Has anyone gotten a black epsom K25 offer recently? Really digging this one but not sure what the recent stock looks like for this one

Yes got that offer earlier this month. Sellier K25 black.
Since my last QB offer not including the purchase of a non QB, probably 1.5-1. (1 being 10k)
I was offered a black K25 in Epsom last week and will pick it up this Wednesday. Black/Noir is an absolute classic and the size 25 is the most popular, so I guess they should be offered regularly.
Between 1.2 and 1.5. Not sure if the purchase of a NQB (Picotin) counts towards presend or not.
TYSM, I was a little worried there since noir is a classic color and an absolute favorite that it would be difficult to obtain
Based on my shopping and a few friends in California small qbs in noir are hard to come by. All of us had to get a couple of other colors before finally getting black (took 4+ years, obviously with waiting in between accepted qb offers), even though noir was top in some of our wishlists and we keep hinting/remindinf. Seems like they order more gold bags in our store.

Update: I am happy to provide my data on acquiring QBs and non-QBs in the US. (I am done with it, so why not? 😅)
I have purchased 7 bags from the US-based boutiques and 4 of them are considered non-QBs.
Data points:
I started my H journey in the summer of 2023 in the US, and today is my last day of H journey in the US as well. I will focus only on the European boutiques. I hope everyone enjoys the H shopping.

Do SAs ask to reconfirm wishlists just to be…nice? For context, I never bring up bags with my SA; usually my SA will bring it up during our shopping appointments. Recently, my SA wanted to reconfirm the colors on my wishlist, which made me excited and hopeful, but confused at the same time because my prespend isn’t close to qualify for a bag imo, especially since the one on my wishlist is highly coveted and our store rarely gets shipments of it. But I feel like there’s no point in asking to reconfirm a wishlist unless the SA is actively trying to find a bag for you, unless they’re just trying to be nice lol. My previous qbs were obtained with relatively low prespend, but my current prespend is even lower than that.
She might be trying to get you something but is having a hard time fulfilling your wish.
So my SA knows I really only love pink bags (my fav color), but it’s difficult to get that at my store because all the high spenders are natural tone girlies so that’s what our store mostly has.
At my last visit, my SA was like “does it have to be pink? Would Craie work?” Then she offered me a Constance in that color.
My SA also recently reached out to confirm my wishlist. I think it’s because I am nearing 6 months from my last QB so my SA wants to be sure what I want before submitting me for a bag. But really it’s anyone’s guess.
interesting to see more people I wonder if its time of the year? Two of my friends told me this recently happened to them the past 2 weeks, both are at 4:1 and 3:1 for their 1st and second so maybe they're preparing for the next round of submissions?
