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'.

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.

Today september 9th:
My appointment was at 4:30, i went an hour and half earlier and asked if they could accommodate me and they assigned me directly to a sa.
I waited 45 mins and as my appointment was not through the system i didnt not get any link of sms.
My SA was the best she offered me what i wanted exactly and even gave me other options, I was offered kelly 25 sellier in etoupe, as well as mini lindy swift in black.
She told me i could actually get more than a bag, she also showed me mini verrou both in normal leather and exotic leather.
And finally a constance mini in epsom which i bought for my aunt as its her dream bag.

I went to Sevres again this morning right when they opened and asked the SA I was looking for about any possibilities of leather cancellations. She asked what I was looking for and I said ideally a pink Kelly. She said unfortunately BKCs are for people with leather appointments only. If I was looking for a non-quota bag she probably would’ve been able to check for me but for quota bags I must have an appointment and there were no cancellations today. :sad:

However I still left with a So Black rodeo and another pegasus in the framboise/rose Sakura/rouge sellier(?) color-way. I don’t think I was supposed to be able to buy both bc when I said “I’ll take both of them” she seemed a little hesitant lol. But she probably felt bad that i still haven’t been able to get an appointment so she let me get both. Also when she checked up my profile she was like “oh wow you already got a rodeo from George V yesterday!… and a pegasus from here!” And I was like “LOL yeah”

I’m heading to Lyon tmr and hope I’ll have a better story to tell:amuse:

Does anyone know how the appointment system works? Is it first come first serve or more random? Like if I get on the website after 10:31 am, should I not even bother submitting a request?

Sorry for all the questions! My DH will be in Paris for work for two days and we're really hoping he gets an appointment. Thank you!

I finally got an appointment! But it’s for just before the the store closes.
Does anyone know if it would be possible to go earlier in the day when their stock isn’t completely dried up yet? Has anyone ever gone at an earlier time than their scheduled appointments before?

Yes- for me, my appt time kept changing online and the last update I saw was 1815 before I went at my original appt time around 1630. I waited about 45 min or so for an available SA. I overheard there were only 2 leather SAs working that day. Not sure if that was true or if the hostess just said that to deter people away when they asked about cancellations.

Side note- it was insane watching how rude people were to the leather hostess!

Thank you for the insight! I tried clicking into the link to track my appointment time but the URL just leads me to the appt request website.. and I don’t have a schedule code to enter into “appointment follow-up” either. So I’ll probably just go in start of day tomorrow to see if they can accommodate me earlier
