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.

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!

Agree! I tried 5 times fir me and DH last year and we both got on fifth try in a Sat and we were unable to get any bags at appointment- I really wanted a picotin or roulis. This year we both tried 5 times again and only DH got on 5th try. We both have purchase history there too.
Hope you at least enjoyed Paris!

Beautiful sellier kelly! :smile:

My appointment request got rejected on my first try but I got an appointment on my second try. I went for the appointment prepared to hear ‘we have no bags’ and was ready to just pick up other items like shoes and belts. The SA checked what I wanted and if I wanted any exotics. Imagine my excitement when she came back with a tower of boxes! I really wanted a sellier 25 or 28 but was told they had no selliers in any color that day. :facepalm::facepalm: I did however score 2 bags and several other small items, including a vert verone rodeo as a ‘consolation’. :yahoo::yahoo:

P.S I still want a sellier K!

I also played an SO for a k25 in ostrich at FSH in early November 2018. Still no news...... ((getting impatient))). I’ll be in Paris this summer. I hope the timing works and it will be ready by then!?

so happy for you all-the wait will be well worth it.
Here's a ( probably foolish ) question, born of relative newbie ignorance- can I assume that placing an SO in Paris is analogous to placing one in the USA, in terms of having a "long standing" relationship with an SA? I have been very lucky and have purchased a number of Bs in Paris, but certainly cannot be called a VIP or anything like that. Especially as it's a bit more difficult to connect with a previous SA ( although I DO have everyone's cards and emails to "warn " them of my coming. Any tips? Thanks so much

Not necessarily. I was offered an SO out of the blue in Paris from an SA I had met that week. You never know!

Please share what you got! I actually wanted a retourne kelly but was offered a sellier. I took it since sellier is SO pretty. Figure I will learn to love and can not be too fussy at fsh.
