Thanks. I have told him something along the line that I don’t want to shop anymore until I get an offer (mainly because I’m all shopped out this tax season). Ever since he’s been ignoring me. Not even an emoji reply.

Not sure which of the 3 stores you shop at. If it’s SCP or BH, 15k is probably the usual pre-spend before the pandemic. Friend’s friends are dropping at least 20k to get an offer these days and these people have been long term Hermes clients. You can consider talking to the SM and switch SA. This way, at least you won’t lose the pre-spend or you just keep waiting… until the quota bag shows up (but kinda doubt it with how the bag shortage is at the moment and how competitive these two stores are). I was in similar situation at BH… I switched store and had to start all over again…. Was it a good decision? Not sure since the pre-spend at my new store is rumored to be 20-25k or even 30k now. Looking back, maybe I should have just purchased a fine jewelry item (preferably with diamonds) or a watch, push my spend above 15k and at least get a quota bag before I switch. I hope you can get a quota bag soon!!! This so called Hermes journey is for people who are patient and don’t keep track of the pre-spend… and that’s not for me :-s)

I did also switch to a new store and was also thinking I should at least get something before I switch but it’s ok, I’m in a much happier relationship now.

Hi everyone,
I’m traveling to LA for a few days. I want to ask if anyone can share any SA contacts. I am hoping to find a few RTW or shoes when I was there. Totally understand chances of any bag is nil. Just want to find clothing which is not available in my country. TIA

I would recommend one, but I think everyone recommends through PM or "conversations" now or is it okay to say it out in the open?

New Hermes Stock word of a lifetime “ Dry Stock” , I’m on year 3 of waiting to be offered a bag and am beyond over it .

So sorry to hear this. Stock at BH for bags is very, very low. I am a long time client and was offered a bag there recently, but it was a very expensive exotic, which I declined. Unless you spend $40k+ on non leather, preferably in one visit, do not expect a leather B or K at BH today. They do not have the leather inventory at this time.

It’s so disheartening to not be able to purchase something you’ve been dreaming of for years and years . My SA said they had exotics at Costa Mesa as well , but I said I do not want one as I only want a leather B or K . What is wrong with Hermes and their inventory? I haven’t seen 1 B or K get purchased from Costa Mesa . Never have I ever even seen one on display . I asked if they were ever going to get any inventory ever , and they just always say it takes time . I’m like , 3 years is a long time to wait for inventory . This is horrible business practices by a company . Ramp up production before the recession kicks in . Which it will eventually and by then they won’t be able to get rid of those expensive bags at all . Sell them to consumers while the getting is good .
