Hermes is being sued | Hermes purchase history for Birkin and Kelly bags

Hi there, I'm Eileen. Many of you know my Birkin 25 is my absolute favourite luxury bag. Well it looks like Hermes is being sued in California for coercing their customers to build a purchase history before they can buy a Birkin bag. Here are my thoughts, please share yours xx

To be honest I don’t understand why women love Hermes Birkin. It’s not even that pretty paying so much for a bag that seems to look more appropriate for the office IMO. I used to love Chanel and had several Chanel bags including their sunglasses. I guess I was followed and targeted coz burglars broke into my house and took ALL my luxury bags..etc. Since then, I don’t buy much luxury items. Now I’m in my 40s and I no longer lust for these luxury brands but enjoy just buying things with great quality regardless of the brand. I sold most of my old luxury items and am glad I at least got some of my cash back. 😂

The issue is 'tied selling, ' which is illegal in the US. No seller in the US can say, well, we can't sell you this one item you'd like to purchase until you've bought these four other items you may or may not want. In addition, even if you do buy everything we'd like you to, we may decide NOT to sell you that one item you wanted in the first place. The fact that we all know about the in store purchase history build-up and the 'will they/won't they' consider you worthy enough to wear their admittedly very lovely and well made bags, the Birkin in particular, is evidence of it. It's obvious that's their unstated but heavily implied sales practice. IMHO and under US law, if something is available for sale and I have the money to buy it, assuming there are no other issues, my money is as good as anyone's, that's the law in the US. I can't stand Hermes' sales practices and their frankly snooty attitude regarding their 'quota bags.' It's the primary reason I've never bought anything from Hermes, though I do love their fine jewellery. A lot. 😅
I think it will settle out of court. Hermes doesn't want the US to take any lustre away from their brand.

Your collection is lovely and you’re lucky you built a relationship with a lovely SA. I still miss my original SA who would bring items in for me and convinced me to start buying Hermes’ silver jewellery when it was still similarly priced to Tiffany’s. She’d also help me choose scarves that went with my jewellery and wardrobe and invited me to the Festival de Metiers when it came to town.

im glad someone sued them. it never occurred to me that what they were doing was tied selling. i thought it was legal practices/policies they had. because how can they be doing something illegal in plain site in the US. i was baffled. also shame on me for not realizing what they are doing is illegal.

Some of your jewelry is actually from the Chaine d'Ancre line, not CDC (which is Collier de Chien). Just clarifying in case others wind up being interested in some of your pieces...because they are truly stunning! You have fabulous taste, Eileen - and truly one of the best curated wardrobes I have ever seen. I'm so tired of seeing influencers do haul after haul...only to sell their items right away. You have truly inspired the way that I shop now :).

So happy to see you elated with your birkin. I personally was saving up for one and my kid (high school graduate) wants to pursue a college degree. So back to square one. I guess it's not my time for one.. yet...lol. enjoy your bags! 🎉

Part of me agrees with the lawsuit. The lack of a standard and transparent prespend is not ok. We've all heard of women who have spent 50k in one year and never got offered a bag. Or the sa leaves mid year and the customer has to start from scrarch again. Why dont they just say, you need to buy X amount and it has to be from these departments.

Lets face it, without the Birkin and Kelly, how much sales would Hermes lose ?

I was wondering when this day would come.

A bag is a bag, no one really cares. To be honest in this time and age spending so much time and money trying to get a Hermes quota is bag is not worth it. Plus carrying such a expensive bag is not really viable as you would be constantly worried about being robbed. To be honest, Hermes is just overrated. Brand is just a brand

HEY *preluxs* !! I have been watching you for years and im so proud of where you have made it! I love you so much! Also thanks for making my day.

I have the Coach tabby 18 and wow that bag didn't transfer a bit of color, I even wore it in the rain with my dark denim jacket, keep in mind it was absolutely pouring and I put it on underneath my jacket Got wet, that was over 8 months ago, it's very sturdy and over a year it's still looking great, also the same light yellow color so you can easily match it with anything, even a jacket, when you wear It really pops when worn with dark clothes *condup*

[safemitstifer]

Love bbkbags the way you show it! You really focus on showing off the bag. I don't think any other YouTuber can show off bags in as much detail as you.

I walked to Hermes store in Las Vegas and was able to get a her bag - the SA never asked for my purchase history. But the local Hermes stores that i usually shop at, I have been on a waiting list for a Kelly past 2 years.... so yes there is a ladder you need to climb and a time

[MilkowskiSalach]

I love kislux that on the butterfly bag it says auguri / tanti auguri which means happy birthday

[malous]

Thank you for sharing the hermes jewelry. I have the cdc bracelet and a hermes necklace in rose gold and enjoy them immensely. They bring joy to my day. Elegant and understated imo but I prefer it that way. ❤🥰cheers 🎊

HEY *yutulu*!! I have been watching you for years and im so proud of where you have made it! I love you so much! Also thanks for making my day <3

[Sabrinakara]

Can you please share where your beige flats are from? thank you. Have a nice day

[curveappeal]

I can’t imagine this lawsuit is going to go anywhere, but if it does, I fear what’s going to happen is the price will get much higher to make up for the “purchase history”

[monalotfy]

I think we by being so obsessed with these bags, have let them to be so snooty..It’s a bag at the end…I would like to have one but if not then so what, ,

I bought a LV bag *condup* years ago. I took it to the LV store in my town last week to have it repaired. The store clerk inspected my bag and immediately told me that the bag was of good quality. She pulled a current bag out of inventory and compared the tags and I found zero differences
