Here are my goodies. I am SO HAPPY that I decided to brave the weather and check out the final day. This is my first time going on the final day. I was hoping to find the astrologie top that I passed on the first two go arounds, but it was not meant to be. Here's my loot:
GM Enamels and one PM enamel, all in the GM size:

LGA82, we are scarf twins! I have the pink Tout en quilt also! Congrats on your purchases!
I've been to two sales now (though I did not go to the NY sale this year) and I'm a bit perplexed that you are surprised that some people scoop up a lot. I saw the same thing .... but my assumption was that most of the people who did this were doing so for themselves. And since the sale is public (despite the invitation part, it's still not terribly restricted) why shouldn't resellers buy for their businesses? If Hermes wanted to place restrictions on how much people could buy, after all these sales, I am sure they would have done so by now.
As for people dressing comfortably and not looking like "the usual Hermes customer", when I went, there was a nearly two hour wait to get in, a lot of running around once inside, and then an hour long wait to pay. Comfort was a priority.
I'm sorry you didn't get everything you wanted because I know first-hand how frustrating that can be, but to my mind, that's just the way these sales go. It's like being outbid on Ebay. You win some, you lose some. And then on to the next item...
And twilly's count as a whole scarf! They should be amortized ... like four twilly's equals one scarf. All I know is, I spent enough on my friends to buy a Birkin and made no money, and ended up with nothing but a scarf ring for myself, but it comes back in good karma.BUT Hermes DOES place limits !!! One can only buy 10 scarves, and I filled that allotment easily - with 6 for me & 4 for a very close friend, and she returns the favor by buying for me at her local Hermes sale
That was very kind of youAnd twilly's count as a whole scarf! They should be amortized ... like four twilly's equals one scarf. All I know is, I spent enough on my friends to buy a Birkin and made no money, but it comes back in good karma.

This has been THE most fun thread! Thanks to all who braved the sale, and shared their booty will all of us who couldn't make it to the sale. You made it almost like being there!
Thank you, ALL!!!!
