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.
 
And here is my B30 magnolia baby:heart:
It's beautiful! Congratulations to you and your hubby as well!

When I got my Constance at FSH I wasn't asked to move into a private room because they were all occupied but I was asked to go to a more private area so I guess just because you're not taken to a private room doesnt mean you wont be offered a BKC. :)
 
Twice for me and twice for my husband
Earlier this year I tried four times online for an appointment and did not get one appointment. There doesn’t seem to be a magic number of tries for an appointment; I think it is the luck of the draw. My 27 and 28 year old daughters did receive appointments with no or nominal purchase history at FSH and one was offered a C24.

But we had a great time, and while I was a little disappointed it didn’t spoil our fun! Plus, I was offered a B30 by my fabulous SA in the USA about a month later. :heart::loveeyes::yahoo:

We will be back n Paris in December and I will definitely try my luck again. But regardless, “Paris is always a good idea” :heart::heart: (thank you Audrey Hepburn) :love:

Got it, thank you for the info so that I won’t panic next time :P
 
Hey everyone, I just wanted to ask one question cos Im not as knowledgeable as most of the members here. Im planning on going to munich and rome. Trying to go to paris for two days but still not sure. Does anyone have any experience with the hermes in munich or rome.? Thanks in advance :smile:
chances in rome or munich will be quite low because they mostly reserve their stocks for their locals, my advice would be to make a trip to paris and try.

good luck!

Don’t know if it has been mentioned before but I was told whether you get an appointment or not depends on supply and demand, not number of tries or purchase history. If the demand for appointments on the day you apply is much greater than the supply of apppintments, it’s likely you won’t get an appointment irrespective of purchase history.
And likely available SAs as I know many SAs were on leave recently when I went. The store was empty and I don't think many appointments were given. There were people asking for appointments at the leather department as they were unsuccessful online.
 
Was at the fsh outlet yesterday after the assumption holiday. Quite a lot of people, queue etc. Didn’t manage to get an appointment after first try online. No manual appointments today too as no cancellation.

Went to Serves outlet this morning at their opening time to queue, around 10pax when store open. Was told no BKC till September as all stocks sent to Monaco, nice etc as everyone goes there for summer holiday...

On way to George V, Guess probably similar outcome. Maybe it’s into the mid month & stocks are Super Low time.

Dont give up keep trying
Also enjoy the other side of paris at the same time
 
Tks dear!

George V push us back to fsh but they do have garden party though as a nice male sales consultant asked if we like that & he could check it out.

Will be going back fsh to try again after lunch. 3rd time in Paris & am trying. Let’s see if Lady Luck smiles on us for the appointment! But I believe fsh do have other bags available as they did ask if they could help with non-bkc...

Thinking if I should get jypsiere or lindy...

Hi :smile: Sharing my experience at FSH last weekend.
I was in Paris for only one day on saturday 11th august. I applied for an apointment om friday, and got an apointment for saturday at 4 pm. Went to the store around 3 pm, browsed a bit, and 45 minuts later it was my turn. The SA was nice, and told me she was new to the leather department, and was under training. I gave her a few options to what kind of bag i wanted, waited about 15 minuts. She came back with a medium size box, and few other small boxes. We went to a quiet place on the top floor, and she showed me the bag. It was a Birkin 25, in togo leather, chocolate color, with gold hardware!! I offcourse bought the bag and few twillys, very happy with my first bag from FSH.

Wow congratulations could you share the pic? Never seen this color before dear? TIA
