Question:
Do I have to buy fine jewelry to be offered a quota bag at Hermes?
Dear Little and Sparkly,
The short answer is no you do not have to buy fine jewelry to get offered a quota bag. Although every Hermès boutique is run a little differently, unless your SA tells you specifically what you might consider buying (which is unlikely to happen), then you should only buy what you love and will use, or can give as gifts to family or friends.
The idea is to have an enjoyable experience shopping the brand, learning about the brand, appreciating the brand, and finding the things within the brand that speak to you and your lifestyle. You may not be a jewelry person but you love shoes. Then enjoy the shoe department. There are many choices.
Or you may enjoy the home goods department and wish to purchase an Avalon blanket or a tea set for your home. You should explore all areas of the store including the ready to wear, the small leather goods, make-up and skincare, silks, and non-quota leather bags. Hermes has a lot to offer in addition to its coveted quota bags.
Happy Shopping!
