Wow, lovely. But did you have the same sales as your last appointment in Nov?
I am a bit confused by your greetings. But maybe you meant he was the same sales for you in Nov?

so, did you buy wallet in the end? If you don’t mind I ask?

thanks for sharing!

I never met the same SA.
I remember him because last years my friend got online appointment with him (I was with my friend) and he took my friend to the corner and said dont be so excited it is not a b or k so I remember him since then

Thanks for all the useful information from this thread.

I just come back from Paris and this is what I got. A mini Constance in barenia leather and gold hardware. It is so soft and cute. It is my first time in Paris and I got the appointment on 21st December. I got this mini con and 2 mini picotins. And one is under my boyfriend’s account. So I guess they can put the bag under other people’s account even they don’t have an appointment. My boyfriend got an appointment the next day, but we got nothing, no BKC(we all know it is a lie). I think the reason is the SA saw my boyfriend’s purchasing history and found he just bought a picotin yesterday. What do u guys think? And we will be back to Paris in January. Do you think we can still get appointment within a month?

Gorgeous bags!! I’m in love with Barenia.

How addictive are these bags!

A couple was offered a mini Lindy in what looked like Bleu Nuit at George V when I was there.

And attached - photos of the Kelly.

 

[Klaneckya]

Hi,

were you offered the Kelly in George v? What color is this Kelly? It’s lighter than gold color..

 

[inch]

Kelly offered at FSH. Etoupe Bolide was offered at George V.

Colour of the Kelly is Veau which is a deeper orange than the Hermes orange.

I think you mean Feu (Fire) as Veau translates to leather.

on your new Kelly.

I just checked the receipt, you’re right! It is Feu!

 

[S2jewels]

Wanted to ask if it is ok to ask for a specific SA on my leather appointment?

Because I wanted the same SA who helped me in my last visit..

 

[DH sucker]

Congrats on the recent scores! We’re planning to be at FSH next week. A bit concerned with the strikes that our train from Germany on Sunday might be cancelled. Anyone else dealing with this?

My in laws were there last week with no issues (they arrived by train), but it can really be a hit or miss from what I have heard from other people.
