[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DH bought me one. He played the Hermes game and Birkin was his second QB bag offer. It was quicker than he expected.   He also got me a Kelly about a year later.  I prefer to the Kelly.[/quote]

What’s the game?[/quote]

You buy work with the same SA and develop “a relationship” ie  spend money.  You develop a wish list. When something  on your wish list or similar becomes available and if you “qualify”based on spend level and relationship, you SA will offer you the bag. Hence the term QB, qualifying bag.  These are bags that don't go on the floor for general consumption, Birkins, Kelly etc.

There are other nuances and other paths but this is the general simple overview.

I think if men go in to buy for their wives they probably get to just buy the bag. [/quote]

+1 I mean, there's still a waiting list, but men don't have to play the game. Make sure he's dressed well and buys something for himself, too.[/quote]

A friend's husband was in New York for work about ten years ago. He went in and they tried to play the game with him and he was like just get me the bag and they did. So stupid. [/quote]

I don't understand the point of the game. Are they trying to pretend these bags are a scarce commodity that only very special people are allowed to buy? Or is it not pretending? I don't get it.[/quote]

Yes. They pretend you’re not worthy of owning  one or you can’t afford it or don’t belong on the store just to make you feel like you have to prove yourself by buying it.

People, abusive sales people don’t deserve your money.  Hermes is one of the rudest stores but many of them are rude. [/quote]
