PLDT, Smart and Sun Cellular Advisory on Typhoon Glenda

Telecom facilities of PLDT, Smart and Sun Cellular in Metro Manila, Regions 3, 4 & 5 are largely unscathed by Typhoon Glenda, but widespread commercial power outages have disrupted normal services in various areas.

Though key Installations of both fixed line and mobile networks have standby power, many facilities rely in varying degrees on commercial power. Prolonged outages will thus disrupt normal services once the internal batteries in equipment run out.

Both PLDT and Smart have deployed generator sets in strategic areas to keep vital facilities operating and speed up restoration of normal service.

We wish to assure the public that we are exerting every effort to restore normal operations as soon as possible. We thank you for your patience & understanding.

The Tale of the Fake Hermes Bag

Once upon a time, a buyer bought this Hermes Birkin from a trusted store that sells second hand bags.  After  using the bag for quite some time, she wanted to send the bag to Hermes Paris for maintenance.  So, she brought the bag to Hermes Greenbelt which accepted it. As a local franchisee, Hermes Greenbelt was in charged of forwarding it to Hermes Paris. 

After a few months, this shocking letter came with the bag:

The bag is a counterfeit and it escaped the eyes of the people in Hermes Greenbelt.  I spoke to Dennis Robles, who is a trusted Hermes reseller about this and according to him, he knew immediately that it was a fake when he inspected the bag because of the stitching. 

May this be a big reminder to would-be buyers to be more vigilant in their purchases of pricey branded items. Always trust your intuition. When in doubt, it will not hurt to ask opinions from not just one, but at least two experts.

A 2.5 Million Peso FAKE Hermes Crocodile Birkin

This Hermes Fuchsia Crocodile Birkin looks genuine to the untrained eye. Since it would be next to impossible to get something like this from the Hermes store, a collector bought this from an online bag reseller (begins with the letter L) for 2.5 million pesos. She almost had a heart attack when an Hermes aficionado told her that this bag was fake. 

Here are some pointers on how to spot a fake Hermes Bag:

• Study the hardware. Hermes bags have a covering to protect the hardware, which the store does not remove until you purchase the bag. The hardware is solid, not hollow. The logo, a carriage and horse, is engraved on the hardware. Hermes engraving means the letters or design is lower than the surface, not raised above the surface. 
• Examine the stitching. An authentic bag will have straight, even stitches and no loose threads. Also, the thread will match the bag, a sign that Hermes bags are quality workmanship. 
• Look at the front face of the bag. The name "Hermes Paris, Made in France" is always stamped on the front face. 
• Look for the date the bag was manufactured. The artisan's mark and the year the bag was manufactured are stamped beneath the right belt. 
• Check the inside of the bag. Hermes bags do not have a metal nameplate. Also, examine the leather carefully. Hermes bags are made of the finest leather. It will not have defects. 
• To understand the quality and workmanship of a Hermes bag, go to a Hermes boutique and examine the handbags. Look at the quality of the lining, feel the purity of the leather, and pay attention to the elegant, understated details. Once you have seen an authentic bag, you will be able to spot a fake Hermes.
