Why You Should Shop Hermes Through Resale

When it comes to investment pieces, Hermes increases its value for years, even when pre-owned. This iconic French house, celebrated for over 150 years, is renowned for its luxury craftsmanship and limited production runs. Part of the allure of Hermes lies in its scarcity and exclusivity—walking into a boutique and buying a Birkin is nearly impossible, but Luxepurseclub offers an accessible way to buy one. This guide will share tips and tricks for shopping Hermes through resale, regardless of your budget.

Tips for Buying Hermes Through Luxepurseclub
Hermes bags are handmade, and the limited production means that only a small fraction makes it to the resale market. The Hermes Birkin is one of the most sought-after accessories to both buy and sell, known for its increasing value on the resale market. Luxepurseclub offers some of the most desirable Hermes bags and accessories to add to your collection. 

Get Familiar with Hermes Styles, Colors, Leather, and Stamps
Hermes is famous for its minimal design, vibrant colors, and ultra-luxurious leather. The Birkin and Kelly are the most recognizable styles, but other popular options include the Constance, Lindy, Picotin, and Evelyne. At Luxepurseclub, our Hermes inventory is like a candy aisle, with a wide variety of sought-after colors like gold, black, and orange. For a deeper dive into Hermes colors, learn about the top 5 Hermes colors, like Hermes beiges, Hermes pinks, Hermes greens, Hermes blues, and Hermes reds. 

Leather is the essence of Hermes. Hermes leather embodies a captivating blend of timeless beauty and exquisite craftsmanship. Each Hermes bag is meticulously crafted through many hours of hands-on labor. Are you looking for a bag to carry constantly? Go for a pebbled leather, like Clemence or Togo. For a more delicate leather, go for Box or Swift. For a truly unique Hermes piece, explore rare exotics. 
Hermes uses stamps to track the material, age, and maker of a particular bag. Date stamps (or blind stamps) note the year of manufacture made by the craftsperson who made the bag, which Hermes started in 1943. Due to its range of ultra-luxury materials used, there are also unique foil stamps throughout their high-value pieces to identify exotic materials and special order bags (indicated by a horseshoe stamp). 

How Much You Can Expect to Spend on Pre-Loved Hermes

From rare Hermes finds to classic pieces, you may be wondering which Hermes is worth the investment. And how much should you expect to pay when shopping resale for Hermes? Like all pre-owned items, price varies based on style, market value, and condition.  

From an investment perspective, certain Hermes styles and colors (whether seasonal or classics) are more desirable and hold more value for longer than others. Hermes colors are sporadically available and rarely released again. The element of “scarcity” adds to the intrigue and resale value.
With our wide selection of Hermes styles sourced from some of the world’s best closets, there are many styles from Hermes at various price points, from accessible (Herbag, Garden Party) to extravagant (Birkin, Kelly).
