Hi,

My friend and I went, in March 2009, to Hermes on Sloanne st. to put down both of our names on the waitlist for Birkins.

And today the SA called my friend and told her that her Birkin has arrived but my friend is having a second thought on taking the bag. She is more than happy to let me have it.

The question is that 'Can I use my own credit card to make a payment for the Birkin which is reserved under her name?' Is it against the rule of one Birking per customer per year???

Will the SA let me do that??

Thanks

You could always say that you are simply collecting it for your friend and leave the bag in her name so that you could get yours when it comes in....whether they believe you or not is another question....

The two of you could go together and your friend could say she is going to get it but that you are paying since she is waiting for funds to transfer in to her account. This actually happened to me once... the bag I wanted was available but the funds would not be in my account for a short while so my friend put it on her AMEX and then I paid her back with a check once the funds cleared.
