I am really interested in seeing what the increase will be. When I went there this past weekend, the love had a sticker on it that said $6600.00. The SA told me this would be the increased price. If that is true, it only amounts to 4% doing the math. Based on their past increase increments I don't know how this could be true. I hope they are not sneaky enough to change the sticker to entice people to buy when they don't know the true increment. Not that it would have caught me, I had already made my decision. But still...and then I think that if it is only going to $6600.00...maybe I can get another before the next price increase.
That's just awful. Why would they even have a sticker on there, when it is evident that the increase is on Monday. I just don't understand. From my knowledge, it will be a 10% increase. They're just so secretive with everything, it's ridiculous.
I bet that is the correct increased price. My SA at the Atlanta Cartier called me 2 weeks ago to tell me the date for the increase & he said he was expecting it to be from 4-6%. You should totally get another one before the next increase. I got my first YG love bracelet last April. I have been obsessing about a second ever since so my husband said he would get me another if I could save the money. I have the money now & my husband knows about the increase so I think he is getting it for me for Mother's Day. I still feel kind of guilty spending that much money on a bracelet. The practical side of me kicks in but then I think that soon it will just be cost prohibitive so it's now or never
I know, what is all the secrecy about. At this price point, you would think it would be better to have more transparency and not less.

Yea, so most likely I will be paying the $6600.00. I do agree with you on pricing, once it goes above 7k before taxes, I am out and probably won't bother. I just got the first and want another too, gotta save though.
Yeah, it's crazy! And, I do agree with you...once it goes up to 7K after taxes, it's a big NO-NO!
You guys are so lucky. It is over $7k here in Oz! That wouldn't have stop me though if I could wear it 24/7, but I can't due to my job. And the price increase is only 4-6% not what they were saying at the start. I only know because my SA is able to tell me the price comparison. They are holding back information (and products) so that you pay the higher price, and higher commission for the SA's.
I'm 16 and planning on getting the yellow gold love bracelet and ring. Any thoughts? Should I wait a few years or should I get it before price increase
That would be up to you and your parents. I think 16 is awfully toooo young to get something so expensive personally. I was very spoiled when I was young but my parents also taught me the concept of money so I though a Tiffany's $200 bracelet was crazy expensive. However, I don't your situation so if your parents are keen then why not but I think it is a conversation to have with them. If you are thinking of buying it for yourself with your own money, then I would 100% wait. Save the money for college and your gap year
Age is not really a factor to me but the symbol is. The whole point behind the love bracelet is that it is a symbol of love. If your parents buy it for you and give it to you as a graduation present would be so sweet. Just to buy it for yourself? It's your money of course but it loses the symbolism of the piece. Maybe consider something from VCA? Just another perspective but the growing prices is something to factor of course! Don't forget you can also get it from reputable resellers to save a little extra money.
The love bracelet would be a gift from my grandmother, it was hers. And the ring was a sweet 16 present from my parents
Wow so you are getting a old love from your grandmother and your parents are buying you the ring. I think this is perfect, so amazing. I wish to do the same for my daughter and hopefully granddaughter one day. Better to spend on something that appreciates or doesn't lose value than buying other useless crap that goes out of style and becomes worthless. So anyways I think it's great to get the fine jewelry however I would expect my daughter not buy other crap jewelry then I feel i made the right decision. Kwim
