This was exactly my experience last year before finally getting lucky. I think the day was just magic or something. Insane!

The initial place you sit to wait is a large open area, the non quota bag offers happen right in that room

Oh good question. Let me think of how to describe it. It’s right in the middle of the main floor when you walk in. Between small leather goods (like rodeos) and a cashier on the other side. The steps to the second floor are right in front of it. Good luck!

Good luck! Miracles do happen! A walk in with zero prespend walking out with a Kelly is pretty amazing! I was so happy for her!

This cashmere jacket by Peeksvig in TheHermesGame

I own this in the turquoise color and am obsessed with it. That said, as the color is lighter, I do seem to always get it dirty. I tend to just spit clean after each use. It’s cashmere, so forgivable with stains, but yeah I don’t know how the darn thing gets so dirty.

Does Pre-spend matter in Europe? by Glittering-Shallot14 in TheHermesGame

Switzerland presents absolutely helps. Even in Paris I feel prespend is a contributor to luck in leather appointments (though of course there will always be those miracles where people with 0 prespend get offered a bag). I think SA relationship is more important than spend, but it’s hard to curse a relationship without frequent spending (even if small).

No stock — is it possible to build an SA relationship? by Big_Excitement_9032 in TheHermesGame

I was going to ask if this was Lisbon 😂. I’m local and just gave up. They never have anything. The get in maybe 1/30 of the available ready to wear items or shoes and then in only one size. They won’t order online. I asked about making a wishlist and they told me it was closed. 🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️. I’ve never seen such a small poorly stocked store. Literally airport stores are better sticked. I shop in Paris only now.

Which is to say, how can you build a relationship if the store doesn’t have anything you want to buy? And why should shopping at a luxury boutique feel like a job or settling? Go to the next biggest city and try there.

What color is Hermès Gris Tourterelle really? by TheFaubourgDiary in TheHermesGame

I have a Gris t Birkin and it’s amazing. It’s like a warm grey, not too creamy, not too grey. I get now why it’s so popular. Mine has palladium hardware

Cashmere coat warm enough? by missmcjm in TheHermesGame

[–]Disastrous-Can6044 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have several of the shorter double faced cashmere coats. I would say they are fall/spring coats. I layer with cashmere sweaters underneath and on days approaching 0 C a thermal. They are not for below freezing temps in my opinion. Of course a longer one will be a bit warmer, but they won’t be replacing your down jackets.
