Sold prices from eBay via Terapeak, all conditions, including worn and vintage pieces. The resale range is centered on their median. Few sales, so treat it as a rough guide.
Introduced in 1923, the Bolide is often described as the first leather handbag with a zip, after Émile-Maurice Hermès secured the French rights to the zip fastener he had seen on a car's canvas cover.
Its rounded bowling-bag shape is practical and secure, and it is much easier to be offered than a Birkin or Kelly.
Resale generally sits below retail, because availability is good and it lacks the scarcity premium.
That makes it one of the better values for buying a pre-owned Hermès leather bag.
Our verdict: A historic, practical bag at a discount pre-owned. Wear it, don't flip it.
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 Bolide 1923 Mini at $4,650, with the middle half selling between $4,200 and $5,100 (3 sales). Condition, leather, color and hardware move the price within that range.
No. The typical sale of $4,650 is about 38% below the $7,550 retail price.
The Crown Index grades it C- (60/100) 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.
