Please try to stay on topic. I realise because of the complexity of some of the posts members may veer off but in answer do not 'go there'.

For info and questions on US customs please post on the thread below: post https://forum.purseblog.com/threads/us-customs-discussion-airports-importing.905560/

Detaxing (to US from Europe) https://forum.purseblog.com/threads/best-way-to-detax-after-h-in-europe.178302/

or non-US destinations: https://forum.purseblog.com/threads/does-h-store-paris-wants-to-ship.605014/page-3

For questions relating to prices https://forum.purseblog.com/threads/reference-hermes-current-prices.102567/page-357

For traveling with boxes https://forum.purseblog.com/threads...me-hermes-boxes-when-traveling.1044553/page-5



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.

I made my appointment since Monday , it is really disappointing that for 4 days both my bf and I got denied total of 8 times. I did tried both serve and George v everyday but all I get is a no or showed me something else, for every visit I bought some scarves , wallet and sandals hoping this would help but not. Also there are people taking photos or recoding people standing outside the line in the morning before the store open. I really feel awkward about it.

Today is my last day in Paris, please let me know if you girls recommend any sales that I can give another try ?

As I told there are 800 to 1000 people requesting for appointment daily and only picks about 80s, if you get denied, can I line up at fsh in the morning ask if any appointment cancellation or should I go in the afternoon?

i feel your pain, i had a similar experience, tried 3 days straight and nothing. was told nothing at sevres and george V as well and i didn’t even buy much from either boutique. my last day i went in twice to try to ask for an appointment, the second hostess took pity on me and scheduled me in. try to explain the two of you tried for 4 days and you been to all the other boutiques already. for me i had luck in the afternoon because it was less busy in the boutique. but if you have time and you’re dedicated i would suggest you try morning and afternoon.

my other thought was to buy the things i wanted at FSH and see if the person helping me would be able to help get an appointment for me but it didn’t come to that. but perhaps you have nothing left to buy. don’t buy more stuff you don’t need to try and get an appointment though. you’ll end up more bitter if you don’t get anything.

Did you score anything at the end?

I am only try to buy things I like to see if it helps to get a bag, but not, in the other hand I was thinking if I save all these spending with my SA in US may help me to get the bag easier.

Go FSH in the afternoon they might slot you in if someone cancel/late/no show. There’s no delivery in sevres today. But there’s a chance for George V, my sister got a hint from the SA to go today but she’s already leaving Paris tonight. If anyone score something from George V today do update here! ;) Best of luck!
