Global Hermes Profile

I would like to share some information I received about Istanbul.

Paris sees Istanbul, but Istanbul doesn't see Paris's profile. Currently, globalization efforts are ongoing. They are unsure if this situation will change for Istanbul as a result.

Additionally, if you have a bag waiting for approval in Paris (like SO), you cannot add it to your wish list in another country.
 
Hermes can basically see how many QBs are purchased, it might not be at every single (smaller) store worldwide yet, it might depend on SA seniority and level of access to records and ultimately it depends on whether the store wants to enforce it strictly. The last depends on strength of relationship, tenure and unfortunately prespend as well.
Paris can definitely see global QB purchased each year. As I said it depends on whether they want to enforce it.
I would personally not place a wish for the same specs across 3 stores. Imagine if they do offer them to you. Two, let alone 3 multiples of the same bag is highly likely to raise red flags.
Just my personal advice.
My friend did end up with more than one of the same bag when she started shopping, she had Jay Ahr paint one. Now she only gets the latest blue box bags and exotics, so she doesn't take two of the same anymore 😅.

If a person is spending 7 figures, I don’t think they care. If she would be limited to 2 bags, she would spend $50-100k max.
 
Update: If you are in the US, here is what your account will look like for "KB count."

It gives KB, KB n-1, and KB n-2.

I honestly don't know what KB n-1 and KB n-2 mean. I was speculating that these are "1 year ago" and "2 years ago," respectively, because I only got 1 QB each in calendar years 2023 and 2024 in the US.

My KB is 0 because I've never got any QB in the US this year (prior to the SO I picked up today). So, it would be 1 since I just picked up my SO.

Also, I learned that my US and European accounts can never be linked if the names are not matched. For example, my French account has my full legal name as appeared in my passport. In the US account, however, my first name is completely dropped and the name I go by is different. (For example, if my middle name is Thomas, I go by Thom in the US account.) So, I realized that I wouldn't need to worry about this. (I wouldn't be bothered about this anymore since I am done in the US anyway...)

I hope this is helpful. (Also, I am happy to hear about OPs' comments/thoughts.)

Thank you for sharing! I’m intrigued! There’s a symbol with a dollar bill and pie chart- I wonder if this is “prespend” broken down to metiers? There’s also a symbol with the H and circle. What does it all mean?? :lol:

It’s surprising they use name as a mechanism to match profiles for this very reason (especially w/women changing their last name) rather than email address which tends to remain static.

That's so interesting! Thanks for sharing.

I'm curious about the two lines with the $ amounts: is the top supposed to $'s spent for the year, or spending done between KB offers? And maybe the bottom one is total $'s spent with Hermès (or that particular store) from Day 1 until today?
