Reading this thread is making me wonder if starting an H journey is even worth it! I'm either BH or SCP (I prefer South Coast in general to Rodeo Drive, but I'm in LA County, so I'm theoretically open to either), but it sounds like these stores are just insanely competitive.
Since you prefer SCP, try there first. I live in the South Bay and am more comfortable driving north. I shopped at both stores initially, but I found myself feeling more comfortable at the BH store. Try both. Topanga Canyon Hermes is opening sometime this summer and you may find that this new store may be a good fit for you if it is not too far. Good luck.

I hope Topanga opens at some point! I feel like it's been under construction forever.
 
Thanks! I've been stalking the website and haven't seen any Evelynes. But I keep looking. This is going to sound blasphemous, but i have no interest in a a quota bag so don't care about any pre spend. Although a Lindy is on my list of wants. I'm about the same distance to BH and SCP and not too much farther to SD, but SCP is the easiest to get to. I miss the days of being able to walk in and get a bag! Have done it before at SCP with an Herbag and in Vegas with my Picotin. Hate the game but love the bags! May have to plan a trip to Vegas as it seems that a non QB may be easier for a walk in to obtain.
I shopped both stores too...i felt for BH easiser if not quota bags. in scp everything spent first !

I shop at scp and it took about a year and a 3:1 pre spend before I was offered a qb. I was clear with my SA though that I only wanted a mini Kelly and those are much harder to get at this location and require manager approval. But from my experience everyone at scp is super friendly and pleasant to work with
 
I bought a few things online (evelyne and a constance to go) and im wondering if they would have counted towards my prespend if I bought them at the SCP Boutique with my SA. I feel like its hard to get any bag so i stalked to site. I do shop in store but im wondering if i should return my items i got from hermes.com and be more patient to try to get them in store. And Do non quota handbags count towards your prespend anyway
