Shocking video captures the moment a burglar used a hammer to smash the display window of a Manhattan auction house – before he and an accomplice ripped off more than $200,000 worth of Hermes bags from inside, authorities said. 

The clip, released early Wednesday, shows a white Acura sedan pulling up in front of Heritage Auctions on Park Avenue near East 57th Street in Midtown around 3:50 a.m. March 7. 

Three men get out – two of whom are toting hammers. 

Then one of the men repeatedly hammers at the glass window and yanks at it before it nearly lands on top of him, but he gets out of the way in a split-second, the clip shows. 

He then snatches up eight of the designer bags – worth a whopping $242,000 – from the display window, as it lay shattered on the pavement, the clip shows. 

The suspects ran off and got back into the sedan with their designer loot, cops said. 

Police were still looking for them Wednesday.
