I wanted to share my experience at Hermes FSH most recently. I used the appointment system and by the time my turn came I was greeted by a lovely sales associate. My wishlist was fulfilled. I wanted a kelly 28 Togo and my prayer was answered. I didn’t beat around the bush. That was the only color I wanted in Togo leather with palladium hardware. I was very specific. She did ask for other options, I said nope, it was all or nothing!!! I have no fabulous story to tell other than I was direct and blunt about my request. I was also at the store at the busiest time of the day which was in the morning and I got extremely lucky. I have shopped at this store before and the prior sales associate I’ve worked with was not helpful so I just went with the luck of the draw. So being random may help?? I also purchased a jacket after and the alteration was done within a day!! I wish I could say the same about the sale. Oh well at least one great experience outweighed the other! Good luck everyone!

Feel so happy for you that you’ve managed to get a haul this trip! Patience and perseverance paid off.

I love the painting in your hotel room! Which hotel is it?

Dear ladies,

I have a question regarding the payment. If me and my bf both tried booking the appointment but my boyfriend got the appointment, and we ended up getting the items I want. Can I use my credit card to pay instead of bf's credit card? Or does the credit card have to be the same under the person who got the appointment? We will both go together no matter what though...Just wanted to make sure... Anyone know about this? Thank you so much.

My own experience couple of weeks age: the SA asked who’s paying before she went to check the bag. Even though the appointment was under my name, we gave her DH’s passport. DH had to pay for everything as we’re not allowed to use a card under another name.
