Hey all - apologies for the simultaneously naive and direct question but just wanted to ask...now the waitlist system appears to be the prevailing system, does it mean that all quota bags go via the wishlist allocation system or are there clients out there who are still able to get those bags via a direct relationship with an SA pulling the strings for them. I assumed the latter but curiosity and need for clarity and closure are encouraging me to ask the question :blush:

All Wishlist (unless they have the item upon asking) and not just quota bags.

I stopped by the Royal Exchange boutique last week. Great customer service in a space smaller than some peoples’ closets.

Yes I hear lots of good things about the staff in that shop.
I've never been (off the beaten track for me) But I gather its mainly silks and smaller items for city workers to pick up for gifts etc.
I dont think there's many resident locals in that neighbourhood.

You'd be surprised by some of the lovely offers that come out of RE!

At the H at Heathrow, I was offered a 24/24 just while looking for another twilly that might complement the one I purchased at RE for the wife. I politely declined but the SA started to mention how poor the stock was so figured she would offer it as they hardly get any bags anymore.

b k and c bags are wishlist the rest you can ask for them and having a relationship with a good SA helps!

Hi there— wondering if something has happened to Sloane at boutique where a few great employees have left. Really gutted bc they were just awesome!!

I wonder if it is related to new management there or simply Covid career changes which are happening in many retail boutiques. The wonderful director who had been there many years moved back to France just before the pandemic.
