Goodwill Find: HERMES-PARIS Tote

On my way to pick up JD from my parents house on Wednesdays I typically stop at my favorite Goodwill and last Wednesday was no exception. I made my usually rounds and made my last stop at the purse and bags section (I always leave it for last because it’s my favorite section). I found a few really cute purses, but a small tote caught my attention, it was the perfect lunch bag; as I began to inspect it I was a little shocked, the tag on the tote read HERMES-PARIS! Well, I bought the tote for $4.99 and took it home and began to wonder if it could possibly be authentic. I began researching online and found that this tote is a Discontinued Hermes Fourre-Tout tote and if authentic can run anywhere from $300-$700 and if it’s a replica it can run about $200, can you believe that! The hubby has already suggested I sell it immediately, but I’m still doing research and still think it would make a cute lunch bag if it’s not authentic, well a cute $200 (Hermes replica) lunch bag! So, don’t forget to stop at your local Goodwill, you may be shocked at what you find too!
