It will depend if these VVIPs with higher spends decline the HP pendant. My guess, is that the majority will decline. Think about what these VVIPs are purchasing, they are not buying the lower ticket items but are purchasing high jewelry or higher ticket items to accumulate this #.

I've got to say I was getting hyped on a potential VCA moss green pendant 
. This is so close to Tiffany it's hard to not see it.

Was advise minimum $250k purchase history in order to buy that particular necklace.
My SA just reached to me to say she had one allocated for me even though I hadn’t inquired about the HP. Haven’t spent anything this year because I was eyeing a clovers bracelet
I know exactly which one you mean. It makes me so angry, but this is precisely the behavior VCA is encouraging. Selling to "loyal" clients who spend a lot because they turn around and sell everything at a profit. I bought from this particular reseller in the past but will never do so again realizing that they are nothing more than a reseller who charges hefty premiums for things other people aren't lucky enough to get in the boutiques. I think they had no fewer than 3 or 4 holiday pendants for sale over the course of the holiday season last year.
I was offered this piece and I did not spend this amount.
Not sure. Apparently someone spent over a million dollars in Europe this summer and they are not on the priority list… My SA said they are good customers but the store is giving a hard time to whoever spent money in Europe elsewhere. This is not what I call loyalty. It’s competition between stores. Really bad for the brand image!
Wait what? Is this for the US? I vividly recalled my friend purchased that butterfly necklace (with diamond center) for his wife as a birthday gift since she told him she wanted a necklace from VCA, but didn't specify which model/color. He just stopped by the boutique as new client and the SA recommended & sold him that butterfly necklace, saying she'll definitely love it. Turned out she hated it.
I was actually able to buy that turquoise butterfly on the EU online store for pickup at Paris Vendome location. Ive seen it since then on various countries’ websites too.Wait what?

Also to keep on topic with HP, I was offered it and will be going in early next week to pick it up at SCP!
I really wonder if there will be more waves of the HP coming out and all of this hush hush VIP list is going to look so ridiculous in hindsight.
It’s very possible and I hope they continue making more. I got my 2021 HP early this year and it made me so so happy to not have to pay a premium and to buy directly from boutique. But I wonder if they only have a certain number of pendants made this year since porcelain is man made (and therefore maybe it’s by a contracted amount), whereas for HPs with natural stones, they can continue to make more until they run out of the raw materials that they already have sourced.
But I am assuming VCA doesn’t make them in house, but from the website it sounds like they do?

It's funny how in limiting the supply & and creating a list they clearly upset a lot of VIPs by making them feel not cherished. However, if they release more, the people who "made the cut" might feel less special and VIP. I'm curious to see what they will do. I'm guessing the boutiques are getting quite a few complaints as well. I feel bad for the SAs, my SA sounded super stressed about the situation when I spoke to them.
I heard crickets from mine.
