You don't understand what I'm saying.
There are no waitlists at Hermes, there are no Birkins or Kellys on the website.
You don't get a bag - even after 6 months or 1 year or 5 years - just because you pay your money, wait for it, and get it.
When I said that bags are "made for specific clients" I didn't mean that they are made from scratch for a specific client, please, I'm not that stupid...
I meant that those bags are on sale ONLY when they're offered to a specific client, and NOT before, not after, not when they are available in store or locked up in private rooms of the store. They're on sale when they are offered to a client.
What I'm saying is quite simple, but I'll give you an example.
Let's say I am a customer of Hermes, I go to Hermes and they offer me a pink Birkin. I refuse it. Then I call my friend (reseller) who wants a pink Birkin, and I tell her that it's available in that store. Tell me: if my friend goes in that store 1 minute after and asks for that same bag, would they sell it to her? No, they wouldn't. They would say that the bag is not available (it is in the store but it's not available for sale until it is offered to the client) and that they don't do link selling, and bla bla bla.
