No purchases during this time. Just a historical client, and I’ve just been lucky I guess.Wow she is stunning!! May I know if you have made a lot of purchase during these 10 weeks? It is quite a short period of wait when compared to some of us!

Congrats!! Any interesting bag available at the store such as Evelyne, Picotin, or Herbag? Thanks
Sorry, but I was literally on a mission when I got to the boutique. I arrived there with about an hour to closing, and I was just waiting with bated breath to see the Birkin. I was paranoid that they ended up selling it to someone else haha!
I was surprised that they didn’t take me to a separate room to show me the bag, so I had an audience while viewing it.
I don't like to intrude.
Before Covid, I used to see you at events - always looking wonderful. I can recognise members from their bags and accessories LOL.
Bond Street one has in different sizes bags to try.
Thanks guys! Would you say it’s frowned upon if you go in and try the tester bags and don’t actually end up purchasing something?Boutiques have tester bags but not in all leathers or all sizes. Maybe visit Harrods and Cadogan Place as they are within walking distance of each other so you might be able to try on various options in one go.
Omg this is such a gorgeous bag - love the colour!I received an offer on Friday and I went to view it today.

No it’s absolutely fine! They expect that you’d want to try out the different sizes before committing to one.Thanks guys! Would you say it’s frowned upon if you go in and try the tester bags and don’t actually end up purchasing something?

My Kelly is in vert cypres, it’s a really versatile colour, congratulations on your B!No it’s absolutely fine! They expect that you’d want to try out the different sizes before committing to one.
Thank you! It wasn’t a colour I had specifically included in my wishlist but I had kept it pretty open in terms of shades, and I recalled mentioning that if it was green, I’d want something evocatively alpine, and I think this fits perfectly!
i did try the tester bags and not buying anything afterThanks guys! Would you say it’s frowned upon if you go in and try the tester bags and don’t actually end up purchasing something?

I think it might be more convenient than lugging the stuff around as the boutique arranges everything. of course you may be charged customs and state sales tax, but the idea is not to be tax free but to pay the tax where you reside. DHL does not always charge even if the amount is larger than the first 800 USD exemption IDKW. Since prices are somewhat harmonized for the brands I purchase, I do tend to stick to my home boutique as easier though.Is this a new rule? The process used to be easy (at least at LHR). You line up, show your purchased goods (if asked), and you’d get the refund within 2-3 weeks.
Shipping it to home address is risky![]()

Thank you so much. I didn’t actually pre-spend anything during the period, hence the surprise. I just went in and put my name down with the specific requests and out of the blue on Friday, I got the lovely email.Thanks for sharing congratulations,l submitted my wish in September to .Can l ask which boutique and did you pre spend much before your offer
