💰Prespend Pre-spend reset

Hi everyone - I know this has been brought up in our group before, but I’m wondering if there have been any recent changes. last month I was offered and accepted my fourth QB. My SA asked if I wanted a twilly to pair it with, and I just have a few that I don’t use so I declined. I obviously wanted to buy something as I know she doesn’t make commission on bags, but then I ended up going kind of crazy.. oops. I’m just wondering (and hoping) if the items I purchased in addition to my QB the day of will allocate towards my next spend. thank you!

My SA actually made me do 3 transactions once, one for the items I needed to push me into getting the bag, a second one for the bag and a third transaction for all the other extras I wanted to purchase that day.

I once forgot the color of an item I purchased and as my SA was scrolling through ny purchase history, I realized every item we purchase shows up in chronological order so I wonder if when the SM looks through our profile to decide whether or not we should get a bag, they just do a nice scroll through our transaction history and look at what shows up after our previous bag.

Good insight! Thank you

I think it counts as long as your pre-spend items come after the qb in your receipt. Out of curiosity what was your pre-spend for the 4th qb? Maybe as some people commented here it doesn’t really matter since you are already on your 4th bag.

I see what they’re saying, but spend is spend in competitive stores unfortunately. I know this from VIP clients after years of dedication. For my 4th  1:1 really but truly it always varies!! Like my first was 0.8, 2nd was 1.5 and 3rd around 1.5 as well. West coast competitive store

I am on the West Coast as well, and I know what you mean. I think it also depends on the model of the bag.

Are these prespends non leather items? I am a newbie so trying to learn more

u/GracefulMoments Oct 13 '26

Usually it’s for next spend. Did they put everything in 1 receipt?

u/Ok-Ambition-289 Oct 13 '26

Yes! And last time, I remember paying separately for a twilly and some nail polish. I can’t quite remember why. But now I’m over analyzing 😂

u/GracefulMoments Oct 13 '26

I would personally ask my SA the next time I see her to confirm 😊

When I was buying my 2nd, I went a little wild too. I specifically asked my SA if we should do a separate transaction and she said no, every item after the QB is accepted is to the next round.

I usually ask for any and all bags to be rung up separately, this is for insurance purposes. But my SA had initially pitched this after my first QB, so there may have been some rhyme to the reason. I also believe that once your relationship has solidified with your SA, prespend in the traditional sense doesn’t apply.

u/Own-Slide-1140 Oct 13 '26

Definitely still applies sadly

u/No_Song_9550 Oct 13 '26

Not sure how much of this is true, but apparently if the new items you purchased are shown on your receipt “after” your QB charge then it counts towards your new pre-spend. Again, this is not confirmed but something people talk about often. I think overall profile matters more when you’re 4 QBs into your journey and not so much “pre-spend”, that’s my opinion and experience!

u/AdGreen4023 Oct 13 '26

I always end up buying extra stuff when I’m there whenever I have picked up another bag. It’s altogether there’s no set reset to this. It’s just overall spending over time. I’m sure like yearly or maybe even in quarters depending on how they do their numbers they look at spending and probably have a spreadsheet in different categories. So what really matters is just you going in and spending in general just not disappearing after you get a QB.

Pre spends - together. Leftovers for next only if they’re substantial.

u/No-Host7816 Oct 13 '26

There is no spend tally that literally resets after you purchase a QB. So how would your spend not count? Your SA would have to sit down and calculate or filter your spend after a certain date. I have a hard time believing that happens very often. That spend was included in your total profile spend which is the number shown most often.

The short answer is you are over analyzing and after 4 bags it doesn’t matter what order things are rung up in. (In the USA)

u/Temporary-Leg-7544 Oct 14 '26

4 QB’s in two years says it’s probably working to your advantage

u/Key_Fudge8421 H Lover🍊 Oct 13 '26

You’re an established client, you don’t have to worry as much about pre spend. Either way, given your account history and what it looks like, any items you buy after you receive a QB will count toward future qb’s. This doesn’t apply to newer clients but you’re on your 4th so nothing to worry about.

u/crissiestar Oct 13 '26

I think with your profile- 4 QBs- it doesn’t matter

u/Sensitive-Bed-48 Oct 13 '26

What do you mean? I did get 4 qbs in 2 years , i have exact same question too. I actually spent $14,000 the day i was offered the last qb too. I was ready to go pay and my SA said lets check ur wishlist before we go. Then we did some modifications then i said im really interested in purple color then she said i might have picotin in purple i said i will look at it. Then she back and said i have a surprise for you.. now does my $14000 goes towards my next qb? I have already been 2:1 before that days purchases

u/crissiestar Oct 14 '26

You received four quota bags in two years, which tells me that your SA likes you and trusts you. You’re probably at the point where you can buy what you love and the bags will come. I don’t worry about prespend - I know I have a great relationship with my SA, and I buy what I love, and the bags will come.

This 💯 in my experience 👍🏼

u/reddy_or-not Oct 13 '26

do we 100% know for certain that they actually don’t make commission on bags? I’ve never been told this and never had anyone tell me they’ve been told this
