Yes, we had a 3 % increase about a month ago, so I don´t think an increase in August is gonna affect here.

I rang up Louis Vuitton Australia earlier today and found out they recently raised the prices 2 weeks ago!

Which was funny (funny not haha..but funny hmmm...) because when I rang in June, the lady told me that they just had an increase in prices in April!!

Brutal, just brutal. I'm just glad that the next next increase won't occur till December. Gotta grab as much as I can in Nov. before it racks up again. Oh boy.

The increase of 3-5% isn't enough to make me run out and buy bags for that reason.

I did bought a lot in July for my upcoming trip so, I don't see buying anything else until Sept for my bday.

So if you are concern with paying the extra money, I would suggest buying now and being safe.

Do you think it will be on August 1st???

I'm taking an exam on Aug. 1st... and if I PASS (which I will! *knock on wood* ) I will treat myself to a LV wallet.

BUT... i can't do this until after Aug. 1st.

So the price CANNOT increase on Aug. 1st.

*sigh*..... so will it increase on that day???? anyone/?

It is most likely soon. I asked the SA at Rodeo and she said it was likely and soon, but she couldn't (not allowed probably) to give me the answer, so just pointed me in the right direction.

so i just called my SA here in california and she's been great and honest w/me in the past. very helpful. well i asked her of a price increase because she knows i'm gearing up to buy my multicolor mc speedy 30 on my bday next month, she told me that she hasn't heard of a price increase but if she does she'll make a note to call me. so that was today and august 1st is just a day away!!!!!
so let's hope it's september then and not now!?

When I asked recently, my SA didn't know and hadn't heard anything as of yet. Usually she is pretty honest so I am crossing my fingers the increase doesn't happen soon...but I guess we'll only know when August 1 rolls around but to be honest an increase won't stop me from buying bags (unfortunately).
