Ever since I started my H Journey which was last February, i have spent about $24k already. This includes 1 picotin and 1 2424, shoes, fashion jewelry, RTW, home goods.
During this whole year, my SA has never offer my any bags. No birkin, no constance, nor kelly. I knew birkin 25 was hard to get and I was patient. When it was exactly 1 year, I asked my SA about my wishlist and he just kept saying he is trying but he just doesn’t have any bags.
When I see something in store I like but not my size, my sa will not try to look if he can transfer or order it for me online. For instance, i saw a sweater that I like, but it was a size 36. I tried it on and could tell it was too big. However Sa persuaded me saying it fits just right. I almost bought it but then decided to ask if by any chance he can order a size 34. He then went to the back room and got me a size34.
On another occasion, i tried on a tshirt in size 34 but it was quite tight. For some reason that shirt runs really small. Yet he again said it fits perfect. I got it and tried again when I got home, it is still too small. I texted my SA again and he said they have a bigger size available in the other store and i can exchange it there. So I went to the other store and I met a very nice lady. She knew I was only doing an even exchange but she was so helpful. After trying on size 36, she also said it’s still too small and would really recommend size 40 for a looser fit and that it will look a lot nicer. Or exchange it to something else. I really like her honesty instead of just pushing me to buy if it doesn’t fit or look good on me.
During that trip, i bought 2 small items from her. She then asked if I was local and if I had gotten any bags yet . And I said no. She then look up my record and said with my purchase history, i should have at least gotten a bag already. At that moment, i knew it was time to switch Sa. I then made another appt with her to do a little more shopping. Again, extremely great service and not pushy. On my second time with her, she then asked if I wanted a mini constance in etoupe with gold hardware and she can offer it to me. I had to decline since it wasn’t the leather that I wanted, but it made me really happy that she was at least trying to get me something. And if something i want is not in store, she will look at other stores and do a store transfer or ship it to my house.
So ladies, if you have been spending and just spending with no bag offers yet. Do not be afraid to change SA. Why continue to spend more in hopes of getting a bag? I get it that some bags are just harder to get but when it’s been 1 year, I think it’s time to move on. For instance, if you are in a relationship that you are not happy with, it’s best to end it right away and move on . Find a SA that you really click with, buy only what you love and the right SA will appreciate and find you your dream bag.
