When you buy two birkins in one week. And, you buy one through a reseller on layaway, not because you can't pay for it, but rather because You've bought too much H and don't want DH to have a cow. This way, purchases are spread out.

Exactly !
I've not heard anyone, on here, use this expression before, excellent, I use it often :p
Such a clever ploy Eb :D
 
Oh now I am set. I can wear a bracelet: What would Anfang do? And then, know I was chasing up the right tree.....

I do have to think about the sewing together....wrong shape I think.....more later on that one...
I agree, sparklelisab, it IS a wrong shape! Much better wearing them just as is! :D

You know you're addicted when it's Christmas and your kids are playing with their toys and you are here ON THIS THREAD.
That could have been ME yesterday! Only the connexion crash prevented me to do so!!! :laugh:

Vigee, maybe we need 12 step meetings and sponsors? Although I can just see it, Lisa as my sponsor and I'd call her from my bathroom and whisper, "Lisa, I'm so so close to pushing BIN on that barenia Birkin on ebay - please help me…" and she'd say, "Take a deep breath and text me your Paypal password-- I will do it for you."

Uh OH! Then I am in trouble too! Think I will need to sign up For H 12 step meetings too! Happy Holidays everyone!!:p
Ladies, :rofl::rofl:

I completely agree with you on this one! Trying to appear sane to DH with H purchases -- this might be the most important reason of all!!!
 
No joke- I woke up at 3am worrying about about my color specifications and whether or not I was clear enough!

That happened to me the other night.... I am on the inofficial wish list for a Constance, and I think I might have been too specific in terms of leather and color.... And now some other customer will get the C that should have been mine only because I said I wanted a warm color. TBH I would take ANY color...... And no one out there will understand... :laugh:
 
When your husbands looks on the Hermes website and says "£4000+ for a handbag! That's insane!" Erm...clearly I do a good job of making sure 1) he never sees the receipts 2) never finds out the price...all my purchases have been 'bargains' from eBay....ahem;-)

LOL! I never thought of layaway. Hmmmmmmm....might need to check out some recommended resellers.
 
Does anyone else here have dreams about Hermes or am I just totally losing it? :laugh:

I thought this may be the appropriate thread to share this. As background, I've been considering buying an Evelyne, as was trying on a couple at my local store a few days ago to get a feel for size and color. My SA brought out a Rouge Garrance GM, and while I prefer the PM size, the color was fabulous. I've been wanting Blue Sapphire, but seeing RG made my brain start doing the how-do-I-decide-which-color Hermes cartwheels so many of us are familiar with. :p

I went to bed last night turning this one over in my brain, and at some point had the following dream: I was wandering around a local consignment store with my new RG Evelyne over my shoulder, and at one point I thought, Wow, this bag is so comfortable and easy to use. I looked down to admire my bag, only to see that it wasn't an Evelyne, it was a BOLIDE! I had a momentary flash of being thrilled, then mortified because I didn't have nearly enough money saved up for a Bolide and was wondering how this happened! :laugh: Then I woke up.

Needless to say, I am now completely obsessed with the idea of a RG Bolide. Sigh. I have officially lost it!

Great story! No, I have never had a dream about H ~ at least that's 8 hours a day that I don't think about it ~ just kidding, but I probably spend way too much time on the subject!
