I feel like this counts as a ‘latest purchase’ because nothing in Hermes is ever free, right? [emoji14]Got them a few days ago in Asia. Still sealed, just like how I like my orange boxes. Very discreet as usual when handing me this package. View attachment 4634566
I got one of these in Honolulu - afraid to open it - I find oragami difficult ! Good look- show us finished product - it’s sooo cute

I received this yesterday when I visited my store and didn't have a way of carrying discreetly so I was carrying it in my hands (my bag was too small for it) while I was waiting to pay. Some other people (who I learned later were walk-ins) saw it and immediately demanded one too. The SAs (mine and the one helping them) looked at each other, then gave that polite smile that I've now realized must be a frequent expression for them to put on...

I have now personally seen a couple, er, interesting customers just with my sprinkled visits to the store. I used to think that with how easy it is to get information nowadays most people have an idea and research how H works, but I guess not. It makes me gain further appreciation for my SAs & tPF(ers) each time.

I love 'Three Graces' and your colorway. Last year I got my red envelopes literally two days before Chinese New Year. Each store gets them at different times and you also have to ask.

Mine let me know beforehand. So probably really depends on the SA (like lots of other things with H).

But yes, stores totally get these things at different times.

My SA also just mailed out the holiday card to me, and she was joking "yeah it's past the holidays but we literally got them, after the new year so pretend it's still December!". Also told me that sometimes they don't get the new year's ribbons (the ones that will have the year on them, so new ones say "Hermes 2020") until quite a couple months into the year. Just Hermes quirks...like always :no:
