I've been buying Hermes for years, but I've never returned/exchanged anything. I purchased a swift leather CDC a couple of days ago from a US store, but when I took it home, I realized that I really want to hold out for one in exotic leather. I know I have a month to return it for store credit or exchange, but CDCs have been very hard to find in my area, particularly ones with GHW. I don't want to have a short time to use the credit and be forced to buy something I like even less than the CDC I have now.
So a few questions:
1) How much time do I have to use a store credit if I decide to get one?
2) Is the credit transferrable to another person?
3) Do I have to return the item to the same store I bought it from? Or is any store in the US OK?
4) If I get the store credit, is it good for any Hermes boutique in the US? The world?
5) Are my chances of finding a CDC in exotic leather with GHW pretty much nil? I work very close to a H boutique now and I'll be moving to a city with 2 boutiques close by, so if I check them frequently for the time allotted to use the credit, are my chances good? I was told that H tends to get more stock for the holiday season.
