I sold 3 hermes ties last weekend to a fellow forum member. They were new with tags, and purchased from Nieman Marcus. I am also the person that posted the article on Hermes ties. I am in Dallas, TX and these ties are hard to come bye and find at various stores. And, now I understand why after selling them.
Hermes is a truly uniqe luxury brand. Other luxury brands have follow Hermes unique design and patterns. For example, Ferragamo and Versace now offer patterns, styles, and similar fabric weigt neckwear with animals and other unique figures on printed silk. For example, I came across a Salvetor Ferragamo tie in repeating omega figures, and 2 others in patterns that I haven't seen. I also came across a Versace in repeating candy canes. So, you can expand your options to other luxury brands as well.
I will have to agree with other forum members about purchasing ties from overseas sellers, and other ebay sellers. Fakes/knock offs have come along way and are not easy to spot. Have the seller post pictures from several different angels, and upclose of the inner lining and tail. Also, look closely at the logo and registration number on the tail.
Good luck, and I hope this helps in some fashion.
