True, true, but I don't think Hermes should care for the same reason (I think) that rp doesn't think so. The housewives watching Oprah are not its target market. They may be Coach's target market, but I seriously doubt Hermes gets a lot of sales from Oprahfuckers. Sex and the City product placements? Sure. Word that celebrities are waiting on waiting lists for their bags? Yes. Oprah show? I just don't think so. The women buying these bags are more likely out with the ladies lunching* than sitting on their couches watching Oprah. Wrong demographic.
I'd guess that [assuming no racism showing] this episode helps their US sales. Think how many more people must have been by their website in the last 2 days.
*or, like my friends who have the bags, working their asses off for their six figure paychecks
