I managed to snag this off the website and kinda in two minds about it... should I keep it or wait for one in bordeaux swift (my dream combo!)?
This is in deep blue, clemence, phw. I love my blues too and this is a rich blue. Very different from the other blues I have (sapphire, blue de minuit, blue nuit..)

Thank you everyone for telling me to wait for my desires combo! I just texted my SA and she indicated it is quite a wait for a mini lindy and would be next year before my turn as they are not receiving much stock for it.
I dug out my blue bags and did a comparison. My picotin is in blue nuit, constance in blue de minuit and the calvis are blue agate.
Deep blue is nowhere near being ‘deep’ and is a rich royal kind of blue

This is so stunning...I would keep it if it doesn't bother you that it isn't in your first choice!

Bleu de minuit is really pretty! I missed this color.

what's the secret of buying online? I've signed up for aupdater and never seem to get it. always out of stock

There is no secret really. Programs like aupdater help but the item might not become available until hours or even a day later so the website will just keep on showing out of stock or 404.

In my experience, there is still lots that can go wrong even after you pay. Like how i was told the colour that I originally purchased is no longer available. They could have just cancelled my order but they didn't so I considered myself very lucky.

Like previous posts mentioned, you will need luck and lots of persistence pays off. HTH!

So does this mean that they post the item on the website first and a few hours later it becomes actually available for purchasing? That would make sense because sometimes the mini Lindy pops up and is immediately out of stock I keep thinking that there's no way someone was that quick lol!

Sometimes, yes! In my case, the item was posted around noon and it kept on showing out of stock until 3pm-ish.

One way to tell if an item is really out of stock is that Hermes usually removes the item from the website pretty quickly if it is sold. When I saw the mini lindy still showing on the website 1 hour after it was posted, even though it said out of stock, i had a feeling that it will become available later and it did :biggrin:
