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 was at my appointment at FSH yesterday and was told one didn’t need an appointment for leather wallets or Rodeos. I had a very successful appointment and will report back when we are back in the states. The only advice that I can give that I do not think has been mentioned is to ask your concierge to assist you in making an appointment. Thanks to him, I got one at FSH my first day in Paris (I personally did the online appointment request on Saturday and was denied) and got my holy grail handbag. I did do the opposite of what is suggested here and went all in as far as being incredibly specific on everything. Go big or go home. LOL. It worked for me but I definitely do not recommend this for everyone. But, over the years I have declined countless handbags at FSH because they weren’t the ONE. Again, I will share photos and the entire story when I get back to the states.


So glad to hear that you were successful. As I posted back in March my concierge got me an appointment on my second day in Paris at George V. I think it makes a big difference if your concierge has contacts to do this!

Hello guys! I’ve just confirmed a super spontaneous trip to Paris. Will be there from Saturday till Tuesday. Really hoping I can get an appointment!
I have a modest collection of H bags. This time I’m interested in getting something small - mini Kelly THE dream bag. Does anyone know if mini Kelly is harder to score than regular B/Ks?? Don’t see a lot of posts on mini Ks these days..
tia!!

I think it is harder to score but not impossible. Good luck!
