So do you mean if you like to buy seasonal LV items, then it will make you to be a VIP customer?

I read somewhere "An LV VIP is more than a frequent shopper, much more than a preferred customer".

^^I definitely don't spend that much in that amount time. OVER time maybe but not in a few months.
I've gotten gifts and invites because I'm friendly with my SA and inquire about certain new items I know I'll be interested in. Plus, when items come in, I actually buy them, not just look at them.
I remember the other day when I went to pick up my Amarante Inclusions, the bag they were in had a note on it that said "VIC-do not pull" (meaning they weren't supposed to put those items on display for others to buy).

Lol don't feel bad I wasn't into bags in high school either. I liked clothes but not bags. :p

I know I have spent well over 20k over the last year in the store in bags. Never got a thank you card. Invited once to a special event. That's it. I know my SA really likes me--she always jokingly offers me a job to work there because she knows how much I love the brand. SA does call me when stuff comes in and has managed to find me some hard to find stuff, but that's about it for me. Boo hoo!

As far as elux, I am a VIP there which means free shipping upgrade all of the time and random LV catalogues. The elux VIPs also get advance emails about free shipping and sales events.

when i usually bought my bags, I would buy from whoever was in the store..i never thought about going to the same SA or same store or anything like that..until i found TpF!!!

so since being on here, i've made an effort to find a SA i like...after a few SA's..i met one who was so so nice..i genuinely like her and when i bought my last bag, that was the first time she helped me..i only spent about $300 but she was so patient and acted like i was spending thousands!!
when i left with my purchases, she also gave me a catalog...

now today I went back and i called and made sure she would be there...i purchased the neverfull gm and then she invited me to an upcoming party!! i havent really spent so much at the store so i thought it would take longer but i guess its true like u guys said, if u meet a nice SA and make an effort to shop with him or her than thats how u can be on ur way VIC status

i know its kind of trivial but who cares... its fun!!

oh and she actually has discouraged me from spending more money!! i asked her if i should get mezzo or neverfull and she said the never...then i was going to buy shoes today and she was like wait till the party when more goodies will be here!!

My husband (who was my boyfriend at the time) purchased my first Louis. A few days later, he received a thank you card and since then (it's been about 3 years now), he receives the occasional catalog. The LV in Waikoloa is really small and I'm not sure whether they have trunk shows or any parties. I would like to know, though. Last I went, my classmate from high school was a SA. Back then, I wasn't into bags. Not sure whether he still works there, if he's there, I'll definitely seek him out.

I refuse to kiss anyone's a*s. When I first joined here I was so surprised to see how some people on here hold LV sales associates on a pedastool. I don't see them any different than any other sales person in the mall. I prefer to get a different SA everytime. I just want to get what I came to get and leave. Sure, free things are nice but they should be given because the giver wants to give not because I kiss her a*s. Maybe I feel like this because my husband owns a business where this happens a lot. People want tshirts, free tickets, free drinks and they think by telling me things they think I want to hear they will get it easier. I can see right through it and it makes me uncomfortable when they start compliment after compliment. I'd give it to them if they would just ask for it in a normal way. Those that qualify already get it anyway so they don't have to ask.

You assume that every VIP had to kiss tushy in order to get that status. Bad assumption.

My SA is very nice to me and I've never nor would I ever kiss tushy. We always go out for coffee and even had lunch a few times.

For me it is better to deal with the same person than to get a new person every time you are in the boutique.

Me too!! DH (also BF at the time) only bought the Mussette Tango and a checkbook. BUT he got catalogs, Thank You cards, etc., etc.

On the other hand, I'm not sure we're at which expenditure mark, but I have yet to get a catalog through mail.

I got the le Voyage catalog the other day with my Sunset Blvd. and also two Thank You cards from two different SAs... One invitation to the event on Geary. Now where's my gift?? :roflmfao:

I really don't care about gifts or not, but it's so much more nice with something more tangible. :laugh:

I would love to be a VIP one day, but only buy if I like. I dont kiss SAs bums but I do enjoy talking to the manager and the other male SA. I found out that the one SA and I have a lot in common, i was talking to him for an hour about Uni etc.
I suppose it takes a while and not just a few months, but I have only been shopping in LV since February and I have got pretty friendly with the SAs so, im thinking maybe a year and I could get my first gift xx
