Does anyone know if there’s a price reduction in the 50th anniversary lapis and rock crystal bracelets? I bought them not long ago so wondering if worth asking for a price adjustment...
I asked my SA and she said my purchase date is not a problem here. However she needs to check for me if she can do the refund because the bracelets are already sold out? I am doubting her reasoning and she hasn’t got back to me for a week already so I am questioning if she has the initiate to help me do the exchange... that’s why I’m asking for help here...!
I was told by my SA that anything purchased before Aug 4th would not be price adjusted. I bought my 5 motif bracelet in July and it was not price adjusted. Hope that helps!
Did you purchase the 50th anniversary 5 mortif bracelets? Thank you!
I bought the lapis alternating and rock crystal. They are the 50th anniversary limited edition.
It’s quitr a common practice that price adjustment would only be applied to items that are still available for purchase. That said, given that you bought two LE items (at premium for he lapis), I truly hope they’d pull some strings for you!

Thank you! I am just not 100% convinced that it’s totally not available for purchase already haha!
Just curious what do you mean by “at premium for the lapis”?
Lol. I share the sentiment when any sales says an item is “totally unavailable”.
Lapis is not an expensive stone and compared to other VCA stone/pave bracelets, lapis comes out at the top.
Hello! Has anybody already got it’s sweet Alhambra watch? My SA called me on Saturday and told me that mine is ready. Tomorrow i’m going to get it at the boutique
Ah I see! I think the lapis is more expensive because it’s alternating with pave. But well, everything at vca is kinda “overpriced”... sigh...
With Lapis and Turquoise, the raw material is not available in the quality VCA requires. The best Lapis comes from Afghanistan and that will be a war zone till kingdom come; and the Sleeping Beauty mine (Turquoise) has been tapped out and is only a copper mine now. So unless new sources are found, gem quality material will be disproportionately expensive for these semi precious stones.
ETA, that’s one of the reasons why I bought the Lapis/Turquoise Bouton D’Or. The combo is breathtaking and material at that quality won’t come around again.
