2 love rings (3 diamond models) so far no gifts not that I think I deserve anything after just 2 purchases. they did royal mess up on my hubby's ring. placed the order in march, put the deposit down because he needed a bigger size. about a week ago we got an email saying the SA never actually sent the request to Paris and we needed to reply with the signed the contract. I was so mad. I went into the store the next day, the assistant manager is handling our order now. I was kinda hoping for a bottle of champagne for the mess up but nothing. she did offer to get my WG Love re-rhodium once his ring come in, not sure how much this usually costs but I wasn't impressed. if we don't get something a little special as a "sorry" i'm moving my business to the Rodeo location.
what store was this?
 
What a special treat indeed. Hope I can bring my hubby along as I'm an introvert not sure if I can handle it lol!!! Of course, if I'm ever invited.

joke aside, it'll be fun to know what they do for you!

Mine is the biggest introvert I have ever met. I was floored when he agreed to go with me. :laugh:
 
How does it taste?! (I ask because some here have said it's not very good, but this looks too lovely to eat, almost.)
Some of the chocolates taste better than others. I received the same Thanksgiving chocolates and note card from my SA at Cartier. This is the same chocolates brand that VCA uses when they give out chocolate (not surprised since Cartier and VCA are owned by the same parent company).

I made my first Cartier purchase today (Love necklace), and didn’t get any SA gifts… Maybe I needed to make a larger purchase? Or perhaps SA’s at certain stores are more generous? Regardless, I’m still disappointed regardless, though maybe this is totally normal.

Hopefully, you are enjoying your Love necklace, as that was the real purpose of your going to the boutique. As for free gift it depends on the store, and on the sales person. Also, it seems like the more one purchases/spends the more gifts one receives and the more valuable the gifts tend to be. I think SAs giving gifts with a first purchase tend to be rare, or it would probably have to be a very large first purchase.

Yes, it was me. Probably the chocolate worth most just to look at :biggrin:

It's so individual. As a tendency Europe is more "gifted" than the US. At VCA I received a lot of gifts even without buying anything - and I still did not purchase from them.
