First Birkin: San Fran Or NYC...please help!

[Coldplaylover]

Please help me take the plunge...I realize since I live in the Northwest I must travel to San Francisco or New York after hopefully getting the call about a Birkin. I have spoken with an SA from each of those locations..and the SF one said maybe around Xmas. I'm not picky....I told them and I really meant it....any color in 40cm, Togo or Clemance with SP hardware. If any of you could kindly PM me any info that could help me get a Birkin and which SA you have used at either of those 2 locations I would be so grateful. Thank you in advance.

If the SF SA seems willing to get you one.. go with him/her.

You stand a better chance in NYC. SF, is jokingly referred to on here as the store-that-has-nothing. The catch is a 40cm would be easy for you to get, but they pop up only once in a while.

Can you keep your options open with both stores?

^^Uhm, Rose, I have been in both stores. SF really does have nothing.

 

[Rose]

lol! OK, NYC it is!!

A slightly off topic question HG, the travel Birkins (that they usually have at least one of at NYC) , they are 50 cm?

^^^Comes in 2 sizes, 45 and 50 cm. I see more of the 50's though.

poor SF! I wonder if they know they're the store that has nothing?

Thanks HG

yep go with NYC. That said in SF I actually saw a 40cm black Birkin on the floor once...for about 1/2 an hour and poof it was gone. So you never know...

It's kinda true....been there, and it's a lovely store with nada....zilch....nothing??? Will try again...and Look, cross your fingers, and pray with me

Thank you for your responses. The SA in SF gave me the name of a SA in NYC so I called and left a message saying that the SFSA referred him to me......have not heard back. So should I call him again or wait since I left the message late Friday?

I thought the 45 was discontinued a while back?
