I got my gold heart a few weeks back, but I was still waiting for the amarante. As you may recall, some of the Canadian stores jumped the gun and sold a few pieces early. They said that the rest were going to only be sold starting on the release date, and boy did they mean it!
I was at Yorkdale this evening and had just left the LV boutique in Holt Renfrew after purchasing a new inclusion Speedy, when my cell phone rang. It was my daughter. She called to tell me that coincidently the LV at Yorkdale had JUST called to tell me that my amarante heart was in and wanted to confirm that I still wanted it. So, my DD thought to call me and let me know. Well for gooodness sakes!
So, I high-tailed it back into the store and there on the counter was the wait-list book open and my name at the top of the list! So I pointed to my name and said, 'that's me!'. The astonished SA, said, 'but I just left you a message'. lol!
Anyway I said that I since I was there anyway, I'd like to pick up my heart now. I also explained that I live a hour away and that since we are expecting a horrendous snow storm tomorrow, it would just make sense that I pick it up this evening. WELL......no go. Not a chance. No amount of begging or pleading would get them to budge. I was told absolutely not, I could not purchase it until Friday morning at the earliest.
I did manage convince her to let me just hold it. Reluctantly, she went in the back and got it and I got to hold it for a whole 30 seconds. That's it, give it back. Out the door I went, no heart in hand for me.
I guess I'll just have to wait until we dig out from the storm.

My goodness...they should take into consideration that you're the FIRST on the waitlist. *Cyndee*....I feel for you, just hang in there!
