Was at PC Hooftstraat today, not many bags. A few Evelyns, GP and Bolide I think. Over at Schiphol Airport, there's an herbag left. They sold one this morning and I managed to score 1. Only a GP and a Bolide left as well.
 
I've put my name down for a fauve or barenia CDC (or KD) with phw. I must say the SA who helped me (blonde lady) wasn't interested in helping me really (my husband was speechless)... Is there a chance thy will call me if they receive one?
 
Going to bump! I'm looking for a birkin, I'm from the Netherlands, so from what I've read I can be on the wishlist. Is this still going on or have they made any changes? How long will it normally take before you can pick up your bag
 
I was in the Bijenkorf Hermes Boutique today. I didn't saw any Kelly's or other interesting bags.

I was looking for a black ghw rivale bracelet. I ordered one in september last year but didn't hear anything from them. Today I asked if they had one in stock but they hadn't. They told me there is a HUGE waiting list for H bracelets in Amsterdam. Some people signed up for one in 2011... This seems a little exaggerated to me tbh.

Does anyone have any insight on or experience with the bracelet stock in both H stores?

I never had major problems with buying other H bracelets (in other stores and in Amsterdam) so I'm confused now. I think they've forgotten me instead of the huge waiting list story...
 
Amsterdam has very bad inventory. Not only is the bag inventory very bad, I got some very long-winded speech about how it is unfair for women to have more than one birkin, because so many women in the world are dying for just one...LOL!
 
Hi All. I'll be visiting the Amsterdam Hermes Store on PC Hoofstraat next week, looking for a wallet or other small leather item(s) for myself. I'd be happy to report back about what they had on display.

In my experience Bijenkorf Amsterdam has more bracelets than the PC store... Also more belt kits (or I got offered more there!).
I've tried on two CDC belts recently at the PC store (where they have more bags and scarves than Bijenkorf store most of the time). I've never seen a CDC there though.

I'd say go to both!! The Schiphol airport store normally has quite a good bracelets inventory! Only CDC's seem to be very very rare in Amsterdam generally! Lots of clic clac's, KDT, Rivale, be hapi and sometimes a KD.

IMO the SA's at Schiphol and Bijenkorf are very nice! PC is hit or miss... (This all IMO)
 
Hi

Today I was in contact with the Hermes store in Amsterdam. First I enquired if they have a waiting list for Kellys. He then said that you had to be a Dutch resident to order - ok fair enough.

I then enquired if they get Kelly bags into the store regularly that they put on the shelf for sale. The male SA, said "of course we do". I then went to say, "so if I come into the store it is possible to buy one". He then said "we only sell to Dutch residents". He did not say this in a nice voice or apologetic voice either but rather snooty

Is this a general policy of Hermes shops, that you have to be a resident to buy in certain countries? Has anybody non Dutch managed to buy a Kelly or Birkin there recently?

For me it is a 1,5 hour flight to Amsterdam so it is very conveniently located.
