Kangkas Department Store announced on the 6th that it is holding a New Year’s special event, the ‘Hermes Special Exhibition,’ welcoming 2022 with a noble collection including Hermes Birkin bags and Kelly bags, which are hard to find even when visiting Hermes stores.

This exhibition features Hermes bags worth a total of 10 billion KRW, showcasing popular items such as Hermes Birkin bags, Kelly bags, Constance bags, Lindy bags, and Bolide bags all in one place.

Hermes adopts a strategy of producing bags in limited quantities and selling these highly exclusive items only to a loyal group of customers. Because of this, among luxury enthusiasts, there are rumors that to buy a Hermes bag, one must first purchase so-called ‘performance items’?less popular Hermes products worth tens of millions of KRW?to gain favor with store staff.

An industry insider said, “It is especially difficult to purchase Hermes bags around the year-end and New Year. Since Hermes usually raises prices in January, customers rush to reserve the bags they want before then,” adding, “Hermes once again implemented a 3-7% price increase on January 5, 2022.”

However, at Kangkas Department Store located in Gangnam, customers can purchase Hermes bags immediately without competing on performance.

If you have wanted to buy Hermes but couldn’t because you couldn’t accumulate tens of millions of KRW in performance, this is a chance worth trying.

This exhibition presents popular Hermes bags such as Birkin, Kelly, Constance, as well as Garden Party, Bolide, Lindy, and Evelyne in various colors and sizes.

Additionally, Kangkas Department Store focuses on customer experience by providing a VIP shopping environment. Every visitor is matched 1:1 with a skilled seller to enjoy a safe and private shopping experience. It also offers high-class welcome drinks and free valet parking service, providing differentiated convenience.

The exhibition runs until January 17.

Meanwhile, Kangkas Department Store, the largest luxury specialty department store in Asia, is preparing a Chanel bag exhibition, which is hard to get even by opening rush, and a Rolex watch exhibition, where only air is sold in the store, following the Hermes exhibition.
