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.

Yes, Me and my DH both have 4 years purchase history with the same leather department SA and twice a year. She offered me b/k every time we went to Pairs but only normal leather. For last two times, I asked my SA about croc b/k and she told me no immediately not even check if there’s any stocks. So I just want to know do I need to reach an amount to being offer a croc

I think you should talk to your SA that you are interested in exotic b/k and ask her what should you do to get offered. I think it should be ok to ask that question since you already have an established relationship with your SA

@Cappico Do you buy many of their RTW?
I once spoke with a lady who managed to score 1B 25 and 1K 25, both in croco leather in FSH just from her last trip. She said she never make any appointments at FSH but she does love their RTW and purchase many of their RTW. So each time after shopping at the RTW she will just casually ask and they will always give her a bag. She also doesn't mention she has a specific SA she works with as she never requested an appointment.
I think maybe spending a lot on RTW will be the key to getting croco B/K?

I do spent on RTW but I can’t say a lot
but every time when I made an appointment with my SA, she will ask me what kind of bags I want first, once we finished on bags then we will goto other department to choose things. so she doesn’t even know how much I will spend on other items

Hi Lovelys! Will be going to Paris with DH at the end of the month and hoping to score a b25. (We all have to dream!)... getting in on Sunday and will be in Paris until Friday. Do you think there is a chance of scoring a b25 at the beginning of the week since they will maybe have more bags stocked for the beginning of the week? Or is there no method to that madness? Thanks ❤️❤️

It seems harder to get an appointment at FSH with the new (ish) online system. I was there last week and tried 5 times but failed to get an appointment for me and my husband , ie 10 tries. I had the same problem last year. In fact I have not gotten an appointment since the switch to the online system! Those of you who managed to get an appointment are really LUCKY! It’s almost like winning the lottery!

Just go with the plan- make your appts on saturday for Monday. If you are rejected and you want, get to either GV or Sevres when they open and request an appt. If you are lucky, then great, if not rinse and repeat, and you still have the entire afternoon to enjoy Paris. Read above for other "tips" ( polite, knowledgeable etc). I ( and others had great luck at the other stores, ( without buying other things) so do not count them out). Good luck and please keep us posted!!
