Well at least he won’t be wooing a shop girl to get you a bag.

Omg you're too funny
It's true though. I love the chase.
Do you shop in different stores in different cities to maximize the number of associates who are keeping an eye out for stuff on your wish list? Is that a thing? This is so out of my league, but now I am curious.
No sweet baby because there is not an actual shortage of Birkin bags. This is just a game.
+1. You know if they need an extra one they just wake up an 8 year old in Bangladesh and give her $4 to put a new one together, right?
At least they’re giving her time and a half for the extra bag

I think I’m missing some key element — please help me understand this. If there’s no real shortage, and the goal isn’t actually to “just” get the bag you want. Is the game to “earn” the bag by embodying a Hermès ideal so they’ll offer it to you, thereby anointing you? (Zero snark here, I’m just fascinated.)
I’m now down the rabbit hole. It seems they will apparently deem you worthy of receiving one.
Purseblog has cases of people with no purchase history receiving a wish listed Birkin within 18 months.

That part of the video where she said she got rid of the bag because she thought she looked fat and didn't want people looking at her made me glad I'm not a part of this world.

It’s not the gluttony that bothers me, it’s the people tap dancing for no reason.

I don’t want a birkin or Kelly, but I bought an Evelyne by stalking the website until the one I wanted showed up.
