I think it does matter what store. I've heard of stores having 100+ people on the wait list. I was the 5th person on the list at my store when I was added in early March. It took just under a month to get the call that my bag was available for purchase.

Yea she didn't say how long the list was, and I didn't want to seem desperate asking (even though I king of am) :laugh:
 
What?! That's crazy!! (I am going to guess you are out of philly due to your username lol, I love it! Huge Phillies fan!) I can't believe the demand for it blew up so much in the past few months. I got mine in August and it really will be worth the wait. Fingers crossed yours comes in for your birthday!!

Isn't it? I am in Philly, you're right! It's also a play on my name which is Natalie. The Phillies are my absolutely favorite and I live right near the ballpark! I'm really hoping it come in June too! The man at LV seemed really surprised I've been waiting so long and said he's not sure why because my store (Atlantic City) has very few orders in for it.

I'm on the list at the store in Atlantic City NJ since 2/6 now and the man on the phone at LV said that he could see my store has very few orders but I should still expect to wait until June or July. I told him politely I just don't understand how I see the majority of people get their bags within 2-3ish weeks of requesting one yet I'm basically three months in and am being told it'll still be about another two months. If it really doesn't come until July that'll be almost half a year! He really couldn't answer me as to why I've been on a list for months now but see/hear so so many people getting them almost immediately so I'm a little confused as to why apparently Atlantic City seems to be getting none. I have a wonderful awesome SA who I know is trying her hardest to get me one but it just seems we're stalled. A month ago I was told I was first at my store and yet no budging still...so I come here to hold me over!

This is my first post back in ages!

That said this worries me because my SA told me my wait would likely only be 2-3 weeks and I gave her all my info last week. I wonder if it matters what store...

I honestly wouldn't worry about it just because my case seems like a really huge outlier compared to nearly every other story I've heard. I'm at the store in Atlantic City and he said my list is short. When I said that I was told I was first on the list there a month ago by LV, he told me that he can't see if that's true. I seriously wouldn't worry though, this just seems like a case of some bad luck on my end because almost every person I see post has gotten their bag in what seems like a month or less! I hope yours comes in soon!
 
lol, I called every week to see what number I moved up to. No shame in my game [emoji23]

I really wonder if this list is actually kept to, though. I was told I was #1 at my store in early March, but then when I come on here and see people who requested them let's say March 15th get them on April 1st (making up dates), it confuses me. If I've been on the list since February 6th, shouldn't I have gotten my purse before the person who requested it on March 15th, since I was "ahead" of them in line? The woman I first spoke with at 1-866 AND the SA at my store both told me that it's one whole list and purses are distributed as people come up on the list and that it wouldn't help to put myself on a list at another store like KOP because it would essentially move me down from where I was now because it doesn't give you multiple entries, if that makes sense. This is all just confusing to me haha once I get this one, no lists for me again! Yesterday I was told he was not able to see where I am on the list so now I just don't know what's going on hahaha

Is King of Prussia too far for you? Maybe you could try there?

Nevermind! Just say your other post lol

No worries haha! KOP and Atlantic City are about the same distance from where I am in Philly and I tend to go to Atlantic City because it's usually quieter and I have a really great relationship with one of the SAs there who is fabulous. I think this is me just having terrible luck! This is another reason why I love tPF - I can come and check out everyone's photos while I wait!
 
Hiii all,
I'm in Europe, so i don't know if that makes a difference, but i was on the list voor just 1 week when i received the call that my PM had arrived! When i made the reservation there where 17 people on the list and i was told that it would take about 6/8 weeks, so i was very surprised and happy ofcourse when i got the call just 7 days later!!

I picked her up today, here she is!

Isn't she perfect?

To all of you that are on the list, hope that your PM's will arrive very soon, but if it takes a little longer, she's definitely worth the wait!!

Try just watching the website. I ordered 2, a week apart from eachother. They seem to pop up early mornings or after lunchtime. You could even leave the page open and just refresh it whenever you think about it. I'll bet you get one this weekend ;)

Wow, that all sound really strange to me. It was my understanding that each store had its own list. I could see how the list would be longer in major cities but being number 1 on the list for weeks or months seems really odd. Each week that I called my local store I moved up at least one place on the wait list. They were also able to tell me how many bags were on order or in route to the store and even what day they were expecting them. Is there another local store that you could get on the list at? That's probably what I would try to do. As far as I know the list at different stores and online are completely separate. Good luck to you. It's really a lovely bag and worth the wait.
