The “connection” is usually just with a sales associate (retail employee in store) who feels like offering to sell you one at any random Hermes store, which isn’t a particularly “impossible” connection to acquire. There’s a lot of things that can be done to increase the chances as well including but not limited to:

- send in your husband/boyfriend

- buy a lot of Hermes products from the same SA

- claim it’s your birthday or that you’re expecting (harder to pull of nowadays since it’s done often)

- visit a store in France

The difficult part is being able to get it in the size/color/hardware you want since they don’t necessarily have what you want in stock or have for whatever reason decided to not show it to you as an option.
