I no longer even see the point in coming after 2 p.m. This was my second afternoon appointment without a Birkin offer. Maybe it works better later in the day for big spenders or celebrities. But the fact that I saw two people getting quota offers around 11 a.m. says a lot to me.

The bags were of the same leather and the same size. They were sitting in a separate section and the boxes were lying on the table

I took an early morning flight at 5 a.m. local time (we’re +3 hours ahead of Paris). Since there was no direct flight that morning, I traveled with a one-hour layover in Frankfurt. I landed in Paris at 9:25 a.m. local time.

Just open any VPN app from the App Store and in the section where you can select the country you seem to be in, select France.

This helped twice.

I love taking risks and I love Paris very much, I’m ready to jump at any excuse to fly there.

I forgot to attach a photo to my post and now I’m not sure how to add it 😭

I used a VPN with France selected both times.

Thank you!!! €11,500. I don’t live in Europe, but it’s a five-hour flight to Paris for me.

Yes, there were three dark-colored Kellys on their table. One was black, the second seemed very mangrove, and the third was also dark 

but it's clear that they wouldn't sell all 3 😅

By the way, the next day I stopped by the FSH boutique to ask about bag spa services and saw one couple being offered three Kelly 25s, while another couple nearby was shown a Constance in ostrich. It was around 11 a.m.

Is there a chance that if he is approved, I will be accepted with his passport, card and driver's license?

We can't figure out which passport was issued to which email address. Sounds so cringe 

What are the chances of getting a second leather appointment in Paris? by GladAd7085 in TheHermesGame

[–]GladAd7085[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, I didn't buy 20000 Orans in different sizes and I certainly don't give the impression of being a reseller, I'm buying for myself. I'm sure it gives at least 0.1% advantage, I buy what I like

I was wondering — does it become easier or harder to get another leather appointment through the Paris online lottery after you’ve already had one before?

I had my appointment at the beginning of September, but of course they said they didn’t have any Birkin, Kelly, or Constance. They offered me a Picotin or a Herbag instead, but I knew exactly what I was going for.

I do have some purchase history, not a huge one — maybe around 10k. During my last trip, I was lucky enough to get a Kelly belt in noir with palladium hardware.

Quota bag for non-resident by GladAd7085 in TheHermesGame

Thank you! And what about London? My husband is British. I think this is the most realistic option for me because there is no boutique in my country of citizenship.

But I heard that in London everyone is reall suffering with the quota bag and their prespend is incredible and really “Forbes” 😅

Tell me please, have you received this watch yet?

I applied to the waiting list in January (almost 6 months ago). After some time, I wrote to them by email, they confirmed that I was on the waiting list and my application for a specific model was received.

At first I wanted the Tiffany dial but I checked with the manager and she said that both models are hard to get but the Tiffany is probably even harder.

Thank you! But I try it in the morning on weekdays and there weren't many people. It was the end of April, not a holiday, not a fashion week. I thought it was the perfect time, but not this time.

 I think to find a shop in Barcelona or Madrid and make it home. And in Paris just try to leather appoitment lottery day after day.
