My first thought — why take the time to post here and request speculation from online folks instead of calling the SA back?
Respectfully, am I missing something?

ohh .... then I feel sorry for the new hires lolOmg...I am soooooo sorry everyone for keeping you in suspense. I got super busy at work dealing with some new hires on my team and hadn't got a chance to repost.
So I did call back, and...
Congratulations!!! Can’t wait to see it!!...my SA is calmly and nonchalantly like "so I wanted to talk to you about something..."
(((((Long pause on both ends)))))
Me: Ok I'm listening (as my heart is beating and sinking at the same time)
SA: So I wanted to let you know I have a bag for you!!
Me: (trying to stay calm and collected) Oh yeah, really?
SA: Yes, I have a beautiful Birkin 30 in etoupe with gold hardware...would you be interested?
Me: (trying to find words and still trying my best not to sound like a discombobulated looney) Oh. Yes!!....
Congratulations!!! Can’t wait to see it!!
I have a B30 sellier in etoupe with GHW (got it at FSH) and I love it.
What a nailbiter!!! It really could’ve gone in various directions LOL!
Thanks. So that wasn't the end... My SA could hear the hesitation in my voice (since I originally had a B35 or B40 on my wishlist), and said "well does that sound good to you?"congrats!!!!!!!! Sounds amazing.
Seriously @FrenchNewbie!! I was not expecting that plot twist!!Thanks. So that wasn't the end... My SA could hear the hesitation in my voice (since I originally had a B35 or B40 on my wishlist), and said "well does that sound good to you?"
I replied, trying to be as gracious as possible about the offer...that I didn't feel that's the right bag for me. My SA understood and told me if this wasn't exactly what I wanted then I don't have to feel bad about declining. I'd rather this bag go to someone who it "fits".
Gosh...
Whoa! Not the ending I’d expected! That being said, definitely best to decline an offer for a bag that isn’t quite right…the right one will come along. In the past year, I’ve declined offers for two Bs and a K, none of which were exactly what I wanted. My SA knew, even as she offered them, that they weren’t right. And she did eventually offer me a B that I acceptedThanks. So that wasn't the end...

Gotta add some kind of flair to this otherwise boring I-got-an-offer-but-didn’t-accept-threadGirl!!! Lol are you writing a suspense novel?. What’s with all the pause and twists and turns hahahaha just kidding. Awww I’m sorry that wasn’t what you wanted. Hopefully the one you want will come in soon
I swear, you are trying to give us all sorts of palpitations....my SA is calmly and nonchalantly like "so I wanted to talk to you about something..."
