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 went this morning. Waited on a reasonable length line but only 3 or 4 SAs were taking clients. I was on my best beHavior while on the line. Asked for the items I wanted, SA wrote them down without asking for my passport. She came back and said no and to try back "around the holidays" yikes hopefully I misheard that.
 
I finally got lucky last saturday(birkin 35 etoupe taurillon clemence).I went several times to FSH(6 times to be precise) and last time I was told to come by the end of September,which sounded so far way,so I still decided to retry at the beginning of September and got lucky.So,there is a hope and am sure that this month there will be plenty of threads with beautiful hauls.

Stunner! Worth trying 6 times. Congrats!

Did you give them this specific color every single time?
 
First six times i asked for raisin or graphite(i was pretty upset to discover by myself that they no longer made the graphite one and none of SAs told me that).On my seventh visit ,i asked for gold,caramel,taupe,etoupe or etain color.
