I will leave this reminder as a sticky because tthis is often a thread that new members (or new Hermès lovers) post on - hopefully temporarily.
 
Thank you so much.

Day 2, without luck again.

Queued since 830am again, could meet the SA immediately without getting an appointment.
There was progress today as she bothered taking down my wishlist on a white piece of paper, however went for 10min, and came back with a no :sad:

Last try tmr! [emoji1320][emoji1320]

If you were planning to buy other H things, it may be good to just buy them before you try to queue again. Based on what others have said, it's good for them to see a transaction history within the store and may help your cause. Good luck!

HOW I GOT MY BIRKIN****

(Quick story, wanna help my girls out! )


Totally makes a differently when you spend. Even just a little

First time I lined up and asked for a bag. The sa took colours , leather preference Etc. And before the she left she asked "is their anything else you want to see ..... Ie. Belts maybe some jewelry ? " almost like she was hinting "girl buy something or you ain't getting ****!" Lol excuse my French . I said no and she came back and said "sorry no stock today " lol


So the next day I went and bought a few things I kinda went over board I spent about €10k
But these were things I always wanted.


oh what a difference. The sa even gave me his card and told me to ask for him tomorrow when I que. in the end I got to pick and choose between 3 different colour birkins
In the size I wanted

I don't think you have to spend that much but even just a little helps they like to see you appreciate the brand.

Don't lose hope! Be optimistic and polite...making jokes and getting sa laughing helps :)
 
could I check, for me to get the text messages, it is either:
1. I continue using my local sim card and tap onto FSH's wifi (in this case, I will provide my local mobile phone number to FSH); or
2. buy a prepaid sim card with data in France and provide the French mobile phone number to FSH

Am I correct? Thank you!

Just give your local number, it doesn't matter which country it's from, you will still get the message.
