Sold prices from eBay via Terapeak, all conditions, including worn and vintage pieces. The resale range is the middle half of these sales.
The best-known version of the story: on a 1983 flight, Hermès chief Jean-Louis Dumas sat next to actress Jane Birkin, who wanted a bag big enough for everything she carried, and the first sketch was made on an airsickness bag.
Hermès does not simply sell Birkins. Boutiques offer them to clients with a purchase history, which keeps supply below demand and is the main reason the small sizes resell above retail.
Each bag is made by one artisan from start to finish, signed with their stamp inside the strap, and takes many hours of hand stitching.
Smaller sizes are the story of the last decade: the 25 resells at roughly 1.5 times boutique price on recorded sales, while the 30 and larger now sell below retail as tastes moved to compact bags.
Our verdict: The benchmark of luxury resale. The 25 is the only size that resells above boutique price, at about 1.5 times. The 30, 35 and 40 sell below retail on recorded sales.
Buy only from authenticated resellers or with a professional authentication. The most wanted Hermès pieces are also the most counterfeited.
Recorded eBay sales from the last 12 months put the typical Hermès Birkin 35 at $9,800, with the middle half selling between $8,300 and $12,000 (137 sales). Condition, leather, color and hardware move the price within that range.
No. The typical sale of $9,800 is about 40% below the $16,300 retail price.
The Crown Index grades it C+ (66/100) from real resale data, and today's call is watch. Middle-of-the-pack resale; fine to own, not one to buy expecting it to rise. Past prices are not a forecast.
