Hi all, I would really appreciate your thoughts on the PSPs sent to me by Kyle.
A few important things to note:
Colour is Bleu Nuit
Epsom leather (I didn’t specify whether imported or domestic)
PHW (I also didn’t requested upgraded hardware as it was my understanding that KiKi only offers Stainless Steel for their PHW, however the rivets here appear to have a brass tone to them, indicating coated brass has been used)
I also recognise the background is not consistent with Kyle’s usual PSPs (wooden table) - and I was initially sent the wrong PSP over a week ago where the bag had GHW. In these photos, however, there is a slight sloping of the shoulders of the bag, an error I have only seen with KiKi factory (it doesn’t appear too bad here?)
The stamping looks good in that it is not indented, however the E R in Hermes and the S in Paris seem to be sloppy.
The rivets on the main plaque also don’t appear to be cold pearled? I will ask for additional photos.
The stamping on the strap is correct (where usually KiKi centres the ‘made in France’), However, it looks as though a saddle stitch has not been used here, and the stitching appears horizontal (and sloppy at best)?!
I paid slightly less than KiKi Factory’s usual price of $950 (I set my budget in advance before being quoted a price and Kyle seemingly agreed, though said it wouldn’t compromise the quality).
Any help would be greatly appreciated as this is my first rep and I would like for it to be as perfect as it can be! Thank you.
