This is not directed specifically at you but rather all of us who played this game at one time or another…. When we audibly verbalize the hoops we jumped through to have the "opportunity" to GIVE HERMES tens of thousands of dollars for a B/K we sound as though we’re in a toxic relationship! I broke up with Hermes a while back and I’m happy to see so many KZread videos lately of other ladies and gentlemen also breaking free. It was ridiculous enough when we had to run into H every week to pick up something… anything… so that we didn’t lose points with our SA. It’s now totally insane to allow H to dictate to us what we need to buy in order to hopefully get offered a B/K. I now enjoy the H bags I have and no longer covet new colors, sizes, etc.

Hi late to these but watching loads of this type of content atm. Fascinating marketing. I tched one lady who was treated badly by H in Oz. As I watched the video it gave me vibes of abusive bf and then she gets dumped by H, poor lady she didn’t even know what she did wrong it gave me such manipulative abusive vibes I was just shocked.

I'd just go to Japan for Hermes, it's more expensive but it's worth the time and annoyance being treated like a beggar for a bag. Japan is in another level, Hermes can't implement their unethical sales strategy there, very contradictory to their culture where customer is a king, there's no looking poor or rich, customer is customer 🙂

Will wear it. I wish they would make this bag in a variety of pinks (i.e. sakura pink). There are actually many options to choose from

I am sorry, but i would NEVER play this ridiculous game with Hermes. I bought my bracelets, belts and scarves and that was it. Bought online and made no paper trail or connected with an SA. I have the most amazing reseller here in the states, and purchased my Birkin a month ago. it is beyond gorgeous. Its better than getting one at the store. It didn't come with a rude, self-entitled SA who thinks the sun rises and sets with them because they "offered" you a bag. Come on people....stop buying into this game with Hermes and maybe this stupid practice will stop. Honestly.......you don't need to spend money to spend money at a store.

If you really want a Hermès Birkin or Kelly bag, you’ll be much better off financially in the long run by buying in the secondary market.

I have been looking at a few videos about this subject and it has just hit me what a genius marketing ploy they have! It seems to me they do not want to sell the bags, they create a demand for the bags with the rarity and how hard they are to get, so that you buy "Other items" in order to be allowed to buy a bag, but in fact it is the "Other Items" that they really want to sell, I mean, if there was no such thing as a Kelly or a Birkin, would you seriously buy a $200. sushi plate???? I think not !

Without wishing to sound rude, why on earth would anyone spend thousands of pounds on pieces they don't really want in order to try to curry favour with an SA in the hope that they MAY be offered a bag?! I'm a luxury bag lover myself and am currently looking into buying an Hermes bag preloved. My attitude is that if you really want the actual bag then just purchase it preloved. That way you won't be falling for the sales pitch (as that is clearly all it is) from Hermes that makes you spend thousands on stuff you don't want for an undefined time. I'm the customer, I want the bag therefore I'll buy it. Paying a premium preloved for a still brand new bag is still way cheaper (and less humiliating) than dancing to any brands sales tune.

Have you been offered a bag?

After viewing your video I feel incredibly fortunate that the purchase of my Kelly bag involved no drama nor sucking up to an SA. My husband had whisked me off to Chicago to celebrate our 25th anniversary. We were supposed to be in Paris, but cancelled as 9/11 had just occurred, yes this was 2001. Our main stop was the Hermès store for a new scarf when I spied a black Kelly bag in a case. I asked the SA how in the world did they get that bag as when I was in Paris, the Hermès store there didn't have a black Kelly. She said it was a fluke and that there were several women wanting the bag. I retorted, 'of course they would, who wouldn't??' We had a short wait to pay for our scarf purchase and the SA was incredibly nice. I asked if I could see the Kelly and she said 'of course'. It was the stuff dreams are made of, I never dreamed I'd end up owning it. I thanked her and she put it back and we paid for my scarf. At lunch my husband kept asking me what was my fascination with the bag, I said it was just a feeling and something that I'd always wanted, but never dreamt I'd get. When we got into the taxi to take us to the airport my husband talked over me and told him to go to the Hermès store. The bag was still there, and it's mine. Happy endings do happen!

Wow what an incredible story!!!

Don’t buy anything else. Just come to the store and ask to talk to the store manager and he/she will find you a new SA. Be precise and tell her what you want, not other bags or items you might or might not like. If you want a b25 or b30 first, Say so and narrow down to 3 colors. Don’t ask for a picotin if you want a birkin. Most of the managers are really nice, they will listen and help you. I only like birkin and Kelly and that all I bought and I also have a mini Constance because I think it’s ok. I don’t like other bags from Hermes at all and I’m not gonna waste my money on them. My advice: buy only what you like. Be precise about which bag you want and stick to it. Don’t afraid to say no on offer that you don’t like because it’s silly.

I am an established customer at a very competitive boutique. I am regulary offered quota bags but I have noticed that this year has been especially competitive for everyone. At my boutique, bags don't really count towards prespend so your Picotin and KTG would not really count towards a quota bag offer and new customers spend between 2:1 to 3:1 before they are offered their first quota bag. Enjoy what you have; they are beautiful!

Thank you for this, because I thought the same. She should speak to the manager. The SA is not the end of the business relationship she cultivated with the brand.

I had a wonderful SA of 3 years in which every 6 months I was offered K or B. I got 2 Ks and 1 B from her. I did have to spend to keep getting although the ratio was not bad. Initially it was 1:1 but then it is like 0.2-0.5 to 1. She retired and now I am referred to another SA. Btw both are titled sales supervisor. I do find that it is a bit harder to get quota bags since the pandemic started. They are probably expected spending over 1:1 and in certain categories now. I have not been offered any bags the past 2 years as my spend has not reached that bar. The good thing is I can still request certain bag style with the new SA, and she literally will tell me all the colors and leathers in store or will be shipped in and then I pick the exact one I want. They did that with my K and B in the past. Basically it’s a numbers game you buy enough they will offer you regardless of the SA. You should just find a new SA at the store and keep going if you want a bag from store. The low inventory and higher spend bar is making me consider preloved market these days.

You can find a luxury buyer who can obtain items for you and you don't have to jump through hoops. This is a common practice for many who live in countries that don't have Hermes boutiques. Don't buy things you don't want or need. Simply go with a buyer who has a solid reputation. Naturally they will charge a fee but at least you are getting what you want. Alternatively you can also try Tokyo, Japan and Riyadh, Saudi Arabia boutiques. My experience in these countries is that a SA cannot be rude to a potential buyer due to the social culture, and their stock is quite substantial.

I feel you. Spent so much, more than 2:1 ratio and until now no bags still but some SA has birkin and kelly for those who doesnt buy that much. That is weird so i am disappointed and doesn’t want to go in the store anymore. It is unfair and really a bad game to play. 😅

Of course, that's whay's wrong with it and borders on scamming and extorsion: you're giving them all the money they ask for, untill they're satisgied and STILL you have no guarantee that you'll be offered a purchase, because they have their own private list. Oh and don't forget that SAs compete with each other and your SA might be the one who's not getting any bags, but meanwhile, he/she doesn't tell you the truth and keeps pushing you to spend in other stuff.

Hi dear. Really sorry to hear your story and I can understand your frustration. Also wanted to say that Hermes experience are different in different countries and continents. Some people are very lucky and some unfortunately not so lucky. I live in London and I was always told it’s impossible to get Birkins & Kelly’s here as they get offered to high profile clients. So I did what I rarely see people do. As my SA’s were the normal snotty types (lol) I directly made contacts with the store managers and made my thoughts and wishes clear to him/her. I directly asked questions on how things work and wanted honest opinion on the Hermes games etc. I was told that there was no game and it’s your interest & love in the fashion house and relationship you build. But No games of you needing to spend X amount. I only bought 3/4 items after I put in my wish list and within 3 months was offered a birkin 30 in Noir. Also your purchase history is always there is doesn’t disappear with SA’s leaving. It’s on their Hermes system. My advise will be speak to the store manager explain your situation and tell them ur interest. I am sure you’ll get your dream bag soon. Take care and all the best! ❤

But that's in UK, the system is different there. In Australia, US, Canada, and other Asian countries, the system is more competitive, and purchase history matters. If you ask any Hermes SA whether there is a game, of course they will say there is no game. Tgey will never admit that.

I have so many items on my wishlist from many different brands including jewelry. So, I need to pace myself and buy what I truly love only. If you go on the purse forum there are many who say it’s best not to try too hard. They believe that SA’s see through that and it may work not in your favor. I agree.

I am only explaining my point of view on this matter. I believe that Hermes doing this to trick people to buy more of many things that they don't need or like. The only nice bags they have are the berkin and the kelly and the other bags people won't even think about buying them if they didn't have this policy. I am against Hermes and what they're doing to trick their customers to make them buy more.

if you add up the cost of all the items you didn't really want, and then add it to the cost of a kelly or a birkin, if that is comparable to the price of say a brand new on the resell market, it would actually make more sense to get it from the secondary market, as you're guaranteed to get the bag as long as you pay. In the former, there's always the chance that you keep spending and never get the bag you want, not to mention in the color or hte size you want.

Nobody paying to fly international first class expects to be treated like crap onboard. Nobody paying to stay at a 5-star hotel excepts to be treated like a criminal in the hotel. So, why does Hermès treat their clients like shyte when these customers have been spending a ton of money at their boutiques? You may call it Hermès’ old money attitude/culture/snobbery but Patek Philippe boutiques and their authorized dealers don’t treat their prospective clients (people who are only browsing) like crap, let alone their established clients who have been officially registered owners of PP timepieces.

Also all his "dancing" of not really wanting to mention the bag, but just kind imply so that you don't seem rude or something - jeez, it's so humiliating. Where you went wrong is that you bought pieces you really didn't want to. If all you want from the brand is those stupid overpriced bags, go to the pre-loved market. If you genuinely love the brand, and you "genuine" purchases would amount to the required purchase history, go with another SA. But really if it JUST the bag, don't put yourself through this and go to the preloved market. Or give yourself a nice trip to Paris, and MAYBE you will score something there.

I live in the USA. I have never heard of an SA actually "discussing a wishlist etc". REDICULOUS! I purchased a few clic clac bracelets and a pr of sandals in a HERMES store. I will admit I was carrying a Birkin 35. No SA can intimidate me. It's a STORE! You can shop or not. Do not act thankful that they even look at you or acknowledge you. There is no such thing as a "wishlist "! Either you and your SA hit it off or not. I spent perhaps a thousand dollars and mentioned that in the future I would love a Birkin 35 in gold. No begging nor pleading etc. That was my only remark. The SA went to the back to get the sandals I wanted and he said "Oh they are on sale!" Great. We exchanged pleasantries and I left. In approximately 3 weeks, the SA called and said "I have your Birkin 35 in gold for you to offer!". I was out of town at my daughter's wedding and of course that was quite costly. I told the SA I hated turning down the Birkin but the wedding was so expensive - I had to say no. I also said I hope I will be offered one in the future. The SA said "Of course!". A couple months later I called my SA and told him I would love a black Evelyne (they were so difficult to get at that time). He said we are expecting new stock. Within 2 weeks, the SA called and said I have your Black Evelyne in the store ready for you. I thanked him and said I would come into the store. A few days later I picked it up. So my story is so different than these videos. The concept of a "wishlist " is a myth. Either the SA is going to get your bags or not! Best of luck ❤️
