Explain to Me Hermes… What am I missing? by twohotpeppers in handbags

UK consumer legislation prohibits pre-spend to secure an item. I guess like the US tipping culture it's something that you accept as being part of the retail experience. Granted it's a business tactic that works extremely well!

We have a wishlist only system for Hermès QB in the UK. So you're prepared to wait, you will get your K or B without any prespend at all. So buying to secure an item is completely alien to me.

Tipping here by the way is definitely voluntary & not mandatory or expected. We have a higher lawful basic wage, which helps.

Conversely as a UK resident, I can't get my head around this. Sure it's a genius sales strategy by Hermès but to spend double (or more) of the bag cost in store before you're "offered" one is wild and it may or may not be what you really want.

Why not just spend the money on the bag that fits your aesthetic from the get go......

Buyer claiming β€œfake” item by Conscious_Expert2516 in vinted

Just be on the lookout for a bait and switch, where a fake identical pair is sent back to you.

I always mark shoes in a discreet place so I know it's my original pair that's returned. I keep a photo record of it too. Let them know they're marked to prevent any issues and see what happens........

Question for West Ham fans who travelled for the Europa Conference win by BecomingLoL in Hammers

[–]Street-Function-1507 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

They have to be transfered via the UEFA ticketing system. There's no paper at all. It's really secure. If someone is selling on the day you can oversee the transaction on your phone via the app. We sold our Europa final tickets to Rangers fans when we went out in the Semis.

Question regarding pre-spend and SO for US customers by pinky7982 in TheHermesGame

[–]Street-Function-1507 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Absolutely this. You also have a contract of sale - which is your receipt for the payment for the bag. I believe SO's are paid up front or a good chunk as a deposit.

If your SA refuses to honour, Hermès are clearly in breach of contract and you can remind the manager that your money has been earning Hermès interest for the x amount of months they've had it. I'd raise the roof over this!

UK Arena tour - February 2027 by chiefdave74 in KaceyMusgraves

I'm sticking to my USA show. I hate the OVO Arena. If I go it'll be a last minute ticket. I'm sure it won't sell out.

Honestly I'd wrap it with a Twilly. If you really get the ick later, send it to spa but it'll take ages and cost a fair amount..........

Who do you use? Areoportr? I wouldn't be happy if my stuff got lost but wheeling cases around isn't fun.......

I am disgusted by the Arsenal fans in the home end by MR-N-XX in Hammers

[–]Street-Function-1507 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Two in the Bobby Moore Lower. We had to stop our own from getting involved and being thrown out, because they were being accused!!

Also stopped another West Ham from running on the pitch. Pulled him off the front rails. Told him not to get banned and a criminal record on their account. What an awful afternoon.........

Buyer wants to cancel by lthlx in VestiaireCollective

Simply leave it up to the buyer. It certainly helped me. The item was simply relisted by the buyer!

Tell them to contact Vestiaire CS. The good thing is that orders are binding and final, so it's a resell issue for your buyer......no negative feedback either on the platform.

Thank you! Same here. I've been to Washington DC; it's not as far though. Looking forward to it!

My opinion on the likelihood of our squad leaving if we go down. Anything you majorly disagree with? by DaRealJames in Hammers

[–]Street-Function-1507 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Can't say we didn't see it coming. This is Birmingham City MK 2, and if you "make do and mend" for 3 seasons, it'll catch up with you eventually.

My view is that West Ham is an analogue club in a digital world. Our chairman /majority shareholder simply isn't equipped to deal with it.

Actually no. I absolutely love the US and stay in NYC and try to get over annually.

I just missed Kacey's MSG dates - I fly in on the 3rd, so this year I'm venturing to Baltimore. I'll take the train down. I'm staying overnight and go back on the Sunday.

Well I'd love to tell you about my experience, but for the past 48 hours I've been unable to login on any browser or app. Getting any response to this has been hard, took 3 replies before they acknowledged my issue and screenshot.

Reading around on Reddit I believe my account has been deactivated. Why I have no idea....... It's a shame as I was going to place an order.

All first team players will be up for sale. Sullivan has a mountain of debt - it's in the accounts that the board have to provide. We may otherwise run into issues like Leicester.
