Hmmm….think most times it’s not just so simple to “enjoy and wait”.

There is a lot of money involved. (Not applicable to those who are able to allocate huge part of their budget to Hermes)

As the time goes on, there is a lot of uncertainty like rule changes, SA leaving the store, some other items previously requested came but it’s actually intended to be for the next bags, keep on spending while waiting for bag or not….

Adding to it, I saw on Social media that there is a rumour of price increase after Christmas. While in the past, Hermes price increases had been reasonable to even negligible, that was in the past. Now, during the pandemic times of global supply chain disruptions….really can’t tell how much would be the price adjustment. Seeing other Brands, I just hope we don’t get a major shock.

There is indeed reason for a lot of anxiety.

Hermes increases price during Jan every year. The increase wasn’t that significant early this year during Covid as compared to other luxury brands. So no cause for alarm.

Yea.. I agree, it's hard to just enjoy and wait but guess we had no choice except for being patience, cause everything is like a verbal agreement with the SA and we can only depend on the SA. Though I suppose in SG we should be quite safe.. haha...

i feel that as long as spending is met, don’t be too crucial on 1:1 specifically, and have no expectations, it will come! Feels like a lot of us make sure we spend a fixed certain figure, and the anxiety comes when you know your spending is there yet there’s no news on the qb.

True. sometimes because the amt is not small so understandably it's kinda worrying. In my case cos it's my first QB, I'm just so can't wait to receive it.. hahaha... so it's good to read up how long typically is the waiting time, just for a gauge. Then again, knowing the H rules, I will never want to disturb my SA on this QB topic knowing that it is sensitive, I will still want to make purchases if something I like come by, like the calvi duo but no news either after putting in wait list for months.

How annoying it must be for the SA/SM to be inundated with questions of when bags are arriving or if one’s spending has reached some magical threshold.

My SA has shared that those who are calculative in their spending with the sole aim of getting a “quota bag” are the ones who are specifically disregarded for any such offers.

:rolleyes:

hmm.. I'm not sure. If I remembered correctly, I asked for Calvi duo even before I submitted my QB wish list or slightly after.. so it's abt 3-4 months ago.. I din ask for specific colour, remembered she show me a neutral tone one and told me this is incoming and asked me if I ok with it I said ok but no news yet. Maybe it's really like depends on which SA hands are faster? :biggrin:

I believe it’s fastest fingers for the SAs too. I also managed to get a calvi duo about 2 weeks ago at Liat. SA said a batch a stocks came in and she remembered that I had asked for one few months ago so she kept one aside for me when she knew stocks arrived. If she had been on leave the day the stocks arrived, I would probably not have gotten lucky.
