you don't have to be carrying a croc . . . just be patient, wait your turn politely, and be nice!! imagine how it must feel to be an SA there: every morning you go to work and another crowd of tourists comes pushing in, all at once, all looking for the same thing, trying to get your attention or pull you away from the person you're already helping . . . I think a lot of people get caught up in the frenzy and forget that SA's are people too - they appreciate being treated as such (^(oo)^)v

Very well said.
I didn't carry a Croc or even closed to being well dressed, just a t-shirt, cargo pants and a pairs of "Crocs", I was treated like Royalty and had a swelled time at FSH today!!! Just be nice and fun with the SA, they like that.

the problem at the moment at H paris is it was couture week and a lot of inventory reserved for the regulars. in the past that meant loads of inventory but after the recession i find they do not produce as much as before "blindly" for specific dates

but i wish all of you loads of luck in scoring your dream bag

I was in Paris 3 weeks ago, lucky me, i got two birkin, both 35, one jeans blue and one elephant grey. i also got a 35 kelly which is dark grey. My SA was really helpful and the way i did is ask the SA for Lindy first (this is wat my friend wanted) and ask about the kelly then. after i confirmed i wanna both the lindy and kelly, i asked if the store had birkin and my SA checked for me. Eventually, i got two birkins and one kelly, but droped off the lindy. oh, and he told me that the waiting list would be open in Sep. so better go there in Sep lol... Hope my way could help you guys. good luck.

Well, i didnt lie to them about the lindy, cuz my friend did ask me to buy for her. It's just at the end there's really no space of my luggage, so i dropped it off. It's just a way might be more effective if you wanna get a quote and some one does ask you to buy ....:p i mean, especially for traveller.

I live in Paris, I've gone to Hermes on Fauborg St Honore, George V and on the Left Bank near Bonne Marche. Is your chance in finding a Birkins at one store better than the other ? If there is, which one? Also, do you have a best chance if you are there the first thing in the morning when the store open?

Hi , I have gotten a birkin at GV and a Kelly at the store as a tourist. It came down to persistence and finding the right SA. I had no luck at FSH on multiple visits. Just be pleasant and show interest in all the lovely H items, not just Birkins. Good luck!

But you live in Paris. I should be asking your advice! :lol:

Hi, need advice. I'm going to Paris with my husband early April. If we walk in together, does the SA consider us as one so only 1 birkin and 1 kelly (if any) or we both can get 1 each which make a total of 2 birkins and 2 kellys??? I really hope I can get sth in yhis trip. And other then morning, when is the best time to visit H store? Thanks in advance!!

^^ given the current inventory worldwide I'm afraid the chances of you being able to score 1 of them, let alone 2 of each is pretty unlikely.

Go mid week and if they offer you either grab it and run!
