Oh, gosh, I just bought the Victoria II, in Geranium.



Photos will be forthcoming, subject to rain. But I'm so thrilled with biting the bullet and going for it! :smile:

Congrats! It must be beautiful! It's fun to hear such enthusiasm when one foes for it. Yay!

I do love the Victoria and have one also. I was thinking of letting it go but your and Willowbarb's excitement makes me want to rethink it.

Thank you, ladies!

I actually got a phone call from Hermes this morning; the very nice SA explained that I can only buy two bags in a year from the website.

Since I had bought my Double Sens from them earlier this year I'm down to one, and she wanted to make sure I knew that, and didn't prefer something other than the Victoria II Geranium as my second purchase.

I'm still keen on the Victoria II as a very classic bag, which will never become dated, and I don't want to let a bright red one slip through my fingers; I can return it if I don't like it, which seems unlikely :smile: but the option is there. It can be very difficult to get a picture of the true colour, so I won't know until Monday :wondering

I got the impression that the online purchases don't count against the 'ration' of total bags I can buy in a bricks and mortar shop; can anyone correct me if I'm wrong on that?

There's always a potential problem when a manufacturer sells directly to the customer, because it cuts out the retailer's share of the profit. I think retailers wouldn't be happy if Hermes deprived them of their chance to make some money from me :nogood:

So, my fingers are crossed that on Monday I shall be doing the :happydance: and have some sunshine to take good pictures :smile:

Thank you!

This may be because I'm in England and it's a different website; I have the shops/boutiques here in London, and I can hop on the train for Paris easily enough, though the queues in Paris are so OTT that I doubt I have the stamina :smile:
