I definitely agree, that's why I am thinking whether to line up and go the first day or not. If I don't go, I would always think what have I missed, if I did, I may end up hating myself for going through such hassle just to buy the scarves. Will you be going this month?
Yes I will, peggyyo, but certainly not the first day, it's craziness! And don't be worried about what you could have missed. As Chestnutty said, he stock is renewed everyday. I plan to go there on Thursday, and not opening time, probably later, as I hate lining up for hours.
 
Sorry but you are incorrect. The no VAT refunds began in January 2013 for both London and Paris sales and continued in June and will be in effect for January 2014.
Are you absolutely sure for Jan '14?
1. The PABLO procedure
As of January 1st, 2014, French retailers will be required to provide PABLO V.A.T refund forms to travelers. These computer-generated forms, showing a barcode and the PABLO logo, will need to be approved electronically at designated PABLO readers located in all major airports.
Instead of submitting their documents at the customs window, as was previously the case when applying for a V.A.T refund, travelers will be able to scan their PABLO form directly at one of these self-service reader stations. Instructions will be provided in English.

Sorry for delayed response. The "no VAT refund" policy was told to me by a manager at FSH just before Christmas. After I read your comment, I also called my SA in London to check date of London sale and also about the VAT refund. She told me that there would be no VAT refunds at the London sale this January 2014 either.

So I guess one can never be "absolutely sure" about anything regarding Hermes! They seem to be able to do anything they want and we still keep begging for more Hermes! Good luck in the sale---and to be frank--for me personally, I do not care about the VAT refund so much because it always becomes a battle at the airports and adds to the time you have to arrive before the flight!!

Well, I was told before Christmas when I picked up my special order belts that it is the Music Room again but no date.

So to avoid me getting myself or anyone else more confused on Monday morning I shall call my SA at Selfridges London and email the manager in FSH Paris.

Please note: to best of my knowledge I did not put the word Hermes in red anywhere in my posts or responses. So how did it get that way? I am sorry because I am new to posting I not try to break any rules--so please just tell me why it is red? Thank you and happy shopping.

Hi guys- thanks for all the helpful information!
Im new here :smile1:
Any news on the potential sample sale in London?
Thanks in advance!
 
Hi, I've just had an email back from the music rooms in London regarding the sale. Hermes have not booked the location until June 2014...do unless they have moved the location then it looks like there may not be a London Hermes sale....

Thanks a lot for the info! I guess June it shall be then...
 
How exciting,! I've just realised I'll be in Paris for the last day of the sale. I am definitely going to go but I need some help.

I believe Porte Maillot is the close set metro station, and I see that I need exit 1. Once I am outside, though, is it obvious where to go for the sale? I don't want to wander around aimlessly.

Thanks pw
