My understanding is they let the people waiting in line into the sale much earlier???

Thanks for the update. I will be coming up to NY from DC for the entire day of March 25 for the sale and a private tour of the Neue Galeire. Anyone who would care to join me is welcome.
I will be at the sale @ 12:00 Noon and will be wearing a black Twilliane from the 90's with the paprika/peppers scarf on the front. Just look for that for our meet up.
Havent been to one before, but I hope security doesnt make me check my twilliane at the check in!
LOL

Thanks everyone for the info. What about 24th? When does the sale start? 2:00PM as well? When should we be there?
Susanvon -- that's funny! I'm going to DC from NY on the 25th and 26th!! This limits my H damage to whatever I can accomplish on the 24th (unless I can sneak in on the 23rd).
How strict are they with the list after a few hours of nagging by people like us? At the last Cartier private sale, they didn't even care if you knew a sales associate or not. They let anyone in...
If you are talking about the private sale day, you actually have to have your invitation to be admitted. The invitation is collected at the door before you are allowed in----there is no list.
If it is not the private sale, then it is completely open to the public & no nagging is required.![]()
I'm a public sale veteran -- this will be my 10th year of H sales. The private sale is my HG. Someday...
I mostly bought scarves and they didn't have much more than scarves, shoes, RTW and fragrance. It's only been the last couple of sales where they've had enamels, good leather bags and all sorts of fun little items. I cannot wait for the upcoming sale!!!!
Does anyone know if there is a no phone policy at the sale? I would imagine everyone would be on the phone.....I wonder if there is any reception?
