Hermès Is Bound To Ruin Itself…

[@deplerkim3959]

Remember that you are the customer. The seller is supposed to jump through hoops to get your money, not the other way around. This is not a luxury experience. It's an anti-luxury experience. Take your money elsewhere.

[@kristinestocker]

I don't stand in line outside a store to shop, and I have zero interest in sweet talking salesgirls into allowing me the privilege of spending my money. Can I afford a Birken? Yes. Would I lower myself and play this manipulative game to get one? No.

[@DemureDarlings]

👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽💯

[@neffyg35]

agreed. remember the first and right now only time i got to do a private shopping trip. now thats luxury! everything you wanted pulled based on your measurements for you try on in a private room. the lady could tell i'm really awkward with small talk and just spoke when needed and i'm so grateful for that. She offered drinks and was really friendly but not in please buy everything kind of way. I ended up only getting a dress and blouse but now i can't go back to regular shopping lol. now I just order online and have picked up what i dont want to be sent back. waiting in line especially if its outside to spend thousands on something thats not even the thing you wanted just sounds like scam

Seeing there are SO many Hermes (literally in all colours) in Japan preloved shops and indeed everywhere worldwide, why would anyone still get themselves humiliated, degraded to please a sales person in Hermes by buying loads of unwanted stuff to get the same bag? I have Hermes bags, to me, they are just bags I like, but no different to other bags I have. I just buy pretty much unworn conditions from preloved. However, I won’t buy anymore, there are so many good leather brands that are fractions of the price, completely handmade with finest leather. The sales associates from those shops actually respect and care about me as a customer. Apart from that, Hermes BKC are not rare anymore, so many people want to get rid of theirs, and no takers. So not an investment if you buy new one now.

[@neffyg35]

anything preloved from japan is damn near in brand new condition with a decent discount because even the slightest imperfection is a big discount

[@luluesparza7360]

I think a lot of preloved bags are bags that the purchaser didn’t really want, but that’s what was offered.

FACTS

[@perspectiveofme]

Wow that's soo true!

[@CadyVirina]

I actually don't understand all the hype around the Hermes Birkin bag. It looks tediously annoying to open or close right off the bat. Tbh I'm not a fan how the bag looks either. Lol

[@SusanSaysSomething]

and has no shoulder strap

[@shinnam]

My thoughts exactly, pain to open.I was in Indonesia last year. There were many many superfakes of the Birken.

[@FitChickGlows]

That’s why they keep them open. Lol!

[@tygressblade]

I literally have been following brands that started as saddleries. They know their leather and they aren’t crazy expensive.

[@h.b.p1197]

It’s just a bag. You have to really care about what people think about you to wear a bag like that.

[@donnabennett5454]

There's nothing about a Birkin bag that makes it so coveted.

[@mothra__13]

Artificial exclusivity. That's what their sales model is.

[@SusanSaysSomething]

It's not luxurious; it's exploitive.

[@XxMsrSzprzxX]

As long as enough people participate in this weird system, it'll continue.

[@PlugInKali]

Why would anyone go through this ordeal when it's incredibly easy to get a Kelly or a Birkin second-hand?

[@esml373]

Because Hermes is way more expensive second hand. That's why they call them investment bags, they have insane resale value and only grow in value.

[@kalinnaslay]

It's ridiculous the hoops and hurdles they make people go through, from buying unnecessary dishes, scarves, pillows, throws, and fine jewelry; just so an SA deems you worthy enough to offer selling you a bag? I'm a firm believer that if you have the money to afford something at a store you should not have a hard time during a purchase. Stuff like this is the reason why I'd prefer to obtain the item preloved, and if its too expensive via that route, there's nothing wrong with donning an inspired dupe (not to be confused with a superfake). Also, right about now Strathberry, Aspinal of London, Demellier, and Delveaux are looking very good from where I'm standing 😊

[@aniapalus9530]

Yes, also sorry but who SA is? Is it a highly educated, intelligent person who received an order for something? No. So in real life the SA outside the story the SA is at mercy of the customers.

[@4gma59]

I cannot believe women actually fall for this kind of marketing. But they do...

[@dashiajames1882]

I can't either it's like some women are literally brainwashed. And feel they absolutely need those bags.

[@mashondaknight9132]

I like hermes but its too much of unnecessary hoops you have to go through just to buy a bag Ends another thing when I saw Cardi B and Floyd. Mayweather's daughter argued about hermes bags. That was a turn off and another one called NBA young boy burnt up hermes bag because he wanted to stick to his ex girlfriend I was done and it was a turn off.

[@SheilaRose-s7x]

There are too many dupe alternatives out there to put up with their overpriced bags. I would also never put up with the Hermes games and snobbery.

[@carrino15]

I think it is hilarious to know that the gardener who got adopted got 7 billion... makes one think twice about where the hard earned money 💰 goes to..

[@dashiajames1882]

Good afternoon: What's so special about those bags..?? They only a " Status Symbol " at the end of the day. They literally remind me of one of a Michaels Kor bags. They not that different. I literally just saw a Mia K Farrow which was so similar. I'm surprised they aren't consider luxury anymore. Such new news 🙂🙂..!! Ppl make it see as if those bags are straight gold or something.

[@shaneilellis9832]

I think it's hoemes policy is stupid.

[@nandiaconstantinou8181]

Honestly I don’t want an Hermes bag unless Hermes begs me to buy it. I don’t like Birkins at all and it’s not convenient for me to carry a Kelly by its handle. I prefer to buy Chanel or other luxury brand bags even if they are overpriced. Playing hard to get does not work with me Hermes. The fact that there are people who accept this psychological manipulation because they think that a bag will make them more important, makes me sad.

[@faithfindsfashion3998]

I am the exception, but I walked into Hermes on three different occasions, the first with no buying history at all, and I received the exact quota bag I requested. I had no obvious luxury items on . the first was Capris, and the other two were the flagship store in Paris. Never jumped through any hoops, never would.

[@aniapalus9530]

Right attitude? :)

[@elleteo]

This is why she’s saying the process is inconsistent and not transparent ..

[@hayaglamazonluxe]

What bag did you get offered in Capri and what year was it ?

[@perspectiveofme]

That's great! I'm really happy that you didn't have to go through any trouble

[@rlkinnard]

Hermes still makes excellent products that are way too expensive and which they dole out only to customers who have played the game with them. But they do make superior products unlike many other luxury brands.

[@MarchionessDarby62]

Resale market, hands down, that is, if you really want a Birkin. Heck with their system. (And thanks for featuring my comment!)

[@rlkinnard]

why bother with a Birkin? Have something made bespoke that is as good and cheaper.

[@MarchionessDarby62]

@@rlkinnard If that's what you want, sure. But if you're set on a Birkin, resale is way better.

[@reutgadmish1835]

I think that we can talk all we want, and yes, the Hermes "game" is not fair, but we have to admit it's genius. I personally have made a wishlist myself, however, I only buy pieces that I like when I feel like it and if the offer of the bag will come, it will be amazing. It is important to set low expectations, especially if you made that wishlist in a boutique that is not super central like NYC or London, so they receive low stock. If you don't want to play the "game" just don't buy from them, simple as that, no one is forcing you to go and buy anything, it's the brand's decision on how they want to sell their items and so far, it's working amazingly well for them. Another option is you can save the money of the pre-spend and buy the bag you want in the color and size that you want on the pre-loved market.

[@perspectiveofme]

I do agree that it's genius. It works greatly for them

[@bobfg3130]

Time to send these brands a message.

[@animalrescuer80]

The truth.....I think both Birkin and Kelly are ugly which I have a couples but yet I just spent $40000 for new Birkin. It's a hype and games Hermes make people chase after them

These tactics are horrible and should be forbidden as this is BS … especially as these bags stopped being interesting as there is so many of them on re selling market that it is ridiculous… and not to mention several people that currently own multiple bags and never use them …. BS

[@ilmaestro6582]

Well, I mean, look at the stock price. Doesn’t look like Hermes is really ruining something…

[@aniapalus9530]

With all respect it sounds funny that SA decides so much. They feel in power. In any other job they wouldn't have that. When you who decides you buy or not the bag I'm like. An "honor" would be a president, prime minister or someone way lessen who is in position. Not SALESwoman with what achievements and credentials? Customers probably have more.

[@meganmueller]

I love that process.

Instead of spending all this money on a bag I might not get, I would rather pay someone to make me a bag that I want instead.

[@esml373]

You guys don't understand that the game and exclusivity is what makes Hermes so successful. Barely any advertisement, no endless list of brand ambassadors like other brands, only a few selection of bags. People basically do free advertisement for the brand by treating the event of successfully getting a bag after toiling for so long as a celebration. I personally wouldn't put myself through it but it has worked so well for so long and it's not going to stop. With brands like Chanel, Dior losing their exclusivity and luster via social media, excessive branding and loss of quality, Hermes is only going to get bigger as people convince themselves that owning a Birkin/Kelly makes them superior to those carrying Chanels. You don't seem to understand marketing at all.

[@leonardopedro3404]

I do believe the problem with hermes now, is that everyone and a pair of boots, wants a bag, but they don't love hermes, and this brand it was always being based on love for the product, if you go to hermes whitout loving it just for the bag they will know and of course, you will get pushed around, and of course the bag is not avialable for everyone, being that an quota bag is a very meticullus handcrafted bag that takes hours to made. Being a hermes costumer I can walk into to my boutique and be very well serviced. Maybe the reflection should be about the consumerism sociaty that just want a quota bag and nothing else from the brand, because that's the problem

[@lucindamarrs6812]

In a French retail store the customer is not king. When you enter you are a guest. Do not handle the merchandise, greet the salesperson FIRST, learn to ask in French politely. Even is Monoprix learn to say Bonjour before any requests and then apologize for interrupting. There are rules. You don’t have to follow them but you’ll have to put up with the consequences. And dress properly, not in gym clothes when you go clothes shopping. Athletic clothes are for actual athletic activities.

How much commission is the average sales person making by selling this bags. Is the % similar to car sales person or realtor? I’m just wondering. I have no money to buy this bags and even if I will have the money I wouldn’t buy it based on the fact that they are so popular and predictable. You need little more creativity when you are planning your wardrobe as an ultra rich person.

If you think Hermes is mean or rude, you are not rich enough to be their customer. Rich people’s “fun” is different from regular joes. They like this manipulative game and that’s why Hermes is doing it. In my opinion this is Hermes’ strategy to weed out unwanted customers.
