Birkin Bag Purchase Requirements
Share
A story about how difficult and exclusive it is to purchase a Birkin bag, as told by Shaan Puri.
"I had a cousin who flew to Paris to try to buy a birkin bag. I'm like 'you made a vacation out of this?' and she's like 'yeah, I've been working my way up.' She had to buy all these other luxury bags just to be invited to possibly buy a birkin.
You can't just buy it even if you have all the money in the world. You could walk into Louis Vuitton, you could buy everything, but you can't buy a birkin. Why? Because a birkin is elevated above that. The cheap end is $30,000 for these bags, and it's about $50,000 if you buy it from the store - but that's assuming they'll even let you buy one."
