Yes, but if you persist they might give. I've seen them tell people to wait until after the line is clear and then they've let them in after 1 hour or so, but that was when the private sale was the same day as the public sale. Also, without fail someone that has never been to the private sale before will walk to the front of the line expecting to go right in just to be pointed to line full of people with invitations.
Not sure what the OP has seen, but I recall that every time I've gone a staff member with a clip board comes out 15 minutes or so before and compares invites to a list and on occasion has asked for some sort of ID. When the sale was at FI:AF they were very strict about this.
At the last sale Woody Allen's wife was allowed to go in about 1:30.

Yes
That's when I went in
didn't even notice!! Must keep my eyes open!Oh, yes I vaguely recall a clipboard but I have never had my invitation checked against it....
Oh. Wait, I'm confused then. So if you're not invited you can't go?
Not for that afternoon, but the sale opens to the public the very next morning, still lots of goodies to be had.

You mean, he entered and she stayed behind and was allowed only at 1:30?
Nice!
What is FI:AF?
There has been some yrs when you were checked to be on the List, the Invite in hand, and ID (CC okay), all three.
Some yrs, its good enough that you just have the invite and CC.

This is why I think in addition to bag/coat check they should have spouse check, equipped with lounge chairs, beer, and the game on a giant HD flat screen.
