i want birkin

I just starting Bringing Home The Birkin, recommended to me by my lovely niece Lina. I really enjoyed this book – it is written by Michael Tonello, who apparently had quite the career finding and selling the exclusive Hermes Birkin bag on eBay.He is friendly, yet elegant in a way. His story is quite amazing – it begins with a move to Barcelona (my fav city) following a job that never panned out, and then through selling his designer clothing collection on eBay, he discovered the power of obsessed fashionista collectors and then wiggled and jiggled until he found out how to give them what they wanted.

One more suprise, Michael also had OCD
