Unlocking an Hermes Kelly Bag

So we've all heard the rumor of a giant waiting list for any Hermes bag, but what's the truth. I went into the Hermes store in search of answers. How many people are on this list? How does it work? etc. etc. Well it turns out, the buyer ready to set down a few thousand dollars chooses everything from size to leather to color of the bag writes it down on a sheet with their Name Address and Phone Number and when said bag enters their local store they are called and can claim their bag. Well apparently the list is kept hush hush as well as its contents. The very nice salesman I spoke with said that they aren't even allowed to talk about their bags over the phone.

So hush hush, I probably wasn't even supposed to tell you.
