Would you want this “Birkin”?

A while ago, I stumbled on pictures of a pretty interesting canvas bag.  Apparently, this bag was getting neverending orders, and stores selling the bags have all sold out.

Recognize it? :)

Yep, it had the unmistakable print of the ever-popular Hermes Birkin printed on it.  Comes in several colors too.

There’s a concern out there as to whether this bag is at all “legal”.  And whether or not Hermes has had its stamp of approval for that bag.

That aside, these bags are selling like hot cakes!  I actually saw it being advertised for sale on Facebook, and out of curiosity I inquired on the price.  It was a whopping RM500! 

Well, definitely cheaper than owning an original Hermes! LOL

Have you seen this bag? Have you been tempted to get one?  Or are you already using one yourself?  Would you succumb to dishing out RM500 for a bag like this?

    I agree! Probably if it’s RM50 or something… I could consider it. :)
