Thank you so much for the intel! I’ll be there 1 week, so I’ll definitely plan carefully.Saw lots of bleu du nord a few weeks back at Harrods (along with rouge du cœur), many with ghw. Lindys included, but 32 I think.
The wallets yes in most of those colours in NBS, and I don't see these moving as quickly as bags (have been to NBS, Selfridges and Harrods once a week for the past month or so).
The stock changes so often and all the stores see lots of traffic so I would try to budget time for a boutique and department store, say Harrods/CP or NBS/Selfridges.
Enjoy!
If you are a box leather aficionado there are a few things right now.Thank you so much for the intel! I’ll be there 1 week, so I’ll definitely plan carefully.![]()
I haven’t seen any in quite a while, but I was able to get many in the past months, so they do have it in stock.Has anyone spotted any Evelyn TPM in any store in London?
Not in the store but a few weeks ago saw it online (UK site)Has anyone spotted any Evelyn TPM in any store in London?
Are you 100% positive that the walk-ins weren’t actually local clientele?Hi everyone visiting London. Last week I saw a couple of walk-in buys. In Harrods I saw a lady beeing offered a Birkin 30 ( light brown togo) In Selfridges a young girl got offered a «to die for» epsom blue kelly 25 silver HW. I sent hubby in to Selfridges, but the male SA just laughed at him before he finished his sentence....hubby pointed out he just saw the girl beeing offered the kelly25. He then got a little uncomfortable and told him to come back the next day. Hubby went in the second day and talked to a very sweet lady. He asked for a Kelly Pochette and she said she was quite sure she had a couple. She was gone for about 10-15 minutes but came back empty handed and said she was so sorry she could not find one, and asked if he might be interested in another type of kelly? He asked for a Kelly 25 , 28 or a Kelly mini and she smiled and told him to wait a few minutes, she would love to help him get something for his wife(me lol)She was gone for a long time, but then she came back also this time empty handed......She said she only got wallets. What a disappointment! She said she would check all the stores in London and the rest of Europe( didn’t think they could see this on their computer?)...I don’t know. He was in there for like 45 minutes and she said she would do all she could to find him a Kelly. A strange experience. In the end she offered him a black 2002 20 bag with PH. £6000 for a bag I can buy online...don’t think so! Well well, anyhow they def have a lot of stock in London, but how to get them is an even bigger mistery than Paris in the old days!
I am pretty sure since they had their passports with them. The girl who got offered the Kelly was from China.Are you 100% positive that the walk-ins weren’t actually local clientele?
Yes, she could def have spent a lot of £ for all I know ♀️But she def was not a citizen or she would not have gotten a tax-refund. ( same with the lady in Harrods, also had her passport) I’m also a customer with a purchase history, but I don’t think that matters much. I’ve bought a Birkin in Paris before, and I have been offered a Constance, they never asked about my history, and I didn’t buy anything else. I think it mostly depends on who you speak to. I’ve also been offered a Birkin35, and a Birkin 30 in Norway. At that time I had no purchase history.Even a Chinese tourist could have been a regular customer who has a purchase history instead of just a walk-in, or she may have made other purchases alongside, the London stores never offer quota bags in walk-ins with zero spendings.
