Hermes boutiques in London

If you have read this thread, you would see that 'tourists' seem to do well at Selfridges

Harrods is probably the most competitive place - due to sheer footfall. Not sure if I have seen any reports of a wishlist birkin/ Kelly being granted there. I may be wrong so feel free to correct. You may have better luck at one of the other boutiques. not sure whether the wishlist system is for UK residents or open to anyone (?)

It’s certainly not impossible and doesn’t have to take months. I have a friend who got offered one after 1 month of mentioning interest at NBS. So stock does exist, it really depends on what SA you meet / desk with.
Sounds good but I live up north and we have nothing up here, I rarely go down to London, i am next due to go in September.
 
Hello - I’ve had a wish list for quite a while now (just put through my 3rd one and decided to try my luck in the Sloane Sq shop). Admittedly, I could have been spending more time in the shop while my wish list was outstanding as opposed to just a couple of times. The SA at Sloane Sq told me something interesting: that SAs need to submit every wish list to a central team who has a view of all the wishes and who will be allocating them based on the customers who have been waiting to get a bag for the longest time. So given I was at my 3rd wish, he said I would be more likely to get a bag.

Wondering if others have heard a similar message from London SAs?
Thank you! :)

Thank you! :smile:
I haven't heard this but then again I dont really ask my SA about the why's and how's of the list.
 
You can make it straightaway, but when it gets fulfilled is a different matter.
Hi, following this! I did get a B30 about two weeks ago and a canvas Kelly caught my eye. I was chatting with my SA and he panicked and really almost begged me not to start a wishlist saying it is currently closed. My feeling is that it will open later again in the year. For now, just enjoying my B30!

So noone can make a wish at all? Is this true for all the London stores?
