I just created a thread about this without noticing there is a specific Aussie LV thread. I was able to get a monogram Pochette Métis with a very short wait time after being told the wait list was closed in March. I didn’t bother checking the website after a few times things appeared available when they weren’t due to some website error, so I called and spoke with a lovely SA by the name of Emma. Despite the wait list being closed, she took my details and called last week to give me the good news. When I went to pick it up from the flagship store in George Street today, someone suggested COVID may have helped me get this bag a lot faster as the economic uncertainty has stopped a lot of people from making high end purchases, and the border closures mean tourists aren’t visiting Australia to make high end purchases. So, now might be the time to put your name down for those items that are traditionally hard to get!
