Birkin CEO Throws Side-Eye at Secondhand Drama

Hermès CEO Axel Dumas is having a serious mood swing thanks to freshly minted Birkins popping up on resale sites. 'I pull a face, and I'm not happy,' he confessed, revealing that reseller schmoozers are crashing the Hermès party and stealing the VIP seats from 'real customers.' Despite Hermès' $9.13 billion quarterly glow-up and an 8% sales hike, seeing their handcrafted babies auctioned secondhand feels like a betrayal. Meanwhile, Walmart's $78 Birkin dupe TikTok fame only adds salt to the CEO's sting. Hermès might be unstoppable, yet the resale ring is their unexpected thorn.
