I had written this whole long story about how I got it, but it got erased somehowush:
Anyway, I was going JUST to Saks JUST to buy some Juicy Couture sweatpants, but I decided to stop in Hermes just to look. I had absolutely no intention of buying anything except those Juicy sweats, plus I knew my SA didn't work on Mondays. Well, I noticed a lady with this bag, and of course, I just assumed that she had bought it and I narrowly missed my opportunity. So I went upstairs to look at RTW and shoes. As I'm walking up the stairs, I see an SA putting the Birkin back in the case. I scurry down the stairs and find a familiar SA who says that my SA is working today, but she was just at lunch. I say don't bother her, it's OK, but she insists that she should be back any minute anyway. Then I ask to see the Birkin, and she takes it out for me and calls my SA. She gets my SA on the phone, and we talk and I tell her I'm glad she's there. Then she says she'll be with me soon, and I wait literally about 2 minutes for her, and the elevator dinged and there she was. She hugs me and asks how my Thanksgiving is. I say good, and I wanted the Birkin, but doesn't it look like the ebene box Birkin I'm going to order? She says yes, but box comes in so many different colors, I could easily pick another one, and this bag will look so similar to the box I'm ordering anyway. I say of course, then we look at the leather book and she says that she'll get the craftsperson to pull some red boxcalf bags for me to look at before I place an order so that I'll make an informed decision. She's so great! Here are the details:
