I will explain it in an easy-to-understand manner.
Why professionals place importance on “manufacturing year” and “list price”
1. Year of manufacture = “report card” of asset value
The engraving indicates the year of birth of the bag. It is assumed that the vehicle is in good condition, but basically, the newer the model year, the higher the asset value tends to be evaluated.
2. “Ruler” to measure condition
By knowing the number of years that have passed since manufacture, you can objectively judge the condition of the bag. Furthermore, by comparing the year of manufacture and condition, you can determine whether the price of the product is reasonable.
3. Knowing the list price will help you find the “appropriate price”
HERMESThe price is revised every year and continues to rise. If you don't know the latest list price, you can't judge whether the used price is ``really a good deal.''
「HERMESIs it true that today is the cheapest day?
The reason why it is said that ``the time to buy is when you want it'' is due to the rise in list prices. In recent years, revisions have been made every few months, and it is not uncommon for the same model to differ by several hundred thousand yen or more compared to a few years ago.
Even when considering asset value, early purchase often ends up being a ``choice that won't cause any loss.''
