This is not a rant, maybe more on venting my frustrations and hopefully hears some honest advice from all of you Hermes experts. Please bear with me as I just wanted to let this thing boiling inside me out to those who can understand and empathize on how I am feeling right now. I have been going to my local H store since 2010 and was lucky enough to have met a really great SA. She was very accommodating and proactive in getting all the H items that I wanted including my B. I have been very loyal to this H store mainly because I love going to my SA, she is such a sweetheart. She had a baby last year and decided to stop working for a while. I am really not happy about this unfortunate event (unfortunate for me only), but I understand her decision as I am a mother as well. So during the holidays, my DH wanted to give me something from H so he started talking to this SA who helped him in couple occasions prior to us meeting our H angel. So she knows us and sees us coming in the store purchasing items here and there. So my DH decided to ask her to look for an Evelyne in the size and color that I want. My husband couldnt keep this secret from me so he mentioned that he wanted to gift me with an Evelyne. I was ecstatic of course, so I thanked him and dreamily mentioned how much I wished they would call me for my K (which I had mentioned to my SA prior to her departure). So my DH went back to the store a few weeks later to let her know of my desire to get a K and the colors and HW that I am interested in. My first color choices were Graphite or Etain in GW, so my DH communicated this to her and the first thing she told him was it is going to take a loooong time for any Ks to come in (emphasizing the long time) which sounded to me like she just doesnt want to sell us any K. My previous SA got me my B after two weeks of me asking her (hence the reason I loved her). So that news kind of broke my heart, although I was expecting for her to say that they dont have any in the store at this moment, I just probably, wasnt prepared for the tone of impossibility in her voice. Even though I was disappointed, I still stopped by the store, a couple of times to see if they have some of the small items that I have been wanting. She was able to sell me a CDC in RC with GHW (which I absolutely loved). And this week, prior to the leather price increase, my DH came back from a long trip and stopped by the store one more time to get a Valentines Day present for me and was told that the Evelyne he asked for during the holidays is finally in, so he bought that, and of course just like any great DH, he asked about the K and received the same answer from her Its going to take a loooong time. This just breaks my heart and has been very anxious to get my K. What do you guys think, am I just over reacting about what she said and keep waiting for her to call, or should I start looking somewhere else? Somehow, I felt let down and Im seriously losing sleep over this. How long did you have to wait for your SA to call you for your items (specifically K or B)? Thanks for letting me vent.:cry:
