The Birkin Fever
The "Birkin" bag is a purse manufactured by leather goods and ready-to-wear manufacturer Hermès. It is named after British-born actress and singer Jane Birkin, a longtime resident of France.Generally, the price of a Birkin starts at approximately $5000 USD, not including sales taxes....Because of the high profile of the Hermès brand and the high prices attached to their products, there is a significant amount of counterfeit Hermès merchandise produced and sold, some of which ends up on online retail and auction websites such as eBay.
Authenticity can sometimes be determined by the presence of these characteristics:
Even stitching
Gilt or blind stamped in the front face under the tap: "Hermès Paris, Made in France"
Craftsman's marks and letter year of manufacture stamped in a square underside of right belt. The year of manufacture should be consistent with condition and history of bag
Interior leather zipper tag parallel with zipper hardware, not perpendicular
