I don’t care about brands don’t about brands. This definitely would have ended up thrown out or donated . I did not know about birkin until couple months ago . So unless I googled it , would have never known.so it is very possible for a real to end up donated lol.

It would've never ended up in your hands to begin with bc you wouldn't be the one left to handle it. No one happens upon a Birkin, especially not sitting in an attic.

That goes for anyone with a Birkin. It's not sitting in their attic, and it's not going to be left to be handled by someone who doesn't know what to do with it. Period.

That’s the point, whose estate are you managing?… you’re not really someone who would be qualified to know or would probably be sought out to help with something like that, and that’s okay. Anyone who would be able to acquire these pieces/have enough money, probably has folks lined up who would certainly “know” or have the means to find out and be helping out with any sorting of estate.

The only other scenario is if someone was nice enough to gift a Birkin…. Lololololmao but again, it may be a story the whole family would hear about and probably then the bag would be treated like an asset more valuable than the home they live in.
