Thank you for your reply. My SA has offered it but I don't want to get it if I have to wait another six month for my Kelly. :smile:
You should ask your SA then. It’s not technically a quota bag but given the current low inventory status, taking the Kelly cut may “check you off” your SAs list for the year, iykwim. That being said, given the low inventory, there is also a vastly reduced likelihood of you getting offered that full size Kelly that you want, regardless of buying the KC or not, before the end of the year anyway.

That is so true. I will ask my SA. I might have to wait for next year for the Kelly. He has been great so I don't want to push my luck either. Thank you for the advise.
 
No one is going to be able to give you an answer to this that will be helpful or applicable to your own situation. There isn’t a set spend for any offer, let alone per color. There are far too many factors, including many intangible factors, to make any one else’s experience relevant to your own. Where you shop (both country and actual store), how much you spend, what you spent it on, what other clients of your SA/store have purchased, what your store has ordered, which bags they’ve already received, how long you’ve been shopping, how long everyone else has been shopping, how many other clients at your store want a white size 25, how many other clients have already received a white size 25, how long it’s been since all requests for a white size 25 were made, which SA is on duty the next time a white size 25 is delivered, how long it’s been since your SA has been granted a coveted quota bag to sell, if your SA thinks of you above all her other clients the next time she gets a white size 25, how many bags each of the other clients who want a white size 25 have on each of their wishlists and what priority this bag would be on their list, etc etc etc.

The only things in your control which will help you are to: shop often, shop generously, and be a pleasure to deal with while being patient. Everything else is outside of your control.

Understand your point. Everyone is different but I was told that White is one of the hardest to get. That's why I am curious on people's stories.

If you have a relationship with an SA, it might be your best bet to enquire if such a bag could be ordered for you at a future podium, that way you would know if it actually might be available for you. If the store has not ordered one in that size and color, you're going to be waiting a long time (forever).......

A white B/K isn’t popular, quite the contrary. White is hard to get, because there are very few stores that order it, unless they have a specific client in mind. They won’t take a chance of ordering a such a delicate colour 99+% of their clients would not buy, while they could also order for example a black one (and easy sell) instead. Unlike what some might think, it’s not like they receive the full range of colours/bags shipped to them from Paris, but the store decides what to order mostly based on the needs of their clientele.
 
Does anyone know:

Does prespending reset after you accept a quota bag offer? Or does it reset by the end of the year December? I just spent 3:1 and got offered. My SA is making me pick up some items on my wishlist on the day I pick up the bag. Will it count towards my next quota or get reset by the end of the year?
