Scared to visit a Hermes shop
I realize it sounds stupid, but i heard so many stories about people being treated badly in luxury shops and especially Hermes. It keeps being repeated how they want clients who suits their brand, and then its me. I’m very sick, and won’t get better. I don’t leave the house much and sad to say but shopping gives me joy and i like having nice things to look at even if its just in my house.
2024 i got stuck on Hermes, i bought a lot of small stuff and 3 Picotins just in the past months because i loved them so much. I buy from the website or private sellers. I would also like to enjoy the experience of buying from the store and establishing a connection with a SA.
I just don’t think i fit the profile, because i’m in a wheelchair. I’m so used to people talking over my head about me directly to my partner even though i’m fully capable in every way except walking. People, most in customer service jobs actually - just assume i’m not capable to speak for myself and i feel so looked down on every time when they start talking like i’m not even there.
Nearest store is in Stockholm and we’re going there soon. I really would like to go and shop in the store, but the anxiety in my head has me so worried. I’m afraid of having a bad experience and i don’t want to leave the store sad and feel worse about myself when it’s something i’ve been so excited to do.
Am i overthinking and there is nothing to be nervous about? Has anyone else felt like this?
