I got a B30 black clemence in silver hardware today at Umeda Hankyu at around 4:30. I just walked-in and asked and was told one Birkin just came in.

Hi, did you just ask a random sale? or did you kind of pick a sale that you think it's more likely to offer? was it from a young or older SA? debating which type is more like to offer B/K. Thanks.
 
Daimaru Sapporo:

Jaw-dropping...loads of bags on display. bolides assorted colours & sizes, Lindy etoupe, blu lin, gold, picotins, tool box, double sens, small jypsies bougainvillea , blue jeans, rouge casague.

and a gold birkin & noir kelly :biggrin:

I recently bought a 30 size birkin of Blue Atoll colour in Hermes Sapporo Daimaru so lucky omg and bought also a bolide 27 in that store
 
Do you think knowing the language ( Japanese) is essential to get a B or K ?

I don't think so and for some H stores where it's located inside a bigger dept store, some provide an interpreter service. This I find helpful when you're trying to be more specific with what you want eg if you only wanted a particular color way

Hi all,
I will be traveling to Tokyo in November and wanted to know if it's hard to come by a Herbag PM and does anyone know the price of it? As its so hard to get at H locally.
TIA! :)

Got 2 birkins from the Ginza store during my last few trips, don't have to wear anything H related, just got to be lucky!
If they have birkins/kellys they will usually just sell it to you, especially in the Ginza store :-)
 
Last week, H Isetan Shinjuku had the following bags on the shelves. Was surprised to see the numerous Lindy especially the 26 (notably the Rouge Granet) which are rare due to popularity with the locals and other Asian tourists (both L26 were gone by the next day either sold or kept in the back). They also had several Glycine bags (from behind). Did not check for B/K/C.

Ginza also had a L26 in Gris Mouette and several ostrich bags on the shelves. Seems there are more inventory around due to the strong Yen and considerably less PRC tourists.
