What bags have you turned down in 2006?

#17
Birkins in brown, orange, green, raisin, rouge H, bleu jean, black (vache liegee)
Kelly in etoupe (actually the SAs turned it down for me, they just said it didn't work for me)
Kelly in barenia (retourne, which I don't like because when it's filled the bag looks lumpy)
Trim in barenia/toile
Trim in epsom
Anything in epsom, vache liegee, chevre, togo, and clemence
 
#18
only one -- rouge H birkin in box, because I wanted clemence, which I got a few weeks later.
(like some of you, I am now rethinking the decision, but there are future birkins in box to consider, LOL)
 
#19
Two BJ Kellys in Togo, one a 28cm and one a 32cm - the 28cm was offered to me when I wanted a 32cm, then I got the Birkin instead. MOnths later, when the 32 cm was offered to me, I realized a need some neutrals and no more colored bags for awhile.

But they sure were beautiful!

Plume Elan GM in Black Epson - Epson gives me the heebie-jeebies,
Brique 30cm Birkin in VL - Color not for me and VL is another leather I'm not fond of,
Two 32cm Black Box Kelly's - Fell in love with Caramel Chevre instead!
Rouge H Togo Evelyn - Looked too much like an ageing college student,
Fabulous Black Box Square-ish Bag I can't remember the name of but I was so, so tempted because it was gorgeous - couldn't think of enough places to use it,
Black Croc Diamond Birkin - just doesn't fit my lifestyle at the moment.......dang it (it'd go so well with my Birkinstocks too)
 
#21
GM Paris-Bombay in black VL with gold chevre interior -- just too big
30 cm Birkin in Blue Jean togo - not my color
27 cm Bolide in Rouge Vif ostrich - waiting for a saffron ostrich
Mini Constance in cream lizard -- kicking myself over that one
 
#22
GM Paris-Bombay in epsom - am not an epsom fan (as I wasn't a courchevel fan)
35 cm Rouge Garance Birkin in Togo - already have a rouge vif Birkin
It always feels bad (to me anyway) to turn down Birkins...not that it happens all that often, but still...
 
#23
35 Rouge Garance Birkin- not my color
30 Black epsom birkin- epsom!
40 etoupe birkin-too big
37 black trim-too open
Paris-Bombay GM-too big
30 etoupe birkin-too small
32 brick plume-not my color
35 potiron kelly-not my color
i figured out that i love big bags but it has to be soft leather and the right color..i look best with neutral colors

Just wondering what bags have you ladies turned down from Hermes (excluding resellers and eBay) this year and why? I guess I'll start first, but my list is pretty short and they are all from DIFFERENT stores.

Orange Ostrich Birkin 30cm - Reason: not fuchsia ostrich
Cobalt Blue Ostrich HAC 28cm - Reason: ex-SA said I couldn't buy my dream bag if I bought this one
Black Glazed Porosus Diamond Birkin 35cm - Reason: not fuchsia and too expensive (don't know why they bothered to ask)
Gold Togo Birkin 30cm - Reason: not fuchsia ostrich
Fuchsia Ostrich Retourne Kelly 28cm - Reason: retourne
Fuchsia Ostrich Sellier Kelly 32cm - Reason: too big
Fuchsia Ostrich Sellier Kelly 25cm - Reason: too small
Fuchsia Ostrich Trim 37cm - Reason: too big
Fuchsia Ostrich Trim 24cm - Reason: too small
Fuchsia Ostrich Bolide 27cm - Reason: too small
Fuchsia Ostrich Bolide 31cm - Reason: sat on the shelf for over a year and not in shrinkwrap, made me paranoid
Rouge Vif Ostrich Bolide 31cm - Reason: not fuchsia ostrich
Violet Shiny Lizard JPG Kelly Clutch - Reason: not fuchsia lizard
Ficelle Shiny Lizard JPG Kelly Clutch - Reason: not fuchsia lizard
Beige Shiny Lizard Sellier Kelly 25cm - Reason: not fuchsia lizard and too small
Fuchsia Lizard Mini Constance - Reason: did not need a Constance
Black Box Calf Sellier Kelly 32cm - Reason: not fuchsia ostrich, and size too big

Actually, looking at this list is making me feel bad. I mean, it would seem to me that some of my SAs are at least TRYING to get something, yet I turned them down because they were exact to what I wanted ... But I can't help it, if I'm spending that much on a bag, I have to LOVE it ...

Kou! Yes you can definitely say your SA's are trying...that is some list! :nuts: I would have happily bought at least 4 bags from that list!:P
I turned down a white, and then vert anis JPG birkins...too big,
a vermillion/orange bicolor kelly...too bright
alot of various lizard bags...don't like it
and several variations on the croc/diamond birkin and kellys...do not like gems on my bags!:smile:
