Three Weeks? I Could've Bought 18 Birkins in Three Weeks!

In Today's "The Business Times" (AsiaOne) Debbie Yong writes about Valentine's Day and Concierge Services, specifically mentioning LesConcierges and Quintessentially Lifestyles (among others).

From Quintessentially Lifestyles website/ About:
"Buenos Aires to Beirut, New Delhi to New York, Moscow to Milan, and in destinations as diverse and far-flung as Maputo, Istanbul, Shanghai and Seoul, Quintessentially Lifestyle is the only service to offer the ultimate in insider, specialist and localised knowledge on a truly global scale. With over 2000 Lifestyle Managers speaking over 35 languages between them, Quintessentially Lifestyle is a multilingual brand providing global reach yet local service."

 In The Business Times Ms Yong goes on to write:
 "Quintessentially's team once sourced a black crocodile Hermes Birkin bag worth $82,000 for a client, cutting its three-year waiting list to just three weeks."

"Some concierge services such as Quintessentially charge an annual membership fee of $7,700 for unlimited requests..."
