This is the LOVELIEST story! I'm beyond pleased for you.
It reminds me of when I got offered a Birkin many moons ago by an SA who I had a great relationship with but with whom I spent maybe £350 in a year-sadly I couldn't afford the bag as I didn't want to ask my parents to help out as I was buying my 1st home.
Still haven't got a Birkin but one day...
Have a wonderful birthday! I'm smiling ear to ear!
your Birkin is so special and proof that sometimes magic does happen!

Hi all, new member here and first time poster! So I was offered a SO birkin 30 in Chèvre Noir exterior and Rose Pourpre interior with contrast stitching. It was rejected by the client who designed it! And get this .... this is my very first Hermes purchase and bag. The SA offered it to me after we was talking about my birthday coming up in 2 weeks and I had only came in to shop for a twilly and kelly necklace. Needless to say I was shocked considering I have zero purchase history. I only stop into the store to browse and get familiar with the brand. The twilly and necklace would be my first purchase. When I stop in, I alway chat with the same SA about life and my photography job and never brought up a birkin. Haven’t seen her since in awhile since COVID but alway emailed her to check on her! I guess strange things do happen! In any case I didn’t have the money for the bag and told her I would need to speak with my husband first. My husband, parents and grandma all put up the funds an hour later to buy the bag as my 27th birthday gift!!! Bag is currently in its box at my parents home until my birthday so I can’t take photos lol this is killing me!

I think you should wait for what you really want.... gold w/ghw. However, I will say gold w/phw is v nice too!
However for me, whenever I have settled... It was always the wrong decision bc I had to try to love it more than I love the original desire and that never works out well. I just love what I love so I can't force it.

It's probably just me but I do not like the new bronze color. That's just me.

I agree! I am not a fan of bronze.
I will wait for gold with ghw. Hopefully it will not take too long to come. Now the waiting game begins.

I wanted a birkin 25 in gold preferably with ghw. I was offered one with phw or the color bronze with ghw. Hardware is not a deal breaker for me, the color and size are the most important factors. What do you guys think I should do? :confused1:

Gold and bronze dore are sooooo different. As someone who just purchased a bronze dore, I'll admit it hasn't satisfied my desire for a gold b/k. You should pass and wait for gold!
