About the book: 2023 / The exciting story of former makeup artist Michael Tonello began with an impulsive move to Barcelona, ​​plans that vanished like smoke and a scarf from Hermès, which he successfully sold on eBay to make quick money. But resourceful Michael soon discovered the truth about the legendary Birkin waiting list and discovered the secret to quickly getting your hands on the precious bag. In his memoirs, he chronicles the extraordinary adventures that took him from eBay to an auction house in Paris, into the lives of celebrities and collectors, into a millionaire and Robin Hood for thousands of desperate rich women. You'll laugh with delight at the performances that Michael had to put on to get the already "reserved" bags (believe me, they are worthy of an Oscar); worry when he hired gangsters to return the Birkin - one of the customers held her “hostage”, and also enjoy immersing yourself in a world of luxury, business cocktails and gastronomic meals that will make even the most sophisticated gourmets salivate.
