Did you wait in line for two and a half hours yesterday to get into the Hermès sale at the Metropolitan Pavilion? If so, congratulations on your fortitude! Now might be a good time to step away from the computer and go admire the things you bought.

Whew. OK, now that yesterday's line-waiters are gone, here's the news we feel bad about telling them: Today's wait is really short. Like, half an hour long at most. When we stopped by just now there were maybe 30 people there—you could definitely make a lunch-break run for it. If you do, drop us a line and let us know what's left inside.
