…or the most simple explanation of the client is lying. Heck, even if not intentionally being duplicitous, we’ve seen very strange interpretations of the definition of prespend even on this forum. “I got this with zero prespend! I’ve been working with my SA for four years but hadn’t bought anything that day before being offered!” Or “sure my profile with the store is high six figures but I just got a birkin last month and then got this one after just buying another pair of shoes!” Or my fave “I’ve been shopping with my SA for decades but this is my first QB offer and it happened on January 2, so obviously I had no prespend for it!”
There are still a few lucky ones who are able to get a QB with "little spending" (of course little is a relative term). Personally, I don't have an experience of being offered a QB without any spend at all.....from many years ago..until now. That said, I take what I see and read online with a grain of salt.
 
If this is the new practice at boutique (offering QB for new clients within 1 month time with less than 1:1 spend), then I can tell you that there have been known Long-time clients ceasing to support the boutique due to more aggressive selling practice to long-standing good clients in recent months, and this YouTuber case won’t leave a good tastes to many SF boutique clients.
Not implying this is the new practice at the boutique. But the sad truth is even if it was, H can still do whatever they want to do because the demand far exceeds the supply. I was just making general comments. Not referring to a particular YTuber too. Anyways, I hope you get what you are hoping for from H.
 
Did anyone see the YT vid of this woman getting a gold birkin30 less than 1 month as a client and with less than 1:1 ratio at the SF store? Good for her but its so discouraging and upsetting for those who have been loyal and spending and are still waiting.
Do you know what color/leather/size did she get? Could be a unpopular one that was turned down by many others

Just a general thought (not directed to you)…Replacing long-time good-standing clients with new comers whose spending power are not proven sure sounds like a strategy lol
 
I just watched her video. She says she spent less than 1:1 but she really didn't. She spent almost the exact amount of the retail cost of her B30 in the month prior to receiving the offer on that bag.

Of course, this is assuming she is being truthful.

My store is the SF location, and my SA asked me a long time ago what products I wanted. I wasn't in the position to buy a quota bag at the time so I didn't make a list. During my last visit she offered me a Picotin but it wasn't high on my priority list so I declined.
