Q: How to sell my Hermès?

Once the appraiser authenticates the item, you can choose buy-out or consignment. If you wish to buyout, we will bank transfer the agreed amount to your designated account. If you wish to consign, we will let you know once the consignment is sold and the bank transfers the agreed amount to you by then.
