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/

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.

Got lucky and got a c24 etoupe with ghw. Very small haul this trip...but still happy. Quite a few classic colors (black and gold) were avail in c18 as well.

Cdg however had little stock, sa said deliveries have been slow unlike previous years during this time of year.View attachment 4281091View attachment 4281092

I’ve been stalking this thread for weeks leading up to my trip to Paris and finally have something exciting to share! I arrived on 14th Dec (Friday) and was rejected for an appt on 14th and 16th. FSH was closed due to the riots on 15th. Finally got an appt for 16th (Monday) at 520pm but I had a flight out in the evening so I decided to try my luck getting an earlier appt at the store. I reached at 2pm and the lady at the counter very nicely changed the appt time for me to 215pm. I asked for a Birkin 25/30, Kelly 25/28 or a Constance 18/24 in neutral colours... please let me share my new Constance 24 in gold

I also got a kelly wallet on impulse and am thinking twice about keeping it as the price is quite steep... would love to hear your thoughts on whether I should keep it!

Thanks for letting me share!!

It looks like it’s been raining Constances in FSH over the past few days! Congratulations ladies, carry them in good health ☺️

So my CC arrived in time! Only thing is since my DH and I share the same account they put DH last name on it while I still have mine on my ID. Hopefully it will work!

I applied online yesterday for an appointment today 12/20 but got rejected. Will try again today -finger crossed- .
We are leaving on sunday morning so I still have fiday and saturday. I will also try George V as we are not far from there.

Wish me luck!

Good luck!!! Let us know how it goes and I hope you get the bag of your dreams ☺️ What bag/size/colour are you going to ask for?

Thank you! I would love to get a K28 retourne, gold hardware, in Gris Asphalte. Or any grey (excepte gris mouette, I really don't like that color). I am also open to any shade of blue. Just not the pinks, red or orange shades.
I am also considering a B30 with the same specs :)

Unfortunately I wasnt able to secure an appointment today either. Tomorrow is my last chance for FSH! I will try George V as well.
Does anyone know how it works there? Should I just go ask for the bag straight ? I honestly am not interested into buying others stuff, I love the brand but I cannot afford to buy things I don't need/like just to secure my dream bag!

You should try Sevres... go in when they first open and go down to the leather goods section and ask to be put on the list. Let the SA know you are leaving soon.

Just returned from the FSH store with some nice loot in tow ☺️ My very first C24 in etoupe, PHW. Very happy with her and can’t wait to take her out for a spin:

Buying insufficient other stuffs may not warrant a wish bag too
Let alone that you only want a bk alone
Your best try would be fsh only
All the best

There is nothing wrong with trying at George V.. But based on experience is a little bit hard to ask only for bags at George V without any history. Since you are already in Paris might as well visit the new renovated store.. Good luck

I went to Sevres at opening as I have low hopes for my late appointment at FSH today (6:40 pm) and wanted to try my second-to-last chance. Nobody in that first cohort was offered any K/B and I heard that there was no morning delivery. I saw a black Lindy and magnolia Verrou being offered.

Has anyone had luck recently at FSH?
