I don’t agree with that. I was told I would get it 100% with the first wave and still there is a list to be submitted to Paris. Point is I don’t think if they talk about Paris or lists it’s not necessarily discouraging.
Every year they use scare tactics to seemingly intimidate customers and hype the product and its scarcity. It happens literally every year. Last year was the first year that I recall where there actually was true scarcity (although even that is debatable - most customers seemed to eventually be able to track one down - most, not all). So I think it's absolutely true that saying names need to be submitted to Paris is another intimidation measure with questionable truth (as a customer, I'm sure there's no way of actually verifying the truth of the statement).

I am wondering......What does "saying names" to Paris have anything to do with the Holiday Pendant? Does Paris want to see if the name is on their list? Does Van Cleef want to look at a person's spend history to see if they are qualified to own a holiday pendant? I wish I could say what I actually think is going on but too much is at risk right now.

I'm not French but having worked in the EU for several years, that's the most un-French way to do things. Doubtful anyone at VCA HQ would bother to look at any names nor care enough to spend their days deciding if Mary from Austin Tx is good enough to purchase a holiday pendant. :lol:

Right?? Well said! I’d venture to guess that 90% of the customers buying the HP are way off of headquarter’s radar.

VCA's Santa era: making a list, checking it twice, who's naughty or nice for a holiday pendant. :biggrin:
