6:30am? I'm not sure if that early is really necessary....so here is my story:
I arrived Tuesday Jan 10, and by the time I arrived at FSH it was 1pm. I knew chances were slim for an appt but I still wanted to look around the store and try for an appointment.
Nope, no luck.

I then Lined up at 8am on Thursday Jan 12, I was #6 in line at the main entrance. Exactly 10:30am, the main doors opened, but then after they let 10 ppl in they then let around 15/20 ppl in from the side entrance! And for sure those ppl were not in line at 8am.....more like 9am!
Anyhow, I was still good as I was the first 10 to line up to see an SA. I guess I was also lucky cuz the lady that was in front of me just walked by and up the stairs ignoring the SA that was assigned to her. She then became my SA who was very friendly and cheerful.
She took me upstairs where all the ppl who lined up in front of me were seated at different counters already talking to their SA's and I could hear almost everyone asking for a B/K.
We had some small talk, and I also asked for a b30/kelly sellier/c24 all with MANY color options, any hardware, but specific on sizes. She told me right away to forget about the color Black and even asking for a Constance. Not possible and rare.

She then left for about 5 mins...but in that 5 mins....4 ppl who had lined up in front of me were all declined by their SA that there was 'no stock' for any b/k. I saw them all sadly leave after waiting since 8am (probably earlier since they were already lined up prior to me arriving). I was getting prepared to hear the same thing when she came back with a BIG box and asked me to follow her to the private room!!
She then said I was lucky, but....It was a B35 in Colvert. I tried it on, but I only wanted a B30 and dark/neutral colors so I declined and asked her once again if there was anything else. She then asked me if I would look at the Retourne in kelly and to give her more color options...so I said shades of red would be an option but ONLY in the kelly no in a birkin.

Again, Less than 5 mins, she came back with 3 boxes!
She came back with a fourni, and a kelly wallet in Red Tomate to match my Sellier Kelly 32 in Red Tomate!!!!! I was sooooooooooooo surprised and felt so lucky as she showed me both a birkin and kelly when everyone else was declined around me. So I don't really get how they pick and choose...but I'm not complaining since I picked up the kelly!
It was my first try at FSH for a bag, no purchase history, dressed casual and I only had Hermes bracelets on.

Good luck everyone!

Declining a bag shows that you are genuine H lover and not just a reseller. They make things extra special if you show are genuine customer. Well done. Enjoy your K!
