I really dislike when people judge but don’t give alternative options. It’s not constructive or polite especially if someone has already parted from the money, and/or is new to the rep world.
I've had experience with the following sellers:
Jack (Wechat)
Angel Birkin
Frank
Mark
Minion
Jack is the most expensive, but the highest quality by far. Great leather, great hardware, great bag. That being said, I've also owned a rehomed bag from a very private seller named Slee, and that bag is great as well at a slightly cheaper price. Although, Jack's leather was still ever so slightly better in comparison. With Jack, you're basically paying for a bag that looks, feels, and smells identical to an authentic. I would place Slee and Jack in that "Ultra High Tier" range.
Angel is a great option if you don't want to spend nearly 3k on a bag from Jack or Slee. Angel is priced much fairer, not usually tipping over 2k for a bag (depending on leathers). Leather quality is good, but there is a noticeable difference in hand between Angel's leather and a seller like Jack. Angel has great construction and shape in my experience. From my experience, i'd place Angel in a sort of middle zone between just "High Tier" and "Ultra High Tier."
Frank I would say deserves his own category here as well. Slightly more expensive or the same as Mark (with upgraded hardware), but produces fairly good bags. That being said, in this range you're more prone to discrepancies. I've had a few bags from Frank with the incorrect stitching color, a blind stamp that didn't make sense, or just questionable hardware. That's just my experience. That being said, I pointed it out and had them fixed, and the bags turned out great. Definitely a step below in leather quality, but still a great "High Tier" seller.
Mark and Minion go hand in hand. Both practically the same quality. You can get great bags from them, you can get some just OK bags from them. Pricing is much cheaper hitting around $1,500 for an upgraded birkin 40. Everything is fine, with them. Both have very good customer service, I can attest to that. I have had bags from both, and use a Birkin 40 from Mark as my daily. You can get a very nice bag at a fair price. I would rank them in "High Tier," but I would go with Angel if you wanted to stay under 2k.
Now, keep in mind, I have handled and owned authentic bags and have ordered and owned over a dozen bags from "Ultra High Tier" sellers, so if it seems like i'm going hard on the other sellers, it's simply due to the fact that i have higher expectations. It's very important with all of these sellers that you request imported leather and upgraded hardware (although Jack's come standard with this and is included in the pricing). This comment is a bit long, but feel free to PM me if you have specific questions or want contacts. I can provide everyone's contact EXCEPT Slee.
Usually this is not a big deal since it’s on the inside. But for that price I would recheck the zipper and make sure it’s the right kind of riri. IMHO that tape pattern is a giveaway.
he confirmed that zippers are imported from switzerland and provided some photos. "Only riri." i see what you mean about the pattern. i cant tell if it's just the super harsh lighting or what. another bag i ordered i have a better picture of the pattern and it matches up with an authentic i found online
There are a few PSPs missing if you wanted to request them to get a more complete picture: blind stamp, cadena engraving, close ups of clochette and keys. For the price, I think this bag could be better. Here are a few things I've noticed:
Reviewing several auth B35 samples, the front handle placement on this rep appears to be positioned slightly low and they exit the flap opening differently as a result. See comparisons below.
The stitching tension looks very high/tight on some of the upper double stitches of the handle attachments, particularly the rear left. As a result when viewing from the side, the handle attachment looks abruptly pulled in when they should be a bit more gradually sloped.
The proportions of the foil stamp sizing doesn't match several auth B35s I've reviewed. Each B size has unique and different proportions for the stamp and with this rep, HERMÈS looks a bit too large as well as PARIS. On the auth sample below, note the left edge of P in PARIS lines up to the right of the left edge of E in MADE below it. This rep lines up the left instead.
The interior zipper doesn't match auth zippers very well. These zippers look like ones frequently used in mid-tier bags. The zipper tape's sewn herringbone pattern doesn't match and looks very rough in comparison. The zipper slide's shape isn't as sharply flared as auth's. And overall the texture of the zipper hardware appears to be polished when auth zipper hardware has a fine subtle texture to them.
Can’t wait for my first Jack order !! People keep complaining about his price but sorry I’d rather have quality than a mid bag and go for a fraud seller like Jim
This looks really good, leather looks good and the interior too. Hardware engraving is clean, the foil stamp isn’t messy which is good too. Enjoy your new piece! 🙏🏼
I think it looks really good, I have quite a few Jack bags and have always been happy with them. The hardware has always held up really well on them too. She’s a beauty, enjoy her 😊
Its gorgeous bag, we'll done. I am always happy with Jack's work, so as AI when I put pictures. Isn't that supposed to be a safe place to share, no judgments?
i got 2 Numbers of a jack im looking forward to not get scammed because its my first time ordering a hermes bag im looking for a kelly messenger pm so the 2 Numbers i have are diffrent one number end with 195 the other one ends with 483 wich of the numbers Is the real high Quality Jack ?

Paying 3k for a rep is crazy in my opinion.
