It doesn’t matter who amends the wishlis, the original SA who created it is always named there (and will be cc’d in the email when the SM contacts you with a bag offer). Re. whether the SA can actually ‘work on getting the bag for you’ I’m not sure as from what I’ve seen the SM decides which client to allocate which bag to and when, and the SA is not involved at all (rather than SA proposing & SM approving like in other countries).
I agree, it doesn’t seems like SAs in london really have a say in what bag you can get. They are more there to act as a point of contact for other items you want to purchase in order to build up a purchase history with a particular store. And also for ALC if they choose to offer it to you.
 
I probably didn’t explain it clearly. My usual SA got me the bags for me previously, but now I created a new wish list with someone I never dealt with before. So you mean it will still be the SA who created my account a few years ago that will be Cced in the email from the SM? I assume things have changed during lockdown, because i never received email from Store manager in the past, it was my SA who emailed me and said he had something for me.
Ah Ok so if this time you cancelled the wishlist your regular SA had created and set up a new one with the SA that helped you on the day (say, to change from a B to a K), then the SA that helped on the day will be named there and cc’d in the SM email. When you said your regular SA had emailed you in the past to offer quota bags, was this before the wishlist system? And which boutique is this if I may ask? It might make a difference.

No it’s not before the wish list system was created. Last time he emailed me was just before the first lockdown so wasn’t that long time ago.
I’m not sure if it’s worth it to change the wish list back to under my usual SA because I much prefer dealing with him rather than the new one who put down the wish list for me as the new one (although I’ve seen him many times in store so he must be experienced) doesn’t seem to know much about the RTW which I was keen and couldn’t give me any advice. But like you said, if it’s just down to the SM to allocate and SA can’t do much about it other than ALC, then I probably shouldn’t bother and just keep on dealing with the previous SA who knows my style well.

Hi everyone,l been huge Chanel lover ,but recently l start dipping my toes in Hermes

Do you mind sharing your experience at the London Hermes stores?

I know there is a wish list system. Has anyone got offered a B/K within the 8 months period?
Did you have to pre-spend a lot? Was your wish fulfilled?

As previously mentioned on the forum everyones experience is very different.
Some get offers quickly with little pre-spend others can wait a lot longer although regular shoppers
Best advice is (from a veteran lover of Hermes) buy what you love, enjoy shopping and see what happens.
If all you want is a quota bag have you considered the preloved market?

No l haven’t ,l would never pay 2-3 retail price for used bag plus l won’t have retail shopping experience ,hopefully l will be offered Birkin at some point .Is it true that Many people get offered these quota bags during Xmas season ?
 
Perhaps next time you meet an SA that you feel you click with, ask them for their card and arrange future appointments directly?
Yes l asked 2 sa cards and l been shopping all the time as That same store ,so first time l forget to ask sa card ,second time l went in l ask lady card and email her and got automotive response (l am away until may 21 th so contact boutique directly) and third time l went in l made bigger purchase ,get taking to sa and ask his card ,once l come home l email him thanking him for serving me That day and l got no response back ,so really confused and sad
