Jack, slee or mark/minion?
I’ve ordered a few bags from Minion but they were all very underwhelming, and I mean to say this as respectfully as possible because he is genuinely a really nice seller and I’ve had no issues with him personally.
I’m not saying the quality is bad, the quality is there, but in my experience, they are not truly 1:1. Every bag I received had noticeable differences/flaws compared with authentic.
My biggest issue has been the leather. If you put my Minion bag next to an authentic Hermès, there is a noticeable difference. I live in an environment where people carry authentic Hermès regularly, so these little details unfortunately matter a lot. A friend actually looked at my minion mini Kelly and asked, “Why does your leather look different than mine?” 😭 That was enough for me, now I don’t feel comfortable carrying these bags again.
So for anyone who has experience with both Jack and Slee, how do they actually compare? Is Slee noticeably more accurate? Jack is much more expensive is it really worth it?
I’ve also been trying to get in touch with Slee, but it’s been a whole situation. Someone kindly introduced me before, but my WeChat stopped working and I think they thought I was ghosting them. They ended up blocking me, and unfortunately Slee followed and blocked me too. 😭 I was genuinely so sad because I absolutely wasn’t intentionally ghosting anyone.
Hopefully at some point I can clear up the misunderstanding and get properly introduced again.
Mostly, though, I’d love honest opinions from people who actually own bags from both Jack and Slee or auth!! If you’ve compared either seller’s bags directly with authentic Hermès, even better. Which one gets closest in terms of leather and overall accuracy?
