I went with my girlfriend yesterday and was a lot calmer. We were there around 1:25 and took about 45 min to get in. Here is my haul...

Five scarves limit is very tough. I got a 90 twill, a dip die, a jersey, a 45 and a beaded.

It was not an easy trip for us to go to the city during the week but with sales like this, let say we are happy girls at the end of the day.

This maybe Hermes' best sale, but it is the worst for me. I got there at 9am, the line was all the way to 31th street and 9th ave. I waited on line to 5:30pm. After standing in line for 8.5 hours, there were still more than ~115 people ahead of me, then some guys came out from the building, gave out unspecified # of yellow wrist bend to about 70 to 80 people, announced these people can get in today, rest people can come back tomorrow! So I did not get in after wasting a whole day standing on line. And there were 40 to 50 people ahead of me did not get in, they must got there around 8:30ish.
I asked multiple line watchers many times during the day, if we have a chance to get in, they said it should be 6.5 hours from end of line to check out.
I have been to past Hermes sale, never saw anything like today. I have not waited in line for this looooong, never left empty hand.
The line was all the way to 9th ave at 5:30pm. I don't think I will go back tomorrow, I had enough. They should find a way to manage the line better, not to waste people's time.

I am soooo sorry to hear this too. Sample sales are supposed to be fun but today's craziness is beyond my imagination. I hope next year you will have a much better time and score lots of your HGs! Hugs! [emoji178][emoji178]

I'm so sorry to hear that you wasted a whole day lining up and not able to get in. This is ridiculous but also reveals that the love of H scarves are still present but it has to be at the 'right' price. While a lot of scarves are sitting full price at the stores, I wonder if management ever think this kind of PR on the sales event could be self-fulfilling.

This makes the line at FSH looks short !!
