Hi everyone! I'm new to Hermes and have recently been obsessed about a mini Constance. Does anyone have advice for me on starting my Hermes journey?

C18 in epsom was a quota bag for me. I am not sure for exotics. I spent about $12k which was 1:1 or slightly more. If I were to do it all over again, I will just buy from reseller cos to me it wasn’t worth using my quota or waiting for it.

Before Covid I remember C18 neutrals with ghw were selling for around $16k. Now they are around $17-$18k I think.

If you prefer to work with a Sa in store try and find someone you’re comfortable with and see he/she advise. Mine told me you can get B, K and C in a year but all are quota bags.

This is similar to what my SA told me, 1:1 spend still required for constances.

Agree with @Daosabao and @moilesmots . That’s what I understood from my SA

Hello! Has anyone bought a mini Kelly bracelet so far? If so, would you mind sharing your review? :smile:

I bought one over the weekend. Rose Mexico in RGHW. Compared to the Kelly double tour, I find this daintier and looks nicer to stacked with other bracelets. I like the smaller turnlock. With KDT, I find it looks nice on its own without stacking. Im one who like stacking my bracelets so I do like this version

Since this relationship is still new, how about dropping by another time to look for a different SA at Liat if you didn’t have good experience at Taka or MBS? Personally I like MBS as it’s nice and quiet. Takashimaya is too busy and crowded for my liking.

I had a nice Sa before and she left due to the pressures of a retail sales job. I think as you get more serious you probably have to find out if a nice Sa is also able to get you the bags u want.

For many of us here, it’s really chance and trial and error. Look around, visit the stores again and I hope you find a nice and good Sa :smile:

My current Sa is hardly what I call nice, very poor attitude and service and she will make sure I spend in order to get the bag I want and is only ‘nice’ when I do. Why I still take her nonsense is because I am still able to get the bags I want. Although I’m a few years in this game, to be honest I am also looking for a good Sa who is nice as well. A lousy Sa can really sour the in-store experience which I still value.

However I won’t hesitate to buy the bag I want from reseller. Probably not now as the prices are too high, but I have done so before and I felt really happy to be able to get what I want with no waiting and no drama.

I totally agree. A nice SA who can get you what you want will be fantastic. I shop at MBS. So far, I really like my SA and the overall shopping experience at MBS.

Hi everyone, how do we get a special order in Singapore? I’m thinking about a certain colour combination and leather which is not offered usually. I’m sorry if this has already been covered. Any advice is appreciated. Thank you!!

Dont think there is a specific way to get a special order besides spending and spending big (basically special orders are for vips)

Hi, anyone has a nice SA to recommend? I want to get a mini evelyne and went to the stores as they did not want to reveal through phone calls but the SA that attended to me did not want to put me on the waiting list and kept pushing me to get the mini picotin instead. Grateful for a reference! Thanks :)

Hi all, need some advise. I m new to H. Bought a Picotin 18 in mid Nov. I told the SA that my next bags r mini Evelyne & mini Lindy, hv asked him to keep a 'lookout' for me. It has been 2 wks, no pm fr my SA yet. Shall i ping him? Actually i hope to get a mini E by xmas & mini L by CNY. Haha. Possible?

Hi! Heard from my SA that a mini E and mini Lindy are harder to get these days as demand has been sky high. Between the 2, I would think a mini E is easier to get, just that I’m not sure you will be able to get it by Xmas. Also depends on how flexible you are with the colour.

As for the mini Lindy, I think it would be tough to get it very soon? But H works in mysterious ways haha. I know regulars who have been waiting for a while for a colourway and hardware of their choice. The rest can correct me if I’m wrong, but from what I’m hearing, a mini L is usually offered to regular customers and these are the ppl who purchase from other depts too.
I’m not saying a mini L is impossible, just that you’d need to be very very lucky to land one if you have just been buying H bags so far >.<

Think cos small bags is the in thing nw. My SA did say that the wait for mini lindy is quite a wait as its a 'new' size as compared to mini E.
For mini E, i m open to all colors except black & light colors. Haha. As for mini E, all colors except light ones. Heee
Jialat. So far i hvnt buy any other stuff fr other depts. Thou i m quite tempted to get the aloha sandals. But was thinking for that price i can buy other brands' flats. Sigh...
Y no bonus this yr end??!!!!
