Spend threshold for B/K/C

[jimmyshoogirl]

Tip: wear your Apple Watch and they won’t ask. Except they may tell you to consider their watch straps.

None has ever asked me to look at watches. That’s because my watch has a wait list worse than B&K and it isn’t a Rolex.

Thanks but I’m not worried at all. She can ask or suggest all she wants lol. If I want to buy it I will if I don’t I will not. I understand it’s her job to sale or make suggestions and that’s where it ends for me.

Besides she only mentioned it once when she was feeling me out. I get it.

Constance is not a quota bag. A pre-existing favorable relationship is likely necessary to obtain a Constance.

Hi! If I am at a 1.7:1 prespend, will getting a Constance interfere with receiving a QB later? As in, does it send the prespend back or affect it at all?

If it only pushes back my QB, I don’t mind as I would need to save up again after the Constance

I don’t think you are actually at 1.7:1 as only your current store spending matters. Your SA sounds like she’s going to make you purchase more items before even getting the Constance so I wouldn’t bother and instead I’d keep my eye on the bag I really want. From your other posts it does sound like you would need to ”rebuild” your profile again with the store and SA to get the kelly.

Not sure if this the correct thread for this question. Does H limit the number of duplicate items purchased? I was shopping at my local boutique a couple of weeks ago and purchased a coat, an impulse purchase but the coat was stunning. Anyhow, he was saying that many of their RTW sells out before hits the floor, which I knew. But he also did say that there was a client earlier in the day who purchased 2 of the same coat that purchased. I commented that if RTW is so sought after why isn’t there a limit on the number of duplicate items one can purchase. He smiled and rolled his eyes giving me look. Of course my thinking was this client is purchasing to fast track for a QB? ‍♀️

If you really like an article of clothing, it isn't unusual to want to have a duplicate to have once the original wares out or to store at another property to avoid luggage while travelling. From my experience, there's no limit to duplicate purchasing at H.

From that slang, you are from Singapore ? Fastest cheapest way - find a ‘kaki‘ who is super VIC with Hermes then you won’t need to pre-spend.

Ya, I'm Singaporean.

It's easy to get C18 in resell market, but hard to find Kelly Mini Rouge in ostrich leather...

My crush abit demanding. She doesn't want to build profile but it's almost impossible to get a brand-new Kelly Mini Rouge ostrich in resell market

That one…getting one preloved is already difficult. Getting a brand new one will require a really super Vic ’kaki’ who will be happy to give her a way for a S/O bag (even then, there is the issue of limited colours) ,or else super good luck if she doesn’t want to build a profile.

Hello everyone.

I am a newbie member wanna to know how to build profile in Hermes boutique in order to purchase Constance 18?

Roughly need to spend how much and do i need to "Por" my SA?

Thanks you.

I was offered my first C18 this summer (rose Sakura chèvre phw) after shopping with the same SA at a store not in my city. My pre-spend was about .5:1 - purchased several sandals, gold pendant, and twilly. I asked my SA if I could make a bag wishlist so we sat down and talked together about models, size, and colors I was looking for. I definitely did not spend as much as many others on this thread!

you will need a SO for that spec... good luck

Hello, I was told by my SA for a B25 it would be a year or more wait but B30 I can get very soon in like a month or two, however, I only want B25. Wanting to know if this wait in NYC is true now or if me shopping more will help expedite? Is it also true that usually first offers are B30 and B25 are hard to get as first offer ?Thank you

There are no rules. Sounds like your SA is trying to set reasonable expectations. Also it seems like B25 is in lower production these days compared to K25s and K20s but demand for it is still high so the line is long. Spending more definitely won’t hurt your efforts but isnt necessarily promised to speed things up either, especially if it’s truly a supply issue. Be prepared to spend in the neighborhood of 3:1 minimum for a first quota bag B25 in NYC these days.

Shopping/buying more won’t guarantee that you’ll get what you want or get what you want faster in my opinion. If you really only want a B25 in the grand scheme of things waiting a year or so is not that long of a time. If you want it now, just buy from consignment.

My SA told me that a 25 in either a Kelly or Birkin was unlikely for a first offer (this was last year) and my first offer ended up being a K25 in a neutral color a year later. Time flies and I didn’t feel like it was that long of a wait for my small store.

I see thank you so much, this is so helpful to know

I see, many thanks! Is your home store nyc and what is the spend ratio if you don’t mind, I don’t mind the wait yes but I didn’t know there is such a wait time. Congrats on your K25!!

No, but I am in the US. I don’t have an exactly number because I don’t keep track but I believe I spent about 1.5:1 based on rough math on things I purchased. I love the shoes and 140cm format scarves.

My experience, reading things on the forum and discussions with my SA lead me to believe SAs care a lot about genuine interest in the brand. I never thought I’d be offered a bag based on reading about the high spend people do, but I bought things I liked and wear a ton. My SA prompted the conversation about what bags I would be interested in after a few months, but even then I assumed it was a long shot. I am not a huge spender compared to many who shop at my store, but I visit every few months when there is something I am looking for (typically a particular scarf).

Oh I see that’s interesting to know. I am currently at 1.5:1, hopefully I get lucky like you do, however, my store is super competitive though, thank you again
