I think that's Bruno. He is the only tall and slim SA I remember from the bag department there. Hope it helps!

I assume that you're talking about Lindys? If so, can you remember what was on the list of stocks that they were expecting? Thanks
Sorry for my late reply, I remember they were expecting in Togo, indigo blue, etoupe, the new electric blue, in swift, tosca, and a coupe in 2 color, mocha/burgundy, graphite/etoupe, that's all I could remember....
Living in Japan, Birkins & Kellys are VERY easy to get either at H or resellers. If I want anything from H, I get it when I'm home in Belgium because it's significantly cheaper. I have to say though, all the money some of you spend traveling to Europe, you could easily buy a bag here in Japan! If you're lucky, you may even be able to choose size and color!! Also, don't forget you would be able to get the bag tax-free because you don't live here...
...just something to think about!

I can't agree more!!
Next time I want a specific bag...off to Japan I go!!!
Ahhh well goodluck!! Oh and just to let you know, you can call in and ask what they have available beforehand. I called into the Ginza H the other day and they told me they had 3 Birkins available....the SA (unfortunately didn't catch her name) was very helpful, polite and spoke English really well. She told me each and ever size/color/leather, price, tax-free price AND sincerely apologized for not having exactly what I wanted. What a sweetie... 
Oh thanks for the sharing, good thing to hear!!
however, i have a fix budgetush:
so i will still try my luck in Paris ... Good luck to me!!
Yea, I was just saying in another thread that for the price of ONE Birkin in Japan, you could almost get TWO in Europe
It's an absolute shocker!!
Goodluck to you indeed
can i phone order it?

No, none of the Japanese stores take phone orders. You have to go there.
I bought a croc matte Gris elephant there a couple of years ago in Ginza H. I called and it was available, and my husband, who was in Tokyo on business, went down to pick it up. They would not ship or even hold for a day.

I am in Belgium now. Will go to Paris next week . Hope to get my B there ! Bought a 32 Kelly GHW yesterday in Brussels . They have only cloth type on the shelves ! And a shoulder kelly. I held a conversation with the nice SA and finally after two rounds strolling in the shop he offered me the chocolate togo Kelly ! I'm so happy ! It's PERFECT !
DH was at FSH yesterday (Sat) twice (noon & 5pm). First visit, none of the SA were available or wanted to help him at all. Then second visit, he managed to ask SA to check the computer. No B & K as usual. But no Lindy nor Picotin neither!!! No luck at George V as well.....BUT earlier today, Sunday afternoon DH dropped by CDG T2E boutique just for a quick look before leaving France --- he noticed a blue Lindy & a red Picotin right away!!! Now, the blue one is with him on the plane now =)
