A group of seemingly professional thieves have lifted 500 Hermès bags from a Parisian facility where they were being packaged for sale across Europe. The six thieves even managed to coerce the facility’s manager into helping them load the bags into their van – smooth operators! The police noted that “the mode of operation suggests they were a well-prepared team.” They’re yet to be caught, and the bags are still m.i.a. It looks like the mythical Birkin Bag wait list just got longer.
