Do stores get bags in a one drop for spring one for fall method or do bags trickle in the way other items seem to do? I’m just wondering if I haven’t gotten an offer does it mean I am going to have to wait for 6 months until another bag shipment comes in? Just trying to prepare myself.
How frequently do stores get bag shipments? Trickle vs Drop method?

Stores get deliveries multiple times every week. Some deliveries have many bags, some just a few, some none. It’s completely at corporate’s whim with no way to predict.
Stores also get big shipments around big gift giving holidays like Valentine’s Day, Mother’s Day, Christmas, etc.
I think its also a store by store phenom- some stores get shipments earlier in the day and some later in the day. No real pattern, I don't think.
It depends on the buying power (selling power) set targets and KPIs, cultural/national holiday periods (different all over the World) and holidays for artisans in France.
Interesting. I thought it would be more standardized but I guess that would just make it boring.
So, is it possible to say what kind/type of bag a store gets delivered (usually)? What I want to know is...how often does a store (Europe) get a Kelly Pochette shipment and MK? I always thought that B/K shipments arrive every week (or every other day)
Impossible to say. Every delivery is going to be different and each store orders different bags at podium. There is also a very restrictive max quantity of the most coveted bags (KP, K20, etc) allowed to be ordered by each store, regardless of budget (ie a store cannot decide to spend 100% of their budget on KPs, for a ridiculous example). Then its up to corporate for what they want to distribute that week.
