My understanding of “personal shoppers” in the H world is that they are just people who will scour the resale world for you to find your spec on the shelf of one of the resellers from their network. Then you pay double the fee (theirs and the original source’s). Maybe I’m naive but I would find anyone who claims they can get any spec first hand from an H store on demand highly suspect. They’d have to have a unicorn relationship with a unicorn store that always has every version of every item readily available. I don’t think such a thing exists (and a good hint is usually when there is no 100 page long tpf thread on a topic, that topic isn’t a thing.) Best of luck though and please let us know if you find someone!

Interesting. Yea, I searched up that thread and actually most that are being talked about are resellers and not PS. Occasionally on IG I do see PSs buying directly from H boutiques in Europe (mainly Paris) since I am sure stock-wise they have more than here in the U.S. However I have no idea how much they charge for that service (and I am too afraid to ask since I don't know whether they are actually legit...). FP actually has the exact specs I want in stock but I am not willing to pay for the price they ask for just yet for a pre-owned one (though it seems to be in great condition).

These people that call themselves Personal Shoppers work with resellers sourcing things for clients at a premium.
I daresay most of their posts are fed through to them from resellers.
I would be careful with anyone who advertises their business through instagram

I reached out to Jaidifinds. They are popular and quite established. They said they only source from the boutiques and authorized dealers and that’s the only way they can guarantee authenticity (so in H case, they only buy at H stores worldwide). I haven’t proceed with them yet as I’m also checking with other reputable and bigger PSs to compare pricing. I wouldn’t lump all PSs into one category just coz they all use IG. Every business uses IG these days. It’s more important for buyers to do their homework first.

Jaidifinds' prices are out of this world! I asked her about a few items last year and OMG! I think she also works with other PS in the world, so there are multiple layers of fees to pay.
I have a PS in Paris, she refuses to deal with any QB bags because of all the nonsense about the resale, but she always helps me finding shoes, slg, scarves, rtw, non QB bags, and her fees are so low compared to others! And now with the strong dollar, it's really interesting!

Jaidifinds’ price is alright for me so I’m using her now. So far what I appreciate is that she is patient in answering all my questions. So we shall see.

Has anyone seen the Hermes HAC Rock? From the Men's runway show. Wondering if any store has any allocations for them yet. I haven't seen any in any store personally yet. Any help would be very appreciated (any color and leather is fine as well):

So Jaidi Finds not only found me my Mini Roulis directly from an H boutique in Europe but they found one in the rarer Barenia Faubourg which was not what I initially expected in less than two weeks (their initial estimate was 3-4 months)! For those who have no time to search and don’t wanna play the H game, I would highly recommend Jaidi Finds. She did say for quota bags she’d only assist established clients. And here’s my baby!
