I have had the same experience at the Rodeo Drive Shop. About five years ago I started my Hermes journey. I purchased a couple of CDC bracelets and asked my wonderful SA if any 40 cm Birkins were available. She asked what color would I be interested in and I said anything neutral and hardware color didn't matter. She said let her check and came back with a 40 cm Noir Togo leather with gold hardware. It was that simple for me. Fast forward five years and now I have 4, 40 cm Birkins in my collection and still have the very same SA!

Viva Las Vegas haha! Good tips again on how to scoring those Birkins, I've heard similar stories with tourist locations - but I still prefer to work with the peeps and build that relationship for a guaranteed offer. I was going to try to score something this June in france, unfortunately my plan is cancelled & im gonna have to take a birkin raincheck for the next time to come.

I love your positive outlook on the resale/preloved market for these bags. I find that bags in “undesirable” sizes seem to actually have lower prices than retail and you can pick whatever color/hardware that you like. I tend to prefer larger bags so you can often find them at great discounts online since mini bags are more popular nowadays. I would love to see a part three on this series. I am saving up to get a preloved Hermès bag (not a B or K though), and it’s great to learn more about the brand as I continue to grow my collection.

Absolutely, I find turning to the resale / preloved market can be a great idea for people who are solely interested in the quota bags and rather spend there money elsewhere.You're absolutely right, you can find larger bags at bargain prices..and more often than not you'll have to spend less money on an even ultra popular (mini) bag from a reseller than how much it'd cost you to boost your profile at the store 🤷🏻♂️🍊

Just two days ago someone posted a KZitem video of a beautiful birkin they bought from a Japanese seller but they mentioned in the video several times that if you are offer a birkin and don't take it you'll never get one again. I of course, I commented it is not true , but she does live in Japan they have a very big Hermes market so things may be different on the island? Have you ever heard any Hermes sales practices like never getting a bag again ext. being different in other countries, besides Paris.🖤

To each their own, right? 🙋🏻♂️ If you're only interested in their quota bags and you rather spend your money elsewhere, it's a great idea to turn to a reliable reseller / personal shopper as you did. In most cases you'll actually save quite a bit. And if you're a fan of the brand as a whole as I am, I'd rather spend my money on their other products and patiently wait until I get a bag offered... because I'd spend my money with them whether or not I get a Birkin / Kelly 🧡

I’m a little intimidated at the moment because it’s appointment only, and worried I may not ‘click’ with my SA. Do you think Hermès will continue appointment only even after the pandemic? Not sure if this is all of the states, it’s the case for the Rodeo Drive store.

I am obsessed with the Kelly mini II. Does it fit an iPhone XS Max? I love the Kelly but I’m not sure if I should get the 20cm or the 25cm. The mini is so cute but I want it to fit my phone lol. Please let me know when you get a chance. Thank you so much! 😊🥰

I always enjoy your videos. The issue I have had is SA follow up. Thought I found a good SA , but that was December and she might not be there any longer due to virus, and my state has not re-opened non-essential stores. I knew an SA that I had a great relationship with, but he left after 6 months.. If the SA I was working with followed up, I would have Oran Sandals, Silver Ring Chain and possibly another CDC. This was 1.5 years ago before I turned the corner on acquiring a B/K. Those bags are not on my 2021 wish list. The point is I like Hermes leather, silver, fine jewels and shoes. The only bag I like enough to buy is Garden Party as I like totes for it daily functionality. The B reminds me of tote in a way as you can fold down the flap and carry open. The K is a princess bag for me. I really wouldn't use it that much as I have Chanel and other bag to wear.

Thank you for tuning in 🙏🏻 Finding the right SA that you enjoy working with is probably the biggest challenge of Hermes. I'd recommend reaching out to them via email or text, as they're technically still working from home and should be able to get back to you relatively fast. You'd be a dream client for any SA, as you'd probably be one of the few who wouldn't "nag" them about getting a Birkin or a Kelly 🍊

Your entire Hermes purchase histroy lives on your profile. No matter where you shop, as long as you're within the same country any store is able to see what you have bought from the brand. However, a boutique'll likely only offer you a bag based on your purchase history if you either bought the majority of the products from them or you moved and they're becoming your new home store 🍊
