Hi Everyone,
Does anyone know if the VCA price increase already happened? I'm a little confused, I called about the mini mother of pearl alhambra studs a month ago and they were $1450, but when I bought them today they were $1600(in nyc)...did the price increase already happen or could they have accidently charged me the wrong price? Let me know your opinion. Thanks so much!

I've been told it will happen 4 April. Not sure why but could that have included sales tax?

sorry, i forgot to say before that both of these prices were pre-tax

I think in the UK and Europe at least there was a "price adjustment" in February due to currency exchange rates. Not sure why there would have been one in the US. Are you sure you weren't quoted for a different material?

My SA in Canada said she thought "around April 1st" there would be a 10% price increase, yes. It was definitely imminent but I don't think she had an ACTUAL date. I think it happens every year around this time.
