A TPF Meetup leads to a Reveal

Beautiful, and what a wonderful story!

Thank you!

What a wonderful experience - your sincerity as a customer has paid off. And it's great to have been at a Tpf outing it really is a lot of fun.

Thank you! I've found that SA's definitely recognize who loves the brand and who just wants B's or K's.

Oh the power of a bunch of PFers!!! Honey, I am beyond thrilled for you. This girl, veining, ghw are the absolute mind-blowing combination of the season. Congratulations!!!

Thank you so much! There is power in the purse forums. I love the veining also - I couldn't be happier with this combo.

You so well deserve this beauty. Glad hermes recognizes a true Hermes fan by heart. Ohh this color combo, I can only dream. Carry your Birkin in the best of health!

Thank you so much for your kid words!

WOW WOW WOW!!!!! Gorgeous! That is my grail bag! Please post lots of modeling pictures!!!!

I definitely will though I admit to being scared to carry her. It has been pouring all week so waiting for a good day to take her out.

beautiful~

Thank you!
 
She is gorgeous (I adore those veins, and the colour is incredible!) and it makes me so happy that there is such a wonderful story to go with it. Also, early(?) happy birthday!

Thank you very much for the kind words and the birthday wishes!! LOL - my bday is actually not until August but I had been looking early so I could save up and this just happened. I still consider it my big present for my big bday!


Congratulations! It's just beautiful and I love the story behind it, which makes it that much more special. Hopefully one day (soon) one will come my way!

Thank you!! Your day will come - sending good vibes your way!

Gorgeous bag, congrats.

Thank you Suzie! I'm super excited about my first new bag from H!
 
Jyyanks, I appreciate your good vibes they certainly worked! As you know my dream bag came to me earlier today! Congratulations to us both!

Congrats again! I'm so happy for you.

Wow!!! I am soooo happy for you! It happened to such a lovely person! Congrats-- it is so gorgeous! Stunning with the GHW!!!

aww - thanks for the kind words OhManolo! :blush: You are so kind!
 
I'm so excited to share this story with all of you. It's long and I'm excited so bear with me!

Our NYC meet up was this past Tuesday arranged by the lovely VigeeLebrun & Ferrip. I met up with old friends (arabesques, lilneko69, ferrip), celebrated a birthday (ferrip), and met some new friends (hermesnuttynut, kittys, lulilu, lamborghinigirl).

During lunch, I mentioned that I wanted to treat myself to my first new bag for an upcoming big birthday. I wasn't sure how to score the bag I wanted since I shop from different SA's and I haven't really "met a quota" with any of them. Everyone at the table was giving me helpful hints and offered to help in any way possible.

After a scrumptious lunch followed by chocolate molten cake, the crew headed to Hermes Madison. We all met up with our various SA's and engaged in conversation. Lamborghinigirl was helping me pick out a Victoria which was a lovely Turquoise color but not the color I was looking for. My SA told me that they had new stock coming in and if I could come back tomorrow, he may have a bag in the color I was interested in. I was originally fixated on BE (not available) but the lovely tpf'ers reminded me that Anemone was also a great option.

Next day, I head back to the store and am escorted into a room. At this point, I'm confused as to why I'm sitting behind glass doors to be presented with a Victoria. My SA comes out with a big box and proceeds to present me with a 35 Birkin w/GHW!!! I was utterly speechless. After I found my voice, I asked him "Are you sure this is for me?" His reply was that he wanted to surprise me because I come in all the time, am pleasant to everyone, show a genuine interest in the brand and have always asked to see other bags and never a B or a K.

I truly believe that my tpf friends gave me some much needed luck and I would not have been offered the bag had it not been for going to H on that fateful day with them. Without further adieu, here she is......not sure what leather it is, but I'm soooo excited and happy! Sorry for the long post.
What a lovely story! I'm so happy for you...and what a darling SA. The B is totally amazing...can't wait to see pics of it in action.
