I am not in London. The thing is when i know it is open in the morning, when i arrive there, the list may close ~Is it just for people in london ~my god~is that mean i have no chance to get myself into list？

Can someone explain the London wait list to me??? I don't understand. Does it mean until the wait list is opened, no one can place a special order?

I just rang my SA at H Sloane Street today and it is definitely not this week. He said to try ringing on Monday. My understanding is that I can then place a special order for my dream bag 30 cm red garrance togo GHW. He said I then have to wait up to 9 months. Just in time for Xmas I am thinking.

If I understand it right there are no special orders in the list that is invitation only. When the list opens its for the orders that the store placed at the Podium - where they placed orders for x numbers of bags in different colors and hardwares and they are then on first come first serve basis on the list when it opens.

Hi Ladyhermes, Does that mean I can buy on the day when the list opens? ie pick from a selection they have ordered already. What is the podium? My SA said that by going on the list I could pick whatever bag I wanted rather than coming in for a cancellation. I'm confused.

now i am confused...i just want to order a 35 gold togo~what should i do to get myself into list? I am not a vip or something~

 

[ladyhermes]

UFC, you can pick what every you want from what they have bought and they have on the list(as long as there still is one available in a specific combination). So yes the bag you pick from the list will come to you and you will not have to come in for cancellations. However it does not mean that they have the bag in the store you still have to wait for it to come in. I hope this clears some of your confusion.

this thread might give some more information regarding the list (am not sure since I can't fully remember what was discussed)

 

[christinahong54]

Thank you Ladyhermes for the thread and your clarification. I am working Monday so am hoping the list opens any day next week but Monday.
Christinahong, yes, you do have to be in London at the H boutique the morning the list opens to put your name down as it closes by lunch and last year I heard the queue was sooooooooooooo long outside the H Bond St because word got out early. It means coming in to London very shortly. I hear that it is easier to get a bag at FSH or NYC.
