periogirl28, I am not sure if you are replying to me. Sorry if I misunderstand. My above posts might got some people confused re our shopping history, for the benefit of the fellow future shoppers I best clarify my case.
I wanted to know if leafyyue wanted to share her shopping history a little more because got into the same place the same time ending with very different results I can’t think of other factors except surely she got a different sales too.
So here is our story:
Actually both our account were rejected at the first time online, both withiout any shopping history at FSH. Only one 300++ transaction a week before the online application for bookings at George V. Item under one of us, other than that our accounts are all fresh due to the previous year’s airport shopping doesn’t count at all. We were only in Paris two days so we checked online and found a lot of people had a similar experience of finding great difficulty to even sort out an online appointment in August due to the amount of application, it is worse for many of those has no shopping record in France. As I said we only got two days so we can’t really count on doing what others do - pop up 3-4 four days in a row and try to get into the slot with a 0 account.
From our research we found that some other customers also found it easier to get into the que with some shopping record at FSH. Hence after being rejected the first time we went to FSH and did our shopping list for none bag items, with a good array, otherwise we would rather do it at one go on the day of purchasing bags were it not because the online booking was so hard to get into. We actually running around all 3 shops in Paris back and forth in two days, it was indeed already very tiring to simply get into the system of booking in August. In that evening we finally got one booking accepted, mainly shoppings were made in the day of the application. The other 0 account was still refused.
That was our booking experience anyway.
For the once upon a life a time of event to celebrate and how much we will enjoy the first B/K, as the new policy of FSH, we were hoping we can be one of those lucky bunny but no, it didn’t happen to us. It was indeed a very special event but I guess same as most of the travellers too.
About our option list we actually did a research and knew a few colours were this season and chose to mention it on purpose. Surely it’s also because they fit me rather than I just want to buy it which kightvworry the sales I am a reseller.
Funny enough at other places people taking about you better not even take your phone out to confuse the sales, because resellers might do thst in the past. Hence of course I don’t dare to print out list, in case sales think that it look as if that’s others wishing list and I knew nothing about Hermès bags.
Sorry I talked like I am an very unpleasant person here but please forgive me due to were anyone in my shoes seeing others who went to the FSH the same day and same time, seeing others got 3 items and 2 of which are most seeking ones, even in the exact size, color, and leather in my shopping list, people might u derstsnd the feeling a bit better. That’s why I want to figure out, was that the purchase record of leafyyue counts towards bagging a dream bag.
Were it be me who were being offered anything in my first list of B/ K, I am sure my reports tune will be same as other lucky girls, happy and cheerful and can’t wait to share and help others too.
