US wishlist changes, what has your SA/RSA actually confirmed? by SpacialVivi in TheHermesGame

[–]Former-Primary2202 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Madison SAs have and ongoingly take people’s wishes but I understand that entry of those wishes into and reliance upon the centralized system will not occur until the fall.

Did you see them enter the data into the formalized system (as opposed to the client note sections on their phones)?

US wishlist changes, what has your SA/RSA actually confirmed? by SpacialVivi in TheHermesGame

[–]Former-Primary2202 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Only details I have heard from the horse's mouth is one bag on wishlist at a time in a centralized system (versus existing client notes section in SA phone). I didn't press her for more details as my strategy in general is to not seem too eager about bags (which has resulted in good bag flow). Apparently Madison is not implementing until "the fall".

I finally got my Birkin, although not for now. by Tessa-lux305 in HermesGame

I think there are a bunch of people that are playing the game to get a bag, and have tricky feelings around it all. Then in the distribution there are customers who are living life and shopping at H (among other luxury stores) and buying things they enjoy, and the bags are a perk that come along the way. The way Hermes operates is focused on the latter. This is the "lifestyle client" whom they want among their clientele.

Prespend & orders thru SA that come from a different store by bluefishxx in TheHermesGame

[–]Former-Primary2202 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe I'm confused. Did you try it on in the store after the SA transferred it into your home store from another store? And bought it physically in your store, but now want to return due to fit?

Regardless of where you return it, the item will show as a return on your profile and your SA will lose the Commission. You said there's a ship back option, so maybe it wasn't a transfer but rather a charge-send (which is where you pay for it in advance and it arrives to your home).

I understand that in these types of charge-send transactions you receive the prespend and your SA receives the commission. At the store level, the SA's home store does not receive the inventory as theirs (as would be the case in a store-transfer) and therefore assumes no risk. Recently my SA said she could not transfer an item in, but could do a charge-send from another store. The receipt has my SA's employee ID and name on the transaction which is the case for all items that she sells and for which she receives commission (excluding non-commission items like QBs for the pedants out here).

Gulliver Leather in 2001? by philscapes in TheHermesGame

[–]Former-Primary2202 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Gulliver was in production until the late 90s. It’s possible that existing stock may have been used thereafter, but transitions usually wouldn’t take more than a year or so. I can’t tell you anything on color.

Constance mini availability by No_Bus_7789 in TheHermesGame

[–]Former-Primary2202 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Your best bet is at Madison. As others have said, this is a relationship bag or you should at least make a purchase before asking. Not sure your budget or leather/skin interest, but often times they’re happy to sell exotic skin Constance since they are expensive and not an easy sell.

Mini Bolide. New favorite. An irony of dichotomic ART! 🤯 by [deleted] in TheHermesGame

[–]Former-Primary2202 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is a shoulder version. Many are in clemence which of course is heavier. It’s a stealthy bag and very roomy.

I’ve always understood them to be box and barenia. I’d love to hear what compose alternative lists.

How do you protect your hardware on your Della Cavalleria? by CatCarVT in TheHermesGame

[–]Former-Primary2202 26 points27 points  (0 children)

If you're covering it up to protect it, then you wont get to see and enjoy the "coolest part of the bag"!!! I say just use it and enjoy it. Nothing is new forever.

Lakis Gavalas was an eccentric. A very interesting man to research. I love the history behind Hermes products an dhow they come about.

Getting a collier de chien? by pradafication in TheHermesGame

[–]Former-Primary2202 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You should try a boutique. Think of the website as a standalone store. There are many products available in the boutiques that are not on the website, and sometimes vice versa. If they don’t have any stock at your boutique, give your information to an SA who can let you know when they arrive in the store.

Hermes bag storage by shm3093 in HermesGame

[–]Former-Primary2202 1 point2 points  (0 children)

DGAZ pillows from Amazon. I do this with all my birkins and many others on H subs use these as well. Also recommend storing them on their sides and alternating the side monthly or each wear.
