This thread is NOT a chat thread.

We have had so many reports about OT unrelated topics that have nothing to do with Singapore H stores.

If you are not writing on something pointedly pertaining to a Singapore store (only) please post in the appropriate thread(s)

Thanks for ur responses! Yes, she logs in my pref as well as my wishlist & I cn see it on her phone as she shows me... bt she doesn't mention anything abt getting approval frm SM. Thinking abt stopping my buying like what @smoothsailor suggested, bt also nt rly sure wht to say to nudge my SA to let her knw I am waiting for a QB since she nvr say the prespend thing, I also js kno abt it cuz of this forum/thread

How about sending SA a text to check on the status of your QB? Just feign ignorance and assume she did put in the request.

Just say it as it is. But if you really wanna play coy you can say something like “I was hoping to get a B25 by Christmas as my Christmas present. You’ll make my wish come true right?!?” or “do you think I should get a Kelly or Birkin as my first QB”. Be shameless! Do it and share back with us!

Could it be the colours you choose are popular hence the waiting time?

hi hi,
1. its ok to set up a profile with Store A and later you decide to continue with Store B with same profile. usually no repercussions. better to catch this early than late
2. do note online purchase do not count towards your prespend

Hi hi, I see. Thank you so much!

Hi,

I will be transitting through Singapore soon. How are the SA at the airport? If there were bags on display not reserved, the SA openly tells you to spend before letting you take it off the shelves?

Talk of spending is taboo at my home store. So just want to know the custom. Thank you

I was pretty straight forward with the SA! You can ask for availability and ask for required spending at least at Singapore's Transit, based on my previous encounters.

Hi ladies,
I am new to H journey and thank you all for your trove of sharings and advice here.
I would like to seek your opinions with regards to my starting H journey. A mistake I felt I had made was reading this thread after I visited 1 of the stores for the first time some time back whereby the SA set up my profile for me. At that point in time, I was clueless and did not know the consequences of setting up a profile. During that visit, I only purchased a small item as the other two I was looking for (not bags) were not available which I reckoned the reason for no namecard given to me. I suppose I do not have any r/s with this SA/store...
If I make an online purchase to be pick up, I would like to seek your advice what should I do if I find smt I like there, should and do I purchase it under my profile set up at the other store? What is the consequences in terms of my journey? Will it have any repercussion? (as in starting a r/s w an SA?)
TIA for your time reading this and reply if any.

For online purchases; I have a few encounter with H stores. Usually the SAs are not very keen on assisting unless you are purchasing something else in store! It is sort of understandable as the time spent on customers via online purchases will not count towards their commission.

Hi ladies, I just got a pair of orans recently. Read somewhere last year before that some of you will bring your new shoes to do vibram soles (hope I got the name right)

Can you recommend where to do the vibram soles and roughly what’s the cost like?

Thank you!

I would definitely do that before even wearing them. I like to fully cover the soles, so it costs slightly more. Can't remember how much exactly. I think around $50? Few ladies here shared Master Fix at Paragon. I usually go to the one in ION. No complaints so far

Hi. I brought my H sandals to Russell Key & Shoe at Singpost Centre (Paya Lebar).
He quoted $30+ for the front sole only, or $50+ for front and back. He used Vibram. I decided to get the front and back done as I knew I would wear this pair quite often. So far so good.

I brought it to one raffles place shop name call sole-mann on the 5th floor. I rmb its $33 for front and back. Quite affordable compare to mister mint or master fix. and the brand is also vibram.

Leather soles do not have much grip and can be quite slippery except on carpets/rough floors. In order to prolong and get more wears out of our Hermes footwear with leather soles, it’s better to vibram or add another sole on them.
