Interesting that 25 is easier than 30. That being said, my advice would be to just continue being you. Don’t feel like you have to spend an inordinate amount as it likely will not speed up how long you’ll need to wait for the bag. What they ordered from podium will eventually show up and you’ll get the bag when you get it. Patience is a virtue with all things H.

you are totally right. I don’t think spending more will speed anything up at this point. I think I will just kind of pop in every now and then. Patience is a virtue isn’t it? It’s just kind of exhausting at this point 😑 I thought it would be easier to get a 30 than a 25 as well.
The wait for the first bag is always the worst emotionally. But when you get it, it’s really memorable.
Yasss, I was gonna say to continue to see your SA once in awhile so they remember you when a bag does come in. If a 25 is what you like then that’s awesome if it’s easier for your SA to get that since smaller bags are still the hot trend.
That was my second Birkin ever. It is a verso, Gris Mouette/Agate. The picture was taken in Hermes as it was going to the spa. It is actually lighter in the daylight. This is one of my 2 travel Birkins, B35.

Thank you! The inside is blue?? What a stunning bag! My dream SO bag would be a dark blue B40 with an orange interior.
Thanks for sharing. As someone who’s been purchasing Hermes items including bags for over 15 years, I can tell you that this is a slow process. It’s about delayed gratification along with a lot of patience. The more you can embrace this the better! Good luck!
I’ve been told that B25 is easier than B30 as well. Apparently my store ordered a whole bunch of B25 since that’s what most people want over B30s. My last round of offer my SA only had 1 B30 to show me, but had 7 B25 that I could choose from if I wanted that size.
Whew! I’m so glad to read this! Thank you and it helps to know every bit of spend still counts and will help me towards my next bag.
To my experience is getting a 1st qb was hard and it took longer time and also 2:1 ratio spent for me. Also it depends on what the spec of bag u are asking for too.
Sooo…can I say how annoying it is seeing on Tik Tok all these people making videos saying Hermes has “dropped” their prespend for quota bags because of the Walmart Birkin. Like those of us in the game knows there’s so many factors involved and they have no credible source to based this off of. We have seen reports of prespend that’s 5:1 or less than 1:1. But I doubt USA Hermes will suddenly stop prespend and allow for a flood of quotas to saturate the market because of the Walmart Birkin.
My SA just told me that it will be harder to get QB’s in 2025. Maybe he meant harder for me, but it seemed like in general it would be harder or that they may be receiving less from Paris. To stay on topic, IMO I do not see prespend being reduced as a result of duplicates.
If I were Hermes, that would be the last thing I would do. The market is being flooded with fakes so to fight it, I would flood the market with the real ones? Doesn’t make sense. I see them raising spend if anything.
