Is there an SA that you can recommend or helped you? I might go tomorrow.

MQUOTE="meg8182000, post: 33035885, member: 561811"]I was able to be at the Meatpacking store right at opening and was lucky enough to score an all black rodeo. They did indeed have a lot of rodeos in all sizes and colors but in the short time that I was there, I saw people buying multiple so don’t know how many were even left after the initial hour. I’m not saying they don’t have any, but can’t say how many or what sizes/colors. They certainly could restock since then.

It never hurts to just go in and see what they have. Try getting the name of a SA there who can keep an eye out for you going forward.[/QUOTE]

I'm new to the Hermes club -- loving my new-to-me vintage Herbag. To celebrate, Rodeo is a very cute addition. I love the look so much, I'd love to try it on my other purses. Would it be weird to see Rodeo on a non-Hermes luxury bag? Gosh, I'm so nervous to even post such a suggestion... Mix/matching is fine, right? At the cost that Rodeo goes for, even in the pre-loved market, I could get more utility/cost-per-wear out of it, if I use it on other bags...

As someone who has been waiting weeks for all black, it's a little disappointing to hear that they were allowing people to buy multiples. I guess maybe they were purchasing for family members or friends. But more than likely they will show up on ebay. Sigh. I should have sent my SIL who lives in NYC to pick one up. Hindsight! I'm hoping I misunderstood and maybe they were just buying different colors and not all blacks!!

I definitely think she meant they had multiple colors. From her previous posts, it sounded like there were only two all black ones; one PM and one MM. I do wonder for a completely new store opening like this (as opposed to just remodels) where do they get their staff from and if it's mostly SAs whom are completely new to H, do they educate them on the true rarity of certain items?

Coloradolvr, I’m sorry for any confusion my previous post caused. Acrowcounted is correct and what I meant was that some people were allowed to buy more than 1 rodeo but no one got multiple all black rodeos. The store only had 2 all black rodeos - a PM and a GM. Like you, I had been looking for the all black one for months. I was the first customer to enter the store, asked immediately about the all black and was overjoyed to get the PM size. The GM one went to the person who was 2nd in line. They went quick.

I don’t know about the staff and if they came from other stores or if they were brand new. Probably both. The SA that assisted me did say that when they were stocking the rodeo drawer and he saw the all black that he knew they would go fast.

I know one of the Chicago SAs transferred to the meatpacking store. I believe it’s mostly seasoned SAs and maybe 1-2 new hires. From what I’ve been told, it seems there’s an annual survey to gauge interest in transferring or staying at their current store.

Oh whew! I can get that visual out of my head ;) I will continue to hold out hope that I will eventually get one. Thank you for putting my mind at ease. Congratulations on your black beauty!
