Anyone here got a birkin/Kelly offer from the boutique? How long did it take you to get your first offer?

I recently started my "journey" but it looks like it will take a while with my preferred color and size 🙃

I’d check consignment stores like the realreal.
Sometimes they do have brand new in box B/K. They will be more costly than directly from Hermes boutiques, but might be cheaper than allllll the things you have to buy from H before you get offered.

I got mine this way, 1 of each K/B/C. Didn’t need to kiss any SA’s ass and wait extended periods of time.

It took me four trips spanned out in four months to get offered my dream bag - a Birkin 25 in noir ostrich. With all the stuff that I purchased it would still be cheaper getting it directly from the store:) The time for you to get offered a b/k depends on the size/ location/ color/ etc. But prepare to spend 1.5 times the cost of the bag to build up your profile.

Do you mind sharing what you purchased, location and name of the SA?

There’s no real formula unfortunately. It depends on the SA and store. Highly recommend Hermès unboxing videos to get detailed stories.

Interested in everyone’s opinions on replica luxury. I ask because, as noted in the previous thread re: Chanel’s price increases, the quality of authentic luxury bags is going way down while the price increases consistently. Specifically Chanel and LV. I’m fascinated in the online rep community and it looks like rep quality has increased exponentially (with genuine materials and 1:1 markings, stitching, hardware, etc). What’s your argument for or against replicas?
