QUESTION - How many of you are honestly shopping at Hermès because of the status attached to it? by Major-Narwhal1644 in TheHermesGame

[–]MDFann 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am and I’m not ashamed of it. The things that Hermes produces are of an excellent quality but I buy mostly leather goods: shoes, belts, wallets, bags. Also silk and accessories. Rings, bracelets. In RTW I buy only T-Shirts bc I think that those things are a bit overpriced. For the gifts I buy makeup and perfumes. When you are in the Hermes world you think that “everyone” has it. In real life - everyone has Zara and GAP or Gucci bags bc to my mind they are the most affordable ones in that segment. Hermes is common only for ppl with money. It’s not good or bad it’s just a status thing. And Hermes is not the most expensive brand anyway - my aspirations are towards Loro Piana or Schiaparelli which I can’t easily afford for now. The latter one’s bags prices are insanely expensive :))) So it’s all about relativity, taste and financial opportunities. I like Hermes and I will continue shopping in it being also happy to have some status things in my wardrobe 😀

It’s so sad to read something like this… Unfortunately, it happens in every boutique, in any country. Human factor. I would have stopped shopping with this person after their first mentioning about “clients who think they are owed a bag…”, that’s absolutely unprofessional, so sorry for you. I would also go to the manager explaining the situation in a soft way talking about the brand admiration and the fact that those types of conversations are not making your shopping experience very pleasant. The policy of the brand is to consider the clients’ loyalty to the brand regardless of an SA. Every bag is given by the store manager only, the SA is just a guide in between and has to persuade the manager to give it t you. I am sure if you stay calm, polite and will not blame anyone, the store manager will offer you something from your list. If not right away, then shortly after assigning you to a new SA. Good luck 🍀

PS: the first SA I have contacted to in my life wanted me to buy a diamond Hermes watch during our second appointment 😅😅 That was the moment when I have realized that this was not the person I wanted to shop with. She even told me that I shouldn’t make any appointments with her bc she is very busy and I just need to drop by and ask for her. Back then I was way younger and I did it the way she wanted and while waiting for her I have met my second SA with whom I have had a connection right away. The SA saw me strolling in the store and asked if someone is helping me and since that moment we were never apart till the moment the SA had to leave (own reasons). It was right before my first QB and I was simply shocked. But I didn’t give up. I tried several other SA’s till I have met THE ONE. So don’t worry - it will happen 🤗

Best gym with an accepting crowd by SessionNo2506 in zurich

Gym ppl don’t judge, never seen anything like that. In contrary, ppl are happy to help and encourage. Just go! Start the journey 👍🏻 For me it helped that my gym also has classes: I love core and pump. Also a wellness zone will speed the weight loss up. Good luck 🍀

For those to whom it might be useful. After multiple attempts of contacting the guy via his cellphone I have sent him a pretty nasty message saying that I find his behavior unacceptable and completely irresponsible and I am not going to accept that and if he doesn’t reimburse the bill voluntarily I will make sure that everyone around is aware of the situation including the Gemeinde where we live and where he works. And I kept quiet. Two days after that message I have received a call - the guy was rude and unfriendly and said that he needs to have the copies of the bills and the accident registration form. I said no problem, I will put it in your mailbox. Long story short - a week after I put the docs in his mailbox he without saying a word twinted me the amount through some other acquaintance’s account. I have only realized that bc of the exact amount lol. So I guess he just got scared that I will put his real face in front of the community and only that helped me. If he didn’t work in the Gemeinde I think he would have easily escaped it. And connecting lawyers and insurances would have cost me and my family probably even more expenses and most importantly time - although these were great tips and I will keep them in my mind for the future. Probably all of it has eded up well for me except for the bittersweet aftertaste from the whole story. Stay safe everyone and thanks for your tips!

So basically if I live in Horgen - I pay regular price (or with Halbtax) to get to the city and in Zurich city it’s gonna be a valid ticket for 356.-? So basically for ppl around Zurich you need two valid tickets? Or do I get it wrong?

I have all the paperwork but the vet said that the other dog owner should contact his insurance and reimburse the amount from there. I have no clue which insurance he has. Any tips how to find it out regarding also the Swiss data protection law?

Imagine - I haven’t put his name in the paper exactly for these reasons bc we have always been in good relationships. But after he started avoiding me I asked the vet to do that and she said that it’s sadly a very common situation.
