what are you waiting to get from hermes: a kelly bag
why the wait (don't be shy to mention "special order." a wait is a wait): many expenses right now that have to take priority.
how long do you think it will be (and why): anywhere from 2-7 years. 2 because finances change sometimes (especially with freelance or consulting work, when there is time for it), or 7 years because sometimes they don't. :P
how do you feel about that: you wouldn't think it, but the PF really helps because it is both vicarious fun and i feel proactive because i'm learning more about hermes.
 
What: 35cm Rouge H Birkin w/pall hw.....
Why: After this month? Need to recoup my finances.
How Long: At LEAST one year because of the "Why" factor.
 
What: 35 chocolat box souple Kelly, 35 Clemence/Togo brown Birkin, 35
Thalassa Blue Birkin

Why wait: waitlisted for Kelly and brown Birkin, trying to place special
order for Thalassa Birkin...

How long and why: the Kelly and brown Birkin will arrive with Autumn
deliveries after the end of August...the Thalassa,
if available, minimum next spring/summer

How do you feel: OK 'cause I can sell some stuff in the meantime and
save up...;)
 
what are you waiting to get from hermes: A chocolate Chevre Kelly 32 or Turqouise Chevre Plume 28
why the wait: I want something very rare and specific and, um, I JUST bought a Birkin!
how long do you think it will be (and why): Maybe 1-2 years
how do you feel about that: Impatient as always but resigned to wait for my perfect bag...

what are you waiting to get from hermes: everything. but for right now, a Birkin in either chocolate, blue jean or gold in 30cm or 35cm (2nd choice)
why the wait (don't be shy to mention "special order." a wait is a wait): on the NM wait list but since my hubby just bought a dental practice, I am need to wait a while before making any purchases.
how long do you think it will be (and why): anywhere from 1-2 years. Longer if hubby's dental practice is slow to get going.
how do you feel about that: it sucks, but I know it is the right thing to wait a bit before going on my birkin hunt.

You are a sweetheart! Thank you so much! Need all the good luck and karma I can get right now!:biggrin:
 
what are you waiting to get from hermes: a brown or black 35cm birkin (preferably chevre)
why the wait (don't be shy to mention "special order." a wait is a wait): I want one bag directly from Hermes, and I had to place my name on a waitlist.
how long do you think it will be (and why): They said between 1-2 years. That's OK...I need that long to save for it.
how do you feel about that: I hate waiting. But I think I can wait for what I really want. The PF is a good and an evil for me. It's nice to live through all of you, but then it makes me want everything right NOW! And yes, it's nice to live through Shopmom!!!
 
waiting for an indigo or cognac 31 bolide & 35 cognac birkin
why waiting for my SA's phone call & time to save $$$$
how long & why: i cannot seem to say goodbye to my potiron togo plume with gold hardware but i know it has come time to sell her. I really want a bolide for everyday. i will never sell my kelly ever ever!!!!!
how do i feel about that: fine! its all relative. i just lost my diamond earrings and i am sick about it. i cleaned them (in my house) and the rest is a blank. going to the gym. i never want another pair of diamond earrings as long as i live. its Hermes or nothing. sorry im just venting.
angie
 
Oh NO, arcangel.....my mother lost one of her diamond studs down the bathroom sink drain and wound up taking the plumbing apart BY HERSELF (and if you knew my Mom you'd know how big of a deal THAT was) and finally found it. She never took those things out of her ears again!

I hope yours show up for you.....I know what a heartache it can be to lose something so special....

why the wait (don't be shy to mention "special order." a wait is a wait): Waiting for the new fall/winter 06-07 line
how long do you think it will be (and why): 6 months. I want one for my christmas present!! how do you feel about that: I'm not thrilled about the shawls they have right now... not into the whole native american theme or the flower petal theme...
