I love informative videos and how pretty you look makeup free as well! Isn't synchronicity a beautiful thing? You got these two Birkins without knowing you were going to be offered one from the boutique and I love when things like this happened, not only for material goods but life in general! Big congrat to you!!!🎉💖
I’m so Jealous 😩😩😩 but with all you’ve been through this year, you deserve all the good things happening to you right now. Fingers crossed your tests come back clean as well and also that you get offered a bag in France 😅. The blue jean 25 is everything. I didn’t know I needed one till now, so it’s gone in my collection wish list. Your birkin 30 in gold is actually gold and not caramel. The caramel is A lot lighter than that also. Enjoy your bags babe 😘
Congratulations!!! You look beautiful without makeup. Spectacular finds. I have 2 B in Clemence leather. One from 2008 and neither have veining. The other Togo ones have at least some veining. My bet is it is gold. The contrast stitching to me gives it away. Good luck in Paris.
Very interesting that they are rejuvenating bleu Jean! I have a B35 from 2005 in BJ so really interested to see the comparison. Your B25 is YUMYUM delicious!
Hello from Sunny Singapore. Claire, I'm new to your channel. Just want to thank you for sharing your experience and tips. I really enjoy watching your video content! ❤
I am so happy for your 2 new bags. They are beautiful and you certainly were lucky to receive 2 Birkins that were not good fakes. Just now you were wondering if you could take 2 bags with you. When you travel, it is very dangerous to carry expensive bags like Hermes.
Congratulations ❤️❤️ I would definitely send both bags for hermes spa, you’d spa your bags and at the same time they would know if its fake, one youtuber has shared their experience they said they bought a bag directly from store and sent it for authentication, it came bag as fake🤷🏻♀️ personally I don’t really trust those authentication websites
Did she have them authenticated? I’m not sure what I would say the reason is to bring them to the spa since they’re in amazing condition though. I’m really not worried about it at all. I wouldn’t make a video if there was any doubt in my mind. I’m not sure why people can’t just be happy for me. 🤷🏼♀️
@@ClairebanxI have seen really good used ones from the fashionphile store in NY. I do like the blue Birkin but I feel you could have gotten a better used Gold Birkin for that price.
I can’t buy second hand anymore…have you seen the super fakes unboxing videos? They send them like that, they’re real leather too. I hate being pessimistic, I just can’t anymore. I hope those are real, they’re beautiful.🌻 thank you for sharing.💕
Hi hi, I just checked my K25 (stamp U 2022) and B25 (stamp B 2023). Both hv same lock number as well and can unlock each other too! Oh..I learn new thing today!
There was no AG for this purchase, so yes. I think you need to be educated and have some knowledge about what looks legit and be very diligent to get it authenticated quickly once it is in your possession, also pay with a card you can trust to have your back!
Because you have to be “offered” to buy a bag at Hermes after spending a lot of money on other things and building a relationship with your sales associate, you can’t just walk in and buy one. That is why usually “brand new from boutique” Hermès bags can sell for double or triple the retail price, because you can’t just buy one when you want to. That’s why getting a used bag at retail is a “good deal” 🫶🏽
If you carry a Hermès or Chanel bag - or any other bag that is a well-known designer bag, you will attract attention. Unfortunately also for thieves, you are like a walking sign " I have money ".I would never risk that. Take any other elegant bag with you and besides, you might also buy a new bag and then you will need to look after that new bag, too. You know well what to do, - you are not a child. As a European myself I felt I wanted to warn you. There are more pick-pockets all over the Continent, - more than before the Pandemic. Large numbers of people without a steady income and the current world situation. Please pay attention. All the best.
Thanks! In Florida we don’t really worry about that because we never defunded the police and also most law abiding people carry guns… I also don’t really go to dangerous areas or large crowds of people. But thanks so much for your concern.
I got scammed by a Japanese seller... Bought a red leather Chloe Kerala bag, I thought... It was a total dupe... A Good dupe but fake.... I would never buy from them again... I paid 330 euros.
I didn’t for this one. I did for an LV backpack recently and I was honestly so annoyed because it added almost another $250 to the cost. I have ordered probably 20 items from Japan on eBay and only had to pay customs once so it was a risk I was willing to take
So beautiful. You family is so cute! 😂 good luck in Paris! I’m curious to hear when you get an offer (😉) and if they see your quota bag that you just got yesterday, and if they pull the one quota bag every 6 month rule out, unless you are traveling with another person. We will definitely need an Hermes story time when you get back!
Not sure where you are located, but if you are located in the US. It depends on the seller. Most larger JP sellers know how to complete the custom forms in order not to pay custom fees for US buyers. They usually ship EMS/DHL. Some smaller JP sellers and/or ship fedex...they will definitely charge custom tax, which is a large amount for these type handbags. That's my experience, just have to risk it sometimes when the item is priced right.
Hi Claire re the brown 30 the colour gold can look very different on different leathers. Re the blue Jean Japan in general is very strict about not selling fakes. You also would have benefitted from a weak yen. Beautiful bags. Enjoy
omgggg the gold is obviously an icon!!! but the blue jean makes your eyes POP!!! CONGRATS!
Fingers crossed for u in Paris!!! Wishing you a mini Kelly ❤
Thank you so much!! A mini Kelly is not really on my list but I appreciate the sentiment! Thanks for watching! 🩷

“They grow up so fast”.. haha.. so cute! And, great finds! ♥️
That also made me LOL!!
Hehe thank you!!!

I love the bag. The color is gold (because of the white stitching). The different tan of color is because the differend kind of leather…
Congratulations!!! You look beautiful without makeup. Spectacular finds. I have 2 B in Clemence leather. One from 2008 and neither have veining. The other Togo ones have at least some veining. My bet is it is gold. The contrast stitching to me gives it away. Good luck in Paris.
Thank you! And I agree I think the contrast stitching proves it is gold. Thank you so much for watching 🖤
@@Clairebanx the girl took a pic of the toffee Constance slim with her gold b so I screenshotted it if you want me to send
I love you so much! I recently just found your kislux and i’m in love!! Your videos are so fun and you energy is just MWAH! keep living your life
You lucky girl...enjoy in good health and wear the hell out of them!!!!🎉
Wait…… did you just convince me to buy a Birkin on eBay?!? This is so interesting & your new bags are PERFECT 😍
Your look today is so fresh and clean I love it!! :)
You are so funny and entertaining. Love your videos.
Thank you so much!
My heart stopped when the blue Jean came out 😮
Wow your bags are beautiful
Amazing finds. Loooove the swift color on that B30, the patina is to die for.
Thanks so much!
Very interesting that they are rejuvenating bleu Jean! I have a B35 from 2005 in BJ so really interested to see the comparison. Your B25 is YUMYUM delicious!
You are stunning and style these bags like no one else. Hermes is lucky to have someone like you carrying their merchandise. :)
Oh, so happy for you 😍🥰
Now let's have your health scans all clear and off to pick up more Hermès in France 🤩❤
Best wishes from Italy 😇
Togo pebbles can vary I’ve seen older Togo bags where the pebbles can be surprisingly large ❤
So happy for you Claire! They are beautiful for sure! Enjoy using them🥰
For the older bags, suggest to send to Hermes spa for a refresh 😊
Can you do that even if you did not purchase them directly from Hermes?
@@anjel87I was wondering the same thing 🤔
@@anjel87 yes….it’s also authenticated becoz if it’s not from Hermes, they don’t service.
Yes for sure necessity
Beautiful bags! Congratulations! 🎉
Screaming. Screaming with joy for you girlfriend! Congratulations and enjoy! Keeping you in my prayers 🫶

Thank you for sharing!! 😊❤❤
Beautiful bags. Great additions to your collection 🥰
Can’t wait to see what you got offered in store 🤩
good deals eBay has very good authentication! You look so pretty without make up🙂
They are beautiful 😍 congratulations 🍾🎊🎉

@@ClairebanxI have seen really good used ones from the fashionphile store in NY. I do like the blue Birkin but I feel you could have gotten a better used Gold Birkin for that price.
the Orans are made of Box, not Swift. The leathers pick up color differently. Great purchases!! Congrats!!!!!
Some are made of swift 🎉
The gold are made of Box. Great scores nonetheless. Love the blue jean birkin. Again, congrats 🎉
Go, Claire! P.S. Maybe you can change/re-set the lock codes?
I can’t buy second hand anymore…have you seen the super fakes unboxing videos? They send them like that, they’re real leather too. I hate being pessimistic, I just can’t anymore. I hope those are real, they’re beautiful.🌻 thank you for sharing.💕
Just to double/triple check I had them authenticated again and they passed! I understand the hesitation!
SO excited for you!!
All dat kislux bags sssssoooooooo gorgeous
Caramel will not come with white stitching. Could be gold or toffee.
Hi hi, I just checked my K25 (stamp U 2022) and B25 (stamp B 2023). Both hv same lock number as well and can unlock each other too! Oh..I learn new thing today!
Isn’t that interesting! I wonder how many different locks they use!
@@Clairebanx haha My SA told me that don’t lose the keys! If not cannot find replacement haha now I laugh 🤣
So jealous!
Claire, what colour is your B35 in this video? Is it Ebene? Noir? or like a deep Raisin?
Hi there, it’s noir!
Gorgeous Blue 💙
Girl, you look so damn good without makeup! 😊
Beautiful bags!❤❤
Beautiful collection
Love love loooove!!! 😍😍😍
Beautiful bags
Best unboxing!! Wierd about the locks…
NFC is an app that probably needed to be on your phone
Congratulations if you have peace with it enjoy but I will still be skeptical that is just my personal opinion
If I was skeptical I would not make a video about them. I will probably eventually send to Hermes spa but they just don’t need any work right now
Hello, Would you buy from EBay Japan if there was no authenticity guarantee. 2. How does paying for duty/customs work?
There was no AG for this purchase, so yes. I think you need to be educated and have some knowledge about what looks legit and be very diligent to get it authenticated quickly once it is in your possession, also pay with a card you can trust to have your back!
What company did you use to authenticate?
authenticatefirst.com
31 backwards is 13 🤩
*Turbirkin, derived from the root word of Turducken 🤣
LMAO
why pay the same amount for a used bag when you can get it at the shop at the same price?
Because you have to be “offered” to buy a bag at Hermes after spending a lot of money on other things and building a relationship with your sales associate, you can’t just walk in and buy one. That is why usually “brand new from boutique” Hermès bags can sell for double or triple the retail price, because you can’t just buy one when you want to. That’s why getting a used bag at retail is a “good deal” 🫶🏽
@@Clairebanx thanks for the clarification. I would suspect it is more about having to wait through a waiting list
If you carry a Hermès or Chanel bag - or any other bag that is a well-known designer bag,
you will attract attention. Unfortunately also for thieves, you are like a walking sign " I have

Wow! Good thing you got it authenticated. Did you get your money back and file a report?
I think this is caramel
Does Caramel have a white stitching as well because I believe only gold and etaupe usually have it (for neutrals)
Def caramel. Not gold
But I think gold has white contrast stitching and caramel doesn’t…
I don’t think caramel comes with contrast stitching though
Yeah it must be gold but depending on how it was stored etc different leathers must be why it looks diff to orans. So cool
I don’t miss a day a week kislux This show..
Awesome 🙌🏻🙌🏻….question-did you have to pay customs with the 25 if so how does that work?…always little hesitant to buy from Japan 4 that reason……thx 🫶
