Considering Hermes resale value, I’m always surprised that their repair feels relatively affordable (especially if one sold it in resale market) This is definitely a bag to hold onto forever. Congrats Alyssa! As always, great editing as well
This is not only a good review of the Hermès spa, but also a reminder not to underestimate preloved items. This is the true beauty of the resale market, finding hidden gems that become lifelong pieces in your collection. Bravo !
Congratulations on this wonderful find, Alyssa. This Kelly is a true diamond in the rough and it takes quite an eye to spot its hidden potential. The artisans at the Hermés Spa really did a topnotch job in “resurrecting” this beauty and at such a reasonable cost. A definite win-win for everyone, most especially for you as you get to add another notable piece to your already enviable collection. Cheers and Merry Christmas!!!
Love the breakdown of the whole process and for sharing prices! It’s such a rare find and so happy that she’s been restored and can be loved for many more years to come!
She’e gorgeous and worth every $ spent. You were meant to be her new mom and I bet she’s happy you found her. She could be an heirloom for your future daughter or daughter-in-law. Girl, you literally have a piece of 1986 with you!
Alyssa. Time really flies! I remember when you received this bag and sent it off. Craftsmanship can not be beat. It looks fabulous! Wear in great health.
Looks beautiful! Do however notice some dry spots on the flap panel (wondering if it will start to peel later on as the integrity has already been compromised)
I had sent my Louis Vuitton Pochette Accessories sent off to a place in Florida. I missed it dearly but it was only gone for a few months but I was sooo glad to get it back and now it’s like new. Definitely worth it in the long run.
Thanks for sharing the pricing breakdown. What’s interesting is the plating and front straps were so cheap. Obviously we know the bag prices are inflated but makes me wonder the true cost of an Hermes bag when it comes down to it.
This is such a more useful bag than the mini Kelly. It is beautiful. Good deal 👍🏾 I bought a vintage Delvaux Tempête and I'm going to look into their spa service too 😊
such a gorgeous bag you'll have forever! even after the repairs, it was probably less than purchasing one in newer condition. random question, but where is your sweater from...love it!
VERY informative video! Thank you for sharing your process! I was wondering, if you don’t have a bag purchase history would Hermes give any issues bringing in a bag like this for the spa? I know LV sometimes gives people a hard time bc of issues regarding authenticity without a purchase history. Please let us know!
Q?-what did they ask/say to you when you asked for it to be repaired? im always scared they will say no if i say i bought it pre loved. or do you even mention that? or did they even ask?. did you walk in and say, i would like my bag submitted for spa or repair?
I would feel the same! I think I would have said it was my mum’s or aunt’s. 😅 I took one Trapeze bag for repair for a friend to a Celine boutique that she bought pre-loved and they didn’t asked me anything apart from whether I already had an account with Celine. Great After-sale experience too.
I wonder if therealreal only extended the return policy bc of your influencer status. I swear every time I see a poor condition bag, they always say final sale.
That could be it, but I think it depends on the brand (unless your experience with TRR also involved Hermes bags, then sure it's probably has to do with her being a frequent customer). If it is other than Hermes, then I think it's fair not to give that special return policy. I can't name any other brands that would accept bags that are secondhand/ not bought from their boutique for repairs. Heck, sometimes even with proof of purchase some brands still refuse to honor it.
I have the same bag and sent it to hermes spa. It literally only took 1 month! I got the quotation and a phone call saying my bag was ready to pick up loll
What a detailed and informative video! I also have a Kelly bag purchased from Fashionphile, which was in a "fair condition." I'm also interested in using the Hermes Spa services to repair/clean this bag. I was wondering: Did Hermes authenticate your bag in-store before accepting it for repair? While I trust Fashionphile to sell authentic items, I've heard that Hermes will/may accept bags for repair only to have it deemed "non-authentic" and not returned back... Thanks for your help!
Rediculous. I ll never u derstand the purse glam. It's matériels are worth 50$. My friend runs the high end bag store in West Palm. And giggle w ea women in the store.

So well said!
Obsessed w this bag! It looks great after spa!
Thank you!

A symphony of elegance and grace! Thank you for beautifully capturing the essence of amzrepo in this extraordinary video.
Hi Alyssa the bag turned out so beautifully probably one of my faves in your collection congratulations.💚💚💚💚
Thank you!!
Hi Alyssa, did Hermes give you a dust bag and box after they repaired and returned the bag back to you?
I have to say this truly inspired me to find my own vintage Hermès gem!
Gorgeous 🤍 thanks for sharing your experience on repairing a vintage bag with Hermes. I’m so glad they were able to bring her back to life!
Wow you took the risk and it certainly paid off. Such a beautiful bag 😍
wow they did an amazing job and I love how they will refurbish their vintage bags
Been waiting for this video!! 🖤
A beautiful find Alyssa! Thank you for sharing the process of getting your bag repaired.
She’e gorgeous and worth every $ spent. You were meant to be her new mom and I bet she’s happy you found her. She could be an heirloom for your future daughter or daughter-in-law. Girl, you literally have a piece of 1986 with you!
You're such a gem, Alyssa Thank you for talking the time to make such genuine content🥰
Such great inspiration to purchase a vintage Hermes bag & avoid the tedious “Hermes journey” to buy a quota bag. Great video as alway! ❤ beautiful bag
It’s such a cool bag! That strap length is so chic! I wish Hermes still made this. I’m glad you got it refurbished!
Alyssa. Time really flies! I remember when you received this bag and sent it off. Craftsmanship can not be beat. It looks fabulous! Wear in great health.
Looks beautiful! Do however notice some dry spots on the flap panel (wondering if it will start to peel later on as the integrity has already been compromised)
Currently waiting for my K35 to come back from the spa! Thanks for your video.
She is soo beautiful. Worth the wait :)
Thrilled for you sis! We waited with you. Thanks for the closure.
She’s absolutely stunning! 🖤
I had sent my Louis Vuitton Pochette Accessories sent off to a place in Florida. I missed it dearly but it was only gone for a few months but I was sooo glad to get it back and now it’s like new. Definitely worth it in the long run.
This is such a helpful video. I’ve considered many a time buying a vintage Hermes but I have always been worried about the restoration. Thank you 🤍
It was definitely worth the wait!!! Love to watch your bag collection video as well😍
Wow! I have never seen a shoulder Kelly. It is gorgeous! Why oh why did they stop making it?
This was very interesting and helpful to watch!
EXCELLENT. EXCELLENT. EXCELLENT.
Great info, perfect pacing, great edit.
Great video. Love it, all of it.
Great find and beautiful repairs.
Thanks for sharing the pricing breakdown. What’s interesting is the plating and front straps were so cheap. Obviously we know the bag prices are inflated but makes me wonder the true cost of an Hermes bag when it comes down to it.
Wish the video was more focused and there were more close ups of the bag. Thorough review of the services though.
Loved it❤ thanks for sharing, beautiful bag❤
Ughhhh! Such a beautiful bag and honestly it is one of my dream bag *crying emoji*.
I actually waited for this video finally!!!!!
ahhh, she was worth the wait! what a beautiful bag 🤍
Thank you so much!!
Absolutely worth it, congrats.
Wow it looks amazing! ❤
This is such a more useful bag than the mini Kelly. It is beautiful. Good deal 👍🏾 I bought a vintage Delvaux Tempête and I'm going to look into their spa service too 😊
Very informative video! Thank you!❤
Hermes really did a great job. I’m so surprised!
Wonderful bag and great results!
Very well worth it!
The bag turned out sooo beautifully. Was the bag box leather? What is your experience with the Hermes spa treating major box leather scratches?
I love the bag!
Great video - thanks for sharing. Does Hermes require you to have purchased from the boutique you bring the bag to?
It's a beauty!
such a gorgeous bag you'll have forever! even after the repairs, it was probably less than purchasing one in newer condition. random question, but where is your sweater from...love it!
Ugh it looks brand new! 😍😍😍
VERY informative video! Thank you for sharing your process!
I was wondering, if you don’t have a bag purchase history would Hermes give any issues bringing in a bag like this for the spa? I know LV sometimes gives people a hard time bc of issues regarding authenticity without a purchase history. Please let us know!
Beautiful bag Alyssa 🖤
Loved this video and the bag ofc😍
Beautiful! What is the size of this Kelly? You just call it vintage, but I'm curious what this actually is. Thanks!
I like your style about it very much. In addition to bbkbags , you have opened up new ideas for me in this field, hahahaha
I’m curious if it’s now worth more after you had it repaired at the Hermes’ spa? Just curious how that works.
Could you do a video of your updated bag collection?
Do they ask you for a receipt of the bag or where you bought it?
Bag collection next please
IN LOVE!!
What are the dimensions for this shoulder kelly? Looks smaller than the kelly 20?
Q?-what did they ask/say to you when you asked for it to be repaired? im always scared they will say no if i say i bought it pre loved. or do you even mention that? or did they even ask?. did you walk in and say, i would like my bag submitted for spa or repair?

The stores have some flexibility in dealing with clients. I’ve had some courtesy extended that would not be honored on line.
The size is perfect.
I have the same bag and sent it to hermes spa. It literally only took 1 month! I got the quotation and a phone call saying my bag was ready to pick up loll
FINALLY!!!!

I did read about that on the forums! I'm not sure that their protocol is for that 😭
@@alyssa.lenore Thank you Alyssa! I do appreciate the comment !
The bag came out great now I: said I passed on a Constance that needed work not again
Please do a bag review of this bag
I wish Hermes would make this bag again instead of the Kelly 20 Disorder which is such a bizarre bag.
good video
My birth year. I want...😍
did they ask you where you got the bag from?
They didnt!
Gorgeous 🎉
damnnn you are so smart❤❤❤
Ano po work ni Ate Alyssa? 🫰
Damn my house took less than 7 month to be built, this bag took 8 month to be fixed 😂😂😂😂
❤
🫶🏼
not focus at all
Rediculous. I ll never u derstand the purse glam. It's matériels are worth 50$. My friend runs the high end bag store in West Palm. And giggle w ea women in the store.
Mi neniam estis seniluziigita kun *yutulux* bags tote. ?iufoje kiam mi uzas mansakon, mi sentas, ke mi posedas arta?on.
Very detailed and helpful review!! Thank you so much
