad for Mel, but now that I see that eBay store... wow. First, that’s just weird to me. Selling things when you want to clean out your wardrobe is one thing, but selling random samples and holiday cards that were obviously given to her by an SA?! Not to mention the empty packaging from Cartier, LV, etc. that could be later used to sell fakes to unsuspecting buyers. I see why Hermès wants nothing to do with her... it’s just shameful really.

[@anne-marie2972]

How buys empty boxes and ribbons 🤔. Price was horrible. Or dustbags.

[@Master-xg8ke]

Selling Empty packagings like the boxes and dust bags is even a bad thing it’s better than just throwing them in the trash. They have value that some people will pay. I’ve personally bought empty boxes bc I had to throw away the original box that came with my product for space reasons

[@joannat1898]

Actually, I’ve bought empty packaging because I buy regularly from preloved sites/stores and sometimes I want the brand boxes/packaging. It keeps packaging out of the landfill and makes me happy. Buying secondhand is far better for the environment than purchasing new bags anyway. However, I totally agree that selling more personal notes, gifts, etc. is a bit bizarre. (She takes it a bit extreme for sure.)

[@ccella3370]

@@joannat1898 Me too, I buy preloved don’t always get the dustbags and boxes so I’m grateful for eBay sellers like her bc I want a full set!

[@NhatKySinhVien]

There are ppl out there buying it, that's why she selling it. I don't think this is her fault. If no one is buying. She wouldn't invested so much time in taking the photos, uploading them, and writing a good description for them. At the end of the day, those luxury brands are making money from her and she's trying to recover some of lost.

[@shaunaplague]

All the Hermès bags she has bought (most secondhand) & sold PUBLICLY, as far as I’m aware: Rose azalee B25 Rose azalee Constance 24 Rose Jaipur Kelly 25 Gris Mouette Constance 24 Blue Electric Constance 18 Noir Birkin 30 Trench Kelly 28 Ciel Kelly 32 Mini Evelyn Vert Criquet Kelly2Go Barenia roulis Blue pale Picotin (currently for sale) That is a lot. Selling on this level is no longer someone selling bags that do not work for them or colors they don’t love anymore… this is a straight up reseller. She buys bags, uses them for YT and IG content, and then flips them for a profit. She does this with Chanel bags, shoes, and RTW as well.

[@ExperimentalAddict]

Wow. All this over her ebay store?

[@shaunaplague]

@@ExperimentalAddict I'm not sure. I have seen 3 of these bags sold through her ebay store (noir B30, barenia roulis, and blue pale picotin) - the others I am not sure how she sold them, but I wouldn't be surprised if they were sold through her ebay store as well. I have also seen her selling on vestiaire collective and on instagram, so she sells on other platforms too. The only reason I am even aware she bought and sold all of these bags is because she has discussed it openly on her youtube channel and on her instagram.

[@dawnlovescouture2644]

Exactly!!! I commented the same.

[@HandbagDiva]

Exactly, and the reason she got so upset about the Hermes issue is one that’s a big part of her channel & two, the money she can potentially make off of quota bags is pretty hefty.

[@shaunaplague]

@@HandbagDiva Yup. Someone brought up her Hermès video & her eBay store and drop shipping, selling dupes, packaging, etc and she said “maybe you’re just jealous your tears don’t bring you money”. Wowwww….

[@coriolisse]

In one of the lengthy emails she sent to her Hèrmes S.A., Mel mentioned she wanted additional pairs of Oran & Ilana sandals for her friend. I took that to mean that she intended to resell the sandals, and I’m almost certain that’s how the S.A. interpreted it too. I don’t care if Mel’s a seller, but those emails were endlessly elaborate because she felt she needed to cover her tracks, and volunteered way too many details as a result. She ended up sounding desperate/unhinged. Hopefully she’s better at reselling than she is at lying.

[@HandbagDiva]

I interpreted asking for items for her “ friends “ as getting more items to sell under the pretence they were for said friend. I knew nothing about this girl prior to her video but it was clear as day to me. I’m sure her SA caught on as well.

[@ThatGirlJD]

I thought that part was weird, she mentioned this friend more than once. It would have made more sense to try to connect her friend to her SA so she could purchase her own items. An occasional present seems ok but constantly trying to purchase items for your friend isn't normal. If they really were for a friend she definitely was going to get her money back. She speaks openly on her youtube about reselling and purchasing from resellers.

[@vanweezyy]

I don't even care about luxury brands but I got sucked into the tea 😂 great job on this video

[@SuperDacob]

Thank you Jennifer 🥰♥️🌈

[@luzalva4213]

OMG! So that explains the extremely long and detailed "whishlists" she sent over and over again to the SA. Either she was fishing for products to sell or filling preorders! I totally agree on selling items you do not longer need, want, or even if you are in need of cash, but feeding the resale monster is only driving the brands to mark up their products and make them artificially hard to get.

[@imalison]

omg I never even thought about filling pre orders. can you imagine the pressure and getting yourself into this situation? horrible.

[@shaunaplague]

One thing I found suspicious on her wishlists were requests for multiples of the same twillies…

[@Hannah-um2uz]

@@shaunaplague I agree why do you need so many of the same thing

[@whitneybellows3606]

@@shaunaplague The only time this would make sense is if you want multiple of 2, because you want to cover both birkin handles. I imagine her wishlist was just full of neutral and/or pink twillies because they are "easier to sell"

[@brees3]

[@Fashionably_unemployed]

You made a great point when you asked how can someone claim to love and respect a brand and its heritage when they actively hurt its image by reselling packaging and samples.

[@Missfrankiecat]

I never get this take - how does selling packaging and samples hurt the brand image? I bought quite a few perfume samples during lockdown to try the fragrance before buying - at least two I then bought from the brand. It doesn't harm them at all and is no different to the decant merchants who sell small samples from large bottles for the same purpose (and profit).

[@lienecarter6411]

@@Missfrankiecat she does the decanting too. I think that’s worse. Gross

[@andisaints2894]

@@Missfrankiecat i think when you sell boxes and samples, counterfeiters can get hold of it, thus use it for reference in making a perfect copies. Ribbons, boxes, perfumes, lipstick packaging, all of them, usable for counterfeiting

[@HandbagDiva]

@@Missfrankiecat LV CA’s include samples in purchases as a courtesy & with hopes you’ll love a scent or two & purchase. They are also trying to reduce the counterfeit market, resellers who sell boxes, ribbon, cards etc are giving scammers legit packaging to trick buyers into believing they’re buying authentic…..it’s gross.

[@BeautyIsMyLife]

@@HandbagDiva what if an individual wants designer packaging just for their own personal use or decor? If you legit acquire something you have the right to resell it. I can understand Hermes has a right to choose a customer that will love the bag and keep it instead of catering to a reseller; that I fully get.

[@daggnow9407]

First she hounds the SA for all the hot items and then she immediately resells them. It is ridiculous! Then she has the audacity to complain and whine about not getting the bag!!!! I think when the SA jumps through the hoops for a client and then all the items are purchased only to be sold - it is not cool!

[@HandbagDiva]

And bringing her “ friends “ to the store with her to get items supposedly for them🙄

[@nikkitalks4713]

I agree. Besides nobody has addressed the bullying she put the SA through. The SA probably thought they were friends and then realized Mel was just manipulating her so she could resell so the SA stop putting in all the extra work.

[@daggnow9407]

@@Gotchalaboom "cool" is just an expression

[@iversongirl]

I always say, " If you talk long enough, eventually you tell on yourself." Mel told A LOT. I personally don't care too deeply about her seller history. I will say the items were weirdly grouped - authentics, dupes, random makeup palettes, and a peculiar heap of Michael Jackson memorabilia/conspiracy books. Grey market tactics involved? Absolutely! But not much can be done since it's legal to do so. However, she shouldn't have complained on the internet when she knows what she was selling wouldn't be well received if the public got wind. I hate the concept of "the journey" and would never do it myself, but if you play the Hermes game and lose, then that's the game you subjected yourself to. She went in knowing the odds and knowing her habits so... it is what it is.

I have no problem with resellers/personal shoppers (in fact, thank you to some of you who make it easier for us to obtain certain items). But I also have no problem with the brands marketing and their going after resellers. Both sides are simply doing what is in their best interest. I highly doubt Hermes cares if you sell your used Birkin for whatever reason a couple years ago and you're trying to get a new one. They're going after the specific resellers that specifically come into their store and try to buy with the purpose of reselling. Given Mel's selling history, I wouldn't be surprised if they thought she was a serious reseller.

[@SuperDacob]

What you are saying makes a lot of sense Sue Yi. Thank you.

I have heard about her infamous eBay account when I was watching her Goodbye Hermes video, back when comment was not turned off yet. And I have always wondered how bad it was. It IS bad, she is selling everything, things that are gifted and are samples. And it seems that she is also a dropshipper selling dupe items from China. I don't get how someone who speaks so highly about Hermes craftsmanship would also use or sell dupes (a polite word for fake) items such as straps , chain, twilly, etc. If you really have a real appreciation for design and craftsmanship, you wouldn't be able to 'appreciate' dupes. Not only stealing designs is stealing intellectual property, those items were not made by people who are paid fairly. Great insight on the matter, Dacob. Thanks for sharing.

It's not unethical to sell these things on eBay and people have a choice whether or not to buy them. People literally buy used paper grocery bags on eBay! Why? I do not know but if someone wants to buy them, why shouldn't another person sell them?

[@blacknoise]

So, opinion: I don't really care about reselling, even on the large scale, but you do not get to WHINE when the company notices and calls you out for damaging their brand. Your property is your property once purchased, of course, but if your continued access to covetable rarefied merch hinges on you showing loyalty and respect for a brand and that relationship is something you value... common sense says don't do this dumb shit.

I think she handled herself wrong. The email where she said she was depressed could’ve freaked out the SA. What if she committed suicide and that email was the last form of communication she had with anyone? That person is just an SA not therapist and I get why they reported her. I agree the manager should’ve been the one to make the initial contact with her instead of blocking her on Instagram. You can’t expect an Hermès Birkin or Kelly for every baby or important life event you have. That isn’t how this works. I spent 3 times what she spent on Hermès in the last year alone. Mind you I’d been spending like this with them for 5 years not begging for a Birkin or Kelly. I was finally offered one this year. I really don’t think she truly is aware how she’s coming off which is another issue. It also sounds to me like she didn’t have a good relationship with her SA. Mel should have just switched. I’m going to give her some grace because she said she recently had a baby so maybe her hormones are out of wack and she’s going through postpartum depression.

Hermes receipts literally say customers are not allowed to purchase items and resell them commercially. So…

[@SuperDacob]

But is that the case in every country? And is it just a recommendation? Because I am not sure how much legal standing something like this can have in court... I am no legal expert so it would be cool to hear the opinion of a lawyer and in general a lawyer that maybe has specialized in international law... if that is even a thing?

[@shaunaplague]

@@SuperDacob Those are very good points. I am not sure. I have family members that are attorneys, and I can say it is absolutely true that the actual law matters more than the policies of a specific boutique. I personally bought an item from a boutique with a “store credit only” return policy, but that actually isn’t legal - where I live the law states that someone can return any item for a full refund to their original form of payment within 3 days of purchase, especially if something is wrong with the item. So with a lawyer’s help, I was able to bypass the boutique’s policy and get a full refund. However, even if what Hermès is saying isn’t actually legal in some or all countries and wouldn’t stand up in court, they still would be justified (in their minds) to blacklist a customer who is caught reselling items, if that is their policy.

[@SuperDacob]

Good point S. They would probably go about it the way you described it.

[@bryan7938]

From the poor corner, Mulberry UK, they make staff sales and they score the internal leather logo. They are sold on the understanding they are not for resale, the scoring is the indicator, however in law the person has done nothing wrong. I’ve just been through this, humiliated by a Mulberry Facebook group rather than assistance, but the seller did accept the return when I contacted them attaching an email I’d received from Mulberry. Mulberry were not that fussed they just confirmed ‘on the understanding’ not for resale. There didn’t appear to be any legal gateway for me to pursue should they have refused a return. That’s the UK and consumer law. For example people reselling cans of coke from a multi box,

[@theresafeeney2756]

I always assumed that when a consumer buys from a merchant they can do whatever they want with the product they purchased. Sometimes people’s tastes change and they no longer want the item so they should be allowed to resell if they choose to do so.

@@VC. I think Dacob mentioned that staff commissions aren’t high on dream bags but they are on ready to wear etc so human greed = selling her other stuff. Also I cannot help but think telling someone upfront that you don’t want their patronage is kind of uncouth and no brand will likely do that upfront, rather then will subtly just say they cannot give you what you want, but sell you the other stuff that isn’t so intrinsically linked to the brand. Like scarves aren’t the signature for Hermes so it’s safer to sell that

[@RubmaLione]

On one hand, banning someone from shopping at your store because they resell the boxes and dust bags from your products is ridiculous. As he mentioned, Hermes doesn’t have morals, they’re extremely corrupt and actively create a toxic atmosphere that encourages people to engage on a hilarious “journey” to feel “good enough” to be “offered the opportunity” to buy a 15k bag. On the other hand, if you are actually invested in playing that game and you step on their heels by reselling their boxes, holiday cards, and dust bags, you can’t pretend to be shocked or feel betrayed. If this is her store, then she knew exactly what she was risking and did it anyway.

[@TheFuzzyPetiole]

There is a difference between reselling second hand items and being someone who buys direct from the retailer with the full intention of reselling, never giving the regular customer a chance. It’s scummy.

[@HandbagDiva]

It’s not scummy it’s capitalism. Regardless if you’re a reseller or not you’re still only allowed to purchase a certain amount of items. Some houses like LV will turn a blind eye if your CA has a really good relationship with you. Also as a reseller you have to balance purchases you buy to resell with items you keep for yourself.

Great video, this is definitely an interesting topic! Two things came to my mind…#1, if this is Mel’s profile it appears she could be involved in drop shipping besides just the reselling. There is nothing wrong with that per se, but it’s a bit puzzling why someone who “adores” these luxury brands as she stated would sell imitation items. #2 I’m wondering if actual collectors would buy these ribbons, boxes, etc? But it seems to be a great market for counterfeiters to snap those up to make their listings more trustworthy! I personally have no issues with reselling, but on the flip side we have to accept brands don’t appreciate it. I just personally would never feel comfortable selling samples/free items. If I were to sell a bag, the buyer would get the dust bag, box, and anything else I had saved from that purchase.

The retailer will certainly frown upon a customer profiting from the exclusivity of their products.

[@invisiblegirl2320]

I love your take on this, and how you look at all perspectives. I agree that Hermes brings resellers upon themselves with the games they they play. I also agree that Hermes wanted to protect their brand when they saw Mel's eBay store and the things she was selling. If I were Hermes or any other brand and saw the sketchy things she was selling, I wouldn't want to be associated that. Also, the fact that they made a video and whined about her treatment from Hermes and pulled the whole "I have absolutely no idea what I did wrong! This came out of nowhere," makes me wonder what else happened for HR to contact her. She said that they said something along the lines of her being a health and safety hazard. You do not get labeled a health and safety hazard just for pestering an SA for your "dream bag," and reselling their items. Correct me if I'm wrong about that. I'm sure something else happened. I wonder if the manager did try to contact her himself about the situation, but then she did or said something that needed to be taken to HR. Though as you pointed out, we have no way of knowing for sure because all we know is what Mel has told us. Those are just my thoughts.

[@shaunaplague]

I think the health and safety hazard aspect might have been because she said she was getting very depressed at not being offered a “dream bag”. That could make Hermès worry they might be liable, if she then hurt herself or did something to herself or someone else…due to depression caused by their brand, sales associate, and store policies. When you mention depression to a sales associate, in WRITING, it could make a brand very nervous and want to protect themselves against any possible liability.

[@dawnlovescouture2644]

Is no one mentioning that she posed for Instagram in the same Zara dress she is selling NWT on eBay??? That’s shady to me. So she bought the dress to model it and then sell it. It’s the same as buying the bag, making a video, and then returning it. I don’t card if someone resells things, but it’s one thing if it’s something you no longer use vs buying it from the boutique and immediately reselling the item at a huge markup. As for the dupes, again, it’s one thing to buy a dupe for yourself, but another to be a volume seller of said dupes when you are a KZbinr. Just my 2 cents.

[@shaunaplague]

I agree 100% with both of your points. I noticed also that one of her latest pictures on instagram, of a Chanel RTW piece with some pretty buttons, is being resold on her ebay store. I don't think she ever wore that piece, so she bought it just to resell (or it didn't fit her, in which case it's understandable to rehome). However, using it for IG content while you have it listed for sale is super shady and sketchy. I also agree about the difference between buying a dupe for yourself or even selling a dupe, vs being a volume seller of dupes. Big difference.

[@Missfrankiecat]

To be fair, she was pretty open in some of the videos about her "Hermes Journey" that she resells her bags - to me it was one of the paradoxes of her complaints that she wasn't being offered her bags of choice, when we have seen her given bags which she then sold within months. I don't see that she's making a profit on those re-sales (the fake items are a different matter). I think it's more about her feeding her KZbin channel by endless purchases she can't afford without re-selling. Frankly, a lot of other KZbinrs, who are plainly gifted items by luxury brands (Dior as an example) also have selling outlets if one pokes around the internet and sell the gifted items. Its all about generating views for the KZbinrs and publicity for the brands.

- Very strange to sell so much packaging? Definitely (but please let’s consider that there are people that collect everything and ones garbage can be others treasure). - Will this make every targeted brand angry?

(She informed in advance when she was visiting the store). It would have stopped the alleged pressure on the SA. Getting HR to call the customer is not at the level of the House and definitely not the conventional thing to do.

There are 3 types of people. 1) the ones who want to separate themselves from their elders 2) Fake love their elders for incentives 3) people who genuinely love their elders and appreciate them as is.

Then the ones who really appreciate the craftsmanship, lineage, history, and are keepers of Granny's bags (group 3). Hermes seek out clients in group 3 who highly value their bags and treat them as a respectable person would their elders and honor their inheritance.

I unsubscribed after a long time because she is completely oblivious to her inappropriate behaviour. One would think she would assume at least part of the responsibility, especially regarding the cringe-worthy emails, but no. She wanted people to turn against Hermès, while still expecting to be offered a bag (she didn't rule out working with the store again).

A year later, she is selling her "dream" craie Kelly for over $2k profit.

I think you can be a difficult customer or resell your own items but I don't think you can do both. There was no upside in this for Hermes.

[@mrs_jm]

I’ve been loving your series on Hermes. Very interesting to hear all the different opinions/thoughts on the dreaded “journey” and the Purse on Fleek situation (I hadn’t heard of her before all this drama). Also, the cat story 😂😂😂😂.

[@VforVanity10]

"Hermes is pooping out their Birkins and Kellys!" 🤣🤣🤣 Spot on! You know what, Hermes is wanting to play a game? Now make yourself ready for the customers to play it, including tactical intimate oversharing, as Mel did 😈. They got what they called for.

Oh man. Things are getting juicy

[@rouquindunord8420]

The lady gets what she deserves. Dacob, wouldn't you start an eBay shop selling some self-respect and common sense? Greatings from Belgium.

[@giedrebey5444]

Dacob , you are so hilarious. That story about the cat, is priceless🙌😝 Aha so i was wrong, She is not sick desperate lady. She is very calculated. Wow if she sells all boxes and dust bags, she will be able to buy a bag😝Well maybe not Hermes, but some cheaper bag. Anyways now she created this drama video and monetizing, gaining views, subscribers, but it backfired, Now, thanks to Dacob, we are all in your business ,Mel 🤣. And now she might be blocked not just by Hermes. Now again, is it right for you to sell , your own things? Sure it is. But the brands can also do what they want, Corporations dont care, so its up to you. Play their game, or move on, Its not marketing, its mind control . Its done scientifically. Its so much is about to be revealed. …. The things that we thought is just marketing, banking , or laws, its so much scam, and it will be revealed….. The world will never be the same 😳Have a blessed day 🙏💕

🙄🙄🙄

[@bonnie2964]

Purseonfleek is absolutely ill in the head. She’s selling the ribbon they tie Hermes boxes for profit. Is it just me or is she behaving like she doesn’t actually have the money to afford these things? She is giving me maxed out credit card vibes🥲

[@bluemargarita83]

Same here! Seems like she’s too desperate!

[@mitchthebagboss8698]

she is literally selling the PR items she gets

[@mycc8894]

Fantastic detective work Dacob. The eBay store that sells that weird array of items doesn't scream trustworthy lux reseller to me. She trying to make that coin.. When I buy Chanel it's because I love it not for resale value and yes we can fall out of love with an item it happens. She knows what she doing.

[@TheLisbonBlogger]

Why the hell a person buy an empty dust bag?? Just for the logo!!!! This is ridiculous. How far this society has come. So sad!

[@aaronxalapa]

to counterfitters, they buy the bags and boxes to sell or to duplicate them... imagine you sell a counterfit bag with the original packaging...

[@AuthorLHollingsworth]

That young lady can resell any bag that she wants, but my issue is when these resellers sell those bags for two to three times the amount. Im okay with getting your money's worth, but don't over charge.🤷 Each of the fashion houses have increased their prices, and the brands only want our money, and not our opinion. Give me vintage any day over today's current bags. Nice video!

[@bimblaq]

disgraceful. She claims she appreciates the brand blah blah she’s a pro reseller. I can’t believe she even had the nerve to complain. Of course Hermes customers care, she’s taking away chances from customers who want bags for themselves. Not to mention boxes & bags could be used to scam someone

[@mixedrapunzels9969]

"...weaker characters get sucked in by marketing ploys. Weaker characters become victim to it and become desperate and delusional...and neurotic..."

[@QuantumKitty]

Supply and demand due to a false scarcity made by these corporations and marketing. You hit the nail on the head. This is programming the masses to want what they can’t have in turn making resellers. Amazing perspective most other people in this community don’t have. I couldn’t have said it any better myself. These corporations prey on our insecurities on our mental health on our ego. People go into debt and lose a lot to taste the dream these corporations are selling. If I buy something from you it’s not ur business what I do with it! Excellent analysis. You called her out tho but the commentary is awesome!

[@suelashomb2922]

I don’t understand why reselling a Birkin or Kelly is any different then reselling ANYTHING ELSE!!!!! Both Hermès and Mel can do what they want. But Hermès and that store manager should have been honest to why they did not want to sell Mel a Birkin. Period!

[@aminatee2330]

This confirms my theory. She just wants attention.
