Methodology

BirkinBagStock indexes authenticated Hermès Birkin listings hourly across 12 luxury resale merchants. Verdicts are heuristic: a listing's price is compared to the median price in its (size, color) cohort. Listings priced 15-30% below the cohort median are flagged Below market; 30%+ below are Steals. Cohorts with fewer than three comparable listings are excluded from verdict scoring to keep results conservative.
