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)

Every week is ok…but u got to make it sound not so intense.

I agree. Not so intense. Actually I don't advise every week. Maybe 2-3. Try to relax. Shopping is meant to be enjoyable.

How do y’all usually follow up? Just ask any updates on the bag? I only started following up after 3 months only when I go to the boutique which is like close to once a month but since March onwards every 2 weeks.

Agee with @vpg that you might want to have this conversation with your SA to manage expectations.

Based on what you’ve described of your SA, my gut sense is to trust her that she will deliver. Isn’t it better to wait for a good offer for your 1st QB? As for subsequent offers in 2023 or 2024, that’s a conversation to be had.

Thank you! I will have the conversation when I collect my qb. I’m scared I risk it if the conversation gets ugly…

Make jokes…. “Where is the bag to match this twilly?”

According to my SA, men's bag is not counted towards pre-spend and it also takes up 1 non-QB. Men's SLG is counted towards pre-spend, hope this helps.

Thank you

I don't even see my SA that often now because I am currently based abroad. Just mention it after 3-4 months and otherwise I just shop for other things normally when I am back in town. I think the difference here is I am in no rush at all by now, as I have been a client for quite a long time. Good luck!

Have anyone received the invitation for Hermes Fit? So excited!

Wasn’t aware of this event until my SA informed and reminded me to register just now.

Anyway the event is open to public and registration can be done on Hermes SG website. You can also google “HermesFit Singapore” and the registration link should show.
Event is 14 April to 23 April at 16 Orchard Rd.
Have fun!

Yah! My first bag so very anxious. Thanks!!

They mentioned “Each guest is entitled to sign up for one class only.”

Any idea if it’s once for each type of class or can only register for one type of class?

How do you know your QB has been approved or rejected? Will your SA tell you upfront?

Curious to know as well. I’m only asked to submit my request and it was acknowledged. I take it as “now I start waiting”.

Acknowledge does not mean approved. Sometimes they can hint to you to continue to buy to have a chance based on your request. Sometimes they may not hint to you so openly and just wait for you to hit the magic number before they actually ask for approval for your bag request.

Maybe I add some background. SA says I’m eligible for B or K and told me the estimated wait time. Think about which colour combo and to let her know. She acknowledges after I provided my preferences. Also my SA has once informed on a separate occasion that I don’t need to follow up once she has confirmed she has put in a request. She will let me know when it arrives. And she did. So I respect that and I didn’t want bother her.

I see. The context is important. Sounds like it has been approved. May your bag comes soon!

Thank you ! Long wait but will enjoy the journey and always eager to shop for other items. Of course I won’t deny the eagerness to ask about the “bag” but I stop myself since timeline already being given upfront. If it arrives earlier it’s a bonus.

I had this conversation before few months into the wait when I feel I have gathered enough pre-spend for 2nd qb based on self calculation assuming 1:1.x
I had thought I could wait for 2 qb concurrently and was told by my SA that there has to be some gap between collection and next submission. Now that the numbers seem to be getting larger as I keep buying things I really love, I’m too scared to think about it or bring up this conversation again but I told myself to be prepared to change boutique if I’ve been played out eventually (ie. my prespend cannot be used for next qb) because I will be extremely upset and disappointed.
My SA has been very good to me, helping to order things I like and bringing out all the beautiful and popular items not on display without me requesting for them. Prompt reply to messages too.
I also wonder if my 1st qb took so long because I got 3 non qb in beautiful colours within a relatively short period, one of which was after my qb got approved.
As the days go by I get paranoid from time to time as I see everyone else collect their bag. How long did you guys took for your bag to arrive?

Based on what you’ve described, you’ve spent enough for 3 QBs and counting, that’s already 60k+, and 3 non quota bags, all within 6 months so you’ve spent nearly $100k?

I’m sure your lovely Sa will be happy to continue selling you more if you show no signs of stopping. Unless you’re able to continue to splurge at this amount and speed I think you should definitely slow down until at least you have sight of the first bag.
