2007 Price Increases

[avandome]

I have actually (shocking I know, ) not bought anything in the last 8 days, but in Dec, one of my SA's said there will be a price increase on NEW stock of about 10%.

^^Ack, 10%!

10%?!!!!! WTH?! Aaaargh, can someone please get me a new job? I'm stuck with no raise for two years on this one and I NEED to be able to afford my habit!!

Don't want to result to Mr. Lau ... I'd get beaten to death for my unconventional thinking ...

I heard February 1st would be an increase, .

That is the date I heard as well, but you know they are starting the increase now and we will really see it by February.

Sorry, ladies. The price increase has already taken effect from 1 Jan (right after christmas, actually). So everything is up 10%!

is it only for the new stock as in K???

TammyD's right, Hermes has already made price adjustments/increase to all the products by now. Everything has gone up about 9% to 11% depending on the product.

This sucks.

I agree, GT. 10% on a $7K bag in regular leather? I don't even want to know about the exotics.......oiy vey........

oh man.. bad bad news!

Well...I have to repeat it again... I mean HAC 28 cm should be cheaper than Birkin 30cm. It(HAC 28cm) was $7100 before tax, which surprised me quite a bit! So, I assume new price for Birkin 30cm in regular leather would be around $7300 pretax...? That means Birkin 30cm in regular leather(like togo or clemance..) would well be around $8000 with tax!!!!!!!!

Shocking, but true!

 

[ladystara]

oh no ;(

 

[umamanikam]

just when i decided to save for a birkin
