Wow that is a reaaaaaalllllly long time to wait!
Are you shopping regularly? Even for a 25, that is a long time. It seems like a lot more 25's lately so hopefully you get yours soon!

Bellevue unfortunately has a really high pre spend. I hope you get your bag soon!
Anything purchased from your SA or by your SA for you counts towards your prespend. Not sure where you heard that
Agree. As long as the online purchase is made from a link that your SA sends you, it should be counted towards your spending profile. Where did you get this info?
Has anyone from Bellevue store given up and changed stores? I want to get my first qb, but then maybe it'd be worthwhile exploring other options... it's just easier when the store is physically near.._.
Unfortunately I don't think a spend of 1:1 over 3 years is going to be competitive for a size 25 in any store in the US. I believe your SA is just trying to be kind by telling you she is trying when she knows there is no way her manager is going to approve your profile. It's kind of cruel actually to lead you on. I've got to recommend either upping your spend considerably or going resale where the prices are coming down anyway.
Have you tried out a K28 instead of 25? It's really not that much bigger and probably easier to obtain (Esp at Bellevue).
Did you get this information from your SA or just someone random? I have never heard this
I agree. In my case that is what happened. But i can acknowledge that it is probably rare. The first time i met my SA i went in to look for shoes and he asked if i wanted to look at some bags (non-quota) and of course i said yes. After i had spent about $3-4k over a few visits he asked if i was interested in a Birkin or Kelly and what my preferences were! Mind you I had never talked about bags unless he brought the topic up. Got my Birkin 25 at 1.4:1.
Imo it’s best to not bring up the topic of quota bags unless you have had a few consistent visits with the same SA and have spent a good few $$$$ in different metiers. In my boutique it seems 1:1 or around 1.5:1 is still a thing so i think spending about half the presumed ratio for your store and then asking may be a good idea (if bags have not previously been discussed).
It’s best if your SA is the one who brings it up but it’s okay to initiate the topic if they don’t and you have a decent profile already.
Same! Never heard this until now. So many rumors and false info so it’s good to know where info is coming from.
I was kind of wondering if this was why I had not received an offer. My spend is quite high and I am seemingly liked by my SA as well as others (they come over to say hello and comment on what I’m buying, ask about my kids, etc). So I was scratching my head about where the QB was.
