Just visited the store today. Wanted to see a turquoise Lindy size 26 (I didn't want to reserve it because I'm saving for another B but still tempted to check it out but someone else will be buying it on Monday :P).

Still got to enjoy their new display. Including....

What a lovely display!

However even if you wanted this Kelly - Hermes wouldn't allow you to take it. All display bags are not finished on the interior, they are purely used as display only. Sad :(
 
Does H marina mirage have any b, k or lindys? Or does one need to go to the sp store? am traveling to GC next week and staying near marina mirage.

Do you mean that you want to score a B K by walk in? or are you willing to spend some money first? I went to the Surfers Paradise this July, it was not a big store, the SA was polite but cold, she said that they don't sell B/K to walk ins, you have to have buying history to a certain amount, or spend $10,000, and they will offer to you if they have one. They didn't have any lindys either. Hope this helps.
 
Yes, but I'm realistic. 😆 I am after something in red. Either B or L. Not in a huge hurry but just wondered. I called the SF store and I found the service cold and curt. MM store was a bit more polite and helpful but still very curt. Reminds me of how it was when I first went to my local H store but now they know me and are much nicer! Seems like that's the way it works around here.... 😔

If you are after Lindy - try Hermes Au online shop. They do pop up every now and then!

Is your local store the Brisbane store? They seem to have lindys from time to time on the shelf. I've seen a few, but I suppose it's all about timing because they would be snatched up fast. I've been to all 3 QLD stores and they are very strict on who gets a b or k. I thought it would be easy to get a b or k in Brisbane because it's a smaller city, but it seems like it's actually pretty hard, as there are alot of big spenders on H in Brisbane (and lots of extremely wealthy tourists who can get their tax back).

An SA told me they actually have to be able to 'justify' offering one to a customer to H Paris. The SAs told me you will get offered a b or k the quickest if you drop alot of money on homewares, RTW or the precious jewellry. Otherwise you need a large purchasing history, over a reasonable period of time, buying mostly non-leather goods (like scarves etc). I get along with an SA in the GC store really well and she told me bluntly that regardless of how good a customer I am for H in general, unless I have a big history with THEIR store, I won't be offered anything :nogood:
 
Dropped by the Brisbane store few days ago & they still had the red lindy sitting on the shelf. Not sure about the size though but you should check it out.
Yeah based on experience it varies between which SAs are on that day. I find the surfers store a bit more friendlier than marina mirage. Having said that, I went there 2 weeks ago & DH really hit it off (discussing about watches) with an SA who was curt with us last year -she said they hardly ever get B or K's. But 2 months ago DH saw a ?bicolour Croc being offered there. I didn't get a chance to look.
Even after the "bonding sesh" she hinted that she can try & overlook the waiting list only if we buy a watch or gold/diamond jewellery. Decided not to.
Good luck on your quest! If you love Hermes products & you're in no rush, you can easily spend $10k
 
Thanks tipsyhoney. I do check occasionally but being time poor I'm not quite consistent nor vigilant enough to spot anything unfortunately. But it's alright, my local store does get RG from time to time I think. It's just easier to shop when you are on holidays that's all. 😄

No, mine is the Sydney store. But it's all good. I am just time poor so I would love to be able to take a bit more time to shop during this little break with my family. But between my original post a few days ago and now, I've picked up a jaipur lindy 30 (a bit of a rushed purchase I must say as my younger one started screaming). I wish wish wished I could take my time when I shop but the kids are only young once!

Size 30 is a best size and Rose Jaipur is a beautiful color so you made a fantastic buy, rushed purchase has become your best purchase :)
 
Thanks! They said its a 34 which is too big for me.

I do enjoy many H items and I think I've spent way more than I'd like to admit. I'm glad I enjoy all the items I've bought so it's all good. I have acquired a couple of Bs and Ks in colors I adore over the years (not as many as a lot of the members here in the forum) but I'm enjoying them everyday.

Yes indeed. I adore lindys in this size. At first I wasn't sure if jaipur is too bright for me but being the only pink offered in the lindy this season the SAs said its better to get this color first as RG will come again. Plus I've warmed to jaipur quite a bit as it has similar tones to rose lipstick... A color I can't get enough of!
