2 years is a long time, but it’s not that bad considering the fact that there is a 6-year wait list for the bag– the longest wait for any bag in history.
Every time I hear a story about a Birkin bag; I automatically remember the episode from Sex and the City when Samantha used her client Lucy Liu to get herself a Birkin. Basically, this bag is extremely hard to get.
The only way you will be able to get one is if you are extremely lucky and they have it at the store because they no longer take special orders from regular folks.So why is this handbag so special? The Birkin bag is a handmade purse by Hermès and named after actress and singer Jane Birkin. The bag is a symbol of wealth due to its high price and elusiveness to the public.
Depending on the material of the bag, prices range from $9,000 to $150,000.
